Oulton Park - Britsh Superbikes

[SDK^]

I spent most of today at Outlon Park watching the British Superbikes and other supporting races.
It's the first time I've been to a bike event - The acceleration, speed and bravery of the riders was awesome.

Some photos

Superb shots - sharp, nice and close and good panning. By coincidence one of my pals was there with a Honda team, who come from Scotland I think.

[Dave]

Great shots as always. :)

I can only echo what has already been said.

This was practice wasn't it? I have planned to go tomorrow.

Those shots are just fantastic.

How do you set up the camera for focus and metering for that sort of event? I'm assuming AIServo but are you selecting an off centre focus point or just letting the camera choose?

[KenCo]

As everyone else has said, absolutely stunning shots mate, well done.

[Liberalis]

Stunning shots, love that second one, well done

[matty]

ok i have a quesstion, i tried using ai servo on the 300d for bird shots but it wouldnt keep the focus, was i doing something wrong?

[Matt]

Probably not Matty, its probably down the the 300D/10D being slower than the Newer models at focus lock.

thats ok then, lol, thought it was me!
