4. Slow your shutter speed to catch all the action. This one takes practice, but with some patience (and a willing subject) you can use your manual settings to literally show how fast they’re going down the hill! This is fun for any kind of forward-moving activity—think bike riding in the summer, or running on the sidewalk. Set your aperture really high so that your shutter speed can slow way down, and as your subject is moving, pan your camera as the subject is moving to get that cool motion blur.
(bonus tip: set your shooting mode to be in continuous shooting for even more stop-frame action!)
I’m going to read this and pray that it is too late this year 🙂 but hey Tracy Morrison I bet you still have plenty of time and that brand new lens!
