Learning to do Panning Shot using Point and Shoot
If you want to learn or perfect your panning technique, Here is the best place to practice in any pedestrian crossing like the picture above.

- The most important setting is your shutter speed, however the actual numbers vary depending on your subject. If you are shooting high speed action shots you can get great panning shots with 1/250 sec, however if you are shooting slow rolling then you would need to drop the shutter speed down to around 1/60 sec. Obviously it is very difficult to get a good focused shot with such a slow shutter speed, but this is where the advances in digital photography help us. We can shoot tons and tons of pictures! Start taking pictures in large burst, and with any luck one or two will turn out.
