Hi I'm John Arnold, today I'm going to do a quick one minute video showing you how to shoot a zoom burst picture using a digital SLR and zoom lens. So what we've got here, this is a 5D Marat 2 but it could be any of the digital SLR's. What you need for this process to work is a lens that you can do a zoom on. So this lens is a 24 to 70 and you can see I've got a turnipart that lets me zoom in and out. That is essential for what we're going to do. We're going to make a zoom effect by zooming the lens while the shutter is open. So we're going to do a long slow shutter speed. In this case I'm shooting at a 20th of a second, I've set full manual. I'm not going to go into the details of how you get your exposure right there but you want to make sure that your shutter speed is a 20th of a second. You could try using the time value or shutter priority mode on your camera. Set the shutter speed down to a 20th of a second and you may need to mess with your aperture and your ISO until you get a good exposure. So another key part of getting one of these pictures right quickly is to use a tripod. So I've got my tripod shoe on here, I'm going to stick that on the tripod and I've got a little subject here, I've got some toy cars. Great subjects for zoom bursts are anything that's colourful, anything that should have movement. People if you can get really good at this, make great zoom burst effects and all you're going to do, I'm just going to compose this so that the point that I want in focus is right in the middle of the frame. The point that in this case I've got Scooby Doo here and his eyes are where I'm going to put the focus. And I'm going to just get him right in the centre, I'm going to press the shutter button and I'm going to turn the shutter, turn the zoom as I press the shutter. So click and zoom and then do it again, click and zoom. And that's it, simple as that. 20th of a second is a great place to start. 10th of a second if you want a longer zoom effect and go out, take some pictures and post them on the Google plus group. We've got a photo walkthrough group on Google plus, please join us there, post your pictures, show us what you've done, show us the fun you're having with this and we're trying to do a bit of critique of each other's pictures.
