Rally 9 - Photo book and USB stick are ready :-)

[Matech GT1]

Heads up folks.....hope you all had a great thanksgiving. Just a note to say both the Rally 9 book and a USB stick with over 1,700 photos are now finished and ready to order.
DBK has put both of them in the Forum shop....here's the link.

Please make your orders in the next 7 days ideally as Dave will make a bulk order.

The book is the same huge size as the Matech books, i.e. 13 inches x 11 inches and 100 pages, with a large number of full page spreads.
The USB stick contains over 1,700 images, including a huge number of unseen shots from Spring Mountain. I would say this, but I think they are spectacular.

Costs - Book is $150, USB stick is $100. Order both for $225 and save $25.

Anyway, here are a few screen grabs...then get to the 'shop' and do the deed for the best Christmas book about the best car and the best people.













Thanks again for helping to make my job such a pleasure.
Steve

Well with the hot black car potentially on the cover - I had no choice but to order!
Thanks for putting together.

 

[Matech GT1]

There's no potentially about it. That is the cover , including police chase car .

No way to get individual image files at original resolution?

HD isn't sufficient for large prints.

 

[Matech GT1]

The issue is providing 1,700 images at over 10Mb per image. I decided to give a large selection of the best imagery that will fit onto a 2Gb USB stick.

 

[Xcentric]

That's cool. Although you must mean a 2Gb USB stick. Nevertheless, it would be nice to be able to do large prints of the few images out of 1,700 that are truly personal.

The issue is providing 1,700 images at over 10Mb per image. I decided to give a large selection of the best imagery that will fit onto a 2Gb USB stick.

Suggestion: Put the best images (your choice) at the modest size you suggest, then also put small thumbnails (1024x681) of all the images on the USB key and add a modest handling charge on full sized images that people request. Even full sized images will be too large to email.

Also, for those that want larger images for enlarging and printing camera raw format is best to start with and they are going to be HUGE. I don't know what the native image size on Steven's camera is but my Nikon full frame are 4856x2852, compressed in camera, and are between 20-30MB each.

Just back in town and placed my order. Thanks for all the effort Steve and Dave to put this together.....
(Dave--just call me when they are in and I can stop over to the ICON Garage and pick it up if that saves some time/ effort...)

Steven...thinking ahead.... I am assuming we will see you at Rally 10 Detroit with your big camera bag too

Is there an estimated 'time of availability' for these ? Any chance we will have them for Christmas..?

[dbk]

Andy, I'll order them tomorrow. I have the file from Steven to get them printed in the US and avoid the international shipping, so hopefully yes, by Christmas.
