Does it work now?

Yep all is good now.

Man, those images above are also fantastic. Where abouts is that roller coaster?

[EvilBoris]

The rollercoaster is in Margate, Kent. I think it was burned down a few years back, it's the UKs oldest rollercoaster.

All my photos are geotagged by my camera , do you can see exactly where they are

It was a clear evening, so I ran off into the countryside to grab a few shots, turned into a 4 hour expedition.

You using a full frame camera Boris? those are some seriously sharp low light shots.

Good stuff EB - so some of those on Flickr.

I got something else that digitises light:



I didn't factor in lens cost though - it seems it'll be cheaper to buy another kit than a NX mount lens on its own. Just waiting for a M42 converter to turn up - these NX series are APS-C mirrorless cameras.

Yeah it's a full frame camera I have, some of these are using either dual-ISO techniques (Magic Lantern firmware) and some even multiple exposure blending instead / on top of that. Those extra things help me with my low light stuff, although I think the two that you quoted there were simply using a tripod.

Low light noise it what always annoyed me the most during the processing period, so I went full frame for that reason. I don't do lots of low light stuff, but the amazing sensor allows me to get sharper shots from handheld stuff when I dial up the ISO levels or I'm using the 24-105mm L glass lens that I use for 99% of my stuff, which due to being a zoom lens, has reduced transparency.

cool, time for a google maps scan.

Yep great shots, EB. Glowing Stream and 5445 are simply fantastic.

I heard about some Owls near a reservoir close to me a few days ago, so went down to see if I could find them at 6am.

The flying one just made my first appearance in Exposed as well. So so happy and chuffed

Awesome shots tommy. What camera and lens did you use?

[charlesr]

Heh, they spotted you then?!

[TommyG]

Thanks mate. It's a 7D with a 400mm f/5.6 prime

[TommyG]

Haha yup. The one I got in mid air screeched at me as well. What I didn't realise was how huge they are. Their wing span is massive.

[Anpanman]

Thanks mate. It's a 7D with a 400mm f/5.6 prime

Great lens and great shots too, well done.

Went back to Rutland Water this evening with the Fujifilm S5 Pro and some ND filters for some longer exposure stuff. Got a couple of nice pics.
