On a proper track day, then it's fine to pull in and have a word etc. Problem with the Track sessions Graham went on is, by the time he's pulled in, the session would be over :/

Oh and I also have is it the macro filter? or something? The plastic shroud that goes over the end of the lens (Like an umbrella ) I've not used it as it's only for the Tamron lens

Slow upload speed in this house - Uploading now (1st time I've used drop box) But I think this is a link to one of the images... Once they've uploaded hopfully I can get a folder link https://www.dropbox.com/s/v13wkzkqkb0x7lv/IMG_2534.JPG?dl=0 The Tamron lens is - LD DI Tamron AF 70-300mm 1:4-5.6 TELE-MACRO (1:2) A17, With a macro and normal switch Maco - 180-300 (I'm literally listing what ever is on the side of this, I have no clue ) I think this might of been taking with it - Haven't used it much as it's like a telescope, but it does seem to have a more clearer image. This one is with the 55mm lens This on with the 70mm lens I think it's all just a learning curve for me, as I was on fully auto, but over the past couple of weeks I've been experimenting and understanding more and more. I'm sure these lenses you suggest are awesome - But it was hard enough me spending spare money on the camera instead of the car , going to be a tough choice between mods and camera toys! Managed to pick my camera up off Gumtree for £200, theose 2 lenses, some lens filters (yet to use as I have no idea which mood/scene/setting they're for) 2 batterys, sd card and a backpack

So I do - What exactly does the IS do? I know it's an image stabilizer, you can just point me to google if that's easier Just waiting on some photo's to upload with my other response.

I'm currently using a Canon EFS 18-55mm 0.25m/0.8ft (it's what came when I bought it (2nd hand) ) Going to be very hard to create a shallow depth of field with that kit lens unfortunately. Have a look for the 50mm F1.8 it can be picked up very easily. Also, what 18-55mm lens is it- theres various types, does it have the IS on it? My favourite lens which was a reasonable price was my 28-135 USM IS lens. This is my camera - Seems that is does have IS on it. Always shoot in full manual, which means you can control your aperture size and shutter speed. When you have the lens at full zoom it will always be at f5.6 for this one. You can buy lenses with fixed aperture throughout the zoom but these are costly. Search 70-200mm IS L (my dream lens) What camera are you using also mate? Canon EOS 450D Only from what I've listened to on videos - Aperture is in simple terms, 'the size of the hole in the lens' So this can be adjusted to increase or decrease the amount of light let in?Now is Aperture the F numbers? or is it the 1/80 ratio? as if it's the ratio numbers, then I've had that on auto by the looks of it As I think that balances out to what F setting I have it on. That picture is incredible Neil! I was never in to photography etc, only bought the camera as I was sick of my iphone photos and wanted to be able to take photo's of my mod updates and photo's of events throughout the year....But I really am enjoying this and getting into it a bit too much I could see my self spending some money on this hobby....

Just flicked my camera on, Goes down the F5.6 - Now will it go lower on different settings? As I'm currently shooting in AV mode. Or is this just down to lens/camera?

Exactly the shot I'm after! - Man in the red coat

It's just blues/greens and red I see a different shade/tone to others, so it's hard for me to get those right - I.e. I over did it on Amy's I've been told. Prom pic? - If you're referring to the 3rd image, I intentionally enhanced that one to bring out the blue in the sky. I've only been adjusting it minor, as I was watching a few videos online about how you will get dead pixels on over exposed shots etc. And I'm shooting in RAW now I'll have a look thank you, When I said cheap, I didn't mean a £20 flimsey thing, just that I didn't want to pay £200 for say something that £50 could do what I'm after. (Random prices btw) - It's not something I'd use all the time, but would like to have one for certain photo ideas. My camera's a Canon EOS 450D I think some of them are a bit grainey from Incarnation because I upped the clarity a bit, just mainly because for me, the lighting was dull due to lack of sun and mostly cloudy. So just wanted the photo's to pop a bit more. Another reason as you can see in the images below...The Sea had to much white and you couldn't actually see the ocean. If I could of captured the ocean without enhancing the car I probably would of had that picture. My final question of the day is... Focus points. Is there a setting or technique to allow the camera to focus more on the central point whilst bluring out the rear/surrounding area, or is that done in photoshop?

appreciate that. But fear not. I got something else lined up for this season, stickers will be removed and a new design will be made #teamtarmac

Ya your face is better behind the camera instead of in front That pic been enhanced after ? Paintwork really shines/ pops Tweaked a little aye, Was a dull day, so had to bring the colour out a little. cheat! :p Blame the weather

Bumpity bump. Okay, so from a few comments and shares, think it's safe to say my photo's are improving I've now been taking all of my photo's on the 'AV' setting. Within this, I have now Dropped the ISO to 200/100 (Tried 100 at Brighton, Incarnation) I think the main feature I've been using is changing the white balance on the camera when shooting - I.e - When it's cloudy, not as bright, I bring it up a notch (Scale -2.....-1.....0.....1.....2) and when it's too bright, I bring it down a notch. Doesn't often stay on 0 now. Usually somewhere withing the region of -1 to 1. Aperture is something that I am also tweaking with (if I can remember correctly, it's how much light gets through the lens) to try and capture a brighter image. Shutter speed (I believe is the F settings ) Is something I am trying to play with more often...however, I think I need a tripod to really make the most of that, as I'm like I'm shivering when holding the camera This would be my favorite photo to date that I've taken...Was just a one off random shot before we left This one I just love the colours that were captured from the whole scene. Now these below were captured on the ISO 100 rating. Question is, am I going to far with the touching up in Lightroom? I only ask because I have one problem....I'm colour blind My final question is... Can anyone recommend me some equipment to build up my camera collection? Ideally looking for a tri-pod 1st. ( not looking to spend too much on one, as it's just a hobby I'm testing out for now ) Possibly a flash, as I would really like to do some evening shots. And one for the future....a lens? Am I using the correct type of lens for the photo's i'm trying to achieve or would I be better off getting a new one? Cheers gang.

I'm hoping I get scouted to Photoshoot models
