Capture Moving Objects through Panning

Posted at 23:10, 03/06/2008 by LoriDeschene

Capturing a moving subject is no easy task—unless you learn to use a technique called panning, which gives you a relatively sharp subject with a blurred background. Your shots will have a real sense of speed, and more importantly, they'll look really, really cool.

Here’s how it works:

Select a slightly slower shutter speed than you normally would. Start with 1/30 second and then play around with slower ones.

Position yourself in a place where your view of the subject will not be obstructed by anyone or anything else. Also, consider the background of your shot.
