Best hitting camera angle for realism

[mooch49]

Every year I have problems picking which one. I have 2 criteria. First and foremost, the pitches have to look realistic. The second is which angle is best for pitch recognition. I use zone analog, so it's very important that I get a good read. Right now I'm using wide, offset, or 15. I haven't quite settled on which one. I don't like the default angle that SDS chose this year. It gives the best views, but at the cost of unrealistic movements.

The answer to your question is subjective, but last year I used catcher high, this year I'm using wide, and I honestly think I prefer wide.

As stated above, this is subjective but I believe strike zone is the answer to both of your questions.

I play with zone, guess pitch off so picking up the pitch out of the hand is vital. With strike zone, pitches look realistic almost as if you’re in the batters box. It also allows for the best ability to recognize. Fastballs have backspin and picking up a curveball is so rewarding (or dreadful).

I have been using “Offset 2” for my batting view. Gives you a slight angle on inside view, depending if your batting left or right. I find reading the ball the best. Been my fav view for few yrs now

Fish Eye is the best angle imo.

I recently switched to FishEye 2 and then lowering the camera a bit and zoom it in right up to the chalkline and I can see pitches perfectly now.

Funny, i'm using the exact same cam.
Only via a different route, i went for custom 1 and zoomed in all the way so that the back of the batters box alligns with the edge of my screen.

Same result, different route.
Have been using this one for years and it helps me pick up on pitches and drawing walks.

I switched to wide a couple years back & fell in love, still use it
