1 Move the camera smoothly while tracking a subject in motion.
2 Press the shutter button while moving the camera.
3 Keep moving the camera continuously.
It is difficult to adjust the focus when the subject comes in to the shot. Adjust the
focus in advance at the point where the photo is to be taken.
• Set the AF trigger to [FOCUS] and you can fix the focus even if you press the
shutter button halfway. (P41)
• [AUTO] setting in [W.BALANCE] works best when recording outdoors in the
daytime. When using indoors, the colour balance can change. You can change the
white balance setting. (P60)
• The stabilizer function is effective only when taking a picture horizontally moving
the camera from side to side.
Recording images (advanced)
Panning is a technique of moving the camera
while tracking a subject in motion.
Using a slower shutter speed when tracking a
subject, you can sharply photograph a subject

in motion while blurring the background.
In the very bright summer daylight, if the
shutter speed can not be set slower enough
to blur the background, please use the
ND filter (DMW-LND55, optional). (P65)
Please try to use the prefocus technique to
reduce the time for focusing while shooting a
fast moving subject. (P41)
