Slower Shutter pic's

[Mad 20v]

Saw a post on here the other week about real slow shutter pans.
Thought i would give it ago today. Most didnt turn out to good but got a few i was happy with.

They are all hand held and used a D70 with 70-200vr lens.





Not what i was tring for but still liked this one for some reason.

[poah]

kina like the first one. what track?

Nice to see the Mk1 is fixed, i saw the smashed up pics a few months ago and was quite sad.
Good pics, like the top few.

Cheers, it was VW drivers day at Castle Combe.

Fact of life on all digital sensors (whatever strategy is used to deal with it!) - but will be more noticeable with the smaller apertures like here...

(Whatever lens I use and almost whatever I'm shooting, you'll nearly always find my camera set to Aperture Priority on F4 as a starting point )

Good pics from a good day, did u get any of the L reg black ibiza by any chance? Would be greatfull if u did, to check out the handling.Cheers.

great pics, "mad" .... but

the pics are good pans, but the exposure information indicates an exposure of 1/640 of a second ... not normally a slow panning shutter speed.

is this correct ?

Don't think the EXIF info is right - the date is way off and the time stamp on them all is exactly the same.

Well that took some working out, i knew i took them down to 1/30.

But i used an old frame round the pics and it was that data from the old pic not the new ones lol.

Try this one

Big fan of slow shutter speeds, 1/15 - 1/30 creates some nice motion blur, not everyone's cup of tea mind

[gumballer]

nice shots all, maybe we should have a panning/slow shutter topic, iv been practising mine too...

[F-Stop Junkie]

I tried a few at down to 1/10th of a second... Yes, I know they're dusty and horrible.

NOTE: Ok, I processed them all to 1000 pixels wide, and they look a bit rubbish. Click for the full images...





I love when it's all sharp though...

I find it best to set the camera to 'rapid fire' mode increasing my likleyhood of getting one good shot out of panning a car. Sure you all do this, but thought it worth a mention.

I sometimes find that slower speeds give too much exposure. Why is this?

i normally go one shot and manual focus then just pick the spot i will take the pic and pan, on auto focus camera seems to struggles to adjust in time to get a clean shot, although saying that my shots arent that sharp and im still learning so it could just be me!

Im VERY VERY new and amateurish to photography but have been looking to these boards for tips ovr the last while. I am using a Kodak Z650 at the moment it just seems perfect for what I want i.e. to see if Im still interested in a year when I'm no longer on a student budget. Anyway, The Phoenix Park Motor Races were on at the weekend and these would be two pics Im most happy with.

Sorry about the angle....maybe it works, maybe it doesnt. Anyway, my attempt at this..
