The photography is badass but the car is weird looking... I dont like it. Too many add ons. Way too much going on. Hood pins, louvers, scoops, stripes, badges, chrome...

I like it. I agree it's a little busy but I like it overall. The one thing I hate about these and all new stangs is the e-brake. It's annoying. I don't know why but it's annoying and distracting.... Nice photography though. Camera specs?

If you haven't already, using strobes/flashes in those lighting conditions will help with the image quality.

i've also been saving up for a vagabond II and 3 ab800's, but i decided to wait for the release of the new abmax640's (eta july 1). i may or may not opt for the abmax640's, i may just get the ab800's. waiting for reviews on the abmax's.

are you using any nd filters? looks pretty bright outside. i find i have to use a 3 stop nd when i do my rig shots on a bright sunny day.

oh, and nice work as always.

Yes, I'm using a ND Filter. I'm actually having to stack it on top of a CP filter. Sucks, but you do what you gotta do in this lighting.

Thanks Calvin.

i've tried that, too. but i get a lot of vignetting when i do that and shoot at 10mm. i just don't like the frame when i zoom in to around 13-14mm. do you correct your vignetting in photoshop (ACR)?
