How to take good rolling shots without using a rig?

I think now looking at these, I wasted my time PM'ing you. LOL! Awesome work dude

LOL! Thanks Justin

Wife and I went and ran some errands today. Brought the camera and had her drive so I could shoot some random peoples cars. Sun was blazing.. Even at F22, ISO 100 I could not get the shutter speed slow enough to get blur without blowing the whole photo out. I know this is not the optimal time of day to shoot but would a few ND filters help with this?

Thanks for the big ones! I have done some work on it and have it up on my desk top already! It is not clear like you say, but I played with it a bit. Looks like a painting now and is fine!

That would work.

Maybe you are trying too much blur?
If you use a nd filter, I would suggest a Graduated ND. Have the gray portion of the filter stop it down by 2

Any recomendations on Good ND filters? I did some searching on them and it seems that this is something where you can spend a lot of money on or a little.

Good enough:

I almost bought the Tiffen GND filter for $45. Not too bad. I'll be getting it later when I finish my rig. It also has pretty good reviews.

Thanks.. I will look into that

One more question.. What is the difference between a graduated and non graduated filter?

Regular is evenly dark all over. A graduated is dark at one end, and gets lighter toward the other. Usualy used dark on top.

Ah ha... so that's how the non-circular filters work...

Which looks like a great option so you have some "adjustment" for how much filtering is actually needed compared to a set screw on type..
