Re: Favorite hitting views and why?

I switched to wide after watching some twitch streamers last year. The change from fisheye has been great, I'm getting a lot more perfect perfect and getting 5-9 walks a game on legend.

I do miss the immersion of the fisheye camera angle though.

I like strike zone 3. I pick up the pitches pretty well on it. I also like fish eye.

Same here, tried fish eye but I find the pitcher and field just too far away. The stadiums are so beautifully built in this game that it’s a shame to look at it from such a distance. Show 16 just shows enough of the field but keeps the pitcher and walls in sight like you’re actual at bat in the stadium.

Exactly! I feel too far away from the pitcher on fish eye. On Show 16 it just feels right to me and I can read pitches pretty well.

MLB the show 15 view. After struggling last year to find a good view (even tried custom) I switched and never looked back!

Re: Favorite hitting views and why?

Fisheye 1, 2, or Strike Zone 3. I don't really have huge issues hitting from any behind the plate camera anymore except maybe Offset (though PYS made me a little better at that too). But the reason I prefer any of those three is that along with aesthetic value of being able to see a lot of the stadium, they give me a good view of the ball off the bat, through the no-cut transition to the Dynamic in-play camera. Some of the really zoomed in cameras lose line-of- sight to the ball on fly balls, which can cause a problem on judging whether a ball is going to land safely for a hit or be caught.

Custom cam based on The Show 15 setting, zoomed in and lowered which makes it much easier to read low pitches and breaking balls in general for me.

It's similar to the Strike Zone cams, but a bit lower and less zoom. I find that being zoomed out more helps me read both high and low since the zone is smaller and there isn't as much geography for my eyes to cover. So it's a nice balance imo.

Unfortunately can't use custom cams online so I'd probably just go with The Show 15 cam.
