Hey guys/gals

I've just received my new car rig and wanting to get about 3 or 4 cars together one weekend afternoon at a private location to get some rolling car shots (5-10MPH max).

I'm a pro photographer in Leeds, going to do some on my car first but want to build up a bit of a portfolio

Cheeeeeers

Me me me me about time we had another photoshoot

Could do with some hints and tips on getting the most from the photos, I'm ok ish but would like to do better without having to spend a fortune on cameras etc

 

Hi Rich

What camera you using at present? Happy to give some advice where I can

 

Fujifilm S6500fd

I can get some decent pics like







Just looking for advice on going from good pics to great pics.

 

Hi Rich

The first thing is to try and understand light and how its working with your camera. Then taking a little more control over the settings.

I see in the bottom pic that the ISO is 200 which is a little low for unsupported tripod shots (where the shutter speed is 1/25 of a second). The aperture is very shallow here (f3.6) which means the optics aren't at their strongest (around f6.3 - f9 are better).

Bring it with you to either the shoot or the EOM if you attend and I'll give you some easy tips to help enhance your pics

 

That last pic was on a tripod lol but yeah I'll bring it with me

 

Fancy getting a GT-R in the shot or is it a Scoob only shoot?

No problem if not...

 

Sounds good to me - a good range of sports cars would be ideal

 

put me down then.........if you want a variety that is

I saw a GTR today coming down the A1M
in the outside lane.

Was that you Ian.

Hope I get my car back for the pics

Bez

 

Just spoken to my mate whos into photography and has a Golf mk2 GTI Track car, he would like to come along as well.

 

Nah mate - common as poo poo these days.

I regularly see 2 or 3 kicking around north Leeds including one with a chrome wrap - very bling....not my bag though

 

I would be up for this.

Bullit - noticed you have John's Rally MG there

When's it happening?

 

Lol yeah we took it to get some pics after we did some work on it.

 

Hi Tweaks

What car you planning on bringing please?

Lee

 

im up for this in the mini if it survives not going pop

 

Hi mate,its an s14a (don't shoot )

 

oh yeah tokyo drift baby

 

Cool!!

 

so when you thinking of doing this lee?

 

Thinking back end of April early May. I have access to a building / location in Sheffield (very urban) which would make a stunning backdrop for the cars (static) and provide decent surrounding area for some rolling shots

Once I get final numbers, I'll put up a selection of dates the building is available and we'll take it from there.

 

Hopefully I'll have my car back by then, its going for suspension work mid April so can't say whether it'll be done by then

 

I'd be interested if there is room.

 

some rolling shots with your bonnet up? haha

 

Only 1 issue - it's a bit of stretch from North Leeds and even if the car is clean, it won't be by the time I get to Sheffield....

Any locations that would suit in/around Leeds?
