Millrat - Whilst I can agree that perspective can play tricks on particular things (ie side view and inclined plane) - I can't see how any illusion that could be present to decieve the viewer. Because we can be pretty positive that the camera view is taken at a parallel plane to the horizontal ground at approximately ball height. Whilst the camera may or may not be rotated away and thus not nessesarily be absolutely dead square on to the inclined plane, it will do nothing to decieve on the clubhead going downplane. You can see clearly that the clubhead is getting closer to the ground - no camera deceptions are going on.

I guess we're left to make assumptions in this case about the camera position and angle. I'm not so much disputing it as trying to understand it.

Any comment on the PING MAN question?
