    Upgrade or downgrade ??

    My only experience of 500's was a Competizione in an autosolo, and I was quite surprised by how capable it was. The clio is more of a classic hot hatch - Big engine, very little of anything else, whereas the Abarth is much more modern and sophisticated. I'd say it'd be more about personal taste...

    The "Ive taken a pic and I kinda like it" thread

    Escort. Jets At Treloy Love my 70-300 (aka 105-450), for a cheap lens it's great if you want to see if a helicopter pilot is looking at you, lol.

    RS Tuner - ECU issue

    Yeaaah, you want to have a fully charged battery. Before ECU mapping I went and took the car for a good blast before trying a write - obviously that's not an option now, so you'll need it hooked up to a charger. Has it written 0000 0000? I had that a few times, I think I unplugged from the OBD...

    My friend's modified ED30 (Love/Hate)

    I've just noticed the rear diffuser, lol. When I say diffuser, I mean ornament. Diffuser implies that it actually does something.

    Photo help with a bridge camera

    What modes are you shooting in? Any photos you can share? Auto modes tend to bump up the ISO a lot, which kills quality. Also make sure of course that you're shooting in full resolution etc. I don't really believe that bridge cameras can't take good pics, they're limited compared to DSLRs, but...

    Yep, well both really. It's a fluid head so built for mainly video. I have a diddy tripod for when I want to get low down.

    Photography Chat and Questions Thread

    I don't use Photoshop, I use GIMP, so I can't be sure, but I think I've read before about it not being supported by PS. Could be wrong. I like the sorting in VNX too, if I'm shooting cars all day I can batch different groups of photos of each car together and after adjusting them all I can...

    If photoshop accepts .nef straight in then winner winner. Make the adjustments in PS.

    HOU - Rust in peace

    Yeah, I needed it gone and I felt sorry for the bloke as he'd travelled the length of the country to find that it was running on 3 cylinders. I'd have sold it for rather more otherwise. It'd been up for a while with very little interest too.

    It's worth trying to use the adjustments in ViewNX as well, since the flexibility in adjusting exposure, sharpness, contrast etc are what you shoot in raw for in the first place.

    Had to make way for my St. Bernard. I did offer it around at the time.

    Photography Chat and Questions Thread

    I'm not sure, but I would say that Photoshop doesn't accept raw .nef files off the camera, they have to be converted to JPEG first using a different program. Certainly that's what I do. Use this program fella; http://downloadcenter.nikonimglib.com/en/products/166/ViewNX_2.html Once you've...

    I don't think anyone can blame you for it landing in your lap in an unsavable state, I wouldn't worry too much fella. It's just that it's like putting your trusty golden retriever down, y'know, the one you grew up with.

    My thoughts with HOU. All the effort of fitting a ph2 interior to have it all ripped out.

    Leica Q

    Any full-res shots? Looks nice, although it's something I'd never really get much use out of personally due to always being far from what I'm shooting.

    Insurance companies who mirror your ncd ?

    It's mental. You could have made no claims for 10 years on the first car, but it's completely ignored for the second one (unless you pay to have it mirrored, and then only if they let you) Yet, if you crash one car, suddenly NCD applies to both now, so you lose the NCD on both. Scamming c***s...

    First Ever Round Of Bristol Motor Club Clio Cup Tomorrow

    Worked it out once, hillclimbs are more expensive in terms of £ per second of track time than F1 for a season in the Westy, lol

    The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

    Is it really a spot when it belongs to someone you know? Well, who cares. It's fairly rare and it's rather fruity (500bhp on the fast map, only weighs 850-900kg)
