Well on another forum i frequent a member brought a good thread about taking pictures and asking how and what cameras to use. And examples of pictures taken by fellow members and the camera they used.
So here's my submission: Following pictures were taken with my Konica Minolta Dimage X60 5MP + 12" Mini Tripod. (http://www.steves-digicams.com/2005_reviews/x60.html) ***Tips: Play w/ angles, try taking a picture from ground level (on the floor), use Photoshop only to adjust lighting (contrast/brightness), try not to use flash when in dark situations try using artificial lighting, get a tripod (no matter what size) steadiness counts, to get those light streaks at night dont use flash and have a steady shot, good practice is taking pictures of inanimate objects, that's all ive got in my photo snapping arsenal*** (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/PICT3772-1.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/PICT3771-1.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/PICT3780.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/PICT3768.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/PICT3767.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/Azusadownhill2-1.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/PICT3680.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/AzusaDrift.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/JPnDLO914.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/HachiModel.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/Targa.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/IMG_3601-2.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/PICT0022.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/TeamNarpSM.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/PICT0404-1.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/PICT0045.jpg) (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/PICT0008.jpg) |

Sometimes point and shoot cams will give you a good shot but they often agravated me. You have to wait for them to turn on and then focus and then trip the shutter. Too much waiting for my taste. I had to move up to a DSLR. At first I got a D50 then when I talked my way into shooting for Mazdasport Mag. I got a used Nikon D1H for $500. Super fast (5 frames per second) super fast start up and no waiting for the shutter to trip and excellent quality. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I shot the Grand Prix of Houston and got some awesome shots with $100 lenses. Equipment isn't everything but if you want to have consistently good shots, buy good equipment. And yeah angles are your friend! Here are some shots of the race. Attached thumbnail(s) ![]() ![]() |
