well im board. so i decided to kind of show of my car. i do not have a cobalt. i use to have a cobalt ls but traded it in for a 2007 saturn ion redline with comp package. it has Limted slip, ladder tach/boost gage. and dark painted rims straight from the factory. so far i;ve done the K&N typhoon intake, ottp stage1 axles, yellow stuff brake pads(give away from discount tire) tranny inserts, 20% tint, recaro swap from a 05 redline. enjoy.




support for Rocky Mountain Ecotec!

cannon eos 7d that's why. the camera thats shooting it cost thousand of dollars then add a lens ontop of everything. at that point it doesn't take much still. you just shoot or set it up on a tri pod and the camera does the work even if its on auto mode and you don't set the iso. camera phone < point and shoot < dslr camera < d serious cannon cameras < hd cam corders lol

however the 7d and 5d and cameras like that still take better pic's than cam corders

I agree that equipment makes the job easier. I've been experimenting with our XSi, but still have a lot to learn when it comes to manual settings:




I would love to have the better camera, but my wife had a hard enough time convincing me to just buy the DSLR...

how much you pay for the xsi? and what lens? you shoot on auto or manual? what iso? the first picture is really nice man. good job. 2nd one needs some photoshop or something to brighten it up. otherwise nice shot on the first picture. really good shot!

I don't remember completely, but I'm pretty sure we paid premium for the XSi cause I couldn't find just the body. Both were using a Sigma Lens, don't know specs off the top of my head for that either:

First shot:
Shutter: 1/166 sec.
Aperture: F/5
Exposure: 1/160 sec.
ISO: 200

The second shot was def too dark, that's why I wend BW w/ it...

Sweet a fellow RME member, Nice ride I really wanted one of those back in 05 when I got my first cobalt. But, I was a kid and did not have enough credit I still love the slightly funky style of the saturn ion redline.
