Long exposure tutorial with Scott Kelby

http://www.WeeklyPhotoTips.com/

We had the pleasure of spending some time with Scott Kelby last week while he was vacationing here in the lovely state Maine.

Scott was kind enough to shoot a long exposure tutorial for us (and our viewers), and here it is.

Great video and I love Scott. I have the Digital Photography 1-3 and it so amazing.

By the way, There are something I cannot find the answer. How do I know how long it will take, when I go to manual (bulb) mode, to get a balance exposure? not over, not underexposure.

Thank you.

@eosbill It really has a lot of variables, is it a sunny day or cloudy? What ND filter are you using, 6, 8, 10?

Because of that it really is a guessing game, you will simply pick a number out of the hat (say 2 minutes) and shoot, then adjust accordingly.

Picture too dark? try three minutes.... too light? try one. And then keep adjusting up or down to fine tune it.

I know this isn't really the answer you may have been looking for, but I hope it helps.

hi, am new to photogrpahy. What happens if you don't have filter and want to take long exp photos during the day? will the picture be too bright? Is it even possible to take long exposure photos during the day without a filter? thanks.

@aaronarman89 it will end up looking like you took a picture of a sheet of white paper...

For any Canon users, Magic Lantern is the way to go if you dont want to hold a button for several minutes, and for timelapses, and andvanced movie recording, and for super extended settings like graphes, live highlight alerts in live view+++ It pretty awesome (for me atleast)

@shule990 I did send you a chart on your channel. Another thing you me try by memory is the 1/30s:30s rule (with the b+w 110). Which mean at 1/30s without filter it should give you 30s with filter on. If you use 1/60s since we divide by 2 the time with filter on will be cut in half 15s, 1/25s will become 8s, etc. The other way around would be the same thing, 1/15s = 60s (we double the time), 1/8s = 2min, 1/4s = 4min, 1/2s = 8min, 1s = 16min if you can remember that rule your ready to go.

@TheJustMotion Um... he said "MOST Nikon DSLR's have a *base* iso of 200". So he wasn't wrong.

Sure many from recent years go down to 100 but the base iso without manipulation is 200. In the most recent Nikons the base is 100 and they can extend below that to 50.

that is awesome can't wait to try it out

[TheJustMotion]

shows how much he knows about his D3 that it extends down to 100 on Lo 1.0 :/

how would a CPL affect the output when shooting on waters and skies?
