Pictures from Petit Lemans, a Crap load of images for your pleasure Options

[carr914]

I know Zimms put some up on our (who's going to Petit ?) thread, but I figured I'd start a whole new picture thread. Please anybody else who took some shots add em.

I met up with Jake a couple of times, Rick from Orlando, Peter from CA, Bob of Papa Smurf Fame (thanks for the parts) and a few others.

Lets start with 914 pics

[Zimms]

I use a Canon 20D with a few lenses. Mostly a 300mm F4 prime lens with image stabilization. The static night shots with the light streaks were done using a tripod, remote trigger, 50mm lense, 2-6 second exposure, and the aperature to match.

I used the 300mm with a 2x extender to get the night shots in motion. I was probably 2/3 from turn 8 towards the Mazda bridge. The auto focus will not focus with the 300 and the extender, so I pick a point where I want to get the shot, and focus on it. I shot hand held, and did use the image stabilization on the lens. Then I took a butt load of shots as they came at me. For every 6 shots, I typically got one. @600mm and f8, ISO bumped to 400. The depth of field is almost 0.
