Are there any places around these parts (actually, youre not that far away) where I might be able to go take some MX piccys ? even better if youre there to dish out some advice (so I dont get run over for instance). I fancy using my camera(s) more, like im sure Stu does too - lets have a photo party! haha |
More than happy to.
One fly in the ointment though. Up until three months ago, you could turn up at a track, have a word with the officials, and often as not be allowed trackside. That all changed after a spate of stupid accidents caused by a few people taking silly risks.
ale:
Now, if you want to get track side, you need indemnity insurance (£1M+), personal insurance, proof of intention (What you'll be doing with the pictures), proven track record (known to local officals to be sensible around the track), and last of all, you need to be registered with the governing body and approved.
There is a bright side though :smile:
There are a number of tracks you can actually get close enough to, not to need track access, and still get good results.
Best lens has already been mentioned ( 70-200 f2.8 ) but an excellent alternative is the likes of the Sigma or Tamron 28-300 although you need better light)
Mail me if you want to have a dabble
