We had a Maxima meet, in which Lance (S00NR1) organized. Here are some pictures of the Maximas that were in attendance. I thought the turnout was great. Enjoy the pictures.

 

Props to Marco (Polo) for the free foglights! They are awesome!

 

 

The fast outcast

 

 

 

Why did you hold the meet at night? That's a new one on me.

 

Great pics Van, as usual. Thanks for doin the work.

 

We held the meet at night due to the, ehem, "cruising" we do after dinner and pictures along 39th in Oklahoma City.

 

Nice shots. Looks like fun.

 

"Cruising" sounds like going to the bar to me, lol! Nothing wrong with that.

 

Haha nah, by cruising I mean going to 39th where hundreds of ricers like to show off and making them look stupid by running them.

 

Nice pics! Hope you guys had fun.

 

The meet was great,, props on the pics Van.

 

We held the meet at night because we always hold the meets at night. We have jobs.

 

That's the one I couldn't go to. Otherwise I would be there guys.

 

Great looking shots. Warren

My car ran really hard last night, kinda surprised me to see it hanging around the other Max's. Can't wait to do it again

The pictures of have down due to the canceling of my cable internet account. The pictures are back up on my friend's account.

 

Nice pics

 

just curious, what kinda camera did you use to take the pictures, and did you use a tripod? In that lighting, my camera's pictures woulda all been shot to blur-hell...

 

The camera is a Canon 300D/Rebel, with a Canon 10D firmware hack (custom settings of 10D enabled) mated to a Canon EF 28-105 F/3.5-4.5 II USM lens and Canon EW-63II lens hood and Hoya UV filter (which I think causes glare) with a tripod.

If you want good pictures at night, you must have a DSLR for clarity. Point-and-shoot cameras suck at nighttime shots, due to their small CMOS sensor, so the camera basically has to turn up the "gain" and, in turn, causes distortion (graininess). It works kind of like an audio amplifier. DSLR's sensors are about 4 times bigger, which enables a longer shutter speed, and that will give you better shots.

 

Will you be attending the Trophy/Maxus meet tomorrow?

 

I was planning to go with the OKC .org group, but there has been a change of plans due to my family. I might just leave tomorrow morning and come back tomorrow evening. The pictures will probably be worth the drive.

 

Cool, it'll be good to have you out there. Very nice camera, btw.
