Home run cam: Use it or Lose it?

I'm just curious how everyone feels about the home run cam that triggers on no-doubters.

It provides a very cinematic view from a grasshopper's eye view of each majestic shot. It's a thing of beauty.

However... part of me likes watching the ball sail and seeing all the fielders and fans react. I also like the idea of not knowing for sure that' it's gone right away.

I've enjoyed it both ways, but I lean towards keeping the home run camera off.

How does everyone else feel about it?

This is how i feel about this particular subject:

I love the "no doubt" camera they have, but it does get tiresome in the hr derby. Its great but i just think they should add different types of angles depending on the type of contact off the batt.. IE:line drives, moonshots etc..

I also think they should use the broadcast home run camera more often where it follows the ball closely into the seats. I would say 1 out of every 8 - 10 i hit will use the broadcast home run cam.

For me it's lose it.

No drama after the ball leaves that bat. I'd much rather see the flight of the ball.

I always take HR cam off. I like to make seem like a broadcast, and when they blast one in real life there is no camera that automatically triggers that shows a side angle.

I keep it off. I could have sworn last year, even with it off, it would still sometimes trigger for those no doubter majestic shots. But most of the time it did not.

Always off. The celebration cam seems unrealistic if I'm playing the game akin to a broadcast.
