yeah EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM. Only got it two days ago so those were the first couple shots I took with it.

Lovely shots slim!!

hmm i would have thought with that lens the pics would have been much sharper? Or is it just my screen?

that would be me being superduper shakey.. wasnt using a tripod so you can imagine focusing that close has a lot of shake, and the stabaliser can only do so much..

if I get any time this weekend I will take it out with a tripod and play around.

Absolutely fantastic shots. What settings did you use for the second one down? Looks great! :P

Thanks mate,

I set the ISO at 100. And the shutter speed to 6.8 (I think thats what the shutter speed was). Im still getting used to the camera, just a Fuji Finepix S5800

I was lucky enough to get it at a bit of a steal, 400 directly from canon, once in a life time. lol.. I was just about to spend the same amount on cheaper macro lens at a shop, so luckily I didnt.

Just another from one my group the other day.

I just cant wait for summer to get some more colour. Of course to get some more bugs out there as well hahah...

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out

      Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.

      Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.

      By Kapr · Posted

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
