yes Mr Dj - i want to see more pics of the cars - i really like those pics - so please - make time

well i managed to break my lens on my camera the other day thanks to a drawing pin and other events, result being the camera smashed down right on the front of the lens with my full weight on it - luckily (or not so!!) it was only the stock 18-55mm Nikkor lens so was not too expensive to replace, i have gotten replacement now and also ordered som funky close up filters to try and get some freaky images

warrior - do you also use flash as well as your light set up or are you getting enough light for flash free pics

I probably spent 3-4 hours, from setting my light box up, to taking 368 photos, eliminating the less favorable ones, processing them, then eliminating even more, re-sizing, and finally adding my dumb little border and sig on them.

Finnaly some one that takes time for these things as wel :mrgreen:

When I do a car model shoot I spend 0,5/1 hour shooting the pictures. After that you're easily spending more than two hours on the elimination, editing and resizing. Also typing a story and posting them easily takes a half hour.

That's probably why I post so less pictures these days and I don't like that.... So time, where are you?! :roll:

No, that's just the light from my light box setup. But, often times they're a little dull, so I have to brighten them up a bit in GIMP. I suppose you could use a flash, as long as it's not direct. In other words, if you have a diffuser on it. The reflections and glare from a direct flash just don't work.

yes i did rank it up and used the NORMAL EQ which is usually the loudest and it wasn't up to much at all, i also tried them on the std sansa fuze install - now that was quiet, turn on the RB though and diff story, haven't tried them with the N2 yet - maybe my ears are just worn down!!!

Check those ear for wax too haha ]so I have to brighten them up a bit in GIMP[/quote]

Ah we have a GIMP man here, i tried to get everyone in the office to use GIMP instead of having to get photoshop, i tell you there were some strong protests from people here (i shall refraining from naming them) and was eventually made to shell out the cash for original creative suite bundle

I have a cheap version of Photoshop, but have used GIMP for so long, I don't much care for it. Yep, I am a GIMPer. :wink:

Thanks. I'm tellin' ya, the N2, set on BBE MP, coupled to the FiiO E11, set on bass boost 2, with the B2's, is a killer combination. Not only does it sound good, it sounds DAMN good.

can you say the same with the clip+ instead the N2 ?

The Warrior Poet · **Posted:** Thu Jul 07, 2011 4:34 am

Hell yes, the Clip+ sounds awesome. I just didn't want to mess with any of the settings on my other players. They're RB'd, and I'm not messing with it. I tweaked it to my liking.

thanks for that info. though i dont like the rockbox, too complex for my use
btw, on the first photo you're reflected in the box when taking the photo

The Warrior Poet · **Posted:** Thu Jul 07, 2011 6:34 am

I didn't much care for RB at first myself. I had it on my Clip+, then took it off. Maderin put RB on his Fuze, and then I did. I got used to it on my Fuze, and liked it, so put it back on my Clip+. I love it now.

Yeah, I realize I was reflected on the first photo. That's what happens on a direct shot. I could have GIMPed it out, but already spent a considerable amount of time on them.
