Not on the scale of the old Earls Court shows but not a bad effort, and the Tesla X is something else with 0-60 in 2.9secs!

Apologies for the sparkly lights on the indoor pics, they were real spoilers for the snappers.

Polarising filter, Phil?

(Just a guess, mind)

They had lighting nets strung everywhere so a polarising filter wouldn't have made much difference and the outside shots were simply edited to compensate. A star filter could have produced some pleasing inside effects but I don't have a filter set for the Lumix anyway. The flash was switched off to avoid burnout so I was desperately trying to avoid camera shake having just ridden the F1 sim; ye gods if that's truly representative of an F1 ride the drivers deserve every penny they get.

That Tesla with the gulling back doors....There was one in their showrooms at Cribbs Causeway in Bristol....Had a look and thought that that's a great family car and a tad quirky with those doors....Thought it must have been 75/80k though....Then saw the price and think it was 150kish if my memory serves me right !!!!!!!.....MAy be fast as a b4stard but think what you could get for that money...

Not at all, it's just that the compact camera's not as versatile as an SLR so I have to manage without filters.

Yes Andy, the Tesla starts at c£75k and rapidly heads north of £100K; it's a cracking piece of kit though.
