Yea they are crazy cars tongue.gif When you switch ESP off it doesn't actually turn it off completely. It only turns it off until you reach i think 25km/h Then it kicks back in and works at full function.

oh ok thats weird^^^ because i noticed the rear end was alot more oversteery with it turned of

anyway i shot Compak Attack for Autosalon Magazine and its out in this month magazine... Was really challenging as i had never done drag racing stuff before... but they where happy with the result and so was i... They also lent me a 20d so i could use 2 bodys and man i need to upgrade my 350d..

anyway here are my favorite shots:

Disagree, i think it's all gold. Perhaps the headlights from the cover are a little too blown out for my liking.

Post #232

thanks guys, i think the first evo shot needs alittle more lighting on the right handside of the car

matt mead
Post #234

yeah i know tongue.gif ahh u cant turn back time lol

time to buy those pocket wizards so i can spend more time worrying about light placement and comp rather then making sure the flashs fire lol

matt mead
Post #235

went out to initial drift... was being a little silly with the shutter lol but i like the challenges that come with that lol...all shot with 350d and 55-250is lense

sorry about the big watermarks.. but a company decided to steal one of my photos for an advertisement so its a precaution i now have to make... i really hate having to do it sad.gif

i hear u matt hope u sorted that thing out . nothing worse than ppl thinking its there rights to use ur images commercially.

i had a guy saving my pics off boost and selling them on magnets and stickers on ebay especially the drags .. even a dvd slide show of most my pics even the spit ones.

bougth an old film camera should be lots of fun smile.gif

Nick_
Post #244

Gee there's a few guys getting back into film..


Why Matt if you don't mind sharing? They're both SLR's except you can't tell if your screwing up in film so you'd waste a whole shoot (unless this is a cheap back-up body?)

matt mead
Post #245

I bought a film camera pretty much for practise..im going to limit myself to maybe two rolls of film a trackday and force myself to really think about composition, camera settings as well as not using post processing to make the shot... i think it will make me a better photographer in the long run

we will soon find out
