Hyundai Sonata

Hyundai Sonata is not a new name for people in Indian car market. The car has been a huge success. In India Sonata comes in three variants -- 2.4MT and 2.4AT in petrol and 2.0L CRDi MT in diesel. Under the hood, the Sonata sports a high-power 2.4 litre, four-cylinder petrol engine, which forks out a powerful 163 bhp @ 5,800 rpm and a maximum torque of 23.6 kgm @ 4,250 rpm. Mated to a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed H-matic automatic, the new aluminium engine features Variable Timing Valve Train (VTVT). Hyundai boasts that the Embera delivers plenty of low-end torque, quick response, excellent pick-up and great performance

Within a short period of time, Hyundai Sonata has become a popular brand in India. Sonata has been recognised as the favourite car of upper and upper middle class in India. Hyundai Motor India Limited launched the fifth-generation Sonata Embera, setting new standards in technological excellence with a 2.4-litre petrol engine and a 2-litre diesel engine, improved styling, refined interiors and advanced safety features. The new car will take on competitors in the premium luxury D-Segment on Indian roads.

Dynamic suspension and an excellent rear-seat ride quality, one of Sonata's key appealing features, continue to dominate the Sonata's redesign. Hyundai Motor says that the Embera offers much higher fuel efficiency because of its light weight and aluminium engine block. With its contemporary international styling, refined driving dynamics and 170-mm ground clearance, it is time to take a second good look at the Sonata.

The four-speed H-matic transmission, when set on tiptronic mode, allows some manual input for maximum driving pleasure. Hyundai mentions that the light-weight aluminium engine block improves fuel efficiency levels, which even out at 6-7/9-10 kmpl (city/highway). The all-new 2L CRDi engine pumps out 140 bhp at 4,000 rpm and 33 kgm of torque between 2,000 to 2,680 rpm. The diesel variant gets a 6-speed manual transmission as standard.

The hood, featuring a prominent V-shaped ridge, meets the chrome-lipped signature grille. Wrap-around tail lamps (resembling those of the Honda Accord's) and sporty twin exhaust notes bring up the rear, balancing the front visage and emphasising the car's new international styling. Flared wheel arches feature 16-inch alloy wheels, and tubeless tyres give the Embera a sturdy, well-heeled profile. The new version is also a bit wider and taller than the Honda Accord.

The Sonata's profile is distinguished, classy and contemporary, with styling taking on soft, sensuous lines that hint at the car's luxury and refinement. Wrap-around clear-lens headlamps enclose jeweled projector lights with silver bezels; the bumper incorporates trapezoidal fog lamps and chrome-embellished strips.

help with aperture/bokeh?

okay so i'm trying to do this:

http://www.diyphotography.net/diy_create_your_own_bokeh

but i'm doing something wrong because my pictures end up completely black with just a bit of the photo in the middle.
i know this is because of the shape of the lens hood made, but i think i probably have the wrong aperture. i have a nikon d40 + 18-55mm
and am completely confused haha
there isn't enough instruction, help please? it's probably really simple

This works best on fast lenses, but you should get some effect with your 18-55. The mask should be as close as possible to the front element of your lens. Also, you should shoot wide open - use aperture priority and set the maximum aperture.The more you stop down, the more vignetting you'll get.
