I've had the D30...now have a D60.
I have to admit....there's something "special" about a D30 image. I can't put my finger on it.
Maybe it's the large pixels.
Nice pic

what's with that:
the people in the background are all out of focus
looks like a severe front focus problem
(great shot!)

Mine, too. That's why I plan to keep it until it literally wears out. Next to my 1D, it's one of the finest cameras I've owned.

I was using the 50 1.4 because of low light, so was about 2 1/2 feet from the snake. No glass in between us, except for my lens. Great thing about rattlesnake roundups is you can get up close and personal with the snakes.

I see that your subject was the photographer. He is out of focus
and the color look awful. To bad that bike got in the way and the
D-30 autofocus could have locked on your subject matter.
I hope the 10D with do a better job focusing your subject.

Rather than starting a new thread, I figured this is the perfect place to ask my question.
I'm interested in buying a used D30 as my FIRST DSLR but I'm a bit leery of the shutter lag. Is it a problem or is the timing pretty easy to get down?
I've had a couple dozen phots printed in BMX magazines so I know my timing is decent, I'm just curious if there is a big difference between film and DSLR shutter lag.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

But that's not downhill racing. It's dual slalom, an entirely different ballgame.

If your timing is down with a 35mm, there shouldn't be any problem with a DSLR. Occasionally, it will refuse to shoot if the autofocus is hunting, but I haven't found shutter lag to be an issue. I shot Pentax and Nikon film cameras before. If I have problems with getting the shot, the problem is usually the nut operating the shutter release, if you get my drift.
The 1D with 8 frames per second, will let you shoot sequentially better than the D30, but, you know what they say, all it takes is money.
Also, not a great photo, but shows you can autofocus, freeze action and get the shot without shutter lag with a D30.
Canon D30 w/70-200 2.8L, 200 asa 1/350th, 4 aperture, AI servo autofocus.

Prefocus by going half-down on the shutter. Get the "focus lock" beep, and after that the shutter lag is virtually negligible.
