Picked up a fisheye lens for the digital camera... nice for grabbing wide shots in a tight area and creates some interesting perspectives.

It arrived UPS last night so I had to give it try on the 914... Not bad considering the bad lighting resulting in exposure times of 1.0 sec for the under car shot and about 1/4 second for the car interior shot..

Should be really nice with good lighting.

Note the back of the car only was up on jack stands on their lowest setting!

Dave,
Can you take a closer shot of the lower engine tin (air deflector below the cylinders that connects between the he and case) on the passenger side? I'm looking for this piece and am having a difficult time locating it because I'm not sure what it should look like.

Thanks,

Camera I am using is a Nikon 995. Lens is the Nikon FC-E8 which I picked up from B&H photo on line for $150.

As to the lower engine tin on the passenger side... As it turns out, I could not find that piece either so I just took some sheet metal, made a cut out for oil filter and a few bends in a vice... I fabricated a piece that matched and painted it black.... it looks good and works fine.

I can take a picture tonite if you still want to see it.

With that lens it looks like you have bicycle tires on your car.
