Millennium2002 Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 I'm being picky here, but the ad-wrapping decals on these buses could have been done better... The white outlines make me cringe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think any of them are ad wrapped quite yet so he is probably referring to the livery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transit Fan Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 Saw 8378 on an outbound MP this morning. Only caught a glimpse of the destination sign; it's not purple font but there is a big purple square next to "MAX PURPLE" 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimmyC62 Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 Hmm, I'll have to pay more attention to the sign next time, and slow down the shutter speed. Plenty more chances in the future, I suspect! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty more chances in the future, I suspect! The Luminator Spectrum signs require a very slow shutter speed for the signs to turn out at least somewhat decent. I'm going to provide two photos to show you what the signs look like at different shutter speeds. First is my photo of 8389 (taken in direct sunlight) at 1/800 of a sec. As you can tell, half of the lines on both signs are not visible. Secondly is a photo by "R. Meu" of 8358 (taken at night) at 1/125 of a sec. Now looking at the photo you can definetely see that all lines in both destination signs are visible Although I do not recomend lowering shutter speeds this low (1/125) during day hours, lowering it at least part of the way (closer to 1/500) could possibly give (slightly) better results. I haven't tried it quite yet. Note: Thanks to "R. Meu" for allowing me to use his photo in this particular circumstance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimmyC62 Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 Yeah, mine were at 1/320. Plenty of aperture "left" to close down, though, so the shutter speed can easily be reduced even more in day time...at least from this spot! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
