Is the Wolf Spoiler the upper lip on the lower spoiler of the whale tale?
Looks another lovely example on an Escos, and another great pic mate!

Thanks Dan, some pretty nice stuff on there, and it's only going to get bigger
Got a whole load of Donington Pics going up, from the weekly track days, so a few off here might benefit
Appreciate your comments

FastKA: Thanks, glad youy like The S5500 is an SLR style, has the same features in grip etc, the lens has the same zoom as SLR. The quote from a site is
It is just a very good, easy to afford, compact cam.
4 megapixel, 10x optical zoom. That shot was taken from the standing platform of the grandstand, then cropped down, with absolutely NO loss of image quality.
It's a great camera, really enjoying using it at the minute!

Ive got a Mini Pentax (The size of a fag packet)
But the Picture quality isnt that great even though its 5 Mega Pix. This picture was resized so i dont think that helped
Want an SLR really, But is just finding a cheap enough one... (around the £500 Mark) as i only use it for "Fun".

Pentax are good
D-SLR is what you want, but cheapest body you can get is about £500-£600 - then you will definately have add-ons. Ive spent almsot £80 on add-ons for mine, and it's only digital. Lens's, filters, memory, batteries, lenshoods, tri-pod, carriage cases.
All adds up!

Well that's the exact reason I went out for a new cam, I wanted track action shots, images that I could get from being relatively far away from where it was actually happening. My 10x optical zoom helps this incredibly.
As for birds playing up, that's true lol - roll on nxt yrs shows
I'm yet to find out, but if they want a glamour shoot, I'm more than willing

Yea, speeds goes from 15 second exposure in manual mode, up to 1/1000th of a second
Aperture is adjustable too, from f2.8 to f8
f2.8 is to focus on things closeup, with blurry sort of background, lets most light in, and f8 is for focusing everything in the shot, like a team photo, lets less light in.
Has alot of features...some of which im still fidlding with

Altho, the S5600 is out now, 5.1mp, so worth considering that
Cam is about £230

I got my polarizer from Amazon.co.uk - i'll find you the exact product item out and link it to you, I'd highly recommend this for £10 as it brings out the depth of colour in the sun, and reduced glare off shiney object.
got my lens hoods from a camera shop in Watford, where I got the cam from off the net, and got my memory off them also.
