New Camera, New Pics! :)

Got a new camera, got an HP m415. Gotta say, it kicks the crap out of my previous camera.

Anyways, i managed to get a great pic of the car all shined up.

Thanks Everyone! Yeah im pretty happy with it. My last camera was about 5 years old, it was a HP photosmart 315, 3.1 megapixel, very basic, no optical zoom or nothing, and it cost me 400 bucks.

this new one is also an HP photosmart, 415, 5.1 megapixel, with all kinds of features, that AND a 256 MB card cost me less than half what my last camera did.

These things have definatly gotten better over the years. <grin>

Just curious, why do you say that? A little too much going on on the sides?

maybe ill see if i can hack the pic up and see what it looks like without the side stripes.

Yo slappy i think if you slap on a spoiler it will really give it that touch it needs in the back, especially since you have stripes, really think you need a spoiler to make it look meaner. If not get like a cobra Spoiler.

Thanks! Tell ya what, car photography aint easy. It is a pain to get the location, angle, and lighting right.

I keep her as clean as possible, i love the way she shines.

I just dont like the side stripes, to me, they look like saleen ripoff stripes, and I just think your car would look a lot cleaner without the side stripes. I think your car looks fine with the racing stripes, I just dont like the side ones.

Rofl, the thing on top is an xmass decoration my neighbors have out, the thing below it looks like a newspaper in a bag. <grin.

Getting that wet shine isnt hard if you just keep on top of it. i wax it ever 2 months with zaino, and i wash it at LEAST once a week to keep everything off of it. I also use these "glossier" microfiber wipes on it between washes to keep it clean.
The fact it is black means it shows dirt like nobody's business, but nothing shines like black if you can keep on top of it.

Thanks for the props!

Your stang looks f***ing great like it is. Love those rally stripes. If your like me. I can't afford new rims and stuff right now. So I'm stuck with what i got. Plus you did it yourself, like I did and that feels really good when I look at my car. Great job !!
