^^^ That's pretty sweet. Cheap, yet effective.

Dont be mean! He loves that thing.. i mean, he even strapped a seatbelt while driving it around. :lol

spoon.ek9 03-23-2011 10:16 AM

heheh we were joking about it while taking the photos. thing is fragile but effective!

The plastic sheet at the bottom would easily come off from hitting anything so I really had to seatbelt it down heheh

That's true, another thing about the DIY soft box is that it leaks light at the top and between the plastic sheet and the box. I used spoon.ek9's jacket to wrap around the box to cover the leak hahah

^Regardless, awesome effect. Looks great!
What did you do to light up interior?
Just shine the flashlight inside?

european 03-23-2011 06:45 PM

I'm getting worse and worse with this whole photography thing. I don't know how you guys do it.

Here's mine...

All the other ones look like crap. Looks neat on the camera's LCD dsiplay but terrible on the computer screen.

RCubed 03-23-2011 07:02 PM

^What are you talking about? That looks great!
Suction cup on quarter glass?

my interior lights were on while the photos were taken. i have a 16 LED and a 20 LED pad in the EF and EK respectively.

european 03-23-2011 07:31 PM

Yea, one suction cup, one super clamp and magic arm.
I also tried a different angle with both suction cups on the rear glass but I wanted to test out if I can drive with it. Turns out I can't. Has to be pushed. The rig was so short too. Oh well.

Thats what a Stickypod is for :)
Its rated for speeds up to 175MPH on the exterior of the car. :)

Let me know if you want to borrow it.

european 03-23-2011 07:44 PM

Looks neat. Weren't you trying to sell that before? Well if we go take some pictures, bring it along and we'll try it out.

I want to customize my boom so it can be bolted from underneath. I want to try a really down low angle.

RCubed 03-23-2011 07:50 PM

^Yeah, decided to keep it. Lol
I wanted to bolt underneath too. it would be so much easier to PP. Lol

european 03-23-2011 07:58 PM

I KNOW! That's what I'm saying. I'm gonna do it. I know it can be done. There are two drain holes in the trunk of my car and I can pop the rubber out. All I have to do is mount the boom to that. Drill some holes in the pole, some bolts, nuts and washer and I'm set!
Buuuut.. it might bend the bottom of the trunk as it looks kind of thin.

I'll do it one day soon and if it works out I'll let you know. Unless one is able to find heavy duty uber magnets. But that might not be safe as well.

haha yeah... i went a little overboard but it's quite useful in pitch dark situations like this. there's actually bigger LED pads available! i think it was up to 30 LED? perhaps more?

Here are a few of my photos from the past few days.

I wish I had a tripod with me for that last shot so I could get rid of the noise. I thought the lighting was pretty good for being a random spot.

Quick one at work yesterday
Maybe I'll try again next week when it's nice out, the tarp wasn't as centered as I hope it'll be :(

Cool!! I have a very similar idea for a photo I want take.

EDIT: Here's my photo

http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5133/...24568eec75.jpg

I had to do an oil change this morning. I also did some rig shots later on but it was more of scouting for cool places to take rig photos. I tried it but didn't turn out right.

Also here is a photo of a Spyker at Miles end Motor Cars.

And here is my first attempt at removing the background from a cars interior photo. I'm just not happy with how much noise is in the photo.
