    Close up of my Ferrari (a remote controlled car - not one parked outside my house!) which I was lucky enough to receive as a present.
    This is not a great quality image as I struggled with this, probably I've not been practising my photography as much as I should have!
    All comments welcome.

      Good to see Rose but a shame about the focus issues though. It looks like you used a single point focus, I would suggest using an area focus instead located on the front of the car. Use a smaller aperture, perhaps F10 as a start, to increase the depth of field and set the ISO to about 400 to retain the quality. Depending on the light available you may need to mount the camera on a tripod as the exposure time may well be too long for hand held. I think that the 5DIV has a preview button so you can check the depth of field at the F stop you select. This is best done on live view. Hope this helps.
