Well done Kev, welcome to the canon club ;D

Oulton Park here you come....Easter Monday for th first round of the British GT Championship!
That’s a good idea :) brothers got me a memory card and camera bag for my birthday and I want to get a tripod next (may if I can decide what I want) geta UWA (ultra wide angle) Lens rather than fish eye and maybe a filter kit

The term don’t run before you can walk comes to mind tho :laugh:

Oulton park sounds like a plan tho as we take the work van of my mate and sit on the roof :lol:

Kev,

Go for a collaspable manfrotto monopod, £13.99 from MyMemory.co.uk, very light and also acts as a hold me up stick in the early hours at LM.

Lens filters are just a few quid, I have a UV filter on both lenses.

Sounds like a good plan!  Might even catch La Famille Muzorewa there as well, I think they attend fairly regularly.
