your ride is always clean. you gotta do it like the floridians(vossen and ek9)....hang outside the your GS going 80+....have the driver hold your belt buckle:-) j/p.

can't wait to see more of your moving shots.

i looked at these and thought- these aren't rolling shots...

and i don't think people want to see the butt end without the wheels.

i asked ek9vboi the same question, and he said longer exposure allows you to roll at a safe 15mph and achieve the same effect.??

gotta read the camera's user manual for the manual settings.

If I cant manually adjust the speed then it seems like a stunt like that may be in my future

I was trying to capture the look of the deeper rear wheel.

Back to the drawing board

with long exposure (shutter), you can be going at 1mph and you will still get the rolling effect. the problem is always the camera, how are you going to hold it tight and steady with respect to the car.

i have been in more than a few professional shoots and also commercials so i know the rig they use to achieve that. but for people with just a camera, it's almost impossible to hold the camera steady wrt to the car for a few seconds when the car is moving.

so the other "easier" way to do it is to have the car move really fast and you move your hand to "match" the speed of the car while keeping the shutter reasonably fast

It's a Canon not a cannon.

Car looks good, the photos are not.

They were maxed but then I raised the front and the rear by 3 mm. Not much but i can still tell the ride is a bit nicer and I am getting more life out of the tires ( probably more the Michelin compound than anything else). also when the car is rolling there are people in the car and that will drop the car a bit more

Love your pics and car man, your collection on cardomain was actually a motivating factor in me picking up my own 3GS finally.
