Default Rolling Shots of the Camaro and Firehawk

My first attempt....they turned out OK I think....gotta perfect the camera settings and lighting and have someone else driving next time. Hard to shoot while steering even if you're on an empty road....
















Advice welcome.... Nikon D40X. F9. 1/13th exposure.

i would prolly try going to about a 1/40 exposure, that should cut out a lot of the blur on the car itself, especially with the camaro pics, 1/13 is gonna be hard to handhold perfectly steady

What did you do with the second shot? That looks really weird. As stated before, turn your shutter up a little bit. Yes, it is hard shooting and driving at the same time.

Jealousy, that is the name of the feeling I have in me right now.

Friggin awesome cars! Good job with the shots and it would be better to have somebody else driving, maybe if you got some shots out the pass side and not getting the mirror in the shot?

That second shot is unedited...just happened by mistake, but I thought it turned out really cool. I was pulling forward as she was backing up and I turned the camera to follow/focus on her.....

Thanks....I was going to attempt some long exposure night shots, but got tired and just decided to shoot some rolling shots instead. I'll see if I can't find someone to drive with us....
