    Favorite camera for hitting.

    Having a hard time judging low balls and off speed pitches. What are your favorite camera views?

    I've just been using the default catcher cam. 'Catcher 2' is slightly lower than the default catcher cam so that might help you.

        I am using catcher 3, only becausae I got tired of recreating my custom cam every time I turned the game on. My prefered cam, is based off catcher 3, I zoom in until only the top of the plate is visable, and I lower the cam until the top of the pitcher shoulders are just above the top of the strike zone (relative its more feel) on Nick Markakis' strike zone. It allows me to see the the lower part of the strike zone better.

          Been using catcher offset as of late. Needed some help in pulling the ball at times and this to me helps a little. This is the best I can do for now until custom cam can be saved.

              Nope, but I plan on asking at the Dev Q&A today.

                  I am pretty sure they are aware of custom cameras not saving and I can almost guarantee they will fix it. It's a pretty big issue and I can't see them not addressing it.

                    They said it would be addressed with the next title update. So that is good news.

                      I enjoy Classic Catcher 2. Allows a field level view which allows be to have a better projection of the pitch.

                        I'm using Catcher 4 this year and it's been working out pretty well.

                          I've used Catcher Offset exclusively for the last 2 years, but this year I'm having trouble picking up breaking balls with it. Not sure if it's been tweaked or what?

                          Been using Catcher 3 for the last couple of days, and while I do prefer an offset camera for realism, I'm seeing the ball better than I was.

                            I think after another few days of testing I'm going to stick with the Wide camera option.

                            It's the most realistic in terms of height, and how you would actually view the ball as a batter without actually customizing it yourself. And because of the height and how you view the ball, there is a lot more time to react, making the fastball up and in much more hittable.(especially if you are using Zone + Analog.)

                            Anything around 93mph was giving me a lot of trouble inside, I pretty much had to guess it was coming and sit on it(and I don't use Guess Pitch), and even then it was a task to do anything other than inside out it to the opposite field. As soon as I switched to Wide, I homered twice on inside pitches, one of them being a 97mph fastball I pulled barely inside the foul pole.

                            If anyone is having trouble with the fastball, especially on the inner half, and does not want to mess with pitch speed sliders, I urge you to try Wide.

                              I like E. Catcher Zoom the most. Zoom offset isn't bad either.
