2006 350Z shot

[ghetto waggon]

'ts been years, but I am back.

Took a crack at autophotography with a friends new 350Z.

In search of a stock 03 Orange MSP to do a similar shoot at no charge. Please give me a shout if you are in the DC area and would like to have that done!

Damn thats a NICE photo !!

Did you photochop the blur in there, or do you just have crazy focus skills?

no need for photochop, can be easily done with some adjustment to exposure speed

How about a smelly first gen RX-7 with a bunch of stickers on it?

Only basic editing was done in PS.
Most auto images are heavily edited, but I don't have the artistic abilities to do so.

Nice! What camera?

Yup...just use a relatively slow shutter speed while travelling at the same speed as the car you're photographing. Because the subject doesn't move relative to the camera, it stays sharp, but because everything else IS moving relative to the camera, it gets blurred.

Great job though...those kinds of shots can be tough to get (a lot of times you'll have not enough blur in the background, or the car will be a bit blurred).

you still have to hold the camera stably, though. the car isn't very sharp in that pic at all.

That pics look like the one of the pictures I took of my p5.

awesome pic, I love those 350Zs and G35s

I like it

Again, it was my first time attempting to shoot a car. The odds were against me- the sun had already set, was hanging out of the back of my stiff p5, the car was black, etc. That image is actually about a 50% crop, handheld at a very low speed. I'm suprised it came out.

I'm not exactly impressed with the stereotypical rig shots found on the cover of every auto magazine, so I guess I was just experimenting.

Jersey, you are the man. I remember 3 years ago, you were the one that got me hooked. This guy knows his s***!

The 350's getting a set of iforged wheels and a supercharger, so i'll attempt a reshoot when that happens.

Until then, DC Orange MSPs: get at me.
