My 135i (first shoot w/ 7D)

Well, I had about an hour to try out my new equipment.... This is the best that came out. I realize I have a bit to go. Any C&C is appreciated.

Nice images. For some reason the brightness or exposure kinda is a bother to me but im sure its just me.
Good shots. Ill be down in Cali beginning of February. Where im from. If you live by where you took these shots. Your near me lol.

nice....nothin like the lbc...and near me 2

Car looks a little blown out. I like the pics overall though.

what a beauty! the car is a bit over exposed when i tilt my monitor...you can actually see the lines in the car.

getting there

Want to buy another one lol

Oops, nevermind...mines a 335i (blonde moment ) Want to buy a white 335i to join it

Thanks guys,

Yeah I live about 5 minutes away, in downtown Long Beach.

Love the 135i. As stated, whites are blown out a bit but definitely a nice first outing with the 7D!

Im jealous of the car, the 7D, and the location (Im currently in Ohio).

I think it makes the most sense to have the 35i motor in the 1 series (for someone with no kids). I mean, they put this motor in the X5! The power to weight ratio of this car is great!

And as a big fan of most things CF, I love the diffuser!

And is that rust on the caliper (from sitting for a while after being wet)? or just some kind of lighting issue?

nice car.

im a noob to this also and was wondering how does he fix the blown out pic, is that a tool in photoshop that he can use?

and could he have fixed this issue by using a faster shutter speed or by having a bigger fstop or lower iso?

Changing the White Balance, shutter speed, lighting, lower F-stop (higher number), or can be fixed in Post-processing like Photoshop or Lightroom.

no not rust, just the lighting from that parking lot. it was a very yellow/orange lighting.

Yeah or just turn down my strobes.. I could have done a number of things.. my fault, and it wont happen again.
