Perseid Meteor Shower 2024 Highlights - Real Time 4K 

Likewise! I've been out capturing this shower for several years in a row now and this was easily the best display I've seen. So many more meteors than previous years

Greetings from the Czech Republic, we were stargazing around the same time 🤝

Best one I saw was having a fag on my doorstep and saw a green glow behind the clouds which I followed for a good few seconds for it to come through the clouds and burn up . Honestly I don’t think il ever see a better one

why wait until you're retired 😉

good for you, man. i hope you can achieve your goals. i wish i had the money to buy all the necessary instruments to do astrophotography. too bad i live in an 8th-world country…

I saw those too- last night. Was hoping someone got that on camera!

sounds amazing! We had a good display of the northern lights in southern England too last night. Was amazing seeing them with shooting stars falling everywhere. Was a special night wasn't it!

What time?

@@darius-xb7tl Well it’s peaking now at around 4PM but it is not dark yet so max peak was early this morning or tonight between 10PM and 4AM in the UK.

​@@thetallweatherman2246Cool I missed it last night so will stay up tonight ✨

@@dumblizzie I saw last night briefly. Peak will last till midnight tonight.

I caught coloured meteors on my still camera images, which is a first for me. So I am thinking it was the Northern Lights possibly filtering through?

Hi! Thanks for the kind words about the video, I'm glad you enjoyed it. My settings are as follows: Put camera into video mode and Set exposure to manual Shutter speed 1/25 Aperture F1.4 ISO 64,000 - 80,000 but no more than this or it will be very noisy and hard to fix. Picture Profile: PP7. This is important. Once you have shot the footage it will need to be edited as PP7 is a very flat picture profile so you would need to edit the footage in premiere pro or final cut and bring the highlights up and the shadows down. Bringing the shadows down is what keeps the noise low. I don't use any desnoise software. I edit in premiere pro and edit the clips using two adjustment layers on top of each other. All I really do is bring up the highlights and bring shadows down in luminetri colours tab on both adjustment layers. I sometimes increase the saturation of the green to bring out the colour of the tails. Hope this helps 😊

@@MagicCarpetMedia aaaaaah got it thx, i was using standard PP i will do some test with PP7. Do you use Pal or Ntsc mode ? I saw in the A7s Mk1 the ntsc mode brings better quality in extreme low light videos.

sadly i dont think so

It’ll be one hour after the sunset, so be on the lookout when it gets really dark

I live in Grantham and managed to see 5-6 last night, thankfully the clouds cleared up later in the night
