| Are "panning" and "motion panning" the same thing? If yes, why not call this Motion Panning III? If not, then what does that mean? All blurred background with no in-focus subject? :-/ |

I assume that bread is supposed to be an Open challenge also.

Could be. I'm thinking "panning" probably has more potential anyway. |

| "Pan" is "bread" in Japanese; it comes from the Portuguese word, um, "pan". |

Attention Folks With Fancy IS, VR, etc. Glass:
Don't forget to hit the off switch. |

I don't know about Canon, but Nikon VR recognizes panning so no need. |

Pan-Pan, a marine radio alert/distress call, similar to Mayday-Mayday, but used when the situation is not as severe. Pronounced Pon Pon, short "o".
I wonder if that has a connection to the way the scores are going to go?

Yes, I know it's also Spanish, but it came from the Portuguese traders during the Edo period. ;-Þ |

My first thought was panning for gold. Seriously.
EDIT: PS, I'd still like to know if there is a difference between "panning" and "motion panning."

Cause there has been discussion of repeats in the forums recently and this way it looks completely different :-)

My two lowest scores ever - if only this challenge had come at the right time, they might have been my two highest. =D

On Canon's newer glass with IS (like my 70-300), there is a three-way switch for:
Off - turns IS off completely
1 - full IS mode
2 - panning mode

In "motion panning" the object is to keep the subject sharp while blurring everything else. In theory, "panning" allows the creation of images where NOTHING is sharp. Will the voters understand that and appreciate it? Who knows...

Just found this article on panning. Contains some interesting and helpful info - along with some great photos.
ETA: Maybe SC can pipe up and clarify the motion panning vs. panning issue. Though what Bear said seems to echo the articles I found.

I'll see that and raise you this one, which combined elements of straight panning with elements of motion panning and got hammered in the last motion panning challenge:
