    Clio 1.2 Help..

    I would list ideas but i dont think there is any way of making a 5 door look anything other than a shopping car... on a clio. Save your money towards something else and just drive it whilst so... There is a non sport pic thread if you do a search in media, some good ideas in there. Also...

    D3000 Macro?

    Cheers JJ, Just the information i needed, Thinking about the 55-200 between the prime im kind of stumped, Id like more zoom but fixed seems to give good effects to images The 2 AF lenses you've quoted are a bit higher up on what i want to spend at the moment, So i think ill go for the Nikon...

    D3000 Macro?

    Morning chaps... So... After some thought id like a prime lens... I've seen some pictures taken by a fixed focal and they are impressive... Then again, I wouldn't mind having the flexibility of a 55-200mm? but all that would achieve over my 18-55 is more zoom obviously and not focus effect? I...

    D3000 Macro?

    Ive got the cheap Hong Kong close up filters, 2, 4, 8 and 10. I cannot get the hang of them, Ive tried them all and different combinations (strongest closest to lens) And manual focus whatever close up filter and which ever distance i try is still s**t really, may have another try later...

    D3000 Macro?

    Thanks for the reply Revels, I still havent had time to read into fixed lenses and what not, what advantages does this give you? And would i still be able to focus on close ups, i.e. rings, not to fussed about macro quality. I cant focus on things about 5cm away from the camera atm, and...

    front dash only showing the time

    Either the right bulb has gone... is it dim/black on the right? Or most likely your car doesnt have an external temp sensor... After market head unit wont display anything there anyway unless you but an adaptor lead.

    Lowering 1.2 ?

    As long as you don't lower it more than 50mm ish... (some are running -60mm and still standard shocks) you will be fine... Its only when you go really low on springs and keep standard shock absorbers it ruins them over time. No its not true about balding of the tyres, When you lower you need to...

    Door defenders - anyone bought or used them?

    Personal design? "please don't ding my door sir, OH WHAIT YOU CANT" Cant really think of any good situation to use them in, Maybe long term at an airport... but the cars next would be long term as well!
