For a static / staged / studio shot, get yourself a circular polariser. When used correctly, it can remove the reflections from non metallic surfaces.
My insurance broker had a heart attack when I told him the value of the gear I put in the back of my DD regularly.
If shooting moving vehicles from a static location (corner of a racetrack or road for eg), pick the slowest point of the road/track you can get to. A car/bike doing 60 km/h can look like 200 km/h if you shoot it correctly. The lower target speed gives you a lot more frames on target and a better chance of nailing a…
Couldn't disagree with you more.
Just to get the nomenclature correct - that's an Akubra that Sir Jackie is wearing, you won't find a "Cowboy Hat" in Australia. It takes at least 10 rabbits to make that hat.
Let Jackie Stewart explain it to you while wearing a cowboy hat. Gotta love the eighties!
Serious, it's quite a common swap for these old girls.

This one should get you really annoyed then - Equiv of about US$ 70k - ok, yes it's a Guarde version (armoured to withstand .50 cal fire), but the replacement armoured windows on these things here (Bogota Colombia) run at about US$ 6k a set ( COP$12,240,000 to be precise) - and need replaced every 2 years.
Bro, I never said I owned a GTi(my current DD is a G55 AMG), Bro, I just asked Bro, if any American made compact car from the time of the GTi, could hold a candle to it? Since the original Bro, said it has taken until now for Europe to produce any hot hatch that can compete with an American Compact car (or at-least…
