Panning is a photography technique for shooting a moving object by means of moving towards the camera in the direction of movement of the object to be photographed so getting photos of moving objects sharp and bakground are blured. This technique can be used to photograph vehicles that are running, a bird in flight. etc. Although it seems trivial, but you need to practice to get good photos of moving objects, you should be able to move the camera in rhythm with the movement of a moving object.

panning (photo the move object)

So how good panning photo that moving objects look sharp?

1. Set your camera to Shutter Priority mode (TV) 
2. Manual focus mode, the focus setting is continuous (AF-C or AF servo) so that the object is always locked with a sweet and tangy though the distance between the camera and the object changed  
3. Set the shutter speed between 1/30 to 1/8 (adjust the object motion, it needs a lot of trial)  
4. Find a moving object that will be used as photo panning (suggestion: find a background color - colors that blur the background more aesthetically appealing)  
5. Do not use a tripod, because the camera must glide to the rhythm of the movement of moving objects 
6. point the camera at the object, camera movement as gently as possible to follow the movement of an object, push the release button halfway to lock the focus  
7. when our hands are already moving sirama with objects, push the release button fully to take the exposure 
8. repeat for other moving objects in order to take our hands are getting trained in moving the camera.
