I'm sure you've had enough practice at the track to make it easier for you to get the effect in-camera rather than in post-processing. I've been able to get good pan shots with focal lengths easily as short as the one Paul used for the static shot (and even with my old Canon G1 point-and-shoot), so there aren't any technological reasons why this couldn't have been the case here. But the other issues Paul mentions rule - if both the photographer and the subject aren't in the right places at the right time you don't get the shot. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
