Im shooting in a club for a friends party tonight and have my flash and lights loaned out right now. Any advice on some settings to achieve half-way decent images/video. Using a mark ii with a prime 35mm 1.4

@xtidwellx1 You'll probably have to shoot wide open at 1.4. Will make for some interesting images if you're good at focus. Otherwise you might have to resort to shutter speeds slower than 1/60th (which will make the images blurry in movement). Good luck!

what are the 3 white dots flying on the sky on 00:06?

[yarnmaker]

@mariafranciska09 They are reflections of the headlights on the street.

Oh. That is traffic up on the hill? 3/4 the way up the screen looks like it is coming out of the street light

[yarnmaker]

@Art543 No - its the same headlights that are on the street, just reflected inside the lens.
