are you dumb?

[DD.]

are you dumb?

[.:Chris:.]

Your pics are all very sharp.

The attached two are my favorite. The one of your gf is great, have you tried using a flash to fill the shadows? Also, on the one with the sign is a bit distorted (10-20 I'm guessing?). Have you tried PTLens to correct any distortion?

Are you using the 55-200 VR or non-VR?

Overall these are great pics. I'm more impressed that your girlfriend let you take so many pics of her, my girlfriend used to be ok with it but lately I fire off a couple and she's done.

hit me up if you want me to take some pics for ya like this on the beach or wherever!

Can I wear my banana hammock... or no?

[Michael.]

1) Someone else said she kinda looks like mandy moore and she HATES mandy lol

2) 94turbogsr: yes it was the 10-20 on the sign, i have not tried to fix the distortion, i kinda have a thing for them being like that lol. and i have not tried using flash to fill. i dont like how the on camera one turns out, i'll just wait till i get a speed light. the 55-200 is non-VR unfortunatley, i got it from a friend and only paid like 100 for it. i WISH i could afford a VR, that will be my next purchase, something a lot farther than a 200mm.

we worked out a deal this time cause i havnt been wanting to go to the beach and like "lay out" and shit like that like to do, so she said if she drove and would let me take pics if i would go with her and so i said yes lol sometimes shes picky and if she thinks her hair doesnt look right or anything i may only be able to get about 10 pics or so lol

and your girl can wear her's but i wont take pics of you in the banana hammock

[.:Chris:.]

Ah, if you like the distortion then try pointing shooting from a lower or higher vantage point. If you're not level with the 10-20 it distorts big time!

As for the 55-200, it's still a pretty good lens considering the price. I'm using a 70-210mm F4-5.6 push/pull and it's probably 20 years old. I've thought about stepping up to the 70-300VR, I think I'd do that rather than bother with the 55-200VR.

As for the fill flash, the on-board flash sucks. I've got an SB600 which works nicely, but it's too bulky for me to use it often. I want an SU-800 so I can fire the thing without it being ontop of my camera...

Anyway, great pics.

[kaluwa]

Baller pics bro. I want a camera like yours BADLY!

And +1 on her looking like Mandy Moore in the 1st pic of her.

Repped

[prymerintegra]

bump for good photography...

[.:Chris:.]

P.S. you are dumb enough to post ur girls pic on the internet, now it's time for me to have fun with it, and totally compromise her in photos all over the internet. Jackass.

Come on now, that's just an odd thing to do. How upset could you possibly be that someone on TR has made fun of you?

[Michael.]

Well I figured a kid in a civic couldn't afford a z06, so if you just took a pic of a strangers z06, why would u clear out the plate. Or it could be a treated plate that doesn't get picked up on photos to avoid toll cameras. Either way you're an asshole. Have a nice day.

wow someones a little cry baby. if you actually do something of the sort, you are pretty fucking dumb. all i can really say is wow.

who the fuck does that? i blanked out the plate just because its courtesy, and common sense asshole.
