You can get good flake pictures, you just have to take the picture the right way.
What kind of camera do you use?

I'm confident you're thinking of something else, but could you explain? Even in popular magazines, I have never seen a picture that did flake justice. Obviously, you can tell something has flake, but it just doesn't look the same as you standing there, seeing the flake in the sun. Although, I couldn't really explain why; perhaps the hue is different with the naked eye.Originally Posted by Macv
Almost all the pictures I post are taken with my Sony Ericsson W810i 2.0MP Camera Phone.Originally Posted by AngryPopTart
The only pictures I've taken with a different camera are the ones when it was fresh out of the paint and it was a 5.1MP Kodak and it still didn't do it justice.

RIP Touring...probably never going to drive you again...
I've seen people using multiple lighting sources and uv lamps (which I don't know why) to capture the depth of metal flake pictures. I didn't say you could take a perfect picture, a 2d image will never justify a 3d metallic flake appearance; however, you CAN take images that show the flakes in all their glory. i.e. the different hues and sparkles the paint creates.Originally Posted by AngryPopTart
