So, am I the only guy who got a black E60 M5 *specifically* to hide the lines of the car?

(my C4S was basalt black, and I would have preferred plain black)

In addition to keeping the car clean, the only pro I have is getting those kinds of pics. I can never get the reflection, or exposure right.

So what kind of flash is this? What does studio (flash) lighting specifically refer to?

Thanks for any help.

Since my first black car I have only had black. You know what they say. "Once you go black you never go back!"

It does look great but in half the photos of the front bumper, while being a few feet away, still does not show the lines. I love black in the day light but everything does blend in way more than other colors. I had a black car and it just cannot do a nice bumper/body kit justice like other colors.
