You shoot too? It's always fun to shoot and share together nod.gif

I read your earlier post in this thread, you mentioned one should read some books before making the purchase, may I know is there anywhere I can download the books?

i bought quite a few from book stores...
for online, i use isotorrent to search. google helps too!
depends what do u need to know about the beetle, if i know i may help tongue.gif or if i have i may share (the books or downloads, books u gotta come take lo..)

yeah i shoot too, but hardly since working is very busy...i was more on film camera (classic maa), then got a nikon D70for the sake of using old lens on DSLR, but nikon wasn't capable enough for pairing with old lens, so i sold and now using a Sony A33. smile.gif

You really a classic lover smile.gif
I use dslr... shame on me :|

Thank you for the information, I think I will try to search and download some pdf ebook as a start.

Btw, my purpose of getting the beetle is #1 & #2.
#1, I have been admiring this car for long time, but due to the maintenance issues that I heard, I just don't have enough courage to get one for myself tongue.gif

However, as for #2, not for resale, but for rent, do you think worthy?
Cos every now and then I do see people wanted to rent one for their wedding, and since I'm somehow part of the wedding business, I'm thinking to get 1 for casual drive and at the same time for renting.

IMO, beetle is not good for wedding, unless u get (or make it) a soft top/rag top/ topless.
do notice that the beetle is a 2door saloon and the rear is damn pack. unless u're saying let the groom drive and bride sit beside.but that hardly happens.
so if renting for wedding,u might wana find a kombi, or a safari, which is seriously pricey. or else occasionally u can rent your beetle for advertisement,mtv etc.
my beetle was featured in an MTV smile.gif

Actually, there are people, I mean bridegroom will drive the wedding car himself, a few of my clients did that.
Which MTV your beetle featured in? got the youtube link? smile.gif

As for camera, I must use DSLR, it's like killing me if I can't see the instant result tongue.gif
