Indeed I am, thanks once again for the kind words!Hey, you're RetroGiant! Lovely shot. I browse your gallery on GTP every now and then, very impressive stuff
Something that they should fix (but at this point I think it's highly unlikely) is the fact that, if you watch a replay and then rewind it, tyres tracks aren't deleted.
It keeps forcing me to exit the replay I'm watching and reload it, when I try to take drift shots. : (
Besides that, I have a question, can someone clearly explain what panning mode 2 does? I know that mode 1 keeps the camera fixed to the track, while mode 3 keeps it fixed to the car. What about mode 2?

Actually, your assessment of Mode 1 isn't completely correct
Mode 1 is like standing still by the race track, and panning to follow the subject. So depending on the angle/direction of the car's movement and the point of focus, some parts may be sharper than others.
Mode 3 is like having a camera mounted to the car with a robotic arm where the car never moves relative to the camera. The car will never be blurry.
Mode 2 would be between both. (I guess it would be like taking a picture of a car while riding in another one next to it or something lol)
I like the look of Mode 1. I find it gives realistic results where the rear end of the car might appear blurry sometimes. Using 1/125, 1/250 or 1/60 in some cases with an aperture of f/45 gives a really nice motion blur to the background. Professional photographers strive for the look of Mode 3 and sometimes resort to post-processing to obtain it.

Uhm, I see.
It's just that I usually stick to mode 3, and sometimes mode 1 for certain shots. The only times I tried using mode 2 I couldn't see any difference in comparison with mode 3, and it make sense considering what you wrote.
I guess that probably the differences appear only under certain conditions (or are subtle). Or maybe it could affect other cars that happen to be in the shot, besides the one you bring into focus.

I think the difference is that, in mode 2, the camera moves along with the car but its front and rear can be blurred if the car is spinning, while in mode 3 the car will never be blurry since the camera is completely fixed to the car, so you probably won't notice any difference between modes 2 and 3 when driving straight.

I'd say you're correct, Vally. I personally use Modes 3 and 2 most of the time. I bump down the EV on day tracks and bump it up on night tracks. .250 of exposition time and shallow depth of field or .060 and bigger DoF.
I'm pretty bad at pictures though, lately I just stick to using monochrome because it hides defects

STILL cant believe that PD hasn´t yet patched in so we can enter Photomode from the pausemenu (Like EVERY other game that has Photomode)
Thats one of the reason I dont use Photomode as much as I want to=/

Try Abload.de
It's in german, but you can make a free account and upload HD pics without compression at all.
Thanks, I registered. Is there a way to get a link for a medium-large size preview? Like the ones I posted from imgur or even a 720p?

Some pics of the Bugatti Veyron:
I'd love the Veyron to get a premium do-over. Still one of the biggest car shocks in GT5 for me.

MY GOD!
Hmm, I don't think there are bigger thumbnails, no
In case try flickr, is better than imgur and has several thumbnail sizes, but for 1080p you need a Pro account (20$ a year if I recall correctly)
lol, thanks
Good god, what car is that toyota and how do I get it? How did you 2 tone it?Hmm, I don't think there are bigger thumbnails, no

FT86, and it's probably one of the DLC colors.
Wow, awesome shot
I'm usually not a fan of the monochrome filters but I like how this one turned out
Also I had no idea the shutter speed could go below 1/60s in Photo Travel mode, 1/1 makes for some nice pictures too
