    Canon Macro Lens

    Holy thread bump, batman !! I'm intrigued by macro lenses... I've got a Tamron 70-300 zoom/macro which was cheap and frankly is brilliant ! Haven't really used the macro function too much though, infact haven't used it at all on purpose anyway. What will these below at £400/£700 do that my...

    Any hints or tips for shooting my car at night?

    @ Revlols: That was a real early attempt in my photography portfolio haha ! Been a loooot more since then but it was only half decent clio photo I have. One of my better ones: Also, F22.6 (apparently!) and it still only gives this 6-lined effect, although they are sharper...

    Any hints or tips for shooting my car at night?

    Long exposure (remote/bulb mode) then point the torch at the car, or at the camera to do this: :star:

    sounds like a scooby engine!

    The 3rd cylinder spark plug hole corrodes/fails often. Water sits in it and causes problems. Whoever installed my HT leads failed spectacularly and put them point to point under the inlet, instead of following the numbers, and the gap for them where they should go. You have to take the inlet...

    sounds like a scooby engine!

    Did someone say Scooby ? Oh hai... :approve: Sounds like the ol' 3rd cyl of death. My Clio did this. Had to helicoil the spark plug hole ! Nerve wrecking or what... PITA to get to the head thanks to that bloomin' inlet though.

    What The Fcuk Is Wrong with the OMP Horn FFS.

    Door speakers sounds crap!

    So you've checked ..? Turn the volume up enough to hear it and move the balance fully left or right, and see if it gets louder/clearer.

    Door speakers sounds crap!

    Polarity issues ? Are they cancelling each other out !?

    Buying a ph1 172 - will I like it?

    Mine had plenty of torque. Would pull happily from 1500RPM in 5th with no struggle. Just needs a set of matched inlets (and preferably a decent s/s exhaust and panel filter). Mine pulled away (just) from my mates ST2 in 2nd .. ;-)
