Ken, Fire... thanks for the props. Ken, I will have to look at that site shortly. I wonder how it sounds compared to my Invidia

Nitex, awesome shots. Your food pics make me hungry. I don't know if my D60 has panoramic

Beach, it seems like everyone's family is from Iowa... lol.... I might be the only Asian guy in this whole state..... lol.

Pedelg, nice pillars... just like mine!!!



So at lunch, I finally got a chance to kenchan my Z to meet a few folks... I took a few pics there, but then took more at a local park and made friends with some geese... 'tis ok as long as they don't doodoo on my ride, I will let them live... hehe.

Here's some shots to prove to Ken that I still have my DSLR

Thanks full! I think those three colors are the most dificult Z colors to capture. Morning light rocks!

Thanks Nitex!!! Water + bright sun + white car = hard to get exposure and filtering just right...

^^ yes, ty beach! Looks great. One thing im noticing was over-bright metering and exposure in most shots. Im going to try to find a filter before i move on to another full on DSLR. Its nice have such a small camera but price is right there for something like a T2i/T3i.

I do have control over this with PASM modes on the NEX 5.. I guess i just need to keep tweaking it.

Don't even know if anybody makes such a thing that isn't a radio/cd/satalite touch screen combo. I want simple. LOL
thanks Fire... yah no problem, i ordered a lexar 8GB USB drive for cheap so i should have that all fixed by next Tues. i found a 1GB drive im not currently using so i put that in my G and borrowed the G's USB drive to use on the Z.

you might be interested in getting a doubledin HU and just swap the entire thing; that'll give you nav, CD/DVD, USB drive playability, sat radio, rear view camera, etc. personally i dont really use nav so i just got a cheepo garmin and modshack-mounted bracket. with this i can mount either my droidx's or the nuvi as it's using the same universal mounting ball joint.

i was just doing practice shots today in raw + fine jpeg format. i wanted to compare how much more control i would have on the editor's side in extreme lighting.

i found out that there's really no magic to raw. if the exposure is f-ked up it's just as bad as doing jpg editing using levels, saturation, and some sharpening, brightness recovery. honestly my goal is to hit the shot right from the camera and do very minimal editing so im going to just use jpeg-normal format for now. it's good enough for me.
