Is There a Special Word for Crabbing?

4K 60FPS is great for when moving or capturing things that are moving, granted you could do at lower resolution, the 4K just gives you more to work with especially if/when rendering down.

Yeah, that's the plan. For testing the camera I wanted 4K, but it's kind of overkill for inspecting a roof.

Okay, thank you.

In this context, I would think a side-to-side shot without rotation would be a linear pan.

In film world, its called a trucking shot. Trucking shots are camera movement left or right. Dolly shots are camera movement in or out from the subject.

Hi Geek on the Wing,
I would call it a dolly crab. Sounds right for what you are doing and achieving. Johnno Hennessy Australia.

In airplanes, usually to counter a crosswind, it's common to "crab," which means the heading is offset from the linear direction of travel. Is this word also used for quads when done intentionally? Thanks.

I call it strafing.

I call it strafing.

Maybe if your guns are firing.
