Just curious - what shutter speed catches just the right amount of motion blur when the subject is traveling 100 mph? Does anyone have a spreadsheet for this? Seems like useful knowledge for motorsports photogs. In baseball photography, I would settle on 1/125 capture a hint of running and throwing motion, while 1/250 would freeze all but the end of the bat and the ball coming off the bat. -- John Mustarde www.photolin.com
