the joy of DSLR is that you can control everything individually, so for these shots i set a slow shutter speed (1/80 to 1/150 sec) and then let the camera meter the aperture and iso.

ill post up a series of shots for you later.
DSLR Canon 450D. I tend to rely on the pre-set functions but I do play with the manual settings every now and then, depending on the object being photgraphed.

I now know my issue is the ISO setting is WAY too high on the 'sports' setting and is freezing the images completely even when panning the camera while shooting. I'll give your settings a crack next time I'm at the track.

Thanks Shay.
