    What camera are you having the most success with?

    I've watched the top DD players stream and most of them use the zoomed in aka Strike zone camera, but I just can't. I swing at everything. I've been liking Retro but I'm not sure if I'll stick with it.

    I seem to be playing better with the improved Wide camera so far with 16.

        I decided to give Fisheye a chance. I am doing okay with it but probably couel use a little more practice.

          fisheye without a doubt. much easier to read breaking pitches and foul off close pitches to stay alive.

            I've been using fisheye. I've seen others say they have difficulty with breaking pitches when using this view, but I haven't had any problems and actually got 12 hits in my first game. It's also nice to have a wide view of the detailed stadiums.

              I messed around and tried out a bunch of them for a few hours. I settled in on WIDE. It's relatively easy to read off-speed pitches and it also looks good. OFFSET is another one I liked.

                I've only tried fisheye and so far so good.

                  I gave fish eye a try for a while but I could not pickup a slider to save my life. Decided to switch to wide last night and so far I'm faring much better.

                    Do they allow custom cameras to be used online this year?

                    I know they've been prohibited online in MLB 14 and MLB 15.

                      No, they don't allow them to be used.

                        This is wrong, you can definately change the view in DD online, I tend to use "pitcher" for pitching and The Show 15 camera for hitting

                          I think you misread the question. He asked if "custom cameras" could be used, meaning Custom Camera #1-4 in which you can customize a view to your liking.

                            I never used the camera wide last year but gave it a chance on this game and love it, I've used it for a while now and have been hitting pretty good.

                              I've been using the zoomed camera for the most part in every mode. The only downside to that camera is that it makes it hard to read low pitches but out of all the cameras this is the one that I am able to recognize speed better and time everything up.

                              I've had big time timing issues the past year or two and I feel like a lot of it is because the game forces you to let the ball get really, really, really, really deep. As a former college player myself, I understand the concept of letting the ball travel but it almost feels like in order to get good timing you have to be hitting it out of the catchers mitt.

                              When I've used other cameras like 15, 16, or fish eye I've had real trouble actually squaring balls up because the timing seems so off. It's almost as if every pitch, regardless of location, has to be approached like you're sitting back on a curveball, ready to slap it to the opposite field. It's extremely frustrating in DD because I end up pitching extremely well (had 18 K's with Marco Gonzales in my first game) but can't hit to save my life because everything is a swinging bunt or a foul tip.

                              I'm hoping that I can just adjust and get out of my former player mindset and approach but after two years of the same thing I find it hard to believe that will change. It was beaten into me for years after all. So for now, zoomed has been the best angle because it actually plays to my mindset and mentality.
