Great tips Josh!
Thanks so much Josh! I need lots of practice.
if all you want is background in focus then aperture 7.1 is fine. you use higher f-stop to get foreground elements and the background in focus because higher f-stops give you deeper depth of field. For more info, visit AmazingPhotography.net
The images you show have a lot of dust spots.
Great post
Nice post thank you for the great help
I learned how to take long exposure shots by watching your videos Josh! Don't listen to the haters.(and yes, this is my name…)
So helpful thanks
You can also if your camera has it do some multi exposures, 10 frames at 30 sec = 300 sec it works for me and my D810 keep the great work up.
Buy a Olympus camera they focus fine through a 10 stop fine 😎
Well done Josh, I learned some cool stuff. Your presentation style cuts to the chase … thanks
Hi I'm using 55-250 mm lens and I have no ND filter for my lens so the aperture should be ___ and the Fstop___ and the ISO should be ___ ?
He talks too fast.
After seeing your video. I would like it if you show the pictures loner and show yourself less. The pics go so fast from the shot that I have to stop the video. That is annoying. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for a solid tutorial. One problem I have when using 10 stop ND was trying to blur a waterfall while keeping the bright sky dark. I guess shooting at mid day is not really possible of a waterfall when there is about 10 percent bright sky in the shot. What would you do here? Crop out the sky and take the photo? Or maybe use a graduated filter? I have a polarizing filter and a 10 stop in my kit only.
I tried to use use a 10 stop filter during noon at Mt. Rainier about two weeks ago, but was only able to get a maximum of about 8 seconds. I was trying to show the movement of the clouds covering up the mountain, which were very far away, so I actually needed a much longer photo. What I did was set up the camera's timer to 10 seconds followed by 5 continuous photos so that I could combine them in PS using lighten mode into an effective exposure of about 20 seconds. The exposure was still not as long as I was hoping for, but I learned that having a remote shutter release would come in handy. I wish that camera makers would include bulb ramping in their new camera firmware, although I don't think it's always necessary. I lost my tripod somewhere, so the tilting LCD on my camera helped to stabilize the camera on rocks and still get a great composition. You can see my photography @ https://500px.com/macmierzwinski.
Nice piece of information here.
Thank you!
I love ur videos but I have a problem I have Canon EOS1300d and it has no bulb mode
ok Josh…i get the settings for the shutter, the ap and the iso, but this was to be on the or a 10 stop nd filter. so with the camera settings, what settings on the nd filter. i have the Rodenstock ND filter. so what settings or stop of light do u put the ND filter on . i understand setting up the shot then putting on the filter, but no mention of what number on the filter do u set it at
More like a salesman than a photographer..
