If you have a Polarizer that is what it is intended to do. Cut down glare, its just like a pair of sunnies. If you have a Circular Polarizer it acts just like a GND (Graduated Neutral Density) filter, where half is clear, half is dark (Depends on the CPL how many stops of light it is).

Just in case you didn't know.

Great pics Xmetal and Zennon

Lol ta,

I don't pretend to be a pro, so i like the advice/tips/hints/facts etc

I'm only just starting to learn how to use my camera. Its more for personal use, holidays etc, not really pro photos :/

but having said that, its fun to screw around and see what kind of photos you can get

Firstly what lighting method will you be using?

In terms of props etc.. dont worry about it as its your first time. Get the lighting correct. That will be the hardest bit.

Gdluck.. Cant wait to see your pics

Since i'm such a nice person I figured it's worth sharing the secrets with you guys...

I was actually going to ask you how to make those pictures, thanks for that :)

@siddr20:

      I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.

      By Matt Z · Posted

      Our Southern Highlands Cruise is proudly registered with “R U OK?” Day.  Sometimes the best way to check in on your mates is by getting out for a drive together. Sharing a common passion like cars creates the perfect space to chat, connect, and support each other.  A simple “R U OK?” can make all the difference. Let's enjoy the drive, the company, and look out for one another. PLEASE WEAR YELLOW FOR “R U OK?” DAY Sunday 14th September 2025 9:30AM Meeting Crossroads Homemaker Centre 10:00AM Cruise Departure Via Old Hume Hwy 11:45AM Arrival at Mittagong RSL Club Meet Location: Crossroads Homemaker Centre Final Destination: Mittagong RSL Club *Disclaimer* There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost.

If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit.
