Heres my lame attempt at shooting star trails.

Yes i know its not perfect.. im working on it lol..

Also that long line in the middle is the airplane crossing over.. I wonder if my stock kit lens can handle this at 17mm.. I need something wide hmm

This was with my 50mm lens..

Will give it another try tomorrow..

Also i need to find the southern Polaris.. hmmm

some nice pics guys

siddr20 - not a bad effort - how long was shutter open for? you have a remote or how did you do it?

what did you have the camera on? and most puzzling of all - how come the trails look like dots?

(this one was with exposure: 59.1 sec so yours must have been aaaages)

Which link? my stars one? how about THIS?

As for remotes - i bought THIS cheapy and it works and the quality is better than i expected.

Have only tried normal photo's haven't tried doing bulb WITH the remote (can test tonight though)

Yea its still in the making..

Will try again tonight if the skies are clear!! Hopefully this time it comes out a lot better!!

Might try it with my stock kit lens.. I need something wide!! hmmm

As for how long the shutter was open for.. well 30 seconds.

Once i get it perfect i will share my exact method.. Coz right now its just all trail and error lol

zennon your linky no worky. on the 450d, bulb is the next option after the 30sec exposure. i need to buy a remote

If you can find out if the the remote switch for the 450d is the same as for a 350d, then you can buy mine for like 5 bucks or something!!

If it doesn't work, i will give the money back.. Since the 450ds are new im sure they changed the plugs?? But im not too sure!!

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
