Went to a Porsche racing meet on Zandvoort saturday before last to try out a bunch of fancy Canon lenses. Didn’t find any time to edit the pictures earlier, so I’m working on that now, just slightly over 400 of to filter through..
Anyhow, have a small preview:
That’s it for now, more will follow later this week in the form of a photodump.

When are you flying to Canada?

I definitely need a dslr seeing your photos. Or at least good editing software but I don’t even have a PC ahaha. But a car is on the no. 1 spot right now so ehh.
Great photos btw.

Dang that looked like some fun! Can’t wait to see what you’ve done with all these fancy lenses...

Don’t know yet, probably a bit later than expected, as some complications arose due to my internship spanning part of two semesters. So probably won’t be flying to Canada until late August or early September.

Sure was fun, not too many cars though, so a lot of doubled photos.

Yeah, definitely first get a car, then a PC or capable notebook and then a DSLR, or at least that was how I did it.
Thanks, the fancy (we’re talking twice the 320Ci you’ve been eyeing fancy) lenses sure helped though.

Just a matter of time as I got the funds and monthly income starting next monday.
The prices of some lenses are eye watering to me but lenses are inevitable. And twice the already pricey Bimmer? Ouch!

Nice, good luck with your job!
Yep prices are terrible sometimes, not always though, recently bought a great (new) lens for just €100. But yeah, these were 100x as expensive as that, I wouldn’t buy those soon myself though. My mental limit for lenses is still in the 3 figure range.

I guess that’s a good way to practice!

Nice! Those are definitely better though, at the event I went to it was mostly privately owned street cars, and a few vintage racers. Later there was a GT3 Cup race, but I had to leave :(

Zandvoort is still pretty cool tho. Very hilly.
