The Roy O. Disney in holiday trim leaving the Toontown Fair station in the Magic Kingdom. Nikon D70/18-200VR, 1/200s, f/7.1, ISO 200, EV 0, 18mm focal length
Thanks, Roger! ; Looks like the 18mm was a good focal length to use to get the trailing passenger cars. prettypixie, the path between Toontown and Tomorrowland is a great place to photograph the trains. ; The engineers will put on a 'show' for you if you have a camera in your hand with the steam and whistle going.
I tried a little panning in that same location, when the Walter E Disney was going past - unfortunately it was a horrible rainy overcast day, but I used my UWA lens and panned with a slower shutter for some background blur: 1024pix version: http://www.pbase.com/zackiedawg/image/121689647/original
Nice shot, Justin. ; How slow a shutter speed did you have to use? ; I think the bad day probably helped. ; On a bright sunny day, you probably couldn't get the shutter slow enough without using some ND filters.
Thanks. 1/60 was enough...because of the UWA's sensitivity to angle and movement, even slow tracking with one at the wider settings will give you lots of movement. ; I think you could generate some panning blur at 1/100 with a UWA, even with something as slow as the train. Overcast definitely helped, and I was at F8 too so I was stopped down a bit...could have stopped down more if needed, but F8 was enough with that lens.
