  • How to Expose in any given lighting situation; very long exposures and short exposures in the same blended image.

The following equipment is recommended

    • Tripod – Required for long exposure and stitching portion of training

    • Shutter release (Cable or wireless)– You can use a delay mode but that will be cumbersome and time consuming for you. If you shoot past your camera’s standard exposure length capability (I.E Bulb Mode) you will need a cable release and a method to time you exposures. I.E watch or phone app with timer

  • Your intermediate lens and one or two more to capture as wide an angle and as telephoto as you have in your kit.
