I know what you mean. Only way you can take video is with "Liveview"? You probably knew that, did you know the autofocus in Liveview is MORE accurate than it is in Viewfinder mode, although slower? It also is supposed to, according to Nikon, be able to track up to 35 faces at once while filming if it is set to "Face Priority" focus mode. If you can figure out how to make the autofocus work it should take some pretty nice videos. My very limited experience with it is that it keeps changing what it's focused on. Need more practice!

Yes it is a nice '56! LS1/T56, 6/4 piston Wilwood's car No star filter, just a Tiffen UV haze on my new (used) Canon 10-22mm lens.







It's a great driver and pretty quick with the 4:10 gearing. We had a 1-2-3 gear race off the line yesterday and it was pretty close with my 3:31 gearing.....I see 3:73's in my future.

Seriously, your pictures are nice, Scott. The ones I took from riding in CO yesterday are crap by comparison. Biggest thing I need to do is resize mine I think. This thread is inspiration though. Thanks for sharing

So cool to see our flag up there.
