  1. Lightroom and Photoshoooooooooooooooop I would start with lightroom as it's much easier to get your head around than photoshop (if you've never used it before). I recommend reading Scott Kelbys lightroom books (or go online to kelbytraining) he has a lot of free tips/tutorials on there. Might have to go to his blog to find them though, i can't remember!
  2. Voted for ya Bobby! Keep up the great work mate! It's almost there
  3. Is this on Mc Carrs creek rd around where the restaurants are? And what colour is your GTST? Think i see it all the time!
  4. Wow i hate 300's but that one actually looks alright! good fitment In regards to too much noise in the shadows, what camera do you have? Also it looks like you only have one flash too? i'm sure the carpark actually isn't that dark and it's probably showing noise in the shadows because it's underexposed.
  5. And the bike messenger delivers again! Great shots Jay! you must be close to the end of project 365 right? You didn't start at the start of the year did you?
  6. How many MP is a 1000D? 10MP? You'll be able to get around 250 Raw shots on a 4GB card. I have a 7D and use 8GB cards and i can get 270-300 Raw shots but the file sizes are around 20-30MB. I always shoot RAW. Much easier to manipulate the file. You can do it with a JPEG but it will not be as clean and it won't take much for the file to basically "crumble". A stop is 1 stop. E.g. F5.6 to F8 is one f stop. 1/125th to 1/250th is 1 stop etc... Google it, if you want the full stop calculations, i don't want to type them all up, will take too long lol. RAW's advantages over JPEG is easily the manipulation. You would be surprised how much you can recover in a RAW. Although blowing out a white shirt and pulling it back 3 stops might be an extreme as it will start to lose it's dynamic range. If that is the case, i suggest you work on your exposures. If you shoot a JPEG it will already (In-camera) adjust the sharpness, saturation, contrast etc... to whatever you have set in the camera. Whereas the RAW PREVIEW will show exactly the same thing, but once loaded into camera raw in photoshop, these will be stripped and the image will be "flat" until you adjust it to how you want. Shoot an image 2 stops over-exposed/under-exposed as a JPEG and shoot the same thing as a RAW and you will see the difference. Try recovering them both and you'll see the difference. Most sport shooters shoot in JPG at events so that the "card runners" can collect their cards and upload straight away to the editors etc.. 95% of pro's/most photographers will shoot in RAW. Much less destructive than JPEG editing. IF you google RAW vs JPEG i'm sure there are over a million answers why you should shoot RAW
  7. I just took my first videos on my 7D on sunday lol. No idea what i'm doing, but figured i'd post the link. All i did was flick it to video, adjust exposure and film it. No editing at all wouldn't know how to without adobe premiere. Realized how long rendering takes and importing/exporting etc... So just cancelled it and straight upload to youtube (215MB)!!!! Can anyone tell me how to compress it a lot more but not lose video quality? Would like to take some more videos at events because the noise is pr0n.
  8. Will most probably rock up and take a few photos
  9. They have a website. First 3 rounds are this year in VIC/QLD/Perth and then next year there will be 5 events, probably in sydney and SA as well. www.trackbattle.com.au
  10. Damn Bobby, looks so good. Now that WTAC is over and everythings settling down and hopefully the weather stays good, will be in contact
  11. Did you fap away John?
  12. Damn that fits nicely.... Looks so at home!
  13. Your car was rad at WTAC! I thought it was yours but couldn't tell because of all the new stickers/decals. Congrats on the time mate, hope you come back next year! Here's two pics i snapped of it.
  14. If we want to head down as a photographer, do we need to apply for media passes for winton?
  15. Gridgirls.net.au Represent! The girls getting familiar with the vibrations of a SPL setup If you rip mad skids, you can touch these...
  16. Did he honestly mean to do it? Not saying that he didn't, but he did come to basically a complete stop at turn 2 to let you past on your flyer. Was he on a flying lap as well? I assume not because that line into the hairpin wouldn't really work would it..? And as said above, at least he apologized! Bad sportsmanship if he didn't, it just goes to show how competitive it actually has gotten!
  17. Nice photos! Advice for dark rooms? Use a flash or take a tripod/rest camera on something and do long exposures. If you want natural light (Looks better sometimes) bump the ISO up!
  18. You guys were rad out there. Great time for limited testing and never being to the creek before. Really enjoyed hearing and watching your car all weekend. Here's some pics i got of your 35. Hope to see you next year!!!!
