Post by: russellsnr on January 13, 2018, 09:24:56 AM
Hi, Looking for some information as to how to shoot still images  in the City/Town at night useing M/L as an aid to do so, not new to M/L but never tried the night time shooting before. Thankyou for any advice. Russ

I use the silent module in combination with Dual ISO for shooting full resolution silent pictures.   It works with both: stills and timelapses with intervalometer.  Image quality is fantastic and the shots are very impressive!  Just make sure, you don't overexpose the highlights.  Dual ISO will take care of the rest.

Happy experimenting!

Here is a short film of mine containing timelapses, including city lights, shot with Magic Lantern in this way:

Thankyou, Watched it and very good. I assume that you do not use the intervalometer for the stills side of shooting? Thanks, Russ.
