What's up guys! I finally made time to do a couple shoots with my car to enter into the Scion F-Stop contest. I submitted these this morning but wanted to run it by you guys to see whatcha think! BTW i'm pretty noob to the photography scene but have heavy influence from those import car magazines (especially the moving car/rig shots). Let me know what you think! Comments appreciated!

Nice man.

Meh, they are composed well for the most part ... but they just aren't sharp. Not as sharp as they could be. And they look a little over processed.

Maybe they would be better if you were shooting with a Nikon ;)

 

yeah, lil blurry but cool shots.

my friend Tung Le is running as well.
entered few of my rigs we did.

gluck.

i like this one though:

 

when do they announce the winners of that cuz i entered a while ago... the only one i like is the one with the chick in it the lightings really good there

 

bummer the action ones are blurry. get yourself a nicer camera. you have an eye.

 

haha thanks for the comments guys.. a lot of people are telling me to go nikon! hah. yeah i know my shots are a little blurry but that's the best i could do with a kit lens and no IS.

 

did u tell ur girl to pose for u??? hehe

 

dude nice pics..but what is this thing your running for i never heard of it before

 

The XTi is a lot of camera, very capable ... it really is just a matter of using the correct settings. The important thing to remember, especially because you do not have IS, is that you can ALWAYS fix a noisy image, but you can't fix a blurry image.

You are much better off shooting ISO1600, have a sharp image, and fix the noise later in post processing.

Good luck!

 

Thanks for the tips! i've been shooting at ISO800 this whole time. its my first time submitting/shooting pictures so i appreciate your comments :D
