On the Nikon, you have another option apart from the shutter priority mode - Program mode, you can rotate the command dial to all the various shutter speed and aperture combinations that give the same exposure.
Example, if F8 and 1/250 make it correctly exposed, then rotating the dial one way will take you to F5.6 and 1/500 or rotate it in the other direction for F11 and 1/125. Basically it seems to do away with the need for the aperture priority or shutter priority mode. Or am I missing something :) |

Havn't visited any car-events recently, but here are some of mine:

Programe Mode is the same as Auto Mode expect you can change a few settings like ISO, White Balance. Av - Aperture Value You choose the aperture and the camera auto selects the shutter speed to properly expose the photo. Tv - Timing Value (S mode on Nikons) You choose the shutter speed and the camera auto selects the aperture to properly expose the photo. |
Well, i thought its time i provide some more recent, and improved panning shots i've done :) (from earlier today)
First, we have a Monte Carlo here taken @F9.0/ 1/100th of a second ISO 200 http://Serv1.imagehigh.com/files/ih0...te_carlo_1.jpg This one is nearly the same, but being a white car, i changed it to F10 1/100th of a second with ISO 200. http://207.210.234.147/imgs/ih000001...Corvette_1.jpg If i can do this good w/out IS... i seriously wonder how awsome IS will improve my "abilities" :LoL: ;) |
200mm; F5.6; 1/320 sec shot at 1:54pm
http://207.210.234.147/imgs//ih00000...7__DSC2395.JPG 70mm; F10; 1/400 sec shot at 12:38pm http://Serv1.imagehigh.com/files//ih...0__DSC2259.JPG 200mm; F3.5; 1/800 sec shot at 2:00 pm --> I had to shoot faster to capture the sparks http://Serv1.imagehigh.com/files//ih...0__DSC2424.JPG 85mm; F2.8; 1/250 sec shot at 8:23 pm - this was in a darker section of the circuit - good for picking up the glowing brakes http://207.210.234.147/imgs//ih00000...2__DSC3491.JPG 200mm; F2.8; 1/250 sec shot at 8:27 pm http://207.210.234.147/imgs//ih00000...0__DSC3520.JPG 200mm; F2.8; 1/250 sec shot at 8:24 pm http://Serv1.imagehigh.com/files//ih...2__DSC3494.JPG |
if only the last few had a bit more exposure... and well, the first few had more exposure (higher aperature too).
granted, its very hard to follow the sheer speeds of race cars! the first two shots are incredibly sharp! thanks for sharing :) |

I used 1/30sec for that shot, and did pretty much zero editing in PS, except for re-sizing. Definitely tough to get a clear shot with a plane going 80mph, and free-hand, but looks cool when it works... Sameerrao, the glowing brakes are awesome, a really great catch! The Audi scraping is cool too :shock: is that supposed to happen?! Are those pics from another topic...? I'd like to see the rest of those, and btw, it looks like you had a good position to shoot from, where were you situated? |
Good shots guys, but remember, much easier to have a sharp pic when resized to 600 or 800 :P bring on the high-res so we can proprely judge ;)

I moved around the track to take pictures from different locations. As long as you had a grandstand ticket they let you cruise thru the stands. Besides it wasnt that crowded anyway. The Audi was scraping on the many bumps on the circuit. I asked Allan McNish, who was driving the car, about it - he jokingly remarked that it was just a way to make the car loose weight. :lol: The Audi was like a battle tank - damn that car is good. Along with the Porsche 956/962 it is perhaps the greatest prototype ever from a wins standpoint. For all the good glowing pics that I got (about 6) I threw away about 50 pictures - it was tough shooting because the cars were really fast into the corner and weren't braking for more than 2 seconds or so. Also, some drivers (read better) like Seb. Bourdais did not make the brakes glow as much but were still faster on a lap time. They must be metering their braking very precisely. 8) Quote:

The fence was about 30 feet from me and the car about 10 feet beyond - basically the fence and car are pretty close to each other and both are relatively the same distance away from me. Anyone knows how I can make the fence less obvious or is it a poor location to shoot from. |
