Wink That "zoom effect"

Someone requested one of these, so here you go.

It's quick, it's dirty and it's REALLY REALLY EASY.

  1. Frame your shot how you want it to appear
  2. Set exposure to something greater than 0.5s
  3. Mash shutter butan
  4. Twist the zoom ring to zoom in or out slightly
  5. Observe
  6. Repeat if unhappy
  7. Be pleased with yourself
  8. Drink a pint

Here's an example I shot a while back:
