Got to shoot a friend's M3 over the weekend, CC please.
I was pretty happy with this shoot, one of the better ones since I started shooting. I think I'm improving with every shoot, haha.

Thanks!

maybe it's too early in the AM for me...or maybe i hang out on the sports forums too much, but are they all the tinyiest bit soft?

ya i think they are too. but you cant expect tack sharp when using 1/30 shutter speed without a rig haha

i dont htink theyre soft, i think theyre just out of focus. well 1, 2, 3 at least.

4 looks like its in focus, but soft. or slightly out of focus?

....what ever it is, good job, but they would be great shots if they were in-focus, and sharp!

keep practicing!!!

Yeah, I'm still trying to get that sorted out. At 1/40th everything seems decent, anything slower areas become soft; I have my AF point on the mirror as I shoot and most of the time I get sharp front ends and rear ends that are a tad soft.

I would love to start shooting with a rig, just can't stomach the chances of the rig coming loose and destroying a bunch of my stuff, haha.

I'm sure he checked my exif data.

very nice and clean. a tad hot (could just be my monitor) on some spots but otherwise a good set!

#1 would be my favorite, except for the unfortunate power lines. otherwise, they look good to me
