Alright, so I wanted to mess around with the batting cameras in MLB The Show 24. I’ve been using the default one for a while, and I figured it was time for a change. Let’s see what I did and how it worked.
Trying Out Different Cameras
First, I jumped into the settings. You know, pause the game, go to the settings menu, and find the camera options. There are a ton of them, not just for batting, but for pitching and fielding, too. It’s kinda overwhelming at first.

I started scrolling through the batting camera options. They have names like “Offset Zoom,” “Fish Eye,” and a bunch of others. Honestly, the names didn’t really tell me much, so I just decided to try them out one by one.
- Tried “Offset Zoom”: It was okay, gave me a slightly different angle, but nothing crazy.
- Tried“Fish Eye”: This one was kinda weird. It felt like I was looking through a, well, fish eye. Distorted the view a bit too much for my liking.
- Kept going down the list, trying each one for a few pitches.
Finding One I Liked
After some trial and error, I stumbled upon a camera view that I thought would work well. It’s important to find one that is elevated, and zoom in on the action. It isn’t too bad, and I do think it works, so I may stick with it.
My Recommendation
Honestly, the “best” batting camera is totally subjective. It’s whatever feels most comfortable for you. My advice? Just experiment! Spend some time in practice mode or a casual game, switch between the cameras, and see what gives you the best view of the ball and the strike zone. Don’t be afraid to tweak things until it feels just right.
That’s pretty much it! It wasn’t rocket science, just a bit of messing around until I got used to something new.
