Preview shot of my new photoshoot.
Here's a teaser gentlemen...
More updates this week....
My friend complained how my car was too black and very hard to get lighting to actually see my car for night shots.
Result of 30 seconds exposure...hahah

the higher the ISO = the less "sharp" the image is due to noise. higher ISO's use more power as well, contributing to the noise or "graininess" that you see on some shots. but higher ISO's reduce the amount of time needed to properly expose the subject (shorter shutter speeds) needed to get the proper exposure. again, its counter-intuitive, as shorter shutter speeds sometimes dont get as much light on the subject (this isnt the same "light" that is properly exposing the subject), hence you get a dark image from time to time.
the solution is two fold - use full Manual mode or bracket your shots. when you bracket, you shoot the same subject 3 to 5 times at varying settings (overexposed, underexposed, proper exposure, etc). you then can do a composite picture where you combine the highlights, shadows and details to get a "properly" exposed photo (similar to what HDR is all about).
the OP said that the shot was taken at 30 seconds. from experience, i can say that the camera was set at a low ISO (maybe ISO 100), hence the dark subject. now depending on the camera, 30 seconds may be the maximum time he can keep the shutter open, or it may have a manual mode, where he can increase the time (maybe about 2 mins) if he wants to keep the detail (avoid grain/noise) and get a brighter, more exposed subject.
or he can set it at a slightly higher ISO (maybe ISO 400), and experiment some more. Im almost positive that an increase in ISO (or longer exposure time) would yield a brighter subject. that or he can use a flash. that works too

Just awaiting the rest of the shots from my friend...
Here's another one from that day. It was kinda a 3 car photoshoot.
I will start a new thread to show you guys all the pics when I receive the rest.
My friend said my car shoulda been in the middle in this shot, but I didn't listen at the shoot when he told me to move it. =P
I guess it's too dark for the corner.

But from the rear end, the TL looks more narrow.
Maybe I should compare it next time I come out with him.

next time you may want to try and focus on the car and not the back ground then maybe you will get better resluts. also a longer exposure time would also help. that and bump up the ISO.

10 seconds?
It was actually 30, my friend edited it and took it. Like I said, I don't know anything about cameras and photography, I just told you what I heard.
By the way guys, here's another picture...

I wouldn't know =P
But please don't accuse me of "lying" just because I got something wrong.
Not everyone is as good as photography as you are.
Educating someone is one thing, accusing one of lying is another.
I respect you for your knowledge, for your car, and photography.
But I do not respect that kind of attitude.

Very nice shot!
Where did you take this?
This looks like you are in the burrard bridge area taking the pic of downtown from the vancouver side.
Am I correct?

I guess I'll be there for some photo shoot next time!
