They must have had at least 4 or 5 Cayman S's

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 pics work, and they are really cool 8)

I like the ford GT, and the 996TT

congrat on getting your new camera

thanks for the pics :P

Nice pics

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)

Fleischmann 02-07-2006 06:05 PM

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.

dingo 02-07-2006 07:01 PM

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?

sentra_dude 02-07-2006 10:25 PM

Thanks for the compliments, I love my SLR! :D It's a lot of fun to take pics with. 8)

Thanks TT, I'll try that.

stock it has an 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G Nikkor Lens

Are stock lens usually bad?

stmoritzer 02-08-2006 04:22 AM

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

vakpemil 02-08-2006 09:10 AM

Wauw! 3 exotics @ one house! Nice catch! Then the Porsche's, no words :P every Porsche is nice! :mrgreen: Congrats with you new camera, hope you have fun with it!

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.

P_Zero_Rosso 02-09-2006 04:36 PM

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.

Garretts_turbo 02-09-2006 08:39 PM

nice pics man, if i get a chance i'll have to snap up a few pics of a driveway in my friend's neighborhood; all vintage porsches and benzes.. :lol:
