Hi guys ,

 

So I'm about to take a video of a 11 hectare area that is overlooking the city and sea. I have the sel 35 and kit lens for a6000.

 

I have 2 tripods a >

 

vct r640 tripod 

 

sirui ballhead tripod

 

sony remote

 

 

The area is not yet developed ( actually the grass right now is being cut and other plants that are obstructing the cinematic view ).

 

1.) What is the idea time so that the buildings, and the sea and skies are clear? Went there last Monday around 8 - 10 am and the buildings were not that clear ( smoke ).

 

2. ) Any video tips I should do? Since there are 2 areas, 1 is 5 hectares and the other is 6. Should I take videos on all "key areas" ? Or corners? Or just the best spots of the land ?

 

3.) What video software do you recommend so I can edit the clips and put them together in a Cd, tried windows movie maker it's ok but I want to try something with effects ( mostly text effects ).

 

4.) I will also be taking pictures of the area so I can use it in tarpaulins / posters/ facebook so I can advertise it.

      ISO Bracketing

      By popeye10 · Posted

      Thanks for the information. Since my original post, I did some "experiments" at different iso settings. Best results were obtained at iso 320, and then increasing the exposure by four stops in Lightroom. The biggest difference compared to using a higher iso was that there was detail in dark foreground areas, while at high iso the dark areas were blocked. This is consistent with articles I've read about ISO invariance.

      I do a bit of astro photography and do a lot of research etc. on best settings to use. I have never heard of anyone using ISO bracketing! Typically, higher ISO settings such as 1600, 3200 or 6400 are used and multiple light and dark frames are stacked to reduce noise. If you are worried about noise in dark foreground areas then just use a seperate exposure for them then blend the exposures in post processing. By the way, I also have an A7R5.

      I would try resetting the camera. I can’t really think of anything else you can do other than try a different card.
