Invest in a Dell IPS monitor and calibration software like Spyder 3 or Eye-One or Color Munki. All good devices and give you accurate colour day in day out.

I use a Dell IPS monitor as well as a second screen for browsing the web and spyder 3 software on both. Well worth it!

Same here. +1

No point spending $$$$$$$$ on camera gear, when you dont have an accurate monitor to PP your work.

bnr - WOW nicely done :D Got any more??

ta

No more for now, always interesting to go back to old photos and see what you can do with them now so will see if I can find anything else to play with.

Off to Singapore in 4 weeks to so should have some good stuff from there also

Nice photos Matt.

The photos look distorted to me in IE and firefox. Could be my cr@ppy computer at work.

How are you resizing them and where are you hosting them?

This could be the reason why they are so soft.

They've just been uploaded to picasa, and stored there, no editing of sizes or anything happened. Are you drunk again? ;_)

I'll agree, the third is a bit cluttered up and to much stuff everywhere. cheers boys.

took these at lunch yesterday. they're not crazy angles or anything special. They're kind of important though, first time i knew exactly what I wanted to do, how to light and set the car out, how to shoot. Precission ;p Took about 10 minutes to set up and shoot, then about 5 minutes in photoshop to increase contrast and add a sharpen after resizing. I think it's time to get serious about shooting people's cars now.

Nice pics matt. I wish i was drunk.

You have your own site why don't you host them yourselfs? Picasa could be compressing them, never know.

On a side note, if anyone here owns a Canon 40D or 50D, view my thread HERE if you want some awesome batteries!

I must say i'm not a fan of HDR photos of cars. They just bring out way too much detail and ruins it for me, but that's just my personal opinion. If it's done nicely and not over-done it's ok, but most just pull too much detail out of the reflections in the paint. But i like the composition :)

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
