Hey guys. If taking shots and you know your going to be taking pseudo HDR images would it be better to shoot them 1 or 2 stops higher exposure to avoid noise when adjusting exposure in photoshop? Or do you need that range of -2 -1 0 1+ 2+

If you are taking a single shot and you know you are going to make a single image HDR out of it yeah a stop or so brighter might be better as there is more info stored in brighter pixels.. little hard to explain but its called shooting to the right (you can read this if you are interested).

But yeah the important thing is the expose it so you capture the detail in the dark and bright areas - and in some cases this will simply not be possible with a single exposure - and then.. you'll have to do a proper HDR!

Why would you take 1 pic for a hdr image? If your intentionally wanting an HDR image and you're already there with your camera... why not take the extra shots?

I guess the only place you'd do it is if you took a pic, and thought it might look good as as afterthought, but if that's the case you're probably not going to get what you're after or had in mind anyway... Seems like a redundant thing to do.

It's hard to make an HDR pic not look flat and boring and lifeless as it is. Sounds like a Pseudo waste of time.

Might be a scene with heaps of moving objects and stuff

I don't think so Matt. Due to the nature of a HDR you will loose dark shadows and bright highlights. So to make photo not look flat you have to fix this afterwards. This is not hard to do if you have something like Lightroom. Its simply a matter of opening the tone curve and darkening the shadows - (drag left hand side down a little) and making the highlights a little brighter (drag light hand side a little up)

hdr in motion! good call

I don't mean they're flat as in just how they're coloured and lit, i meant more in general, I'd prefer a good normal pic to a good hdr 9/10. Occasionally they're awesome and do a great job, but usually it just seems to take away from what ever was the reason you stopped to take a pic. personal preference i guess. :)

IMO a good HDR is one you can't really tell it is a HDR!

      Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.

      Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.

      Howdy all,   I had my rb25det S2 rebuilt and finally started it today but have run into a few issues  Engine sounds like a a diesel easiest way to summarise like small ticking, gets louder when revs are slightly adjusted  The engine builder repainted the engine cover leaving no where for me to go off with lining up the CAS so have it as central as possible so not sure it that could be affecting it?, changed the gearbox fluid too but won’t seem to go into gear when running, and only 1 to 4 when off having a hard time finding 5th and reverse anyone got any ideas or a base for me to start off? much appreciated
