    I think i will try the 720p-60 first.
    That should give me what i need.
    Thanks again Don

    thanks Don
    In the back of my mind 720p-60 was overcranking……..Don’t want 1/2 speed.
    I should have known better, but have not used that function.
    Might be good for pit stop analysis.

    Very disappointed with my 1080p-30 shots.
    I went to a local freeway, shooting at a 30º angle from the road, cars approaching at around 70 mph.
    1/125 a sec frames were blurry, 45ºshutter angle looked better, and got progressively better at 22º, and 11.5º.
    1/60 of a second was similar.
    The problem is that the cars move so much at 70 mph, what will they look like at 180 mph?
    I will have to try 1080i-60 today.

    I expect that one aspect of reducing the shutter angle decreases the light, similar to stopping down the lens, but with additional effect of sharpening the shot.

    Thanks Don
    I am hoping that most of my footage will be closeup in the pit area. probably handheld.
    Important detail shots will be on a tripod. So far i have only used the camera for mostly still type shots and very little motion. I have only been using the 1080p 30 mode.
    Should i use a smaller shutter angle too? Shutter speed of 1/60th?
