You can make   burst or  blur zoom  photo using simply technique. Just rotate the zoom ring in lens while the camera take the exposure, and voila our eye will get picture like this. In zoom blur /burst there are blur lines that make the subject feels like they are moving. When you use this in right situation, this technique can change ordinary subject become amazing!


The Things that You Need

The point is that we will change the focal length during the camera is taking the picture. So, while the shutter is open , we will rotate the zoom ring in lens manually. Thus, first thing that you need is a Zoom lens and camera , also never give up to try and try for several times to get the best picture. 

Exposure

To get moving effect, we use low shutter speed better than usual. Just using your hand, the shutter range between 1/ until 1/10 seconds are enough, we can use the lower shutter speed if we use tripod. Don't forget to set your camera mode in Shutter Priority (TV or S) and try some different setting until you got the best photo.

Focus

If you just want to try, for exercise place a subject as as the focus point in the center of frame. You can use manual focus or back button focusing

Zooming

Set lens in the longest zoom position and place the main subject at the center of frame. While the right hand is pressing the shutter, rotate the zoom ring until the focal length is shortened. For the first trial, move the zoom ring softly. We don't have to rotate the zoom ring until full. On the next  trial, move it quickly ( as stable as possible). Look at the different results? Which ones you like?

Extra Equipments

If you have tripod , this equipment can be used to make the sharp part  of photo more stable, so the blur lines but the shape is still straight. With using tripod we also can try the burst zoom technique in the night , but with hand it's just impossible.
