To all of the people who keep saying that Birds of Prey looks so great, I know I am not an artist but I think the picture on the right is closer to real life than the exaggerated colors of BoP.



Have faith in Oleg. I can tell from the alpha shots that this sim will be stunning when it is complete, so have patience. Thank you Oleg.

Probably somewhere in between, but you are right - the saturation, but especially the contrast is much too high. When you have a blinding noon sun above but can barely see anything inside your cockpit, somethings definitely not right.




@ OM:
You can take pictures of a Black Shark in Russia


Just don't play sharkbait!

Maybe you can share some shots you made after your vacation

Also vigneting is the things that shouldn't be. I understand as photographer that some time vigneting makes the pic looking better and sometime using vigneting myself on the photos, but all the time... "simulating" fringe region of eyes - it shouldn't be done because just of this...

I can't post myself here the link to my photo website to show undewater and other shots. It would look like advertizement.

However I plan to post there with evaluation of EOS 7D (Canon again gave me new camera for the personal test) some shots from our office nearest time.

Yes, I noticed the vignetting myself. I think it's misplaced in a PC-game - the field of view is narrow enough on a monitor and especially in a simulation the player's focus will not always be in the middle of the screen, so the vignetting is wrong all along.

EOS 7D - Wow! Now that's a nice cam. Looking forward to pictures of your office, though you probably won't use much of the 7Ds features for that

I recently started with my little EOS 1000D - got to say that I'd probably go for a EOS 500D if I had to make the choice again, but it's a nice camera for a start - what it can't do, I make up with photoshop

Er, okay, let's get back to topic

Yes lets back.

PS. Use Canon's Digital Photo Professional tools supplied with your camera and RAW format and then I'm sure you will enjoy you camera more time before to move to more expencive, say EOS 5D mark II or EOS 7D. Only these Canon's camers make sense to move to the next level.
However, I'm using Nikons most time.
