Dear Aussie members, use big powerful lenses, and take pics from the distance ... so being out of range of Helmut's fists, and Scott's bottles. Scottie, like usually, just pretend seeing nothing, and let people take some pics. **** Another request aimed at spies-wannebees: focus on headlights & grille, and the rear incl rearlights & boot lid. |

Something similar what happened in SAR few years ago when an intruders was busted while taking pics of E61 5er pics at the filming scene. "Big Helmut" (a nickname for bMW security team  ) chased down the photographer giving him few kick in the ass, and demolished his camera & memory cards.But in such case you can press charges anytime ... But so can BMW ... accusing you of industrial espionage. Yet ... Nowadays CreativeMarketing department encourages regular people to take pics of exposed upcoming BMW models. Just eg. Scottie gave us the hint they would be filming in Australiy / Sydney, and just like filming crew disclosed further shooting positions to CarPoint journalist / photographer.  | |

Carry one those with you when doing the shooting and if the BMW's unit of gorillas tries to touch you then give them a taste of the metal. Or for the less violent ones, carry one of these in the pocket of your jacket.  | |

Therefore all interested parties are kindly asked to hide in the bushes, or behind the garbage bins ... and take the pics as discretely as possible. That's why such photographers are named SPY photographers. Not being classic paparazzi taking pics from a distance of one mere inch. | |
