On a side note, imageshack is being really slow and sucky in general, has anyone else had that problem? :? As a result some of the pics may not work.

The Ford pic is a great angle :good:

I love the Cayman too - that black is nice, but i prefer a Midnight Blue car 8)

Very nice quality of pictures, but I guess with that camera it's no wonder. BTW...I'm pretty sure that red Porsche is infact a C4S, with an added 996TT spoiler. Look at the red border joining the rearlights.

Yep, the red 996 definately looks like a C4S - but in anycase it looks damn hot, not a common colour at all! :D

Cool to see a Ford GT just parked like that out on the lawn.... :shock:

Thanks. :D

Very nice garage that guy, I like the GT pic ;)

When imageshack is slow, imagevenue is a good option ;)

BTW, what is the stock lense? 18-70?

Nice find, the three cars infront of that house :wink:

The FordGT is sexy!
I like the CaymanS more and more, black is the preferred color IMO

Thanks for the pics :good:

Well, yes, when you consider you can grab a D50 for 600 USD with a lense or a 350D for a little more, again with a lense, and that the really "good" lenses start at 600-800 USD, you can easily tell the stock ones are "cheap". But I always noticed Nikon's one is better than Canon.. I really have to get rid of my 18-55 and buy something better.. since I got the 70-300 IS I try not to use the 18-55 anymore and whenever possible I will use a friend's L lenses because the stock one sucks donkey balls compared to real ones :D

Thats one of the reasons why I'm going with a D50.. It will save me some money initially because I wont want to buy another lense right away... and I will have more money to spend towards a good lense :) I've tried out a Rebel XT with the stock lense and the picture quality is no where near the quality of a D50 shot with it's stock lense.

Nice pics and congrats on the D50.
I don't have any experience on the 18-55DX lens but I'm pretty happy with my 18-70DX lens (except the distortion at 18mm). It is very good value for money.
