    Been playing with my dSLR - still getting the settings right. Shooting in bright light is tricky!

    Myself:











    What do you guys think of the tails? They light up much brighter than what I had before, just to clear any doubts on light output.

            Yeah they're the ones. They didn't fit when they arrived - the mounting screws were all over the damn place. Had to mod them out to fit. Plus the lenses weren't that great either - bits of it was scratched and also not buffed properly. A bit annoyed!

            He's got them screwed into the licence plate!

            Thanks Preen - I'm 50/50 about them though... they look so dark without the lights on! My car's entirely black and white now, except for the rust here and there. Ah well, will probably rock them a bit longer before I sell them off.

            James, got it on Christmas Eve, right after I got paid haha. Bought the Canon 450D with the standard 18-55mm lens. Love it (even though it burnt a huge hole in the pocket)!

                      Nice photos Ray, try using a faster shutter speed this will let in less light with the standard lens well pretty much any lens and also use a low ISO like 100 for daylight it is what helps alot man!

                          hey ray is that the midnight tint spray stuff you can get from supercheap? I used that and it came out all foggy. probably just because I did a crap job lol.

                              Ah yes, low ISO! I've been using 400 throughout the day! I'll keep that in mind next time

                              And yeah, I bought the taillights that way. Had to tint my brake/parker/fog bulbs red - used Tamiya's clear red spraypaint that I found from hobby shops. Works great, and isn't affected by heat!!!
