Who the hell is still on dial up?

Met up with AsianRicerChick and did a photoshoot, which was cut short from mall security

 

Sick shots. Love your kit.

 

i like that alot.

 

I like the shots... What body/glass are you using?

 

wow great pics.

 

not bad looking amber sidemarkers.

what coils are you on?

 

Not my car, I just took the shots. The car is AsianRicerChick's. This one's mine:


Canon XTi / EF 28-135mm IS.

Again, not my car, but I believe AsianRicerChick is on HKS coilovers. Not sure if it's Hypermax I or II.

Thanks for the comments dudes, even though it's not my car

 

One more question... Sorry to go OT... You took these in raw or jpeg?

 

Always shoot in RAW... always. It's like DNA for a digital picture. You can change information such as camera settings. If you are shooting with a Canon DSLR like the Rebel XT or XTi, make sure you load DIGITAL PHOTO PRO as you can adjust alot of in-camera settings and edit RGB for your RAW shots.

You might want to look into Apple's Aperture or Adobe's Lightroom. They add extra processing options for RAWs, and manages pictures.

Why is photo management so important? Because when you take pictures, you want to bracket your shots with settings and different angles. I probably only use 10% of the shots I take and keep the rest for reference or in case the shot grows on me.

RAW Vs. JPG

What also should be mentioned is that the JPG format is a compression process to manage picture size (make the memory size smaller), so it is a "lossy" format. In fact, if you dabbled with image editors and exported to JPG, that there is usually a slider allowing you to choose the amount of compression. Obviously, the higher percentage produces a picture containing lots of pixelation. The TIFF format should be used if the camera allows, as that is a "lossless" format.

Of course, this all goes out the window if you don't adjust / touch up your photos. If this is you, just shoot in JPG and forget about the above.

 

Absolutely beautiful!

Hate to sound like a noob, but what body kit is that?

 

Those long exposure shots on the bridge are beautiful! Good work. I bought a D40 a while back just so I could take some pics of the Z, but never use it. Those pictures are ALMOST motivating enough to make me wipe the dust off it, but its naptime...

 

WOW!!!

Those are some very nice shots! very sharp! oh yeah, its a nice car too

 

Sexy Car, I have the same kit. Very nice work on pics.
