  3. I just got the new digital xti yesterday...been taking lots of pictures of my car in the outdoors and one thin is bothering me...i know how to change all the settings on the manual mode like shutter speed, f stops, and iso and all that good stuff...now when i take the picture on my camera and it seems perfect...i put it on my computer and it looks a tad bit too dark..dark enough to ruin the picture...what am i doing wrong or what should i do to fix this?
  4. i cant own a camcorder if i skydive and dont have over 200 jumps? i bought it for my own personal use...i bought a helmet....with a flat side...so i didnt have to buy another one with a flat side once i started jumping a camera i waited till 160 though

  8. :) im currently working on what you wrote in your last paragraph...i just did 30 jumps in 3 days at perriss....the dropzone is 1500 ASL..my dropzone is at sea level...i was coming in much faster at perris then i will be at my home dropzone...and every single landing was a no wind landing Out of the 30 no wind landings at 1500 ASL...i landed each and every single landing on my feet...ozzy13 can vouch for me on that one....i was setting up my final at about 500 feet or so...turning with rears if i had to change course a little..and half brake turns with toggles. Im being very careful with this canopy guys...but im not scared of it and not nervous on it...only thing im worried ABOUT is getting cut off really low....(but who isnt)..btw im keeping my hands near the rear risers just incase the whole time!! im going to be taking a canopy course by scott miller as soon as he is in the east coast area by NY giving a course somewhere around here!
