Thanks.

Its panning technique. Set ur camera to roughly the speed of the car
For example, predict how fast the car going to pass by the place where you going to press the trigger.

This car passes me at around 60 .. so shutter speed 1/60. Set ur camera to shutter speed priority and let the camera controls the aperture.

Oh yeah, one more thing. Ask a friend to stand near to the place where your subject going to pass and when u going to press the trigger. Focus on him and lock its focus.

Then as your subject approaches, follow the car make sure the subject dont move around ur viewfinder. Make the subject static in ur LCD or viewfinder. If you are not using a SLR camera most probably you will get shutter lag. Then you need to properly time the car so that when u press trigger and with the lag, your subject should move to the center. Dont count on the camera's autofocus, not fast enough. By the time the camera focuses, the car reach India already.

If picture come out blur (horizontally). Set higher shutter speed (step by step). If vertical blur .. your hand is shaking. No doubt with a SLR camera is easier to do, but a normal camera can also do just need more practice and good timing.

A lot of practice, sitting at the mamak for 1 hour. All cars pass by also kena snap.
