I was in photomode the other day trying to catch a particular shot but failed. In order to get a moving car to appear sharp you need to up the shutter speed. That in turn doesn't allow you to capture movement in a shot. In real life I take my camera to Oulton Park in persuit of one of my hobbies. One of my favorite style of shots is where I pan the camera following the movement of the car. This give you a car that is sharp(ish) and the background and wheels appear blurred, due to the panning motion and relatively slow shutter speed. Here are a few examples:-
As you can see, the subject of the picture is reasonably sharp but the background and wheels are blurred and give a better feeling of motion.
Now, this isn't a complaint or anything. I'm just saying that it would be great if they could implement this panning feature in photomode, rather than just allowing you to freeze the hole image...

I assume you have tried all 3 of the panning options in the advanced settings? Pretty sure I've seen GT5 captures displaying this effect.
Blimey! I'd better have another look... I've totally missed that ![]()

thanks for the link dood... Some good advice in there. Fortunately, with photography being a hobby of mine, I know most of the theory, I just didn't realise panning was available in photomode
You learn something every day ![]()

What a complete noob I am. Just been to Photomode and clicked on the camera options and there it was! Three panning modes!
Works a treat to, better than what I could achieve in real life lol...

May aswell mention before i forget, when using photomode at the moment, if you use a filter (say black & white) take a pic then go back into watching the replay, it'll be in black & white!
I think it's already been mentioned elsewhere though. Just thought i'd give a heads up. ![]()

thanks to the above guy, always wanted to see black&white replays, especially when using old classics, we had this option in GT3 as regular, shame GT5's replay options arent that good :/
