fuck that first shot is awesome.

so when will you be purchasing said 5DmkII?

matt mead
Post #473

um lets just say i took about 20 shots and quickly gave it back as i knew i wouldnt be able to stop myself buying one

I luv the fact with full frame u can slap the 70-200 on and still be close to the car

Nice work on the first shot! Sky could use a little clone above the guys head... really annoying lol

Now HURRY UP AND BUY!

matt mead
Post #475

haha, yeah photos needs some cloneing especially the pole coming out of the roof, but i couldnt be bothered exporting to photoshop, pp was all done in lightroom

Id luv to buy one but i have fuck all use for it, i need the crop factor as i cant afford the long glass that i would need with Full frame.

and im trying to get away from static car stuff and just focus on motorsport in 2009

wow that first shot is amazing!

Post #479

thanks guys, but there is no way im buying one lol

Post #480

5d would be sweet, but i have found video in the D90 to be a bit of a gimmick (must use a tripod even with VR, manual focus is pretty difficult when tracking cars). how did you like the screen on the back? biggrin.gif

all that money and still a slow continuous shutter speed... not really a useful sports camera

still takes a good photo but! well done

matt mead
Post #481

Hd recording is good, if u dont plan to zoom, manual focus is pretty easy to sus out. Thing i didnt like is that you cant control apeature while recoroding, but easily fixed by stacking on ND filters. The screen on the back is amazing quaility.

Yeah fare from usefull sport camera, if it was 5fps like the 1ds mk3 i would be all over it. But it wasent designed for that.

Well got to shot a driver trainning centre track day today. I only shot for about 1 hour as i was driving my car, so i had to work with the sun and limitied variety of cars unfortuntley. The camera was playing funny buggers on the white balance aswell. But all in all wow, what a fun track to shoot. Went silly with shutter speed as usually oh well lol. Its funny that If ppl werent wearing helmets you would just think its the side of the road.

Feel free to comment smile.gif

haha, i luv how everyone is so different. Dont be affriad to say you dont like something its all our own perspective smile.gif

Personally I luv them, i was so excitied when editing them haha. Its just so different. Brand new track. New challengers, photogenic surroundings.. went silly with the blur however. But i luved playing with the background, it just wasent like any other track day.

Well, i love the composition in all the photos, and i can see what you were trying to do, but i think in most of them just the lack of sharpness in the car itself lets them down. I dunno, I'm pretty sure that's it haha!

I hope you get to shoot there again though tongue.gif looks promising!

ps. The set does nothing for me also tongue.gif And yes I like number 8 out of the set. Might just be the boring subjects in this case.
