[QUOTE="fotojack, post: 81881, member: 16"] As someone who has taken hundreds of motorcycle shots at racetracks, I see absolutely nothing wrong with the shots you've shown here. Even with the 18-105 lens, these are good shots. I'm wondering about the shutter speed, though. I typically used 1/500th to really freeze the action, but.....nothing wrong with 1/320th either. As for the aperture setting.....f/25? seems a little excessive, but maybe you were going for motion blur and not background blur. For better DOF, I would use f/8 or even f/4. But hey...that's all personal preferences, right? :) Nice job on the shots. Keep it up. :) [/QUOTE]
