Side by Side

Your help is needed here.

What I am looking for is a number of images of each marque as a front view, side view and rear view, for the side view, I want the passenger side.

Now, we need to do this sort of scientifically so the images are a good representation of the cars so all images must be taken from 2 foot high. The front view needs to be taken 3 meters from the nose, and rear need to be 3 meters from the rear. The side image should be 3 meters from the side.

If the images come out OK, then we are sorted, however if they don't then let me know as I don't currently have a Cobra to measure from.

I need AKs, GDs, Dax, Pilgrim etc etc etc.

Thanks in anticipation guys.

Hi Robert,
How do you want these sent to you? Do you want them posted here as thumbnails or e-mailed directly to you?
Also if you want side views taken from 3 metres, then I think you will get wide-angle distortion.

Uploaded here would be fine.

What distance from the side would you think, not having a cob its a bit difficult to judge.

For a standard focal length lens (35mm Digital) I recon about 6-7 metres for the side shot. 3 mretres would be OK for the front and rear I reckon
