1:36? Perfect candidate for a 1:32 slot car conversion...

Using autofocus isn't necessarily bad. you probably need more light and a tripod, and maybe the macro funtion if your camera has it. BTW, wich camera do you use now and as pointed out by T-Bird, how much is "cheap" for you?

For my latest pics I used autofocus too and natural light, the result is still not bad

Well I'm going to go see the first Ford GT to go to a dealership (my friend works at the dealership) and I get to take as much pictures and videos as I want so I think I;mg going to use a camera that I can get the film developed on digital. what is a very good high res disposible camera and cheap is about 50-70 US $$

Ok you really meant "CHEAP".. well in that case there is NO digital camera for that price... a disposable camera has to be a classical film one and you will have to scan the pics or to ask them on CD when you develop them (not sure abou tthe size in that case)..

But I think with some 300 USD you can still buy a good digicamera wich will take better pics and will stay with you for some hundread / thousands of pics.. maybe it's better to save for a little while and go for it

Well ok it's only a 2 MP, but I think still better than a disposable camera.

I know its just that I want to take pics of the inside and the gauges but I don't want them to look like those CLK-GTR pics.
