Pretty soon I will be making some purchases to add to my photo equipment. Im thinking that I will be getting a magic arm (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=WishList.jsp&A=details&Q=&sku=5180&is=REG), clamp (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=5166&is=REG), and remote trigger (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=Search&A=details&Q=&sku=180044&is=REG&addedTroughType=search) for my camera. This would allow me to mount my camera to any part of a car. Using this with the camera remotes (http://www.pocketwizard.com/HTML/plus.asp) at work would allow me to take pictures of peoples cars while theyre driving. Get that sweet look of the car being perfectly in focus with all the lights and stuff blurred around the car. Also I should hopefully be getting the Nikon 16mm f/2.8 fisheye lens (http://www.nikonusa.com/template.php?cat=1&grp=5&productNr=1910). This would allow for some wicked sweet wide angle shots and if shot with a 35mm film camera this lense would allow me a 180 degree field of view. So it would make for some even more awesome shots.

Hopefully I should be getting this stuff over the summer.

Once I get all this I would be more than happy to try it out with peoples rides, to provide them with some sick ass photos. I can also do a good amount of work without this stuff so if any one needs a good photographer for something, feel free to hit me up.

I dont gots the stuff yet, but all I need for sure is the magic arm and clamp. the remotes just make it easier, and allow us to **** like while driving. Without it, we'd have to stop then Id have to go up to the camera and manually click the camera, while you drive off, but it gets the same effect.

Dude.....sounds like some cool stuff. I would be afraid to mount the camera outside of the car....if that is what the arm is for.

yea, but the arms are also used to mount cameras on the back of backboards in basketball, and theyre ment to withstand shaq type dunks. So I dont think its that big of deal, and to get some of the long exposure images you dont actually have to drive very fast.
