I finally replaced the battery in my remote trigger, so I messed around with the lights for a bit waiting for the delivery guy ;)

Here's a shot I managed to get.. There are a few things off, but I like the direction the picture is headed in :D

What do you think??

Nice clean shot! although the seats being not being set the same kinda distracts me. i would have just reclined them all the way back to get them out of the way.

The light on the interior looks good. All that white in the windshield bothers me a bit, though.

I love the carbon on the Z4s! What lens did you use?

I just picked up a 10-22 for some interior photos. I may go mess around with some more interiors today.

Yep! that and the distortion are the main things I dont like, I will definitely be doing that next time!

Thanks! It bothers me too, but I didnt know what to put instead. I was trying a few gradients but none of them seemed to work IMHO :oops:

I used a 17-40L on a full frame. I used to have the EF-s 10-22 on my 40D, and it was THE most fun lens to use. Its very capable!

Maybe a pale blue gradient to mimic the sky? Or a real sky. Or just shoot something way OOF & try that?

Very sharp. I'd like to see something outside the car, but hey, for interior shot it's great.

The seats being different heights is distracting to me too. I like seeing just the white outside the car (black would do it too).

Nice shot! Only a few nit picks:

I agree about the seats being at two different levels. just recline them out of the way next time. Also, you cut off the passenger wiper with the white on the windshield.

The lighting is good! Maybe just some lens correction in post so that it doesn't look so distorted, and you should be good to go!
