Photographers … long exposures … Night Photography … Help?
I have a Nikon D80 digital SLR, a 18-55G and Tokina 12-24mm wide angle, with two filters of C. Polarizer, and an SB-600 Speedlight. First, my camera is capable of executing the plans, long exposure, and secondly, how I set my camera? Do I need a tripod? Do I need a different purpose? What is involved? I want to be able to take pictures of the stars at night, the roads and get traffic moving again tracks curtain effect, and the effect of foam displacement of current water clouds. Any help is greatly appreciated. Maybe you can refer to a forum that discusses this issue in more detail. Thank you!
1) You need a tripod, since it uses exhibitions long. Any movement (including the camera light) will result in a blurred image. I am generally the timer to activate the shutter, if the tripod has time to settle. If it is windy, the tripod should be sturdy enough. 2) Put the camera in manual mode. Use the help of the exhibition indicates a shutter speed and the opening and use them as your starting point. Take a photo. Consideration on the LCD screen and try different shutter speeds (faster and slower) and see what effects you prefer. 3) By the way, I do not want the polarizing filter at the target for night photography. 4) You can also play with opening. A small opening may accentuate the star of any source of light. You may or may not like this, but he's learning, give him a chance. Of course, if you use an opening lower, it is necessary to compensate by using a slower speed. Experiment. 5) Stars: long exposures. Be prepared for long haul: warm jacket, flashlight (to fix things before the coup, since everything must be very dark), hot drinks, etc. 6) To the tracks: If you want the car to be visible, read the manual the rear curtain sync flash, to be made. Basically you want to flash the car and save the image of the car and leave the shutter open for a little more time to record the tracks. 7) Water: The Experience with a slow shutter speed (1 / 30 sec., 1 / 15 sec. Etc) to effct he loves. If it is too intense, you can not be able to obtain the correct exposure (you get over-exposure), you may want to buy a neutral density filter, which reduces the amount of light entering photo camera. Above all, experience … lots.
