photography whilst moving

Post by srhutch » Sun Feb 03, 2008 3:12 pm

Had a go with my Manftotto suction mount this afternoon, only got one shot, think it was two cold for mount and I cant get the shutter to stay open long enough, need to read book I guess

Havent done anything with the photo, this is straight from the camera.

Biggest problem with Z4 is trying to find a flat panel the cup will stick to.

Isn't the mount a bit on the high side? I think I would prefer a dash or bonnet mounting position?

Bonnet shot was going to be next, along with some side mounted shots.

Once I have my filters and have courage that the mount isnt going to fall off I haope to start taking some proper shots.

As I mentioned though trying to get a panel flat enough for the pump cup to attach is the hardest part.
