Change Exposure Mode to multiple shots
Use a high shutter speed. Ex 1/1000 sec Use small aperture for high DOF – f16-f22 Pan camera using tripod or brace yourself Use multiple exposure mode – HI speed
Use shutter speed fast enough to stop main subject but slow enough to blur background. Example: 1/500 sec. Use a medium aperture for moderate DOF f8-f11 Pan camera using tripod or brace yourself Take multiple exposures in HI speed mode
Use slow shutter speed – 1/30 sec and below Use a tripod whenever possible Use single shot mode (or shoot carefully) Set moderate f-stop for sharpness – f8-f11 Experiment with different shutter speeds
