Have you ever tried panning photography? 📸
Here are my 5 tips for better panning:
1. Slow down your shutter
Start around 1/15–1/30s and adjust to your subject. If your camera has IBIS, try turning it off, stabilization can sometimes fight against your intentional movement.
2. Pre-focus
Use manual focus and focus on the area where your subject will pass.
3. Follow the movement
Move your camera at the same speed as your subject.
4. Use burst mode
Shoot a short burst to increase your chances of getting the perfect frame.
5. Keep moving
Don’t stop when you press the shutter. Follow the subject before, during and after the exposure.
The settings help.
