Stepping the photos up...MB Wallpapers

[speedminded]

Aiming to produce a better quality photo, a friend brought his gear out for me to test on a 2010 Mercedes-Benz C300. Equipment is a Nikon D700 using a 24-70 f/2.8 and a 70-200 f/2.8 VR. My shots but it's his gear and he assisted so I gave him credit too. :camera:

Awesome pics. You amaze me on how you are able to get great angles and detail in your pictures. Car looks great as well.Photos of cars are all about the lighting, angles, reflections, shadows, etc...doesn't take a "fancy" camera unless you want the ability to make high quality poster sized enlargements.

Awesome shots. How did you like the 70-200 f2.8? I was thinkin about pickin one up in the next week or soIt's nice having a variety of focal lengths, my personal lens collection includes a 50mm and 300mm prime so anything between the two is virtually uncharted territory for me lol! I've never directly compared it to Canon's 70-200 f/2.8L IS so I can't offer a true critique, it easily fulfilled my expectations though :goodjob:

Reps cause its a Benz and not a fucking BMW...

VERY nice shots dude, your wanting to go nikon now huh :DHa! I'll use any camera that has a bigger sensor than mine, don't care who makes it lol! When you shoot for over 12 hours a day at a track handheld without a tripod then you want the camera that best fits your hands and you're comfortable using...for me I still prefer Canon's pro bodies more! On a tripod, where you never touch the camera other than to adjust a few settings it's all the same...just another tool from the tool box.


and Now I will post... OMG!!!! That pic is dope! I was less impressed with the others.Thanks! I may post the full 1280x800 of it but thought I would try it with the 2.85:1 aspect ratio first.

Here's the exact same version of the first one but shot a hair higher and used the 70-200 instead of the 24-70. Compositionly (is that a word?!) this one may be better because the ceiling isn't cut off by the roof as in the first one. There's also 3 different colored lights, from halogen's purple hue to fluorescent's green so I made them b&w.
