A Little Bit Of This & A Little Bit Of That :D - Random Photo's


Recommended Posts

Love the Drift R/Brembo and the twilight shot.

mmm... i love the original GTR and the gold brembo :(

Some wicked shots there Rob.

Damn i gotta get a decent camera and someone to show me what to do.

That stuff looks too hot!

Took me TOO long to type before you [NS2500] realised they were 4:3

While on the topic though Greg, I have always wondered why you put a frame around your pics? To dress them up? :)

Either way, both you guys always rollout some really top notch pics :P [for digital-era monkeys]

end :D

Greg has only just joined the digital Era!

Usually he takes all the pics on Film!!!!

And you reckon you get taken the wrong way Ash :P

AFAIK Greg has both types of camera and has for a while, in fact i think i read somewhere that he has several different cams including more than 1 digi...

Digital Era: when I studied photography [89-92], there were no digital cameras, now there are and have been for probably 5-10 years - at the consumer level.

I have a cheap-arse digital cam myself but my SLR [non-digital] is a FAR SUPERIOR camera.

Digital in most cases is just EASIER, hence the market boom - every idiot can use one - NO OFFENCE!

Keep it on topic Ash paaaaaaalease! :D

I still believe film is much nicer, if you can afford to use it. But digital is so much more economical:

Say I shoot 100 shots of film (typical event shoot)...

4 x 24 exp professional slide film - $30

Processing & mounting for 4 rolls - $50

That's $80 before I even begin to scan them to put them up on the web.

With digital, after the $2K outlay for a decent camera it costs NOTHING, so after 25 shoots I've paid off the camera and it's costing me nothing from then.

    • Well, in the same way that you can't tell any SUV from any manufacturer in any size category from any other one, "sports" coupes now all look identical. Stand back and squint your eyes and the Supra and the 400Z and the GR/BRZ things all look the same. I was just thinking last night, when sitting behind a Subaru CrossTrek, that I have no idea what it is, how it differs from an XV, or a Forester, or an Outback, or anything else Subaru offer, and I couldn't tell if it was supposed to be small, medium or large. I contrasted that to the good old days, where a HQ Kingswood had familial similarities to an LJ Torana, but there is no way that you could confuse them, and how a bit later, the HX Kinger and the concurrent Torana and the Gemini all had familial similarities, but you still could not confuse them. Ditto the ugly Fords and Chryslers of the era. But now, a RAV4 looks like a Kluger, looks like a Yaris/Cross/whatever they're calling those stupid f**king things, looks like every other Toyota that's not a Camry/Corolla sedan.
    • The Prelude doesn't look that bad without all that lens distortion in those pics. Makes it look disproportionate when it isn't. Actually I kind of liked it at the Osaka Auto Messe earlier this year. 
    • Pour in the highest octane, non-ethanol fuel you can get and see if the readout changes. If it's dead bang on 11% then I would question the sensor. Another quick test, just take it out and run normal (in an american accent) gas-o-line through it and see if the sampled ethanol or lack of changes.   United E85 here in the land of drop bears does vary a bit, I've had as high as E87 (could be water in their tanks too, who knows)
    • Yep. And if you ever do, you'll just have to deal with it then.
    • E10 is pretty tightly regulated in percentage. Too much and engines can't adapt. Every incentive is against them to have too little ethanol though. The more ethanol the higher the octane.
