[QUOTE="wayneg, post: 606578, member: 24675"] I've been trying to take some photos for our club web site, and was wondering if anyone has got any advice. I have just bought a cheap Sony DSCP72 3.2 megapixel 3x zoom point and shoot camera, and have been having problems getting any clarity in the photos at all. They're basically fairly slow motion action pictures (it is observed trials ;) ), and I'm having problems getting the timing, focus and the silly freaking shutter to work at exactly the correct moment. The typical thing with trials seems to be that the rider will slow right down for a turn, and then zip over the next obstacle, and by the time the shutter activates I've usually only got half the bike in the picture - which kind of looks a bit silly :laugh:. I also seem to either get the background in focus, and the rider as a blur, or the rider in focus and a mostly green blurry background. Does anyone have any suggestions?? I have looked at various digital photography web sites for advice, but was wondering if anyone with more experience has any kind and thoughtful suggestions. I do understand that the camera is probably not the best for doing this sort of stuff, however I had a pretty low budget when I bought the camera (I also need to buy a new front tyre and fork brace for my bike - which is a higher priority). I do have some samples already posted on the web site, but only the shots where the bike is almost stopped are really any good. The address is [url]http://www.ixion.org.nz[/url] if you want to have a look. Thanks in advance.... [/QUOTE]
