How do you capture your night photos? Tell us your process in the comments!

[@old4004]

Thanks, guys! Always a good training episode when you're on RUclips. I always learn.

[@andycoleman2708]

So much great information!

[@marcycohen1996]

Great information and presentation. Very concise with all the information you need to know to get out there and get some great images. Thanks to the presenters from NPAN and B&H for making these available on RUclips

[@EddyHerreraCC]

If only I didn't live right next to a city! Gotta travel for these but the shots are worth it! Great video 🔥

[@pictureeyecandy]

Thank you, B&H for separating each of the Optic 2021 I think I have seen All of Optic 2021 but I still rewatch them to remember because Optic days were long and I got tired.

[@anthonydonofrio1061]

Awesome video! Thanks so much for the excellent information!

[@edub9930]

Thank you guys for sharing this knowledge

[@ThePinoyAggie]

These are awesome, guys! Thank you.

[@nanettehayakawa7628]

Thanks B&H, this was good information for me to see because like most things that need to be researched - this was it. This information is good research material before I embark on a Landscape Photography Workshop. I know more and more about what parts of these photographic processes that I enjoy doing and which ones are more experimental, all of that being useful in context of learning the use of my camera. Thanks.

[@jasonlacey5979]

Excellent... Thank you

Light painting in national parks? Is it allowed in certain parks and not in others?

[@samsen3965]

0:13 _A_M_A_Z_I_N_G_
My favorite, due to virginity of view and incorporated discovery in style/talent.

[@samsen3965]

1:00 Isn't this that spot on the top of the hill when elevating towards the "Big Bear Lake" CA?

[@lindagrigsby5460]

I thought that you cannot use fill light in national parks.

[@BandH]

A permit is required if your shooting activity uses model(s), sets(s), or prop(s) that are not a part of the location’s natural or cultural resources or administrative facilities. The Commercial Filming and Photography permit, does not allow the use of artificial lights between dusk and dawn. >Mark

To be honest .. only Mat did a good job here. First of all, ff cameras are not the best option in astrophotography, but the m43 and especially olympus. Star trail photography? With olympus, you have a 5-stop advantage in thermal noise, you have live bulb mode, you have live composite, you have autofocus for stars, you have buil in intervalometer.
Use the skytracker for the milky way (omegon lx3-200 $, star adveturer /skyguider pro -400-500 $). The M43 has twice as much depth of field, the lenses have a lot less vignette and, as I mentioned earlier, camera have a lot less thermal noise. A smaller vignette also means much less shots for the panorama. If you still think ff is your best choice, check out cameras dedicated to astrophotography and deep sky photography. They all have an m43 sensor. Don't be fooled. Spend less money and take better photos. I used d4s, d5, d750 and a9 myself. Real life example. Sigma art 35 1.4 is usable for astro on f4, olympus 17mm 1.2 is usable on f1.6-1.8. The same with 85 1.4 and 45 1.2.
