E92 and lens choice... - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

For some reason the E92 looks better with wide angle. I played with some telephoto shots and the car looks a little funky (stubby, horizontally). It was the opposite with my Supras, they looked great with zoom but wide angle really brought out the size of the nose.

Thoughts?

Agreed. Ok this is not an e92 but the huge bonnets even on this, at 12mm just looks mahoosive.

Ill try and get a shot for ya with an e92

What you will be looking for is on a crop DSLR, something around the 10-20mm mark or for a full frame body, 12mm before heading into fisheye lenses. Great fun but may not be flattering for all angles.
