DSLR Owners Unite! (56k? Are you kidding me?)
Decided to tinker around with an led light that dad uses for his video stuff. Originally I was taking pics of my car since I recently washed/waxed it, but they weren't turning out as well. So...I decided to shoot the 1098.
Please forgive the background, keep in mind I was just playing with the light, not trying to get a magazine shot. Critique is welcome as always.

those top fuel shots are awesome. what settings do you guys recommend for a dark setting with low light and a few action shots. im taking pics for my go go bar a few come out good and a few too dark or blurry.
the settings my using are:
flash mode -fill-flash
autofocus mode - single shot for the steady poses and automatic for rapid and action shots
iso sensitivity - 3200
fstop around 4 - 5

Thanks. I ran into the issues of not Getting the night shots I wanted. Pitch black trying to capture something going 300mph in under 4 seconds is tricky.
I'd recommend buying a 50mm, or 35mm. I owned both and they are amazing in low light.

I didnt even notice the bush, the leading lines of the building, and the bridge drew my eyes directly to the city.
I did a small shoot tonight, and dabbled around with my sb-600 off camera. I think I did ok for a first timer, but could get lot better with more experience, and another flash. I welcome critique and tips. Thanks.

Couple I took today. An old bridge built 1898 in the middle of Indiana, and the view off of it:

I drove past it at 1pm today, so lighting wasn't ideal, but I did what I could with it.
