A buddy of mine took a pic on his iphone while this 911 cruised by. For any photography buffs out there, how did this picture turn out like this. He is convinced it is a real wheel!! I need a set of 4 asap

Wow, I've never seen that effect on any of the moving shots I've taken. It must be something with the way the "shutter" functions on cell phone cameras.

That's Cool.

The reason? The iPhone uses a CMOS sensor, which more or less "wipes" the shutter across the sensor like a scanner rather than the circular aperture of a traditional camera. The iPhone's CMOS scanner seems to be a bit slower than, say, the CMOS sensor on your Canon camera. Therefore, as the camera is recording the image, any changes over that small but significant amount of time are recorded.

Here's a tutorial for some neat pictures.
