Well done Robert.
I knew it was just a question of asking.

Well not so much of asking I was collared by a pit marshal and almost slung out! They agreed to give me a discretionary pass until I get paperwork sorted but the lady who dealt with it didn't see a problem. If the team manager had the insurance with him I would have got a full pass today.

I have had some problems with my use of the D3 today. I can't work out what settings to use for the AF, I have it on continuous but not sure which back setting is best. 3D seems all over the place, what I want is the AF to lock onto the Car as it comes closer, while I am panning very fast, following the car as the car travels across my field of view. Most cases it works but sometimes it doesn't. I have tried several settings but not sure what's best.

Also I am getting confused by the exposure counter. One seems to count up and the other down. But they don't add up to the expected total of exposures from a 32Gb CF card the first card has about 1,000 images on it, the second card has about 375 images and 350 space remaining, about 725 in total, which seems about 275 out?

Both cards are 32Gb and freshly formatted.
