[Celicav]

Definitely great pics and nice stable of cars and bikes!

Awesome pics Art.
How do you like the camera so far?
Don't forget you can get an adapter tube and put a polarizer on.
It is 58 mm.

what do those do? i still have a lot to learn.

i absolutely LOVE this camera. the 12x zoom, the battery life, the picture quality ...everything is great. its a great starter camera without spending big bucks on a real dslr. probably the best bang for the buck in this type of price range.

one more... huge wallpaper size..

[tim86]

real nice pics... im glad that new camera is working out for u... your celica looks great in pretty much every pic too, looks really clean as usual... and that ducati is hawt.

Polarizer reduces glare from the object surface.
It will also increase contrast of the sky and make water surface clearer.
This is how you get a deep blue sky picture
Here are some comparison pics.
They are uneditted.
BTW, you will need a "circular polarizer", NOT "linear polarizer".

w/ polarizer, notice the windshield and hood

w/ polarizer, notice the clouds, sky color, and water surface

oh wow. now i have to get one!

[Coomer]

Yeah, circular polarizers rock. I also forgot to mention earlier, that it's harder to shoot a black car than a yellow one.

[malpaso]

Awesome pictures...

why no photos of the orange bike?

Actually, that would be a Scorched Yellow Triumph Daytona 675. And I'm suprised lagos didn't take any pics of it, with it being the best looking bike there! BTW, was a tripod used for any of those shots?

Haha! Buckle up for safety! Now he just needs a lap belt.

[lagos]

all the shots were hand held.

i didnt take pics of the other bikes, because honestly, i dont know much about bikes to know what im looking at..lol ducati looked nice tho.

[gt_driFFter]

Haha I'm just giving you crap because I will be buying one of those bikes when this year's riding season is over

As far as the tripod goes, from what I've read, I think it could produce some decent results. Of course, it just isn't always practical to be carrying one around.

[lagos]

yeah i plan on trying out a tripod with it soon. trying to setup a photoshoot with a few of my friends.

[Gary]

You don't really need a tripod for still object unless you are in bad lighting condition.
Combination of S3's image stabilizer + ISO setting + shutter speed setting should be more than enough.
But I do carry a tripod in my car
