BC Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Today I decided to try out my new camera out so I thought I would photograph my small collection of Farmall Cubs. Only three so far but hopefully a forth one by this time next week.

chris.watson Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 great looking models bill, and the real ones look a credit to you. looks like the new camera takes a good picture, love the plain background, it really makes the models stand out.

BC Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 Thanks Chris...I'm still undecided about the new camera but time will tell.I have a 1941 Farmall A as well and a 1/32 SCALEdown model of it as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pony29 Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 very nice collection of models and real Farmall have you already seen the FRANKLIN MINT 1/12 FARMALL A ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 I have had my real Farmall A since 1986 Christian and restoration was completed in 1987. I wasn't in to colelcting models back then and although I had seen the model in advertised in the magazines I did not buy one. I suppose I should really think about sourcing one but I assume they have stopped producing them by now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catkom3 Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Very nice pictures Bill,but I would try another one with the flash on,theres a lot of detail lost in the shadows, Regards Joe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 All those were on i"diot mode" or whatever Sean calls it ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke (DeWitt) Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Neat collection, good luck with the camera. I recently bought one and I almost sent it right back because I could not get it to take a clear picture for the life of me. After about three days I finally figured out what settings work best but it was frustrating for a while and I am usually good with technical stuff like that.

jdc Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Camera seems to be OK so far. I didn't realise you had so many 1:1 models lurking in the back garden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 Well I haven't dropped it yet John ;D ...oh yes 5 of the real deals those three plus the Nuffield and the MG2. It is almost 25 years since I moved here but I have never managed to have the whole fleet out at one time for a photo shoot...some day maybe when I have more free time.
