    I've seen upwards of a dozen videos on how to shoot the Milky Way and yours is far better than any of the others. You simplify this process for ordinary mortals like me and I will be using your tips to shoot the Milky Way myself this spring. Thanks for helping take the mystery out of this task!!

    That was an extremely well done video. Right length, the instructor was interesting to listen to, and the content is very repeatable for everyone. Thanks.

    Nicely done video. Here's a trick in Lightroom select sky, then invert that selection and subtract sky. It makes for a better mask and make sure you inverted back to sky. The edge of the mask will be better refined.

    Very helpful, thanks! Just wondering if you used electronic shutter to avoid any shake on the camera that the mechanic shutter might cause, even if you use the timer of the camera

    How did you eliminate the sky at 8:18? I’m not sure what you did there. Thanks!

      I used the Quick Selection Tool to select the sky on the foreground exposure, which it did wonderfully! Then I hit delete on the keyboard. Hope that helps - thanks for watching! - Matt

    Thanks for the great video, I have been waiting for that. I’m in Hawaii and just tried filmed the Milky Way with an erupting volcano in the e background, which came out pretty cool. I have an R6 with the 10-35 lens like you have, a nice tripod and I tried it at a higher ISO but about the same focal length and about half the shutter time. It came out pretty good, but I’m going to reprocess the photos to match what you did! I also noticed it looks like you were using an Adamos five? I have one but haven’t used it yet so I’m going to try using that, can you give any suggestions on using that for nighttime Photography? Thank you.

    • @BandH
      @BandH  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That sounds like quite an epic scene! I was using the Atomos Ninja to screen-record the camera settings for the purposes of this video, so I don't ordinarily use it for night time photography. Although, I do enjoy having a big screen. Thanks for watching! - Matt

    How did you get the shot of the foreground?

    • @BandH
      @BandH  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I took a really long exposure greater than 15 seconds to expose for the foreground. This caused the stars to trail in the sky, which is fine since I deleted that part of the image in the edit. Another option is to take a foreground exposure at blue hour for a more even exposure. - Matt

    If you dont mind me asking, what is plugged into your camera that's sitting on the hot shoe?

    • @BandH
      @BandH  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Mat has an on camera monitor on his camera. He's using the Atomos Ninja V+ which is now the Atomos Ninja Ultra. Check it out here: bhpho.to/4e9YhBC

    How do you get the foreground in focus in the dark? Unlike the stars that are emitting light, the foreground is super dark.

  • @jaredrhod
    @jaredrhod 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    No tracker? Seemed like a great photo without it. Do trackers make the images a lot better? Especially if it’s wide angle stuff like this?

    • @BandH
      @BandH  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I wouldn't say trackers will make images "look better". It will defiantly help with not getting star lines in your photo, but it all depends on what you want in your images and what looks better to you.

    I was at the Comic campground to do my first astrophotography. it comes uneven due to the almost full moon and my struggle to get the camera setting. I Love your video tutorial. However, I am Deaf and I need an accuriate English subtitle. Google automatic CC doesn't have full accuracy so can you add an English subtitle in the future. I also would love to have a checklist and cheatsheet so I can glance at hand when I watch your video. Thanks

      @@BandH thank you so much! I'm very curious about the "feathering" of the border between the foreground and background, which tool did you use?

    • @BandH
      @BandH  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I used the erase tool with the hardness set to zero to feather around the top of the mountain on the foreground exposure. It's also worth experimenting with the opacity of the eraser tool in that scenario as well. Hope that helps! - Matt
