I'm not as good at panning as John and Paul, so I use about 1/250 with higher speeds and 1/125 or 1/60 for lower speeds. I still need a lot more practice, which I'm less likely to get, since my brother and I (http://www.NutDriver.org) are preparing to get our competition licenses in February. Then I'll be spending more time behind the wheel and less behind the viewfinder. > Then continues the swing until the car is out of range and your > shutter is closed. Just like golf or baseball or shooting, the follow through is critical. TTYL, DougF KG4LMZ
