You have a good point there Stephen. I think you could buy and race a super motard for less than a Nikon!

Super photo Robert - I would be toyed with the decision to either photograph or actually race ;-)

I think I would rather buy 16 Minolta Z1's than just one Nikon body :-P . I think I could modify a Z1 for a lot less than you pay for some of the high end kit!

Teunis, I realised these action shots are going to need a lot of practice, for reasons I mentioned in my comment to Jeroen. I took over 500 images today, but I think I will need to do another 5000 before I'll be happy!

Robert,

face it: it's time to go for an DSLR.

(At least, that's what my girlfriend is telling me lately, but I can't find the exact right one in the Nikon line-up and they cost, so I have to have it right for a couple of years!)

Jeroen, I set the camera to shoot continuous, which means it can shoot at 1.5 frames a second while you hold the shutter release. The only problem is that the image disappears from the electronic viewfinder most of the time while shooting and you only get a glimpse now and then to check if you are still tracking the subject. I have a lot of chopped off and blank pics! An optical viewfinder is what you need for this. (Is Minolta listening?). Robert

Hi Guido, no he didn't fall, he actually won the race. Here is a picture of him celebrating. These are off-road bikes running on slick tires on a go-kart track! Glad you enjoyed it. Robert

Robert,

I think for an action shot you did very OK. I never tried it myself, but it MUST be hard to track the bike and keep it in focus and that's where your (Linn's) camera comes in place.

Compliments,
Jeroen
