so during lunch i looked at my RC picts i took last night and noticed several areas i want to fix. first is lighting, im going to place one more incandesent light to the right of my camera to give tad more illumination around the front driver side tire, also will remove all items near the shooting area to rid reflection on the car's door and panel (like my synth-keyboard! ) and will try DOF that will give me closer to 30cm.

36mm f/7.1 from about 1m (iso100) - aim near headlamp/taillamp
42mm f/9 from about 1m (iso100) - aim near headlamp/taillamp

try this again. nono, im not mad. hahaha

I really need to start shooting in manual mode, and need to take the time to understand aperture/ISO/metering and how it effects my shots.. Auto can only take me so far.

Also what program are you using to add lights like that ken? Im just using a trial version of lightroom 3. Maybe i should download CS5 already, co-worker gave me a very nice book to read for CS5!
