I'm planning on going to Waterfest 14 this Sunday in Englishtown, NJ. It's the biggest VW/Audi show in North America and there will be more photo ops than I can imagine. (If you're coming out, let me know and maybe we'll meet up!) I've never been to it before, but I'm expecting big things.
So far my plan is to:
Bring both my 18-55 VR and 55-200 VR; use 18-55 to walk around with and shoot the show cars and anything else that's close. Use 55-200 for any and all races/driving events.
I would definitely like to get some motion shots with the 55-200. The only thing I know about shooting cars in motion is to have a pretty slow shutterspeed (1/125th or so?) and to pan the camera with the car.
Other than that, I'm completely new at shooting cars. I'm a little worried that I'll miss shots that I just can't get until (at least) next year.
Any and all suggestions and/or tips you have would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
