If you haven't figured it out, and the sun does stuff you can worry about it. I'm not worrying about shit, sonny.:whistling:

+11ty!!! We have given you advanced 2 weeks warning now. Although i am a qualified spray-canner.

I'm sure i could mix something up to make your car stand out from the rest of them. I'll fly Jay over from SA and he can do some graffiti on your car too. It will be cool.

Either way, are you going to come to this meet and learn some sh!t or what? Select individuals are coming for a photoshoot. If you wanna learn/find out what happened to your car, you should come.

P.S. Matt - Don't forget to PM Owen and Nick also. More importantly Nick as he has the SAU banner and is more important. <3 you Owen.

<3 you too maen.

Not sure if I'll be able to get there, as I'm apparently $25 in debt to my bank, and have already borrowed $200 this month from family (Payday is on the 28th). Shit. Wait, graffiti on car? Ok, so far the only thing I've noticed is on my window there seems to be some kind of "off" colouring above my passenger wiper; although I haven't checked it out fully. I've had a damn good look at all the lights, checked my indicators/lights/tail lights (just in case you'd swapped the bulbs in the numberplate light or something), and no dice there. Looking at an angle, there doesn't appear to be any finger-marks in the dirt on the car (lols), although I might not be looking well enough. I looked over it on Sat all around; had it out on my lawn in full sunlight and couldn't see shit. Honestly, I know you guys have said I'd overlook it, and I f**kin well have.

Nooooooooo idea.

And now for something different...

In other news I'll write up that PM soon, just playing with a couple light paints of my car.

I've given up on Owen working out whats wrong... but I'm still not planning on telling him any time soon. Actually. If he rocks up at this shoot, or the next one I'll tell him. Only when all 3 parties are present though. It's only fair.

nice work Matt! im loving the second one. seems to have the most even spread of light and not as many hotspots. awesome work dude. although, only thing i'd do different is add some more light to the ground. kinda looks like its floating in space, although that could just be my monitor being dark? love the one above it too. how did you do the white part tho? im trying to work it out, lol. and got a shot of that graff by itself? (cant help myself, love graffiti, haha)

Hey guys, haven't been shooting much lately, but I got a chance to test out the ISO on my 5DMkII on Saturday night at a local club.

All taken at ISO3200 and with a 135 f/2L @ f/2 except the first one ~ ISO3200 70-200 f/2.8L @ f/2.8

Nice shots Lepper! You can easily see why ISO3200 is so useable, especially at web size. You could of cranked it up to 6400 and it still would look clean (at web size) and reasonably clean at full res.

Post more pics!

The black shadow is my mates shadow. A pretty model for not a model. Easy to direct. The white shadow is me with some post work. I don't think I was dressed to suit what was going on so I thought how about shadow vs shadow. I think it looks pretty cool. Did some boxing ones too, might try one of those tonight.

Yeah the quality isn't bad at full rez on ISO3200 either hey,.. These were taken at manly fishos... Thanks for the comment man. :D

ah cool. thought it had to be done in post unless you got a perfect cut out of yourself, lol. nice work.

and wow Lepperfish, that 5d does perform well at high ISO's. although for live gig pics i like a bit of grit/grain.

Kids, I've got two ideas:

1. We start a mini chat thread in this section where we can discuss whatever, photography-related, so that the monthly photo threads don't get cluttered; and

2. We start a little friendly "competition" similar to the Canon Photo5 one, where we have similar (or the same) briefs and submit photos here based on that.

What say ye?

Lepperfish - Manly Fishos?! Thats 2 mins down the road from me, do you live around here? I live in Allambie Heights.

I like the plan Nick! Both of them would work. That way there would be a bit of chat in here, but not as much as this month lol.

Maybe a kind of "lounge" area to discuss everything and anything photography related.

And then get a monthly photo thread going. Winner gets SAU goodies like stickers or something and the yearly winner takes your stagea :P Hahaha.

Sounds good to me :P

You guys should enter the comps on ns.com I held. I finally got some prizes now for the winers!! Check it out.

Yo jay, i spotted a white r31 with a kit and rims etc and the plates where JAY ***.. reminded me of you!!

haha, how random! mine is currently kitless as the kit is getting molded. we are hopefully going to graft different fronts onto the sideskirts.

    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
