Weaksi - that was nice car you built up dood! Sad to hear you sold it though.

Whiteslips - lol you're hooked now! You won't get it out of your system and you will start seeing things as if you were framing it for a shot ("that would make a cool shot" in your head as you drive around...lol

The only thing I adjust is the midtone contrast and the overall brightness in photoshop. The camera does most of the work and I just make small adjustments to keep certain things from looking blown out.

Mashi- I'm totally hooked man. I've loved photography for so long. Now that I actually have good gear and can take a good picture without as much hassle it is super nice.

Thanks guys!

Im glad I went with the AEM and not the FC ,thnx for all yall that gave me advice
If it's 185whp remember it's just a peak number where you do 0.01% of your driving. My friend made 191 on his c5 with stock 4.4.

Nice, those muscle cars are so nice man. I see the hatch is still looking stellar as ever.

Haven't been in here in a while, nothing new with the hatch. Needs a new head unit. I guess the Alpine with a USB would be a little upgrade.

I got a new little Canon Powershot, love it, kills my Kodak.

Last year we had two feet of snow on Christmas. So far this year we haven't even made it in to the 20s and haven't had as little as a flurry.

SlowEgg. No centercaps would look better I think... I'm a no centercap kind of guy though.

You don't realize how much more clear and in depth a picture can be until you get a SLR. Even with the kit lens it blows any picture I've ever taken with my old camera out of the water.

Yup I love the slr! Only draw back is portability and cost! But if it's image quality you are after, it's tough to beat!

Chef - do it!!!

BALLIN! So you own two schnazzy camera's eh? 5dMKII is what I wanted but way out of my budget lol. Was gonna get the 60d but I didn't like the swivel screen. Love the build quality of the 7d, feels rock solid.

^lol! I sold my 7D and also my Canon 10-22mm lens in order to fund the 5D2! I then had a older 5Dc and sold that one off as well but I think I should have kept the 7D.

I really miss that camera and all it's nice new features compared to the 5D2 my 7D survived a downpour while I was in Puerto Vallarta as well and didn't have any issues. I don't trust the 5D2 in those conditions as it feels more flimsy to me.

IQ is superb on the full frame though and my lens line up felt like a new batch again

Great choice on the 7D over the 60D though! Much nicer body IMO.

I agree, Just gotta figure out how to use this sucker. Has a lot more than my old 40d had . Still gotta finish reading the manual
