This is one I would consider submitting had the carnival been in town during the proper timeframe!

| Tim, I had no success with my 707 either. If you find a workaround I would surely like to know about it. |

| Alan, that is a terrific movement photo. I suppose winter shuts down the carnivals where you live. |

Yeah, people tend to get a little edgy when ferris wheels get stuck due to ice jams :) I definitely prefer it to be a bit warmer than 25 for carnivals! |

One 'workaround' I found for the G2, was to run forward while taking the picture. Gives you a good motion zoom effect... can be hard to keep the
camera centered though - but certainly fun to play with and gave some interesting results.
You are held entirely responsible for any damage/ breakages that occur. Don't come crying to me if you try this out, trip and break your camera though! |

That really is a great shot Alan.

What about if you put your tripod on wheels? Just a thought; until I read Gordon's idea, it would never have dawned on me to try it.

Alan,
What settings did you use on this fantastic photo?
Marsha
I don't have the original in front of me so I can check the EXIF data to be sure... but I believe I left the shutter open for about 2 seconds at around f8. It was definitely something like that...

If you have a choice of locales try using one of those metal merry-go-rounds found in children's playgrounds. Shoot the photo as you travel the segment nearest the tangent running towards the subject (boy, is my geometry rusty!). Or take your subject to where there's a real carousel.

Wheelie office chairs ? I liked Alan's roundabout suggestion.
I've also tried taking pictures while on a swing...
