Camera Motion Technique

Canon 5D Markii, Canon 24-105 zoom in and out f22, 1/2sec, ISO200

For this post, I used camera motion to create abstract images. To use motion to create abstract images, first you need to put your aperture as small as possible f22 +, put ISO at 100 or 200, if you have a neutral density filter use it, all that to slow down you shutter speed, you need the time to do the motion whatever it is, I normally use shutter speed in between 1/15 sec to 30 sec. 

This was an interesting wall art in Recoleta Argentina a Buenos Aires Neighborhood, I used this wall to get the image below, Canon 5D Markii, Canon 24-105 at 24mm, f10, 1/40, ISO200

Using the wall in the image above, I did the zoom in and out and a haft a turn left and back to the original position, Canon 5D Markii, Canon 24-105, f22, 1/10 sec. ISO 200

The easiest one is up and down, a slow up and down motion, does a great job with trees. One of my favorite is to use a zoom, zooming in and out during the shot, the last one that I use is a bit more complicated but that much, first zoom in or out, and finish by moving the camera body haft a turn left and back to the original position, or right used the one that feel natural, it takes some practice, sooner or later you’ll have your own favorite camera motion. Read the images caption to know witch motion I used.

 

Took me a while to get the result I was looking for, I wanted to show the scent of the flower going out, to do so I used my Canon 5D Markii, Canon 100mm prime macro lens, f32, 1/2sec ISO 200, moving the camera slowly from the flower to the right after many shots I got it.
