very nice rob, whole vehicles dead sharp. Would you mind sharing your settings, I tend to only get one half of the car in focus, I have a feeling it might be my f-stop settings... but knowing yours would indicate my issue ta and i love those shots

Thanks for your comments, if you follow the link to my Flickr site below you will see the settings date for the Seat image. I have the camera set to subject tracking and use single shot.

That V1 sure doew well for a compact, in fact if you posted them up without saying what camera it was I wonder how many would get it right.
Mind you having skill behind the camera helps

I have the 10-30mm and the 30-110mm these were taken with the 30-110mm, still learning the V1 only the third time out!
