Awesome rolling shot!

That's exactly why I'm after them. I know I won't get SERIOUSLY into this, but I'd like to take some cool pictures every now and then. Even though they're outdated, I'm sure that with some practice, I can take amazing photos with a used camera I picked up for super cheap. I'm not actively shopping either, just kicking the idea around. How cheap do you think I could find a D60 or D90 with a lens (or two)?

I like the D during. Okay the button location thing makes sense. I love going into best buy and playing with all their shit, then going and buying it elsewhere.

 

the point was the location of the D...but since it's always behind you, I can see why you'd be confused
No doubt, man...no doubt. I actually thought that too, now you can tell them you know a 17 year old that's used traditional photography too (Austin, Undying Dead Dreams).


No doubt, man!

 

I'm certainly not a mechanic, by any means. I just had my v6 accord for 6 years and now my TL-s for three months, so I only really know this platform and the s2000.

Photog by trade, though.

 

Quoting images so that they come to the next page.




Dude, these pictures are really great. I love the palm beach one and the bonsai garden one. Sidenote: I had a bonsai once and it died, pretty quickly.

 

SHhhhhhh!
No tears, just dreams.


you've been a great help with the forums in the past few weeks. thanks!

 

Check out KEH for great used gear and good pricing

https://www.keh.com/search/list?n=128&mfg[]=Nikon

Those are the nikons, and you can do a similar search for Canons. Pretty much everything you'd want.

 

Thank you, Vlad!

J, you bastid.

I'm 20. It says so in my bio.

 

Vlad, if you like the Japanese Garden, here is the set from that day:

Will definitely check those out when I get home tonight. Flickr blocked at work.

 

If it's Canon. Usually I get my used gear on POTN. Usually look at their market watch section for deals.


ps. don't turn out like Italiano.

 

Vlad, definitely listen to Austin and Jeremy...they have a ton of experience with D-----SLR


I just recently started taking pictures....the only and ONLY suggestion, I will give you is....play with your D------SLR.....

Tyler (penguie) gave me a great tip which is "if you get comfy in Auto modes, you will never use the Program or the manual mode"....thats why since the first day I got the camera, I have been shooting in Manual mode....


There were 3 videos that really helped me with my camera:

1> Nikon D3200 setup


its a longg video so take your time with it....but this is only a one time watch...


2> the triangle...aperture/iso/shutter speed



I keep going back to this video from time to time to better understand the concepts...



about what camera you want to go with...+1 on personal preference....

I got great reviews from Tyler (penguie) on the D3100 which he has...I found a spanking good deal on a D3200 package so went with it....

Good to see so many Nikon users...

On the sidelines, Nikons are becoming rarer and rarer everyday.

 

I play with my D all the time, shouldn't be too hard to add the SLR. Actually, on the auto modes comment. That' exactly how I was using point and shoots forever. During some of my travels, I started messing with the manual modes and was getting to the point of understanding how all those settings affect the picture. I will definitely keep that in mind.


I won't. The difference is that he's a dick and I'm actually really awesome and know everything about everything that you guys don't even know anything about.

 

He got a ban hammer again

 

Who's that?

 

a self entitled bastard.
he thinks because he shoots with a high end cam, that he is a pro.

Doesnt take criticism that well and lies.
so, once he gets a little critique on his photos, he'll edit them and upload the new edited photo to the same web location.

so, its as if his photos are always spot on.
but, we gave him those critiques

 

here's our Photog sub section
https://acurazine.com/forums/cameras-photography-44/

 

Ah sweet, I'll have to check that section out. Definitely one I'd be interested in.

 

From all the missing Flickr links, you must be talking about Italiano. I get it now.

 

 

J, here's another example of a slow shutter ghost. Shutter speed was faster than Vlad's though, just enough to completely blur but still able to tell what it is.

...
stop posting forza pics.

 

i think it was austin posting forza pics that got me confused

 

Undying, it looks like you take rolling pics the same way I do... hanging out a window.

So much easier than rig shots (plus editing photos REALLY sucks).

 

You assholes wish I was posting Forza shots.

I do! Best way to do it! lol

 

We have photo contests almost every month to challenge each other to look outside of the box. Im always up for suggestions from anybody to help out that section.

 

Hey, J, suck it!

Hey Austin, forgot to share this with you...
how's this for my FIRST set of rolling shots, while driving the S2000 and trying to figure out what to set my camera at to capture it.

LOL...not the safest way to do it, but came out okay, save for the damn dirty specs on the lens

dont click and drive

 

I don't think he even uses a high end cam, but yes self entitled douche bag

 

slow shutter speed you say Austin:


DSC_1742 by Anil Sadhwani, on Flickr


DSC_1735 by Anil Sadhwani, on Flickr

 

he uses a D7000.

 

That dirt on your photo is more than likely a combo of sensor and lens dust. Stopping down and shooting long exposures highlights the awesomeness of how easy digital sensors get dirty.

I hate it.

 

^^^

also I have a UV filter on the lens...I keep it on all the time and more for protecting my lens...

and somehow dirt manages its way through LOL...


the car was ,mighty dirty too....I was testing shorter shaft coils for ISC....so didnt want to wash the car before the install, wanted to wash it AFTER....

 

I didn't know the TL was rear wheel drive!!!!!!

 

Apparently everyone here likes the D....Camera

 

Brock is such a winner!
