I'm quite astounded by how good the IQ of this little compact is. Maybe even better than my Konica A4. It has a 7 point multi-af system and it definitely works well as only one shot on the roll was out of focus.

Indeed, a Black Shadow. It wasn't in the show, some geezer rolled up on it and parked it outside. Those big Triumphs were parked next to it.

I really like the IQ on the Vincent shot too, much better than I expected from a compact camera.

Another cracking series, Ian, and a much higher Brit content gets you extra marks. That camera gives good results and is probably perfect for events like this.

If I had a Vincent I would be scared to leave it parked up in case it disappeared in the back of a van. Even genuine Vincent brake levers go for hundreds of pounds at auctions.

Great to see all the cars too, even a Triumph GT6! Marvellous.

A very well done set, such a nice grouping of classics

Glad you like em. Smile

I had no idea the Vincent was so valuable, there were so many bikes and I didn't shoot even half of them. The two rolls that were no good due to a misaligned rf rendering them all out of focus also spoils what I could have shown you in terms of different cars and bikes. sadly.

Thanks for that link, that's a beautiful bike, but 60 grand!

I'd no idea about Vincent when I snapped the pic, so I learnt something, cheers! Smile
