very good.... but you should airbrush out the dried watermark on the Suzuki logo in the middle photo.  Thats the only blemish I see.

Yeah, the middle image is not the best one but I didn't have anything else to put there. I'm going to try and take a different one that maybe compliments the other two better. I had a nice shot of the engine, but I thought it looked weird with the blues on the outside and the gray on the middle image. I'm also going to be doing one for my father's FZ1 and his ST1100. Stay tuned.

I don't remember right now. I'll get back to you on this when I am back at my laptop.

It's great! So much easier to work with than my old A-1. Since everything I do is digital anyways, this just makes the process that much more streamlined.

Thanks.  What camera were you using?  At anything above ISO 80 or 100 the point and shoots have way too much noise.  Was that taken with the stock lens with the aperature cranked all the way up (manual mode) and automatic time?

Canon EOS Digital Rebel, aka the 300D dSLR. Lens was the standard kit lens, an 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6. I set my f-stop and shutter speed manually.

I've got the same setup.  I'm guessing you already know about the firmware hack.  I haven't bothered with it because I'm not sure I could take advantage of the few additional 10D functions at this stage, like mirror lock or whatever.  I'd probably spring for a telephoto lens first.

I haven't gone with the 10D firmware hack yet, but I'm going to soon, what being free and all. I'll use the mirror lockup for random long-shutter shots since I have the remote and everything. Even if you can't use the functions, it can't hurt to say, "Check this stuff out!"

I want a telephoto lens, but since I just spend a good chunk of change on this package deal I am essentially broke right now. I'm just going to be borrowing my roommate's lenses until I get one of my own.
