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 RU-vid
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.
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.
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.
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
Good information but rushed. Too many unexplained terms used which could be hinted at or even footnoted as to where more information could be found. Let someone who is relatively new to this type of photography sit through this before a release. If you truly wish to impart new knowledge, this should be done. It's is understood that such a complex subject the presenters could not take the time to educate on each jargon but a banner or quick reference to more information on a more complicated subject- topics would be warranted. I got a degree in photography in 1976, I ran a studio for 24 years and ended my career as a scientific photographer, 15 years aboard a research vessel. As a life long professional shooter, I know these terms need additional explanation or pathways for further study.
