[QUOTE="Daz, post: 706070, member: 37228"] This all comes down to shutter speed. The way you get the shots of the movement but the car (or subject) is by slowing the shutter and panning at the speed of the subject. Now with most things it will take some finessing to get the speed right and with cars and bikes this can be difficult as they all move at different speeds. Here is an example where I got a tiny bit of movement in the wheel at over 200mph but I was still at 1/2000 shutter [ATTACH=CONFIG]316404._xfImport[/ATTACH] Yes Lewis is tack sharp but there is not much going on to show the movement. This shot however was shot at 1/100 and as the car was doing close to 300mph and with the panning I was able to get the blurred background because the speed of which he is moving through the frame [ATTACH=CONFIG]316405._xfImport[/ATTACH] All of this takes time and is not something that comes straight away, the easiest way to do it is to bring the shutter down little by little. Bring it down, nail the shots, then click it again and learn to nail them and go on and on. I dont agree with the faster lenses needed. When you are doing panning shots, you are normally at ISO 100 and needing to have your aperture up around the 6.3 - 11 range. Now better glass will give you a sharper image of course, but its not because they are shooting wide open they are getting the shots. [/QUOTE]
