    Just watched the video while lying in bed only to find mine was selected to show. I was so excited I woke my wife up to show her. We watched the video together and now she is asking where we are going for the next assignment. 😍😍😍. Thanks Attilio for another great video. Personally We loved the ND6 version the most due to the slight increase in colour over the others.

    Hi Attilio, Thank you for your hard work and for making these videos. Is using live view when doing the initial exposure (no filters) good? How do long exposures wear on the sensor? If you are using live view and making long exposures (300 sec to 700 sec), what advice do you have about batteries? Finally, do you ever use focus stacking with normal (50-70mm lenses) or is that just not practical with the fast-changing light? Appreciate the help.

    Thank you so much for sharing your valuable experience with us. I started studying your videos about long exposure a few days before, and I am excited to start shooting long exposure during the day. Until now I was shooting primarily Milkyway and Startrails, but daytime long exposure photography is a new photography world to me. By the way NISI is discontinuing their ND calculator app (for android at least). I am thinking to buy soon a square ND filter set from K&F to start my long exposure adventure!

  • @barrydillon8801
    @barrydillon8801 3 года назад +10

    Olympus can make long exposure easy with a 60 second exposure in aperture priorities or LIVE TIME allowing you to see the exposure and histogram build over time. You then stop when histogram is far enough to the right. Perhaps too easy

    Being only new to long exposure photography, and not necessarily a fan, you perhaps are converting me. Ive only recently bought a NISI ND-VARIO 1-5 Stops mainly for video which it seems will not be enough stops for long exposure still photography, but living on the coast of Australia I will give it a go anyway. I will experiment adding a CPL filter and maybe my cheap Newer filters but not hopeful. I love your enthusiasm and explanations. A new subscriber.

    Thanks for doing this series - I very much appreciate them. I'm learning a lot with each episode. Right now circumstances make traveling in my state in Australia...difficult. We were in (virus-induced) lockdown for several weeks, then had severe storms which resulted in me driving to a location only to find a "road closed" sign when I got there. Grrr. But...the great thing about your clips is that they're so very worthwhile, and once I'm properly mobile again, I can just re-watch them and then follow your exercises.

    I appreciate your use of a more monochrome environment here - many of your shots are so colorful. This simplifies the topic at hand and let's people focus on the important elements added (or not) by using long exposure. Also, not as much post-processing enhancement "required". Very nice.

  • @BrianRussell
    @BrianRussell 3 года назад +1

    Great video again Attilio.
    What do you think about taking multiple long exposures, then combining those in Photoshop? E.g. a 5+3+10' would give your the flexibility in post processing for an equivalent of any of 3, 5, 8, 10, 13, 15, 18 minutes by combining them.
    The reason I ask is I got a good result by combining two 4' exposures in order to eliminate noise. Fuji cameras have terrible snow when doing multi minute exposures, unless you use the LENR function or the above technique.

    @williamfriggle 2 года назад

    Hello Mr. Ruffo. I have a question. I have done photography seriously off and on, mostly on, for 40 years. I did some schooling in New York. Took advanced courses in Landscape photography. But the past 15 years I have done mostly wildlife photography. I do miss doing landscapes and want to do more of it. but like you, I really like water scenes with long exposure. I became disabled years ago and money is tight, to say the least. I do not have any neutral density filters. Only a polarizer which is obviously not enough. Is there a decent set of filters for around $100? I think I could scrape that together in a couple of months. Hopefully. Thanks in advance. I love your videos. I hope you have an amazing 2022. God bless.

    @Ruscombephotos 3 года назад

    I did like the last image, but also liked the second to last, because you could still see some of the roughness in the sea, which is dramatic. Had I have been there, I would also have been tempted to try and capture some of the waves breaking over the breakwater with a faster shutter speed (not super fast) maybe just a few seconds. But that may have required setting up in a different location. At our local coast on Long Island Sound, the water is almost always flat calm, so it doesn’t take much to smooth it out completely. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a chance to photograph a rough sea.

  • @JLStreetDoc

    I really like the 20 second photo. Your videos are very inspiring, now I want to go out with my camera :)
    My Fuji X-H1 could automatically choose the long exposure times in A mode - my Nikon Z6 can only do 30 seconds max without remote shutter :( Not sure if they improved that in the Z6II already.
    I'm searching for a new filter kit at the moment. Not so easy to find one for the Z 14-30 lens because you have to buy larger filters when you want to stack 2 or more :D Probably go with Kase round magnetic filter system - 95mm.

    ND100K is the best to use when doing long exposure imo otherwise it's not even worth doing a "long exposure". Anything longer than 2 minutes is also way too long. I've spent an entire afternoon figuring out what looks best but I was doing it on a bright day.
