SUMMARY:Members Evening - Night Photography - Light Painting
DESCRIPTION:Another practical – cameras and tripods (and warm clothing) required. \nTips: \nIdeally you should have a wide angle lens ready for this event (less than 50mm focal length – 35mm/Full Frame equivalent) \nThis activity involves long exposures of 30 seconds or more\, so a tripod is a must! \nAlso check you camera for how to do long (also known as Bulb) exposures. Ideally a trigger/release (or phone app) as well to prevent movement of your camera. \nAsk if you need help or want to borrow a tripod.
