D200 is a good camera (I have a D300 myself) and 'prime lenses FTW' is always true (as well as 'F8 and be there') no matter the camera ;).JNM (CW)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-41651644330989566402010-05-17T16:48:44.252-04:002010-05-17T16:48:44.252-04:00@ JNM Not quite, an old NIkon D200, a Nikon 300f4...@ JNM Not quite, an old NIkon D200, a Nikon 300f4 (great lens) and a so so 18-35. The video is from a Contour HD. And yes a nice badge (but as good as what the pros get). Remember 90% of taking great event pictures is simply, access... :)<br /><br />@DJNX Not the course workers, but race control. Still, thinking there would be racing for one corner is ludicrous. I keep maintaining the correct "punishment" would have been to just put MS back in 7th and call it a day, but I bet there is no mechanism for that, if he was guilty (he was, clearly) he had to get a drive through.AChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04209280332953683555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-83114878595461619512010-05-17T16:34:45.193-04:002010-05-17T16:34:45.193-04:00Hummm from the quality of the pics (and of the vid...Hummm from the quality of the pics (and of the video) I'm going to guess Canon 5DmkII with a nice lens on one end and someone that knows how to take good pictures on the other end (with a nice badge to get very close to the track).

The mistake I thought was that course workers should have flown yellows, not greens between the last corner and the finish. Shumacher could not do a thing about Alonso the whole race, him getting a 6th on a sneaky move like that would not have been fair. It would have been fair to just keep him in 7th (I WAS SEVENTH!!!!) but I guess the rules don't allow for that?AChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04209280332953683555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-20433851269667590422010-05-17T01:37:58.773-04:002010-05-17T01:37:58.773-04:00Since when overtaking is a dodgy move?

As competitive as ever tried to exploit with Brawn a loophole in the rules. Fair point... the written rules are screwed... What should be done? Reword the rules and leave him in 7th.<br /><br />Funny how now everyone is awakening to the real personality of the Hammy. He just can't contain it anymore...CGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03629683455848978344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-25855780562490722602010-05-16T19:33:18.463-04:002010-05-16T19:33:18.463-04:00Great pics!Great pics!Murphhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15741103709259713250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-92086638908210968722010-05-16T19:16:25.133-04:002010-05-16T19:16:25.133-04:00I think the real problem with the Schumi penalty w...I think the real problem with the Schumi penalty was a badly written FIA rule. Ross Brawns explanation (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQerOq_7DcA" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQerOq_7DcA</a>) sounds perfectly plausible to me. To me its just an F1 team exploiting a loop hole in the rules like when they served a stop-go penalty after the finish at Ferrari.Rahul Nairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09081215040850542343noreply@blogger.com
