OMG... I had no idea it could be so easy to create awesome water photographs with droplets. I want to say that I already had some really cool shots 1 hr into starting to set up.
I want to thank the people behind the PLUTO TRIGGER for letting me test it out. This folks is one really cool accessory for your DSLR. I am not getting paid to say this but this could be my favourite camera accessory I have gotten lately and I can't wait to test it out more.

I've been doing water drop photography for a couple of years now, and I STILL just use a medicine dropper and manually squeeze two (or more) droplets out, and manually fire the camera shutter. It's possible to get amazing photos this way, and I've also done water drop reflections (refraction) and they look good. I'm on Insta under Macrodrop. All photos captured manually! There are definitely limitations to manual drops, but the reward is high!

@55Ramius 5 лет назад

Great video and I will consider getting those parts. Mainly the Pluto trigger but rest of the items too. Can use for more things I think. Thanks for the info.

@robnelsonfilms 5 лет назад

Thanks! Yes, the Pluto is really cool. And it packs so many other trigger functions. Sound, lightning, light, movement, breaking of a laser beam... So cool. Good luck!

@jeremyFNP 5 лет назад

First Man is one of my favorites to watch! Too bad his trigger is expensive compared to the Pluto trigger! I love my Pluto trigger I just wish I had more time to play with it!

@robnelsonfilms 5 лет назад

Yes, I feel the same. I first looked into the other trigger systems but when I found the Pluto I just had to test it out. Thanks for commenting!

@zushde 5 лет назад

@robnelsonfilms 5 лет назад

Anytime! It really is a cool system.

Just found your video and subscribed to your channel. Being a scientist myself, I enjoyed this video; it was straight forward and to the point. I have been doing research (prior to starting) on water drop collision photography, and after watching this video I ordered the full Pluto setup for use with my relatively new FujiFilm X-T4 camera. I have not yet gotten a flash unit, but had a question regarding the use of a flash with the Pluto Trigger. You mentioned in the video that it was (many times) better to have more than one flash for the water drop collisions although you were using just one. My question for you (or perhaps your other viewers) is: Does the Pluto Trigger support multiple remote flashes? I noted in reviewing the Pluto Trigger that it appears to have only one output jack for triggering a flash. Thank you for the great video, I will be following your channel in the future. I hope you will do some further videos regarding the Pluto Trigger and its many functions. I believe that the Pluto Website states that the trigger has a total of 24 modes/functions.

@NakulKotwal 3 года назад

I don't have an external flash. Can I do this in natural sunlight?

@slblars 5 лет назад

Much job, but it gives a really nice result! Thank you!

@robnelsonfilms 5 лет назад

You know I actually think it took way less time to get started than I expected. In about 1hr from starting to set things up I had my first Ok photos. I thought that was pretty good considering all the pieces that go into making this possible. Thanks for commenting and glad you liked the result! :) - Jonas

@IndustrialPlasticsNanaimo 5 лет назад

That was very cool Jonas. Would doing photo bursts come close and using different lighting without a flash work? I really like these types of videos you two put out. Thanks very much. Looks and sounds very time consuming. Cheers, Jeff O

@robnelsonfilms 5 лет назад

You know, I am actually not sure it would. All the other droplet photography experts I have found claim that the flash firing as quickly as possible (ie. not staying lit for long) is the key to getting these pictures.There is just so much motion blur otherwise. But hey, maybe if you can get enough light to bump the shutter speed up as fast as possible, then maybe it could work. I would have to test it out (if I could find enough lights... :) ) The system with the flash is by far the easiest I can think of. And considering it only took about 1hr between starting to set up to when I got the first ok shots I was really impressed. As always thanks for support and comments Jeff!

@ulriktnnesen5987 5 лет назад

You would most likely get motion blur if you did it without a flash. It's the light from the flash that freezes the moment with a rapid emission of light. The lower the flash power the shorter the duration, so 1/128 flash power is the quickest option (1/23.000 sec on my flash). In this type of photography the flash kinda acts like your shutter speed. Here is a link with some tables that shows the flash settings converted to shutter speeds :) improvephotography.com/46974/flash-duration-speedlights-long-pop-flash/

@johnhoward2352 4 года назад

Excellent tutorial, thanks a lot. Do you know the proportions using xanthan gum? Mixing with the water?

@robnelsonfilms 4 года назад

Thank you. But sorry, I actually won't be able to help you with xantham gum stuff. I suggest checking the tutorials by First Man Photography for that. He's a master here. :)

@Artchick1972 4 года назад

The only thing I don't have is a stand for the dropper. What do recommend? I have Miosp dropper

@robnelsonfilms 4 года назад

I am happy with the clamp I have that I got from the Pluto Trigger shop but I think there are many different solutions to this. If budget is a problem I I am pretty sure you could build your own quite easy. If you are searching around for different solutions I think you could also look at chemistry lab items. Many times there in chemistry setups you need to clamp flaska or glass pipettes etc to a stand for different reasons. This is something I am thinking would be great for a bunch of different photography ideas I have. They are usually really stable. Good luck and thanks for commenting!

@Listondmp 5 лет назад

Great video!! But how would you do this without the trigger?? Greetings from Chile!!!

@jbratt 5 лет назад

Listondmp I have done it but there are a lot of misses. Just keep shooting and time it out like hitting a baseball.

@robnelsonfilms 5 лет назад

I agree with JBratt. LOTS of shots and lots of misses. The action happens so ridiculously fast that I can't even see it without the flash. Trying to time it "manually"... I can't even imaging how I would do it. But if you get some good shots without the trigger I would love to see them! Thanks as always for commenting! - Jonas

@Veptis 5 лет назад

You got a big Sony there doing 120fps, I got a tiny Sony doing like 500fps at an workable resolution that is nice because I don't have any off camera flashes. But why do droplets? Throw a bucket full of water or let some grapes impact. Highspeed photography is a skill that needs experience and precision. Like the guy that shot a bullet splitting a playing card in half in 1930 with large format cameras.

@robnelsonfilms 5 лет назад

Hey! My Sony shoots 240fps at HD1080 but that is not even close to getting crisp images compared to the timed high res RAW photos I could get out of synching the camera flash with the dropper. I honestly don't think I could have got images like this freezing the action at the exact moment without using the trigger-flash system I had. At least not in any comparable quality as the high res RAW photos I get from the still camera. But I agree, there are a lot more things to experiment here. I have only really scraped the surface. More to come. Thanks for commenting. - Jonas

Does this work with mirrorless cameras

@robnelsonfilms 5 лет назад

Looks like it. If you click the link that takes you to the Pluto page and check the different cables to choose from to connect the Pluto device to the camera you can see all the camera models they have listed. I just did a quick search and it looks like most/many of the Sony and Panasonic mirrorless cameras are there. Good luck!

@azdigbee 5 лет назад

Dropper and trigger setup...... saddly much too expensive for the rest of us.

@robnelsonfilms 5 лет назад

I understand this is quite a significant cost but in reference to other similar setups I think it is a pretty good deal. Plus, it comes packed with a bunch of other features that replaces other remote controls that you would need for timelapse photography and stuff like that, usually at least $50, and there is a laser trigger unit included that fires the camera if something, like a bird or bat, breaks a laser beam. I am not saying it is a price that everyone will be able to pay, but I will say that I think the price is justified from their end. It is a pretty cool unit.

@ulriktnnesen5987 5 лет назад

It can be done with an eyedropper and a flash, but it's more prone to human error and bad timing. The setup makes it easier though. Have a nice day :)
