FINAL ENTRY

Final Entry
Red line meets wheel spin and opposite lock to create the ultimate Pagani wake up call.

It looked waaay brighter on my TV screen and I got it on my computer and it looks dark and terrible which saddens me because I really like this shot. First time thats ever happened so I may try and redo it.

Edit* Much better.

I had the same problem before. I have a Philips LED TV. I can not remember the model. When I turned off Pixel Plus Contrast, I got a realistic image.
So if your TV has some kind of picture enhancement, turn it off.

Thanks for the tip 👍 I've never had that problem before, But I did just unplug it to clean behind it so maybe it reset something.
 
One thing I do with a night shot if I have one I'm especially happy with is to take 3-4 photos of it with different exposure settings, then I can use the one that looks best on my computer monitor. As a rule I find that photos always look better within GT5 than they do when you export them to your computer and usually they appear a little darker on the computer with more artifacting/banding. :(

I did redo it, and thats exactly what I did. I did 3 or 4 different exposures and it looks muuuuch better.

Thanks again for the suggestions.

Entry changed.
 
This is probably the best and funnest vehicle in the game to experiment different colors with.

I had the same problem this time around, I actually went and redid it, and did 3 or 4 different exposures (brightened it up alot) and it helped immensely

Did try that FBG, this shot though has the exposure set to maximum so..
Itching for a little 2.0 lol
