Photomode is beyond awesome as long as you play with premium cars. The free range camera is like the best thing you can get. I was worried about the camera not mount on the car when I saw some poor panning shots by others. Once I checked out the camera menu, there were 3 options of panning. The 2nd and 3rd moves along with the car when you focused, so GT5 curve blur is guaranteed but you need a car can corner fast, because 1/60s shutter speed isn't slow enough (check out this page for details http://us.gran-turismo.com/us/products/gt5/photo/)
One thing you won't be happy is no colour adjustment whatsoever (no manual WB and no saturation). You may play with those fancy filter, but no way you can make half saturated photo without photoshop. There is an AE lock available, but not really sure how I can take advantage of it, maybe useful to stitch multiple images for panorama?
Tilt shift filter is totally a gimmick. It just blurs the top and bottom quarter of the photo, and it is not based on focal distance. However f/1.0 is handful to most situations. Vignetting option is gone in photo travel, but it automatically builds up when the shutter opens wide (f/1.0-2.0).
Camera angle now can be fully adjustable. You can shoot the sky/ground straight (hint: mini-planet 👍 ). In photomode (not walk mode), there is no control to move forward/backward, but you can go sideway. You would need to rotate 90 degrees and move sideway in order to move forward/backward... beware of seizure!
Walk mode is simply let you to move the camera position, while photomode let you adjust everything you need for a photo. Good thing is both mode allow positioning the car (photo travel).
Saving photo is quite fast, but it is pain in the butt to export them to XMB, because there is no batch function.
does it give you a file format option besides jpg? i've asked other people here before but no one answered. the camera angle thing does sound like a pain though. another thing is, do the f stops actually affect the exposure this time like a real camera? the gt4 one did not. it felt like it was mostly on aperture mode with a dslr. great set of updates btw. great to see everyone posting here again.

Jpeg only unfortunately. I was hoping to see raw file format. There is 3D format as well if you happen to own a 3DTV. f stops still have nothing to do with exposure, like GT4 it only affect the DOF and vignetting (in some situation). You can change the exposure with EV setting, but it may not work all the time, like +1EV looks exactly the same as +5EV sometimes

Oh yeah, like you said, i was wrong on the format thing.
I saw it on 3Dtv the other day and i was not impressed. Glad i bought a good fullHD.

that makes me sad then. all that time in the world delaying and photomode's still the same. oh well. atleast the graphics are much better now. so, i'm guessing premium cars are the ones you still have to buy online?

Buying premium cars online? What are you talking about? You can buy/win every car you offline, except stealth and chromeline cars, which you need to go thru PSN shop to redeem them.
I think the way PD manipulate the photomode is good for most people who has little knowledge of photography, but at least you can now do fancy panning shots which is a huge improvement over GT4. For some expert photographers, the GT5 photomode simulation is just no-brainer.
Thanks everyone for dropping by and leaving nice comment

the filters feature is not bad. though a little rubbish for the most part.
i still like the gt4 setup, more opportunities for greater angles and
it's so much easier to use. having to stop to change the focal length
is like chimping on your lens in real life lol.
