- Night 11 of the Aurora Hunt was The Night! Here’s an 8-minute video containing my 1st ever real-time aurora footage shot with the Sony A7s II mirrorless camera (with Nikkor 24mm/f1.4 lens). This is the ACTUAL SPEED the northern lights were dancing. I was on a 2-1/2 week aurora hunt which took me 750 road-tripping miles from my Anchorage home to the Brooks Range of Northern Alaska. November 1, 2015 was scary windy with snowdrifts forming on the Haul Road but the aurora explosions that filled the sky were fantastic! I've been aurora hunting for a living since 1997 and this blew me away. Hope you enjoy.

THE Real Deal , Beautiful no time lapse needed and that's with the Moon up to ! Amazing ,and Wolves as well it doesn't get much better than that ! Regards Bri.
My feet aren’t even cold! Thank you for a magnificent night under the stars and Aurora. Sounds like you were in just the place you needed to be, Life is what happens when you’re busy making plans.
The music is exquisite and matches the video nicely, and I really like the extra bit with the wolf you added on at the end.
Thanks Darlisa! I had a howling good time putting this together.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I'm obsessed with auroras but live in California so I've never seen one except for hundreds of youtube videos. I appreciate the real time video. It's almost like I'm there!!
An awesome video of the Auroras! I used to work in Alaska some years back. Was able to see some spectacular sights in person... Now I'm retired and want so much to do what you've done, just travel and photograph the spectacular sights of nature and our Earth's beauty! Thanks for your video post!
WOW!!. Just wow!
This is absolute awesome! Sony a7sII is a camera of legend, the unprecedented low light performance makes this video possible.
so beautiful I am in awe like so many I can only dream to see them
Made me super emotional watching this - miss home! And your "WHOO!"?! Said the same thing at the same time... *grin*
Thanks for posting this - awesome job! :D
A long delayed by heartfelt thank you, Renee!!
Great footage
Awesome freaking awesome love the wolf howling at the end. Very tranquil.
Wow! I'm really enjoying the beauty in your video.
Night beauty.
Really nice clean video with beautiful back drops, loved it ! I have just got my Mk1 A7s and hope to shoot something nice in Iceland in March not got a clue about video and settings 😃
Todd that was awesome!! Hope to get back down to Anchorage soon, will be going with the Sony A7II s and a adapter for my Cannon glass. Great time talking with you. John
Gracias por compartir esta maravilla.
thanks very much for bringing this to all of us....esp those of us who might never get to see this up 4 real ,,,,tks again!
Todd, this was just over the top incredible. I have such a connection with things in the sky, and felt something I’ve never felt before while watching this. I need to be in the presence of this spectacular phenomenon before I die. Glad to see you follow your heart from the halls of Prairie all the way to Alaska. Thanks for sharing.
Really enjoyed watching Todd - excellent footage - you made me laugh when you were leaving when you shouted ' thank you' as that is exactly what I do! always treat her with respect! The best part of your footage is that you showed what it was like to be on your own in the Wild watching her beauty without the 'blue suit' army of Tourist - nice one!
Thank you 77jpw. I definitely have respect, appreciation and live for these grand moments in nature. And I have to admit I feel it a lot deeper when I'm what I call "lone wolf mode."
Beautiful video Todd. Thanks so much for posting this. At my age, I'll probably never be able to get to a place to see an Aurora in person. It must be amazing. Thanks again.
You're very welcome... and thank you.
...1000 gracias Todd ...por compartir con todo el mundo este maravilloso documento...!!!
Thank you so much!!!
Great to see, I miss it so bad. Thanks for sharing
Stunning. I do auroral timelapses but they don't really capture the "movement" this video does. Ah, the A7S II is a wonderful piece of kit. Bravo, great captures.
awesome just awesome come on lottery I think the Ats would look a just wondeful under the christmas tree
Nice video Todd. Shame it has so little views. I'll share a link to it on my FaceBook page.
Awesome I really enjoyed it! I'v got the A7s and it seems alot noisier than this in video in my trip last year!
Great work, fantastic video :-) I also once watched this natural theater, on the Lofoten islands.
Amazing,thank you for sharing.
Greetings Todd and thanks for this beautiful video. Are you still hunting the Aurora? I am planing to travel to Iceland. I just want to see it as I do not have a fancy camera or anything like that. I only hope I get lucky with the Aurora...
You're welcome Karajo. Yes, I am still hunting auroras. Best of luck in Iceland!
incredible 👍👍
Could you tell more details on A7s settings? Shutter time? 1/25s ? Any Picture Profile used?
❤️🙌❤️❤️❤️
Awesome!Would you think the Nikon would give reasonable Aurora quality...I know not quite as good as a7s due to higher megapixels, which I desire for daytime stuff ... but since I would be able to output 12bit Raw prores could it still come close to the Nikon Z6 with some noise and color correction. I just want newer video technology as again the camera would be used daytime. Want to avoid buying two cameras. Sony is delaying new models for the unforseen future. I want to wait much longer to finally get a full frame. Thanks!
Corrections.... come close With the Z6, I don't want to wait.
Any knows the music here? It's pretty atmospheric, epic!
Wonderful！！！
Amazing video!!! How cold was it? Is this camera good in cold temperature? or did you have lens heater?
Thank you Horiguchi. Its was around 0° F. The batteries die pretty fast so I keep 2 fully charged back-ups in my warm pocket. No lens heater. Sometimes lens gets frosty but not on this trip.
Todd, amazing quality! Much respect for the work behind it! Earned my sub ;) (a fellow "filmmaker")
Wow,so beautiful
awesome..thank you!
Wow, well done
Thanks Mike!
Awesome on iPad, super awesome on 42" TV!
Nice to hear!
What an amazing, magnificent phenomenon. thank you for capturing this natural, magical wonder so beautifully. And the whoo-ing made me really smile! :) It has been my dream to see auroras for years now and i'm finally taking my parents to see it this year. I would likely be using an a7iii, which I know isn't better than the a7sii. Would greatly appreciate any settings recommendation for a dark sky (new moon) aurora watching night. Thanks heaps :)
👍It is awesome :) Could you plese tell us what was your camera SETTINGS?
What music tracks were used here?
Thanks Todd 🙅♂️🙅♂️
Wonderful :)
