And everyone else. Each of your hypotheticals is considered and
incorporated into a very conservative, very careful battle plan by a
hyper-cowardly, hyper-defensive driver. Don't worry about it.

The ordinary driver on an average errand travels one-fourth of a mile
with his/her eyes closed. Do you eliminate blinking? Hardly. You
learn to pay attention to the appropriate cues. It works. Amazing,
but true.


I give up.

In order to give up, you must have previously established a tenable
postition.

You are a superman that has everything planned,
can do nothing wrong and have reflexes that are incredible.

And that Fishfry he is a Borg that can use his zoom lens as
a substitute for real sight.

Of course. And that it probably is illegal don't worry you the
slightest either. I mean - we cowboys can and do whetever we will.
No sherrif in sight - so just shot!

Personally I think you have seen to much Termiantor or some other
action films where they can do anything. In the real world you
(and others) die when you do like that.

BTW - what shall you do with all your silly pictures taken from
your car? They must be incredible dull and of wery low quality.


As long as we have left the informative and ventured into personal
slights:
Your womb is wandering again.

Bye-bye, formerly esteemed /Roland

You guys all serious? It's really not that difficult. I watch the road
through the viewfinder. When you zoom in it can be a little
disconcerting but you get used to it. Like anything else, it's about
practice.

Through the viewfinder? Are you serious?
Where's your periferal vision?

Change "g" to "a"

Mr Fishfry said he used the view finder. He even said he
zoomed while looking.

Now - you talk about safe handling. Where do you store the
camera when you are not photographing? How do you find it?
How do you position it so you get the correct hold of it?
What kind of stuff are you photographing? Do you think it
is important to catch certain shots? What happen if it is
taking some more seconds to take the shot than you planned?


I never take pictures while I'm driving, although I have taken pictures
while others were driving and the results are usually less than
spectacular.

I take many pictures from my (stopped) car (I photograph property for
clients). I leave the camera on the seat. I can pick it up and have it
ready to shoot in a moment by feel. I leave all the settings set and
allow it to time out. When I want to take a photo, I reach over and press
the shutter button to wake it. By the time I have the window down it is
ready.

In defence of Mr. Fishfry, he did not discuss the circumstances under
which he takes photos while driving. I think there would be a difference
between, for instance, downtown Washington D.C. or Interstate Highway
between New York and Boston, and US 17, 40 miles north of Florida. The
first two would probably be dangerous any time of any day, but the last
one really wouldn't. There's frequenly no traffic in sight, the road is
straight and level, and long stretches are uninhabited. Not much to take
pictures of without stopping, either... I've often thought it would be
handy to have a monocular to identify traffic on the horizon (not that
I'd acutally use one).
