Ok i think that is enough,

[RICEY]

Are they the same 3 GTs always parked at Pacific Transport?

[Steppo_GT]

nah that was at the FPV drive day a couple of weeks ago.

Mine is the red one which very rarley gets driven

[ben351]

i wish i know about that ... i would have brought the GT-P out and shown yous how to strip 40k in resale value off a car.

[Steppo_GT]

i wish i know about that ... i would have brought the GT-P out and shown yous how to strip 40k in resale value off a car.

haha in that case i took off about 50. :lol:

my back tyres are now bald and my front ones pretty worn from the understeer because of that day. So many people were asking me, oh are we off to Beaurepairs on the way home? haha

[pgc]

Awesome photos considering it's a phone!

[TJ]

Yup, they do a very good job for a mobile phone :D

[ben351]

5mp phone camera ftw :)

[pgc]

5mp phone camera ftw :)

Slightly biased there Ben.

Shouldn't it be 5mp phone camera taking photos of a Ford ftw? :)

[Steppo_GT]

haha, it should be 5mp phone camera taking photo's of a ford doing a burnout ftw... Who's keen to take photo's :yum:

[pgc]

TJ will be, to try his new piece of kit.

[ben351]

Owain aka TX3Laser_Turbo has an old video of mine on his phone or computer of a certain black GT-P smoking out the bottom carpark at Contacio's in Scabs hahaha the black strips were there for ages.

[Steppo_GT]

yeah i got one on my phone too from AHG but you need to convert it and shit to post it up.

[TJ]

haha, it should be 5mp phone camera taking photo's of a ford doing a burnout ftw... Who's keen to take photo's :yum:

Keen.

St Georges Tce 5.30 this arvo?

[Steppo_GT]

Yeah i'll see you there...

[DRKWRX]

40D hey TJ you have realised that Canon is better then Nikon :lol: its a good camera will get lots of good photos with it.

[DRKWRX]

taken in my backyard last night

[ELUSIV]

40D hey TJ you have realised that Canon is better then Nikon :lol: its a good camera will get lots of good photos with it.

actually Nikon > Canon atm, look @ the D300 and D3, absolutely rape anything Canon has ;)

but @ the end of the day camera is only a tool, the user is more important, much like the driver of a car, vast majority of good photos come from those who have good skill. :)

[Sully]

there's been some awesome sunsets lately hey. did you play with the colour balance in that pic or chose a different white balance or something? looks a bit more red than i would have thought it should

[DRKWRX]

nah mate taken with 5d and bit of saturation might be bit warm. Your kidding about the Nikons raping the Canon right? The D3 is still being compared with the Canon 5d in noise control a camera that is two and a half years old and it just beats it but te 5d is still sharper, the Nikon just uses software in camera to reduce noise, but they are different cameras look at the new Canon 1ds MKIII way better camera then the D3, but of course Nikon fans will love Nikons and vice versa and like you said the camera is just a tool, you still have to take the photos.

[ELUSIV]

i like both Nikon and Canon, both have their strengths and weaknesses, Nikon's flash system and support for older lenses (which i have) is mainly what sold me.
1Ds MKIII is having some major issues at the moment such as the continous focussing probs that have been documented very well. The Canonites may think the 5D compares to the D3 but they are sadly mistaken, and you cant compare noise from a camera that hasnt even been reviewed properly yet. funny how Canon users continually harp on about iso noise, Canon has performed better in the past but they wont conceed the fact that Nikon has better metering, autofocus system, flash system, more comfortable cameras to use and the list goes on, tho the D3 is CMOS and the noise should be better than any current Canon offerings being a new camera.
Canon 1Ds MKIII and 5D can do ISO 100-1600 with 3200 on HI, D3 can do ISO 100-6400 with HI2 reaching ISO of up to 25600...yeh dont think Canon has anything with that.
Or autofocus? 5D has 9 standard autofocus points, D3 has 51 points with the option of 3D tracking. Exposure comp Canon + or - 3EV, D3 + or minus 5.
More importantly for those who shoot racing/rallying, 5D can do 3fps max, D3 9fps max.
List goes on but here are the links for the non-believers:

http://www.dpreview.com/previews/nikond3/page2.asp
http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Canon/canon_eos5d.asp

D3 = New GT-R
5D = 34 GT-R

Still isnt factoring in lenses, the user, post-processing, but it is clear that Canon has nothing compared to Nikon's D300/D3...yet ;)

Nice photo though, just goes to show that user is more important than equipment and there will always be something newer and better! :)

[DRKWRX]

yeah the Nikons do have the strong points, I dont want to get into a big arguement cos I know its not going to get anywhere :lol: I think your mistaking the 1ds mkIII for the 1d mkIII, Im a Canon Fan I believe they have the best lenses, I believe they have the best sensors thats enough for me then I take the photos :lol: but you see comparing the 5d to the d3 is pointless compare it to the new 1dsmkIII the 21.1 megapixel one not the 1dmkIII the 10 megapixel one. The 1dmkIII does 10fps btw next time you watch a sporting event see how many white lenses you see (i know nikon makes white lenses too but i assure you most will be Canon :lol: )

[YOUR MATE]

Erm, so I wont go asking what SLR to buy then.. Was leaning towards a Canon, altho I havent had any time with a Nikon or other so I might have to look around some.

Anyway, few other pics from my dodge current camera.

[ELUSIV]

yerp apples and oranges, haha yeh its like Toyota vs Nissan no point arguing better to just go out and take pictures and enjoy what ya have :)
Like i said i like both Canon and Nikon, both have great lenses and bodies and sensors, its impossible to say one is ultimately better than they other because it really depends on what you are using them for, your budget, etc...

[miss_petepie]

i wanna get a new camera after new years.. ive currently got a shitty cannon that isnt good for taking pro shots..

i wanna get a proper SLR.. ive found a good (well from what ive read) Nikon DSLR but a mate is pointing me to Cannon DSLR's.. gonna continue my camera hunt and read all the info I can...

[DRKWRX]

you wont be unhappy with either, what I would say is go to a store hold each camera see which you like better also have a look at the lenses see which offers the lenses that suit you better because the lenses will be what keeps you with a certain brand over time!

[miss_petepie]

ah yeh very true

i was gonna go and hold them all.. i tryed to hold a mates camera and didnt like it. felt way to heavy at the front.. thought that would hinder my balance nd getting good shots.. but thats that tripods are for :D

will go and suss them out before I buy.. wanna make sure I get the right ones for what I want :)

[DRKWRX]

what camera was it?? I hold my dslr with one hand on the lens and one on camera, 5d with grip and 100-400mm feels well balanced for me! but yeah I would read as much as you can on the net then go hold them all, dont listen to the people at the stores because they know fuck all.

[miss_petepie]

umm phark knows which one.. was a massive black one.. just didnt sit right in my hands and after a while got to heavy.. have held some others and they were easy to hold.. but the specs of the camera wasnt that good..

any sites that are good for reading on the specs of cameras?

[ELUSIV]

ive given recommendations to a few people who are wanting to get a dslr, found these few things ive learnt as well as what others have learnt helps when you are getting in 2 it:

1) work out your budget and then see which camera bodies and lenses as well as accessories will fit into that budget

2) once u know what bodies you are keen on go to a store and see how they feel, for my hands smaller dslr's like the Canon 350D/400D and Nikon's D40 are uncomfortable, i have a D80 and it seems to be a nice size, but ive also held a Canon 30D/40D and 5D and they are fairly comfortable as well, but i prefer the Nikon ergonomics and the layout of the buttons.

3) dont jump in deep! can be tempting 2 get the best or buy a more professional body but when you start it may be worth getting a cheaper body and investing the money saved on good glass (lenses) that way if you outgrow the body its easy to use your good quality lenses on a new body

4) hunt around for good prices, i get some of my stuff off ebay shops, some off www.digitalrev.com or use www.shopbot.com.au to find best price, can save a tonne of money if ya have a bit of a hunt around :)

5) go onto the www.dpreview.com forums and start reading, theres a lot of really helpful people and people are continually posting photos which can be critiqued that way you can learn and get feedback, probably one of the most active photo communities around.

have fun! :)

[miss_petepie]

ah great thats exactly what I needed! Ive been looking at the Nikon D300? and it looks big and has alot of specs of it.. i wanna read on how to use it and if i really need it.. will check out those sites and hunt around..

also gonna look into doing the photography course at tafe at night just to get a general understanding of it all..

[DRKWRX]

Mate I dont know how good the Tafe course is but If I was you I would just look on Photography forums and read as much as you can, there is more information on the Internet then a tafe course can give you, and one of the most important things is practice!

[miss_petepie]

thats very true.. im open to all options and atm reading on the nets free and gives me something to do.. gonna go and try out a few over the weekend and will do some shopping around to see what I can find :)

[ELUSIV]

yeah a course is a good idea, D300 is a camera semi-pro/pro camera, the thing you may find is that you may be jumping into an ocean when you cant swim, its a fantastic body, just came out and is so far ahead technology wise than the D200 and rival Canon offerings, however like i said, could be a bit overwhelming. Its not uncommon to see people new to dslr photography to produce worse images with more powerful cameras than cheaper bodies too as the sensors are generally bigger and more sensitive as well as hundreds of customisable options.
If you go a D300 id definately recommend whacking it in auto for a while, but bare in mind i think D300's are like $2500 ish for the body. Easy to spend a lot as well on lenses/flash/tripod/accesories, etc...
D300 is truly awesome though!! Have to let me borrow it sometime i reckon ;)

[DRKWRX]

yeah 2,500 is alot for your first dslr body ahah i would say cheaper body and a good lens would be a better option then you can always sell the body and upgrade if you feel the need. It will take you a while to know what everthing does properly anyways.

[miss_petepie]

yeh i was thinking the same.. plus thats alot for me to out lay all in one go.. will see what I can find and what suits me more.. have been writing down some that I like and also stuff they have in common.. coz they have alot the same but some differences so if I can get the same for cheaper then I will be happy.. just gotta work out how to use the dam things!!

then its time for a holiday and go nuts with the camera :D

[ELUSIV]

Mate I dont know how good the Tafe course is but If I was you I would just look on Photography forums and read as much as you can, there is more information on the Internet then a tafe course can give you, and one of the most important things is practice!

def, ive never done any courses, im really critical on everything i do and constantly try to find problems with my photos so i can improve.
but i agree soooooo much to learn from the forums and looking @ other people's photos, then when you take some and experience the same thing you can understand what is going wrong :)
Only thing that sucks is processing RAW files :(

Did some photos on tuesday, didnt turn out too bad considering it was overcast and the light was garbage :)

[miss_petepie]

scored myself this from my lovely partner for xmas

http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Pentax/pentax_k100dsuper.asp

no idea how to use it but his parents bought me a 4 night photography course to learn basic stuff about the camera and how to take some decent shots..

cant wait to get started now :D

[Sully]

that looks like it should be a fairly decent camera. something like that is awesome to learn on because there's so many functions on it that you can play with. enjoy it!

Haha no worries man.

Dont worry its acually quite easy!
I only got mine last week aswell.

1st thing you need is a tripod. Go to the national geographic shop in gallaria and theuy gave pretty good ones for $59!!

Go to a location that you want to take pics of. Set camera to "AV"
Set ISO to anything above 600
Roll that roller behind the button you push to take te pics, this will adjust how long the shutter stays open for.

You must keep camera 100% still!
You pics will come out as good if not better

Dont worry , i have loads to learn aswell. I have been playin with camera every night and readin the book many times to suss it all

[Macca]

Haha yep sure did. I was spinning out!
Weird lizards!

lol, yep they wierd little critters, we have them all over our house, next time you up there try and pick 1 up, i pretty much have a pet 1

[V70R]

Ninja, you getting much noise with those night shots ?

[YOUR MATE]

I got a tripod (manfrotto one, top notch) and got a remote for the camera too. Maybe I made myself out to be more inept than I am lol I know about exposure etc the problem I'm having is that if it's pretty dark it cant focus and just doesnt take a pic. Putting flash on helps but then you have a flash.. Do you use manual focus or is there a way around it?

Cant wait to bust out some half hour exposure and get star trails when I find a place dark enough,

[miss_petepie]

ive got my photography course this weekend so hopefully will be taking some better pics :D cant wait!

you wont be able to use AF during the night because the AF assist illuminator cant light up anywhere near enough of a night scene to allow the camera to focus. Most lenses have a manual focus ring, if you look through the viewfinder and keep turning it until eventually the whole scene should come into focus. If it doesnt move make sure it isnt locked.

[Sully]

the af system works by picking out contrasting shades so if i'm doing long exposures at night i'll take a torch or some kind of light with me purely to get the focus right. shine the light on what you want to take the pic of, focus the camera then set it to manual focus so it doesn't try to refocus again when you turn the torch off and press the shutter button.

they're pretty good pics though! your composition in the first batch of pics is good!

as for picking your iso at night, you dont' want to go too high other wise you'll start getting noise (graining) in the pics. noise reduction is getting better in the new dslrs but it's just something else to keep in mind.

[GA70TT]

some nice pics there :)

ive got a couple from a recent trip down south.... if i had a tripod they could have been better

I took that pic well over a year ago and i cant find the original, so not sure on exposure settings, but ISO would have been set at 100
Plus a bit of photoshop never hurts

Fkn cannot stand these digi cams, i grew up/learned with analouge, the ol school way, but it seems im going to have to convert to digital.

This was a mates cam, not even sure what... but compared to analouge it was fkn sh!t... after a 40mins or so trying to figure out the settings... the cvnt of a thing ran out of battery...

im going to buy a decent one and make some proper contributions.

nice work ninja!

Ninja for the City shots your better off getting there a bit earlier so you can still get some colour in the sky otherwise you will just get black sky.

Cheers man, yep either get there earlieror go full moon for more light ;)

[Sully]

or go for a really long exposure... you'll be amazed at what you can pick up

this was taken at midnight over at rotto back in february i think it was. it's not the best pic in the world because i was really REALLY drunk when i took it. BUT it is midnight looking across from the middle of the island back towards perth. i think it was a 30 sec exposure

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v409/boofead/rotto/IMG_9465.jpg

[DRKWRX]

Yeah you can do that, But with the city shot if you take a really long exposure your gonna have more blown out highlights, then if your earlier with shorter exposure.

[YOUR MATE]

Here's some of my first attempts with the 400D and editing. Came out quite grainy, was starting to rain so in my hurry I didnt play with the ISO settings or try many diff exposures. Everytime I've headed out this week it's started fkn raining..

nice work mate, If your going to use a Tripod you might aswell have the iso on the lowest setting possible so you get the least amount of noise.

Just went out and bought myself a Nikon D60 with a twin lense kit (18-55 and 55-200)

Dont know much about proper photography so im hoping to do some classes or something.

Just mucked around this morning with everything set to auto and busted this out

anyone know if there is anything at freo south mole or the wharf behind e shed markets



ohh and anyone know where to point me in the direction of drifting im in need of learning

[dorisaur]

I have no idea if these are any good or not, most of them needed a bit of a lighten up but i was pretty happy with the focus and level of motion. I have reduced the sizes and quality a bit for bandwidth purposes but some feedback from you blokes would be good (more in the way of composition tips than "this one is good/shit")

Its my first time shooting cars and i have had this D40x for about 3 months now, using manual settings for the last few weeks only. I had a lot of fun though, its a great challenge to try and get the drifting in focus and crisp without making the shutter speed so fast as to lose the movement.

Can someone here recommend a digital camera that is somewhat user friendly for someone ol'school photography orientated?

gimme a ol Nikon ffs, these digi's just take all the fun out of it.... or maybe im out of touch... :p

[Sully]

the new digital slr's work pretty much exactly the same as the old slr's. difference is that all your settings come up nicely on a screen or through the viewfinder and you can look at how rubbish or brilliant the pic is that you just took.

if you've learnt on slr's then i'd be avoiding point and shoot cameras and going for a dslr. anything from nikon or canon will do you well. if you don't want to fork out for a new one then there's plenty of second handies going around on ebay for a nice price. they're all good

cheers Ninja, i got some reading to do :p

[Sully]

the only thing i suggest is to get the best body you can afford and then hold onto it. the base level lenses aren't really worth keeping and i honestly wouldn't bother with the twin lens kit. the long telephoto isn't all that sharp in the kits. the enthusiast kit is worth it though. the lens is a step up and usually has a good zoom range.

i would buy a second hand 30d or even a 20d over a new 400d if you're looking at canons. it's a more intuitive system and it just feels better to use. takes better pics too!

chamonix was pretty cool but we didn't get fresh until the last day, rome and london were boss, amsterdam was way too much fun and very very pretty, can't wait to get back there
brugge was extremely pretty as well, although all the restaurants have a weird mussel fixation

ninja not sure if the Canons have it but id assume so, is grid lines, there is a button you can bind to do what you want on the D80 and above bodies which a lot of people have to do a DoF preview or toggle grid lines, is really great for making sure horizons are straight :)

im gunna add a few, nothing really special photo wise, but they were both hard to get style of photos:

[ReaperSS]

ninja my hot tip for you is to make sure that your horizon is level. they seem to have a lean to them. you can usually use the af points in the viewfinder as good reference points
Thanks for that tip man :)

I will check that next time for sure :)

Boogaz car last night...

http://img516.imageshack.us/img516/4961/matrx2jn3.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

[Sully]

that one with the car lights, it'll work better if you put the camera on a timer and make sure that you're moving when the shutter opens and try to keep a constant speed otherwise you'll get a ghost of the car like you've got there. my other suggestion is to go for greater depth of field so everything is in focus. it still looks good though

[cplagz]

The other tip is just rotate your photo so horizon is straight so Dave can't whine about it :p

[ReaperSS]

Cheers guys, i dont mind the tips :)
The more advice the better :)

[V70R]

using the paint tool over the numberplate just completely killed the photo - IMO

Those are some cool pics, nice

[V70R]

I think you have the lens open for too long IMO.
try bumping the Aperture back a bit so you get some more clarity and no so much 'mist' flooding the pic.

[miss_petepie]

nothing to flash here.. went out today for something to do as Ive got a week off work... went down behind red rooster in gosnells and there is a tree top walk you can do that goes down along a creek.. can take your kids down there and stuff..

seeing as it was only me down there it was sooooo quiet and peaceful I just wandered around for a bit...

top one is really cool, but looks like there is a hot spot on the sensor, little red pixel in the top right?

[YOUR MATE]

Yeah just saw that after I loaded it up. Also top SSZ one has a small blue dot. Whats the go with that?

Also got this shot which I really like

http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d28/Nthn_suss/SSZ2.jpg

[DRKWRX]

your sky shot has a blue and a red dot, Dead pixels or hot pixels, apparently with the 5ds if you chuck it on long exposure for 15minutes it fixes it somtimes otherwise you can send it back for warranty if it bothers you that much.

hahahha chris, its very nice pic ay

[XF Falcon]

hell yeah

is that fog over the water, or just the effect of the water over a long exposure shot?

[GA70TT]

slow shutter speed makes the water look that way. Iam only using a D40X, iam still not 100% with it, but i can generally figure out what iam doin. Also helps when you have a tri-pod

should have made it a little quicker to get more of the water in..but meh :)
