I was expreimenting with the FOV in the cab and set it to 20 it looks quite different from the normal 60.

RE: Cab FOV?

After reading your post, I tried 40 and 45 for both the #1 view and the head out view. Both look better to my eye than the default of 60. I'll probably use 45 as my number of choice.For the #2 view I've been using 25, which looks as if I were shooting through an 85mm lens on a 35mm SLR. For variety, I use 20 on the #3 view, which approximates a 100mm lens in my view.I've been getting some nice scenic shots using 25 or 30 on the #4 spotter cam with full control. Anyone know how to adjust it for a full 360 degree swing?Tim
