Farting around out in the rain today, playing with diff settings on my camera...

The lighting is a little bright making some pics fuzzy..

Eh they look ok i guess.

I like how you have it debadged w/ just SS badges on it. that looks really neat.

I would remove the front plate, but I can see the want and need to follow the law, esp. w/ a driver.

pay all that extra money to show off the personalized plates and not show em both off, thats a waste

Canon A520 powershot. Yeah it had the front plate bracket on it when i bought it, so it would have 3 large holes in the bumper if i took it off.

It ran a 14.02 @ 100.33 with a 2.2 60 foot a few weeks ago. It would run mid 13's with traction.

I thought thats what you said last time. What settings were you using? I have that same camera and those pics(and the car) look great for a daily user.

I couldnt tell you exactly what exposure settings iwas using, but i lenghthed it just slightly, and set it to the portrait setting. All i did when i cropped the pic was did a auto contrast and color and saved it as 300-DPI instead of 180.

I need to do it when there isnt so much overhead light i think though, i was getting alot of glare that made it fuzzy

Looks good, the reflection on the ground in the first pic looks bad.

awesome pics....

Canon makes great cameras, just a lot of settings to go through and figure out. Just play with it till you get the outcome you like the best.

Thanks everyone for the kind words!

What settings do you use for the rolling shots to keep the object in focus, but the background blurred??

I'm using a Cannon Rebel XT, so I set it to AV (Aperture Value) with a lower f-stop around 8 or 9 i think. I wasn't paying too much attention to the settings since I was driving while shooting.
