These were done with 'shutter priority' with shutter speeds ranging from 5 secs to 20 secs with an aperture of f4.5 or there abouts. I wanted to play with the white balance and other little things that the Nikon D70 has in it's menu's, but the guys at my location turned the lights off on me... thats why theres only one kinda dark image with the pretty little lights on the trees :boohoo:

A D70??? You bastard! :Pimp2:

Though the last one was probably the best.

I'm getting a serious camera myself though the nightshots will not be as good. What do you think of Konica Minolta A200? Or the Pentax isx*d (forgot the name).

The above cameras will do the job,but Nikon and Canon is slr s.

Nikon have been running some good value packs with the D70 to make way for the D70s.I myself have got the D70.

Check:http://www.dpreview.com/ for tests on cameraes.

Good pics of the beast Rezz.

Are you doing any more mods to it?

RB26 maybe?

nice pics! pity about the front lip... i was interested also...

You can still get similar front lip spoilers from Yahoo Auctions Japan, and CHARGESPEED make a similar one, although I don't like the shape as much as the BoMeX one.

Btw guys, I really don't have a clue about photography, in fact a goddam chimp chimp.jpg could've fiddled around with the buttons and gotten a better result... I just did some different timed exposures and loaded them up in 'The Gimp' editing software and shapened and brightened them up. Thats all... no tricks.

I posted this in the Photo Diary, but I thought they might get lost up there... so:

Here we go... I got the trusty Nikon D70 out again:

This night shots is a bit vouyeristic... a young lady waiting for the train.

A 300mm zoomed shot 30 sec exposure at f22 with low fluoro lighting white balance adjustment. Oh... it's a HotWorks Factory 1/24th scale BNR34 Nissan Skyline GT-R Z-Tune.

Good timing eh? Hankyu trains passing each other on the Kobe line about 100m east of Hankyu Ashiyagawa station.

Random shot.

While I was taking the train shot, these choppers were circling overhead...

You should try to do some artsy shots with some of the modelcars.

I had a link sometime ago to a forum were some guy had taken some pics of scale model of a Honda R-bike and everybody belived it was the real thing.

      Kittens in first to claim dominance of the residence, then puppies later From past experience, the other way around can be problematic to say the least  Those weird "Dobby looking"  little kittens are not cheap....LOL

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
