i’ve been working out the kinks in my rig setup for my camera, thought i’d share with you guys.
This is completely off topic but I think I met you at freshmen orientation at UB 4 years ago.
you did indeed, i remember you talking about your Beretta. offtopic no shit lol!
Very nice. First shot is the best IMO.
I’m guessing this is a suction rig?
yeah.
all of them have minimal processing (not including shopping the rig out, of course) except for the first one, which is actually 2 images combined.
I <3 rig shots
x2
anyone interested in having me do these for them when it’s nicer out?
does it hurt the paint at all? even a little?
when you pull the rubber cup off, it leaves a tiny circle of dust on the paint. it easily wipes away with a soft cloth or whatever. i’ve never had problems with it, and i’ve shot my own car with the rig too many times to count.
Not bad. I personally like a bit of a wider shot when i do em, but the longer the pole the harder it is to keep it clear. I use a 10ft pole and i dont think i could go much longer. 10mm lens FTW though.
Edit: Also Walker, it doesn’t hurt the paint at all. You have to be conscientious of what your putting it on, like when i did bueme’s evo, pretty much the whole thing is aluminum and it wouldn’t hold the weight. Same deal on Newman’s Lotus. Also i found that it will leave a indentation in clear bra’s, it comes out but you just have to be carful.
im not familiar with this at all which is why i ask cause i would be down for getting nice shots of the p-car.
Id be down to do a full set of the car, in which case i would def do a few rig shots.
lol way to jump in and offer your services in here.
i’ve been doing these since last fall, but i’m still learning. sucks having to work around a cropped body with 18mm focal length. being a poor engineering student sucks.
we could do his with mine ian! 
edit:
lol i apologize ian, sick shots none the less
Negative. Shooting one set of one car takes long enough. Now im going to stop ruining this guys thread, he does great work and deserves to showcase it. 
I am kind of curious how much you have to chop out of the photo. Can I see some un-doctored photos?
disregard the owner of the car doing a quick spray wax on his car. the rig is visible on the right
fucking around later: (yes, i know it’s blurry)
1 and 3 look nice…you need to either drive faster or do longer exposures. Needs more blur.
you’re absolutely right. i can usually go up to 2 or 3 seconds, even longer at night if i want. however, with a blazing Florida sun setting on me, even with an ND and CPL stacked, i still had trouble with overexposure even at a quarter second.
