Update from the rig.
Yes it's out of focus, yes it's blurry (didn't bring my shutter release)
The pictures shows a Canon 20D with a 17-40 being suspended from a 20ft pole. At 20ft the pole has a lot of flex and needs a L bracket installed. With a 15ft I'm able to get the whole car in the frame with a crop camera at 17mm so that isn't all that bad!
