Watching RAW last night, I noticed they do this annoying zoom in and out, and shakey camera stuff during brawls. When The Shield was attacking Ryback they did it, and also during the Punk/Rock (lol) fight.
I understand they're trying to create a feeling of chaos and suddenness, but it's really off putting and makes it hard to focus on what is at hand.
Anyone else annoyed by this, or any other aspect of current presentation?

I don't think I've ever complained about getting motion sick watching something on TV before, but man that got to me. I hate it, they're just shaking the camera and zooming in and out. Like something an amateur movie maker would do for a Youtube video.

yes, the camera work in the WWE is horrendous. in addition to "shaky cam" during brawls, when a guy like Orton or Sheamus are stomping on their opponent, the cameraman follows their legs up & down....its ridiculous

I think they did it during Ziggler's promo too, which I thought was weird. They were doing like an erratic zoom.

I found it slightly bothersome, yea. The chaos and panic is already there, we don't need Star Trek shakey cameras.
I also could do without the 'lets show you the crowd who are watching what you're watching.'
Any time there's something on the Tron, we wide pan the audience. Who gives a sh*t?

I think they do it to hide the fact there is no actual hitting. In the HD everything is more clear so they have to hide it

I've been annoyed by it lately as well. They need to tone it down. ECW used to do it right with quick zooms, but the shakiness has to go...

It's always been very irritating when your trying to focus on the action while the camera starts flying around like a fly.

I think it was meant to be a first hand action. Like while watching, you are there right next to the other refs

Shaky camera is a commonly used tactic in movies and TV shows during fight scenes and chase scenes....so, yeah, it's annoying and a pain to the eyes, but WWE isn't doing anything that isn't already a very common practice in media anyway. And really, it would be very unrealistic if the cameraman wasn't a little unsteady in scenes that WWE is trying to act like are unplanned or chaotic. When The Shield is doing an "unplanned" ( ) beating of somebody, is the camera man supposed to stand there calm and steady like it's no big deal? No, he should be shaky and moving in a way as if he is afraid for his safety too...obviously still capturing the action for the viewers, as he is in no REAL danger.
