It looks beautiful so beautiful but in its beauty buried a terrible force that can frown the victims of the soul. Lightning rods have meaning and connotation that lightning will be denied and kept away until no more lightning comes. but what about the sense of catching lightning? is it true that lightning can be captured just like catching a chicken or a thief ?? here we will describe how to catch lightning.
capture lightning with a beautiful Angle in a photo shoot
It was a very dark cloudy with a flash of lightning that grabbed a grotesque, horrible at the same time presents an incredible view.
I tried deh to capture it with the Dakota BLACKBERRY camera with its pretty 5 mp resolution, but still not getting the desired image.
Too bright and unfocused ... It turns out to take a picture of a lightning is not as easy as imaginable ... In order not to happen something like the above little we review some tricks to take lightning or catch lightning in order to get good quality.
Taking a photo of a lightning is a bit complicated and requires a high skill as well as luck because lightning does not strike with the same strike and shape so you just have a little bit of precision to get a good angle or angle and a good lightning shot.
Knowing the Situation and Lightning
In a shoot of course the most needed is to determine which objects will be taken, as well as photographing a lightning at least know which areas would have a high lightning boom so that the results of the shots will be more varied with a stunning display.
Preparing the Camera
If you have a digital SLR camera may be tried by using B mode ranging from a minimum of 28 mm to 135 mm lens.
Use the focus lens instead of using zoom as this will be better.
Use a tripod to reduce vibration, use a tripod that is easy to set so you are not late to catch lightning and capture every moment of flash.
Movie speed should also be calculated min 100 or 200 iso. Make sure your lens is in a clean position no stains of any kind, to achieve the perfection of an image.
Maybe you can take the photo at night because during the day usually hindered by the abundant light from the sun.
If it is possible to catch lightning when it rains because rain water can refract light so as to produce color variations, try to stand strongly and not easily sway if the wind blows, otherwise you will get a blurry picture.
In every shooting many disturbances occur from the wind to light pollution or also light-induced.
Proper aperture placement will maximize the image. It is also a mandatory part to be considered.
The following is the lighting setting of lightning film with iso aperture divided into several categories:
Very close (blinding): Lightning CG (<100 m / meter) 100 ISO f / 16-f / 22ISO f / 16-f / 22
Relatively close, dazzling: lightning CG (~ 1 km) 100 ISO f / 11
Distant: CG lightning (5-10 km) 100 f / 5.6 ISo
Far: CC is far lightning (5-10 km) 100 ISO f / 4
Far: CG / CC lightning (10-20 km) 200 ISO f / 4-f / 5.6
Distant: CG / CC lightning (20-50 km) 200 f / 2.8 ISO
And if the lightning distance is very much more or less 5o km then it should also adjust the speed of its film the use of Iso 400 may be more suitable, but shooting with a distance like that is not too good.
Information :
CG = clouds of the ground
CC = Cloud
Ic = inside the cloud.
If you have a camera that is old enough for example Nikon D70 mm SLR with kit lens between 18 -70 mm but you can use 50 mm manual lens focus option is quite old indeed if used for shooting lightning and film with iso 200.
By using a digital camera there is an advantage compared to the manual camera, which results from the portrait can be seen immediately and adjust the camera settings for better results.
Lock the auto focus on infinity so that the camera does not seek focus to and fro when lightning is in progress and you finally lose the moment of lightning. Try the exercises and experiment in case you will get another picture from the others ... good luck. !!
