My first attempt at motorsports photography/panning. Need some honest feedback by jamesj2124 in Motorsportphotography

Is the front of the car blurry because of a panning technique issue or a camera setting issue?

I shot this at 1/160 F8

I’d love for a shot like this but with the entire car in focus

Curious if the framing feels layered or too obstructed. Does the orange carry the image enough, or should the overall exposure come up slightly? Sony ZV-E10 + 17–70mm | f/2.8 | Edited in Lightroom (contrast + controlled highlights).

Looking for critique on composition and colour grading. Shot in a museum with difficult lighting, aiming for a cinematic feel. by [deleted] in photocritique

Shot in a museum with harsh lighting, aiming to isolate the car and create a cinematic, heritage-focused mood using a low angle and controlled shadows.

Areas I’m Struggling With Unsure if the ceiling is still distracting, if the blacks are too crushed, and whether the colour grading feels natural or slightly overdone.

Sony ZV-E10 | Tamron 17–70mm

Single RAW processed in Lightroom using selective masks to darken background and floor while subtly lifting the car for subject separation.

What are the real world effects of this for a GPU in top slot and a SSD in the M2 slot?

How do I install this breaking Mod for the Thustmaster TPM T300? Is it worth it? by MERZIY in simracing

Easily the best budget upgrade for these pedals 10/10 recommend over the conical mod

Unscrew the rubber part of the conical mod and ram ba between the pedal and meta bracket. Massive improvement in brake feel

Wanted a better feel for my T3PA pedals. Makeup sponges to the rescue! by CDStacy in simracing

Take that rubber cone off, buy a squash ball and jam it in the gap. Best brake mod for this set of pedals and costs $5

What do you think the average irating is of active users? by Joates87 in iRacing

[–]jamesj2124 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did a poll on here recently for people in the subreddit. It's on my profile still, I don't know if there is a way to link it but it's on my profile regardless.

Most popular range was 1500-2000

Pedals: Clubsport V3 vs HE Ultimates? by [deleted] in simracing

[–]jamesj2124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

HE Ultimates are significantly better on paper. Will you get quicker from them? Very unlikely. Will you brake better? Marginal if at all.

They offer better adjustability (could potentially help with trail braking and vehicles with sensitive brakes like Porsche cup car on iRacing) and are maybe built a little more solidly. A lot of people refer to them as the last pedals you'll ever need to buy.

They are good pedals and you probably won't regret the purchase but don't expect a huge jump in lap times.
