Default New Headlights

OK got the DSLR out and took some better pictures of my car. It was starting to rain so I was quick and didnt get to set up the shots the way I wanted. I can always do that laters.

Massey, the new lights look great! Really makes the car look mean.

I really want a set for my car too. Do you know what brand they are?

They are made by ANZO USA and if you ask me these lights are of higher quality than the factory ones. They have a little more weight to them and feel stronger.

This is the people I got mine from, they were quick and the price is very reasonable.

I know you've mentioned before you have a semi-professional camera, mind me asking what it is? I've been looking for a better quality one. I have such a hard time taking good pictures, especially of my car.

My Camera is a Nikon D50 and the lens I was using is a 18-70Nikkor. The D50 is not in production any more it was replaced by the D40. I do not like the D40, it uses new lenses that don't have the same focal length as a 35mm Camera. The D50 is still a little off, normal 35mm but not as bad as the D40. It is a good camera and to avoid the focal length issues you just have to buy lenses made for the D40 and the other cameras based on the same technology.

I prefer Nikon since any Nikon lens will fit any Nikon camera, and Cameras are all Nikon does so their optics to my eye is much better. Canon EOS series are also good choices. If you go with a DSLR camera get at minimum of 5.1 megapixels or more, and a lens that is around 18-70. I also have a 35-90 with Macro feature. The Macro feature allows you to take ultra close up images of things, like the ends of your pushrods, those would have been crystal clear with a macro lens.

P.S. you can get a D50 on E-bay that is lightly used or reconditioned for a very reasonable price. The D70 is the upgrade to the D50.
