another viper stripe member, welcome to the club

I bought Mt Xacti HD1010 from them, and recieved it very quickly. Thanks for all your help and input with this LBM, at the next meet you'll have to teach me some tricks with my new toy

Not tonight, but next week. I 'clicked to buy' the wife a new car this week. So camera next week. Camerabox is the cheapest I've found so far.

Lol, I'm leaning towards it matey . Here's an example of the panaroamic from the Sony, this is with no tripod. Simply sweeping the camera from right to left, or top to bottom holding the shoot button produces this.

Wow, that's a bargain for that price. I love RX7's, and would have snapped this up if I didn't have the supe.

I call shotgun!!

Thanks for the replies everyone, very informative. Ok, so I think I've narrowed it down to one of two bridge cameras. I'm not ready for the DSLR catagory yet, and like the idea of not messing around with different lenses, an all in one package at a good price is what's most appealing. The options are the Sony HX1, and the Nikon P100. Daylight pics are virtually the same between the two cameras, however, in low light situations, the Nikon decimates the Sony. The Sony seems to suffer really really bad grain on ISO's higher than 500. The setting goes all the way up to 3200, at which point the picture looks like one of those magic eye paintings. At this point you're already probably thinking 'well then it's got to be the Nikon then?', but the Sony has a few tricks up it's sleeve, when I say a few, I mean shedloads. The Sony is packed to the hilt with ridiculous features, such as an auto panoramic mode with auto stitching, I've seen some example photos using the feature and they look amazing. There's also an array of high speed capture tricks that the Sony does that the Nikon doesn't. The Sony also has a much longer shutter speed than the Nikon, up to 32 seconds, meaning I can get those car light's trail shots on highways pics. The Nikon only does 8 seconds. The Sony also has built in colour lens effects for making the shots that little bit more pro looking. So, do I go with better low light pictures, or the camera that does loads of tricks to aid me in taking a better picture.

Events organiser eh,? good effort mate Next stop, the moderator yacht

Bit out of my budget really, plus I don't think I could do the SLR justice really. I also gather SLR's have a limit to how many photos they can take before they wear out. (no doubt this is a ridiculous amount of time).

I'm after a new camera to take better quality photos at meets etc. I'm done with normal digital cameras having seen the stuff that people on here post up having used DSLR's, the quality of the pictures is outstanding in some of them. I appreciate that a great photo is a lot down to how good the photographer is, and not so much the camera, people like LBM clearly know what they're doing, and I know I'll not be able to just walk around snapping everything expecting it to turn out amazing, but I want a decent camera to start learning with. Having seen this thread here, http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?225930-New-camera...chuffed&highlight=camera I was blown away by Ewens fly picture taken with the coolpix P100 I've started looking at what I believe is classed as a super zoom camera. Not quite an SLR, but I'm guessing good for budding photographers.? They have a lot of the functionality of an SLR with the various settings and such. So, I've done some reading, and seen some sample pictures of what these cameras are capable of, and I'm convinced that this style camera is what I'm after. Question is, which one do you suggest. Here are some options. http://www.photographyblog.com/reviews/nikon_coolpix_p100_review/ http://www.photographyblog.com/reviews/sony_cybershot_dsc_hx1_review/ http://www.photographyblog.com/reviews/panasonic_lumix_dmc_fz38_review/conclusion/ http://www.photographyblog.com/reviews/fujifilm_finepix_hs10_review/conclusion/

Blimey, that's actually really good Which one are you then?

NFS shift and the other need for speed itterations are from different dev houses, so they're very different games, but both carry the NFS title.

Sometimes I prefer the arcadey feel to the hardcore simulations. You get more fanfare and pantomime in the arcadey style racers more often than not, GRID and NFS shift are two good examples.

I really enjoyed the first game, the in car view was the most visceral in car view I've ever played, this new one has a smart head movement in it where the driver looks forward around each corner, check the following vid....... http://www.gametrailers.com/video/track-disaster-shift-2/709252

Gonna look lovely no doubt, but the cam cover would have to have been black with yellow viper stripes In fact, Mr Mitchell is pretty good at viper striping cam covers, he could stripe the carbon one just to make it that little bit more 'one off'

Hello Notice how John hasn't asked for a Hovis shot after being told off

Oh, and Tracy is going to love the Vicky comment , she seemed genuinly offended when I called her that.

Top effort Scott, great video I see you've found the awesome Two Steps From Hell for the orchestral stuff (but I've already used that tune just so you know ). Great choice of track for the main vid though, that one was in my future projects folder, but alas, it's now removed. I love your rippoff big company intros, they crack me up I also noticed you started editting the music too, takes a lot of tweaking sometimes to get the timing right, but you've pulled it off. Your vids are getting more and more professional everytime, I'm going to throw the towel in at the rate your going. I see you're also using dual camera setups now, bit too rich for me that, but it shows in the final awesomeness of the video.

Lovely car. Lowered, with a front lip and nice wheels....job done. GLWS matey

The 55" is reduced to £400 now.

Price reduced again, now £400............yes, £400, bonkers I know.

Blimey, this is a longest delayed vid ever. I'm expecting extreme awesomeness Scott, no pressure.

I still have the 55" Hitachi for £500 if you want it. It's in the for sale section.

Welcome matey. Looks like a tidy supe Where abouts in London will you be staying,? if you're anywhere near kent, there's a good monthly meet you should come along to.
