  • At 0:21, you showed the picture with people in the foreground, but in the video, you described only taking landscape shots with 4minute exposure.

    How do you incorporate people and flash to this long exposure?

    Is it that the people can move away after the front curtain flash and then the camera can keep going on for the background? or have the people rush in the end for rear curtain flash?

    Thanks,

  • @memonvideo No flash was used. The people were shot with a 3 second exposure at ISO 12,800.

  • Very clear images when it looks so dark Mark, will this work with my D90 as you didn't say which camera you were using although its a Nikon.

  • @joinerkev Yes, it will work with your D90. Check out 7:22 all cameras and settings are shown.

  • Love your videos! When you do the 4 min exp. how to you sort out star trailing. A 4 min startrail looks --- not so good. I can´t do more than 20 sec before the stars start blurring?

  • I'm curious why you set the white balance even though you were shooting in RAW. Is there a reason for that?

  • Great tutorial:)

  • @snapfactory That ISO can only be used with a Full frame sensor correct? My T2i can not pull this off I dont think. I also have issues with getting White balance correct sense it does not have a incandescent setting. tungsten is too blue looking. All other settings give me an orange glow. I am in the city area but not right in the middle of it, rather the edge of the mountain range.

  • you are my master :)

    i'm learning alot from you

  • Wow thats truly amazing :)
