WARNING...left hand drive content below. :D

I got a new lens (Tokina 12-24) for my camera for Christmas and decided to get some new shots of the E30. This lens is soooo much fun!!!

thanks everyone!

The camber is the way it is (-3.5 degrees) in order to get the wheels to fit. The Toyo T1Rs lasted about 18 months with this setup before needing replacement.

The Camera is a Nikon D70.

I picked up the lens at www.adorama.com. However, I am sure there are places in the UK that carry it as well.

Thanks again!

Awesome car :cool:

Love the wider rear Azev's, gives it really tough stance.

That is such a wicked car.
First reason, It is white!
Second reason, Its clean
Third reason, The wheels
Fourth reason, The suspension is soooooo low & the camber is mad
Fifth reason, The location
Sixth reason, The camera
Seventh reason, Its a two door
Eight reason, Its not mine!!!!

Nice car mate

Nice car. (though the chrome wrongness mixes with the whole negative look of the car)

Great photos.

F4 across the entire zoom range of 12 - 24mm. I had a Sigma 10 - 20 for about a day before I took it back for this thing. The sigma was F4 from 10 - 12mm...but F5.7 above that...if I recall correctly.

im more interested with the lense, do you have metadata for all the picture above. to me most of your picture look distort.

also do you do any pp before posting the picture?

Nice pics mate, the sort of lens that I'm after. Looked at a Tamron lens, IIRC 12-28mm, but too much cash, even in Hong Kong!!


I'll have to wait a while to get one methinks!! Good choice in camera too, I recently upgraded my d50 to a d80, I love it!!!

Keep the pictures coming, wide angle lenses are ace, I wish I had one in Hong Kong!!
