To give you all a vauge idea, my camera's battery door is broken and I had to hot glue a metal cloths hanger to the side of it in order to keep the batteries in...
 
Hard to believe, but I've gone from using my JVC Everio to now using my Samsung Stratosphere for my car's pictures. One I noticed the significant increase in picture quality in comparison, thats become my camera now.

Well if were reportung on cameras. I used my Nikon D90 for the pixtures usually.

But recently (for "the closet") I used a Sony D200 handycam (the 24.2mp vr.) And I think it takes fairly good pictures.
 
We're talking cameras?
I use my fathers Canon EOS 50D.
Might sound like I'm leeching off my dad, but I'm in charge of the batteries always being filled and the cards always being empty.

Oh and it's my fault if something breaks. :lol:


Camera's very good though.
 
N-n-n-n-not the Treasure Hunts???!
Your other ones are really nice to:tup: It's this one that really caught my eye!:eek: That Dune Daddy is also known as Sand Crab;) Is this a Boulevard or something else?:)

I might as well join in on this camera talk. :P
For quick pictures, I just use my Droid RAZR MAXX. 8MP with a pretty good autofocus and great sepia and red tint filters.
But if I want to take better photos, I use my Sony HDR-XR160 Handycam.

Mczahem, what is that ZAMAC shelby, its zamac so I want it!!!!
It's just a Johnny Lightning from the Playing Mantis era. 👍
Sadly though, that's headed to Andy.
 
Damn. I was hoping it was a Boulevard or something.
How does Goat get promoted to Magic? Shouldn't it be like Wild Buffalo, or at the very least Giraffe?
Because he's got the moves, Harry. You wouldn't understand, your idea of basketball is Toronto Raptors. j/k :P

Thanks man. I was recently considering changing it but I think I'll keep it. :lol:

That is CG picture, right? Sometimes, I first visit the first page, and I love seeing your avatar in of course, the very first post. Good colors!
Do you have any Shelby Daytona Coupes?!
I just bought that car not too long ago, no you can't have it, but I just want to show it off again:




Top row, third from the left.


Notice anything unusual about the last photo?
......... NICE. 👍
 
I was thinking about this today, but do you guys think that Gran Turismo influences some of your purchases? I don't know how much, if at all anymore, you guys play it, but I know I wouldn't have bought the Mazda Furai, Hakosuka/Kenmeri Skylines, etc. if I didn't play the game. That is all. :cheers:

There's another whole bunch influenced by NFS but I'm way too sleepy to list it all
 
Don't even get me started on NFS, I need to buy a PS2 so I can play Hot Pursuit 2 again!
 
Gran Turismo? Not at all. If it did, my collection would look as Jason's, all japanese, but instead of Miatas, the focus would be all- Skylines. And trucks and that stuff woulldn't have a place either.

/sarcasm

Went to the usual flea market yesterday, got a lead to a possible vintage collection coming up for sale in sunday, phone number and all. Let's hope it's not all bogus.
