I almost got the ball he was chasing, which would have made it better.

Not that easy to do, is it?

No its not. I probably should have been on the other side so the sun lit him up. 0

I dont think he's really in focus. I would've used a slower shutter to motion blur the background a bit more.

Definatly a slower shutter speed would help.

Make sure you follow through with the panning in that you only end it when the exposure if totally done, and not before.

Ok thanks!

Since he is running around its impossible to focus manually, which automatic focus should I use for a pan one shot, al focus or al servo?

Yeah the only problem with slower shutter speed is that his legs would blur to much. I like the full sprint look.

It wouldn't be as big of a deal if it was a car and the wheels blur.

AI Servo.

Servo is what i would use, it isn't easy but i found with my dog it looked better if i could get the legs in the tuck position rather than full extend.
Also, could be my monitor here but looks a little cool, white balance maybe? hard to tell as looks like night fall in the near future.

Yeah, it's really bluish on my calibrated monitor too.
