Hi guys, As some of you may know (Matt, mainly), I'm looking at getting a DSLR. After umm-ing and ahh-ing, I think i've finally come down on the Canon 550D twin-lens kit (18-55 + 55-200mm lenses). Now, the thing is this: As I'm new to all of this, I don't really know what all the settings, numbers, words etc mean. I've been reading a lot on dpreview.com to get a feel for things, but I think I'm still missing a lot. Are there any sites you guys would recommend for having a good read of to get an idea for things as to taking good photos? I obviously don't need them to be PERFECT, as it's all just mainly for myself, but any suggestions you guys could make would be awesome Planning to get 16gb SanDisk Extreme III card I think it is, the 30mb/s? Also a Lowepro Flipside 200, extra battery, and some form of UV/CPL filter (although I'm not sure as of yet what CPL actually is...) So yeah.... Hi

seems good.. i'll talk to the missus and see what she reckons

Yeah, in all honesty it'd be hard to get an exemption for that. If both your parents owned V8's and you had no other way, you'd probably get one, but for a Skyline... might be a bit hard to get one.

Best place would probably be NS, given that I'd say a fair few of them own Silvias. Instead of Skylines. Having said that though, all the best getting some parts.

I hear there's an exemption that takes about 3 years to get, you also have to do a few tests too

i hadn't looked at that yet actually.. was wondering what was wrong with that gtr by the thumbnails...

spew. "OMG I HAVE A SKYLINE" as bad as an n14 pulsar that's near me, has a GTR skyline front bar "modified" to fit. and rear stuff too. kinda sickening, it's like just buy one if you want one that bad.

what. the f**k is that second car

shit i did pretty good in morning 2... on that first perfect (for me) run

rep to southern suburbs no matter what everyone else says well... my part anyway

Cause I am a noob And I'll have to try and find what licensing there is on that; it's not available for purchase so I'm not sure what the arrangement is. I'll see as to the game's current status. If I can find a ruling, away we go. If not, if everyone leaves that link alone, no harm no foul. EDIT:: Emailing the relevant people now.

Link ONLY for Eric please, only 10 downloads (and I fully expect only one to happen, and that's him, then it will nuke off the servers in 60 days) http://rapidshare.com/files/417826744/01_-...rings__YES_.mp3

remix it with Adagio for Strings - the version from Homeworld, is accapella. I've got the mp3 if you want it

+1, making friends with nosy old ladies is always the way to go... And yeah, while revenge might feel sweet, if it's not their car, mistaken identity etc... Would suck

Or a stickler for spelling, which isn't so bad. Although I think it might be fiancée?

Fantastic pics by everyone... Saving all as I type

thanks man just thought i'd go uber on the details... cause i can god i hope someone got video of my first run... i know they wouldn't have though

me, it's black, and zip up, black plastic zipper, effekt logo on it. was gonna post about it; realised i was missing it when i got home and went "eh". the back is worn out a bit too cause my bag rubs against it when i walk to work good news andrew, glad you had an awesome day the missus said her head was still spinning at like 7pm... a winner is me

i will plug craved craved craved

it's so true... i was a strapping young lad who treated his car well before this.... pffffthahahah ohh i almost kept a straight face. but yeah, once you pop you can't stop!
