Another new guy - SV650.org

22-04-13, 07:02 PM

Passed my DAS a few weeks ago and I had already been won over by the looks of the naked SV's so had it waiting in the garage for me to pass.

I love it and it will be coming back to France with me (I live in the french alps)

Cheers

What year is it? Looks brand new

How do you get such an amazing picture quality like that?

Haha sorry fella!

Darren - its an 07 mate, 6k on the clock! been garaged all it's life and I know how to clean a bike... and take a picture!

Good camera, good lens (7d with a l lense) and take about 30 pictures close up to get a cheated depth of field and stitch them together... only takes 5minutes but looks good!

DarrenSV650S · 22-04-13, 07:45 PM

30 pictures from the same position and just adjust the focus?

22-04-13, 07:48 PM

same position - tripod ideally but this was hand held... set your aperture to the most open setting (f4) on this lens. then start at the top corner and work along with a decent overlap then move down, do the middle, then bottom... id normally do the surrounding more but it's just my drive!

then use photoshop or something to stitch them - hope that helps...

you couldnt buy a lens that was this shallow at this range and if you could it'd be 10000000000 £

Amazing. I'll have to try it sometime. Don't think I'd be able to stitch it so well. Can just see it slightly on your car door's bump strip

I would have thought all the angles/straights on the bike would look wrong because you are changing the camera's view angle

Better from a tripod yep but you can skew it out... what you can see is actually terrible clone stamp tooling - look at the wall on the right also... I just didnt take enough pictures and I also wasn't that fussed about it so its just a rough job... done right it's untouchable!
