Desert eagle flame thrower

personally, i think all he should do is adjust the shutter shorter
i dont know what iso he used or f-stop.... but at 2.5sec, i would drop it to say 1 second and increase the fstop a little, no more than 2or3 stops. darken up the blacks, ease in some detail in the middle of the fireball (if there is any to reclaim) i dont think the change from 2.5/1 sec will do anything for exposure, but i do think it will help eliminate any noise there might be. i just feel it should overall be darker with less hotspot. but im viewing on a calibrated lcd...

just wondering.. i hear lots about calibrated LCD's... why not spend that money and get a good tube Monitor? As far as I know they are vastly superior for color and contrast reproduction.
 
desk space, and i liek to leave it on all the time. power consumption and burn in add up. While i do agree, the crt is DEFFINATLY better than any lcd i have seen, ours are good, but still a cheap crt will look better. Its all in the blacks. Though i do find i get more similar output from my printer using a (calibrated) lcd, than a crt.
 
How about (assuming his camera is an slr) put it on a tripod, set it in bulb mode, press the shutter release, holler shoot and when the flame is gone, release the shutter button.
 
I'm deeply disappointed at how much less impressive a mere .45 is by comparison to your flamethrower! :rolleyes:

Still a neat photo, mind you - I particularly like the ejection path and the little "mushroom cloud" at the end of the barrel.

Ahh, who am I kidding? It's no use! MUST... GET.... BIGGER... GUN.... ;)
 
Thanks for all the interest and comments. This was factory Samson Ultra with 300 grain bullet. I reload with 300's and 31.1 grains of H110 powder. I will try that next Thursday and see what happens. The book says I can pack in 33.7 grains! Sooooo maybe I'll try one......or two of that load.
