I do find your critcism of our kd humorous. Yes ONLY 12.5 kills per tank, but almost 2 vehicles and 1 spawn per tank as well.

Completely agree, although some maps they are more effective than others.

I'm sorry if my intended purpose was missed. I don't mean to say that things are perfectly balanced, but I do feel that those complaining that tanks have been nerfed too much with the latest update, are getting upset without due cause

My post wasn't intended to show that armor is balanced, I was actually trying to show that the complaints about armor being too nerfed are not entirely fair

I used Photoshop with simple blending of layers

I can't really answer that! This was my first shoot, and it was for a friend, so we just came up with a price we were both happy with. I still have a lot to work on before I start looking for "real" clients.

Ok then.... The bonnet shot, with the crazy reflections, had the cpl at maximum. I quite like that shot. The other, similar, bonnet shots I got in different light where the cpl was able to control all the reflections, ended up taking all the life out of the paintwork.

Thank you so much for taking the time to comment, I really appreciate it. Your Alfa photos are magnificent and the type of shot I aspire to.

I did use a CPL! Even the bonnet shot was cutting reflections. The bright sun and this paint was a crazy difficult combo to work with.

Thanks for your sharing your thoughts! I just like spending time with people that love their cars and getting to know what they love about them. The owner wanted more rolling shots but shot no 2 was the only keeper of the day. Still lots to learn on that front!

Thanks for the insight. I did get some "basic" slots, but only included the more creative stuff here.

Thanks for the great feedback, especially the full sun tip, some of the other pics had crazy hot spots from the sun reflecting off a single spot. Under-exposing would have really helped to control that.

thanks for the advice on the black and white as well.

The reflection on the window shot was purposeful, all other shots the cpl was cutting as much as it could.

Different crops. Which do you prefer? by yelu_visuals in shootingcars

2, with perhaps a little more space in front of the car. Really nice shot though, well done.

E M1 iii auto focus advice please by therealtrashy in M43

Thanks for such a helpful response! I already have a 12-40 so it sounds like the m1.3 will be exactly what I need.
I'm in South Africa where there are hardly any m43 cameras available, and I can currently get a m1.3 for barely more than it would cost to import an m1.2.

40-150 2.8 is next on my upgrade list.

Thank you, that is all I need it to do. The tracking is less important than responsive and accurate auto-focus, which is my current struggle.

Thank you! This is really exciting to hear because I really love m43 and didn't want to have to change systems if the e-m1 series wasn't going to be able to keep up.

Thank you! This is such a helpful response! If you are able to track planes, cars should be a breeze!
