a mate has asked me to take a few shots of his car and along with the usual static shots i'd like to try my hand at some rolling shots, but i've no experience of them so if anyone has any tips i'd love to hear them.
i have a sony a390 with the 18-55mm kit lens, minolta 50mm f1.7 and minolta 70-210mm f4 at my disposal, and i'm thinking that the 70-210 will be the best lens for this because of the range it offers.
continuous af mode because it's a moving subject and use the center af point due to it's increased accuracy?
and use ap mode to give the desired motion blur whilst keeping the car resonably sharp? i'm guessing a bit of trial and error will be used at this stage.
as for getting myself in a position to shoot i'm guessing either out a window or sat in the boot of the leading car will be the best options here, i'm leaning towards the boot option because it'll offer a more stable platform with less buffeting.
