By contrast, if you pan your camera quickly or shake it unnecessarily while pressing the shutter, your camera is really moving at a very high rate of speed, relatively speaking.
When you must pan the camera, keep your elbow free and pivot your body at the waist.
The unique diagonal bracing of the ball clamping mechanism completely prevents it from being tilted to the other side, forcing you to pan the head around to get the same range of motion a more traditional ballhead affords.
As you're rotating, if the foreground edge moves in the same direction as the pan, you're mounted too far behind the nodal point-slide the camera forward; if the foreground edge moves in the opposite direction as the pan, ...
For all of my images I shoot using Ilford Pan FPlus, which has a film speed of 50. I develop the film in my studio using Ilford ID-11 powder developer and standard photographic chemicals.
