The crispness of your large sensor camera is so nice! I know the quality of the Casio EX-F1 isn't good enough for you ... but IT would be cool to see Slo Mo Clips of these cars. Some people don't realize how FAST they're moving! Wait ... I'm saying shoot Slo Mo ... but show speed ?! :? Anyway ... one day even when we look at a magazine the photos will be embedded video clips.

The Jump Personality Photos were a great idea. Fashion photographer Phillip Halsman thought that when people jumped, their true personality came out ... because they had to concentrate on the jump.
Halsman commented, "When you ask a person to jump, his attention is mostly directed toward the act of jumping and the mask falls so that the real person appears."[5] The photographer developed a philosophy of jump photography, which he called jumpology.[6] He published Philippe Halsman's Jump Book in 1959, which contained a tongue-in-cheek discussion of jumpology and 178 photographs of celebrity jumpers.

The jumps at 300 fps would be cool ...

The RX-8's really look unusually nice.

We think we go through tires!?

As usual ... amazing photos at the Highest Level of Professional Photography! :thumbup:

Make sure you look at Larry's photos towards the end of his link ... later in the afternoon ... the combination of light and smoke is amazing!

ARG ... the photos are getting cropped on my wide screen ... probably even more on a lot of your monitors. :(

Where can one see the videos from all of those cameras mounted on those drift cars?
