Awesome pics (Its a Canon no surprise there ) and a very nice car.

accsuperstar, the S30 been discontinued for a while now, thats why you can't find it. Look into the S45 or S50 their even better.

You seemed to use a long exposure with narrower aperture in these pictures. They look consistently yellowish. I didn't know S30 can be tweaked this way (I have a G3).

anyways i took the pic in granville island..

the pic looks yellowish is because it's very dark there and we need to adjust the shutter speed to alot long exposures...
but it turns out great

Actually, the yellowish appearance is probably from the sodium halide lights around the harbor.

The S30 (as well as many other prosumer digital cameras) can re-set the white balance to reduce the yellowish appearance, especially under indoor lighting. You'll note that the rear pics with his headlights on shows what HID "white" looks like.

Those are very cool pics, chocodai. I use an S30 myself. It's a great little camera.

By the way, did you install hyper-white bulbs in your fog lights? Their color temperature is very close to the HIDs.

Where did u get it painted (mud guards)? how much r u paying for it? Did u buy the rear mud guards or u just painting the front one?

Nah, midnight is not a good time for a 30 years old man like me.
Either have to take care of my 2 year old in the morning or go to work. :'(

Talking I just bought a white TSX

I just ordered a white TSX, but it is taking FOREVER to come in. I was worried about buying a white car, because white usually isn't my color. But, when I saw another one on the road I loved how it looked. Great pictures. i'm SO excited

The new low end Canon PowerShot is the S45, and can be found at the same price as last year's S30, which I have. Very sturdy little camera.
