they're nice shots.. but seem a lil soft.. maybe try a lil faster shutter to sharpen them up but not lose the motion of the shot?..

I agree..very soft. Bump it up to around 1/200th and make sure you pan completely...continue following the car after you press the shutter button. that may clear up some more of the photos.

what lens are you using?

Photobucket is messing up and making them look soft.:mad: I need to find a site that keeps them sharp.

i duno man.. no offense but i use photobucket for all my shots and never seen it kill sharpness and clarity that bad..

if anything.. post a pic and then attach the original image.. to see if there is a significant reduction in quality..

Hmmm...wonder why that JDM-fronted Integra is in the line...?

Pics are nice, but jeez half of those cars look like they're about to fall apart.

Are you resizing via photoshop or photobucket.

resize using PS, and it wont degrade quality.

Nice captures bro

switch to IS mode 2 (for panning) - that's why they're looking soft, exposure seems a little dark too.

All I am doing to the images is cropping them in PS, then saving them as the highest #. THen hosting them in photobucket. Photobucket Setting 700x800

Ill see about attaching and see what happens.

Resize completely in PS first....get it to 900X600 or 1050X700...


then load onto Photobucket...the quality shouldnt degrade

Your panning shots are lacking a little sharpness, but that's totally not your fault. The XTi's focusing isn't as fast as say the 40D, 5D, or 1D. If you start taking your photography professionally, upgrade! :)
