Moving Objects with the Dlux4

Is it possible to photograph fast cars, airplanes or trains with the Dlux 4? I know a film camera with a motor drive will work but will the Dlux be the same like an M body with the motor drive attatched? I photograph fast objects and the digital cameras I have used always photograph the object 1 second too late. I am aware the Dlux 4 has the continous mode but is it the same with an M body with a motor drive?

I don't think the D-Lux 4 was designed for that type of application. It's more like me - designed for comfort and quality rather than speed.

Then again may be you can try panning along with the subject at slow shutter speed, giving that strake line effect behind a "stationery" fast moving subject.

Why not use the excellent high definition video? And there's bound to be software on the web that'll give yo a stills capture from video if you particularly want stills.

You can actually import the video into Quicktime, copy stills, and paste them into Photoshop for further editing. Works pretty well!
