If you haven't figured it out, and the sun does stuff you can worry about it. I'm not worrying about shit, sonny.:whistling:

+11ty!!! We have given you advanced 2 weeks warning now. Although i am a qualified spray-canner.

I'm sure i could mix something up to make your car stand out from the rest of them. I'll fly Jay over from SA and he can do some graffiti on your car too. It will be cool.

Either way, are you going to come to this meet and learn some sh!t or what? Select individuals are coming for a photoshoot. If you wanna learn/find out what happened to your car, you should come.

P.S. Matt - Don't forget to PM Owen and Nick also. More importantly Nick as he has the SAU banner and is more important. <3 you Owen.

<3 you too maen.

Not sure if I'll be able to get there, as I'm apparently $25 in debt to my bank, and have already borrowed $200 this month from family (Payday is on the 28th). Shit. Wait, graffiti on car? Ok, so far the only thing I've noticed is on my window there seems to be some kind of "off" colouring above my passenger wiper; although I haven't checked it out fully. I've had a damn good look at all the lights, checked my indicators/lights/tail lights (just in case you'd swapped the bulbs in the numberplate light or something), and no dice there. Looking at an angle, there doesn't appear to be any finger-marks in the dirt on the car (lols), although I might not be looking well enough. I looked over it on Sat all around; had it out on my lawn in full sunlight and couldn't see shit. Honestly, I know you guys have said I'd overlook it, and I f**kin well have.

Nooooooooo idea.

And now for something different...

In other news I'll write up that PM soon, just playing with a couple light paints of my car.

I've given up on Owen working out whats wrong... but I'm still not planning on telling him any time soon. Actually. If he rocks up at this shoot, or the next one I'll tell him. Only when all 3 parties are present though. It's only fair.

nice work Matt! im loving the second one. seems to have the most even spread of light and not as many hotspots. awesome work dude. although, only thing i'd do different is add some more light to the ground. kinda looks like its floating in space, although that could just be my monitor being dark? love the one above it too. how did you do the white part tho? im trying to work it out, lol. and got a shot of that graff by itself? (cant help myself, love graffiti, haha)

Hey guys, haven't been shooting much lately, but I got a chance to test out the ISO on my 5DMkII on Saturday night at a local club.

All taken at ISO3200 and with a 135 f/2L @ f/2 except the first one ~ ISO3200 70-200 f/2.8L @ f/2.8

Nice shots Lepper! You can easily see why ISO3200 is so useable, especially at web size. You could of cranked it up to 6400 and it still would look clean (at web size) and reasonably clean at full res.

Post more pics!

The black shadow is my mates shadow. A pretty model for not a model. Easy to direct. The white shadow is me with some post work. I don't think I was dressed to suit what was going on so I thought how about shadow vs shadow. I think it looks pretty cool. Did some boxing ones too, might try one of those tonight.

ah cool. thought it had to be done in post unless you got a perfect cut out of yourself, lol. nice work.

and wow Lepperfish, that 5d does perform well at high ISO's. although for live gig pics i like a bit of grit/grain.

Kids, I've got two ideas:

1. We start a mini chat thread in this section where we can discuss whatever, photography-related, so that the monthly photo threads don't get cluttered; and

2. We start a little friendly "competition" similar to the Canon Photo5 one, where we have similar (or the same) briefs and submit photos here based on that.

What say ye?

Lepperfish - Manly Fishos?! Thats 2 mins down the road from me, do you live around here? I live in Allambie Heights.

I like the plan Nick! Both of them would work. That way there would be a bit of chat in here, but not as much as this month lol.

Maybe a kind of "lounge" area to discuss everything and anything photography related.

And then get a monthly photo thread going. Winner gets SAU goodies like stickers or something and the yearly winner takes your stagea :P Hahaha.

Sounds good to me :P

    • Well it does have a motor with the same DNA as an Accord V6 motor. The J30A is a successor to the Tiger rice cooker C32A motor found in those cars.
    • FD RX7 I would probably marry if legal R32 GTR is toughest NSX looks like it's made from leftover Prelude and Accord bits  
    • When going to a suspension shop should I send them the default nissan settings or just let them do their own thing? I ask this because I have aftermarket rear camber arms and my car is lowered a bit (front end is basically stock after I change to those nismo bushes)
    • Ok sounds good, thanks for your help. Hopefully if I end up changing it to the nismo bushes I don't get that veering issue. I don't think there's a point in lubing up these bushes again. Weird that it it makes just as much noise with all the grease inside it versus without grease prior to removal. Bizarre.
    • Yeah, you don't need camber bushes on stock arms to make a car drive straight unless it's got another problem. F'rigsample, slide the thing into a kerb, bend the front subframe mounts a little....subframe is now twisted, shifted or otherwise in the wrong spot...and you need to do funky stuff with the wheel alignment to get it to drive straight. Maybe a little more caster on one side, or a little more camber. FWIW, I can have my camber off side to side by a half a degree or more, and either way, so more one side, or more on the other, and the car doesn't really want to pull to one side. It will definitely ride road camber differently, and want to track uphill (ie, towards the centreline when on the LHS of a normal crowned piece of road, like it should) or want to roll downhill (which it really shouldn't). But on fairly flat road surfaces, like the middle of a 3 or 4 lane motorway, a half a degree either way doesn't make a lot of difference. I sometimes do quite a few miles with my wheel alignment messed up, because I don't always get a chance to set it right again after a serious dismantling, before I have to drive it to work again. Like, a whole week's worth of daily shuffle.
