Why oh why is there not a 4 door Mustang aka Falcon in the US. Just take the Mustang and stretch it please though, don't use the AU version. With slight body mods the Mustang would be a super sexy 4 door.

Your picture was composed better btw, but I had to find something on the internet

Nice pictures Seth. And then the constructive portion, personally with only a 5.6 bottom I would have shot at f11 and kept it all in focus. The 5.6 doesn't show bokeh to me but that the depth of field wasn't quite big enough. As for what it would look like at 1.4, here you go. Bokeh!

Take a step back. No rears, no dash speakers. Unplug that shit. Will just make it sound like crap. Front speakers will be whatever impedance you buy. No matter at all what the stock are since you have an aftermarket h/u.

Weird, since that post was quoted on the previous page it showed up on the previous page. The quoting period on the new forum is working a bit strange, I haven't been able to figure it out but regularly it won't let me do what I try. Thought this might be related.

Be careful with that. Washed out is worse than underexposed. Losing details in the blacks is acceptable to the eyes losing details in the whites not.

All prices from the BH Catalog that landed here yesterday.

Short & Portrait: Panny: 25 1.4 $600, 42.5mm 1.2 $1600 Olympus: 25 1.8 $400, 45mm 1.8 $400 Fuji: 23mm 1.4 $900, 35mm 2 $400, 35mm 1.4 $600, 56mm 1.2 $999 Long: Panny 35-100mm 2.8 $1300 Olympus: 40-150mm 2.8 $1500 Fuji: 50-140mm 2.8 $1600

*I left out Leica for obvious reasons although they are surely the best BY FAR

/\ Those all look the "same" so, start looking at more appropriate usage lenses for the difference.

Multi-use lenses: Olympus 12-40 2.8 $999 Panasonic 12-35 2.8 $997 Fuji 18-55 2.8 $700 (16-55 $1200) Sony ....BOOOO Canon ....??? Nikon 1 Mirrorless (10mm = 28mmFF) ...no thanks!

While I have also seen the Olympus shots and was amazed, I prefer the glass choices of other manufacturers....but then it is a premium as well, which now reaches towards DSLR. Like a DSL shop GLASS then the body. Pretty sure there aren't shit choices of bodies where there is good glass. Remember on a mirrorless that you multiply by 2x to get the equivalent full frame focal length. ie: 28mm FF = 18mm APS = 14mm MLess 70mm FF = 45mm APS = 35mm MLess 200mm FF = 128mm APS = 100mm MLess I picked probably the three most important ranges to pay attention too, with the first two winning unless you need reach.

New mirrorless is better bang for the buck than a used SLR. As for can you find used? Not sure, I have a glass investment so I have never looked.

This is the hop. Ribbing is normal

Why are you posting in such a new thread? Thought you forgot they were new...

Perhaps you should post while not looking in a mirror. Alzheimer's is not spelled old timers, but I suppose when you have it you forget it.

It is a local white balance or exposure or whatever you need. Tons of tools in lightroom to remove ANY blemishes.

Two words: Golden hour

Again something that is not possible in the instagram editing nonsense. Picaso is killer in comparison....and picaso sucks

Improve the overall light in the room. Shitty lighting is shitty lighting. If they are really beacons then you have to be careful underexposing the rest too much as you will lose dynamic range. If you get the rest right and they are just a bit washed out it is easy to change the exposure of the lights themselves (and only them if you want) in lightroom. Super easy in fact. I regularly doctor light sources to improve the overall image.

Nice. I googled it lol

Obviously when the lighting is superb you can skip that, but that is in about .0001% of all pictures I shoot.

The recommendations to overexpose a picture to use one of their filters is pucking stupid as well. ALWAYS underexpose. You can crank up the dynamic range in lightroom, you can't get detail back where it is washed out. That I also forgot Seth. Set your exposure down 1/3 or 2/3 before shooting. I use 1/3 for people and 2/3 to a full for landscapes.

I just checked and the most critical ones it doesn't. White balance adjustment is lame.

That is a joke right?
