R1Toasty Posted November 1, 2007 Share #3 Posted November 1, 2007 That could be a problem, especially considering that trains are heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because your camera probably just sucks or its you thats gotta learn how to take better photos. And remember, its the person taking the photo and not the camera.... But yeah, the guy who took those photos really knows how to take pictures. And he probably works for NJT or has real close connections with an NJT worker to get close up shots like that.

error46146 Posted November 2, 2007 Share #10 Posted November 2, 2007 Because that person is probably shooting with either a Canon EOS 1D MarkII/III or a Canon EOS 1Ds MarkII/III. One of my co-workers shoots with my company'$ Canon EOS 1Ds MarkII and his photos look exactly the same. are those the big fancy SLR's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted November 2, 2007 Share #11 Posted November 2, 2007 are those the big fancy SLR's? Yes one of those big fancy expensive DSLR's. If he's using that. If that person is not then that person has excellent digital photography skills with whatever they're using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOB2RTO Posted November 2, 2007 Share #15 Posted November 2, 2007 It was a deadhead so no one was hurt. If it were loaded, there could of been many deadheads and people hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
