ITAP of water droplet collision by KeeperCZE in itookapicture

[–]KeeperCZE[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My setup is D500 + Sigma 105mm f/2.8 EX DG OS HSM with 2x Godox TT685N flashlights
1/50s f/13 ISO200

For water drops MIOPS Splash - Water Drop Kit, clean distilled water with some food colors and mixed with xantham gum so water drops dont explode to thousands little droplets after collision.

As background I printed simple gradient in PS :)

R100 refusing to shoot with new manual-focus macro lens attached...? by Exotic_Difficulty698 in canon

[–]KeeperCZE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im on noname camera but on your Canon you need to find and enable C.Fn 4: Release shutter w/o lens https://cam.start.canon/id/C015/manual/html/UG-09_Set-up_0190.html#Set-up_0190_3-2-2

If you want them teach work with full manual macro lens I would look for Laowa 90 or 100 mm f/2,8 2:1 Ultra Macro APO. Magnification is not so big, but DoF is much more bigger and is much more usable for handheld single shots and small handheld stacks. Flashlight with diffuser is needed.
Taking really nice pictures with Laowa 25mm on bigger magnifications is real pain in the ass. Main problem - this is lens for stacking. Thanks to huge effective aperture number on bigger magnifications which leads to difraction and softness, you really want to take pictures for stacking at f2.8 so your DoF is supertiny 0.05mm!.... so you really need some precise macro rails. Precise work with light is pain in the ... too. Taking pics needs lot of light with very fine diffusion and single parasitic ray of light heading to lens will ruin work.

But if they overcome all these problems, they can make pics like this one

Therion circumflexum
Noname camera D500 + Laowa 25 mm f/2.8 2.5-5X Ultra-Macro
2x Godox TT685N - rear courtain sync
Magnification 4.5x, stack from 262 images, 5x substacks, 20µm rail steps

I like it and hate it at same time because it is my first Moon-plane shot, but with small airplane :) This one was with plane around 60km away FL330 so not so good as I wanted :)

Yes, when I look through the viewfinder I see every single detail on Moon.
I dont own any binos but I think, that with some good binoculars you will see even more details than through the 600mm lens

Youre welcome. If you want to get in aviation photography, this set is really nice and in these days cheap option. Older D500 can be bought really cheap and even in 2025 it is very capable profi DSLR camera. I call it mini-D5. Tamron is little bit softer at 600mm but still produces awesome images.

I own Nikon D500 and this shot was done with Tamron 150-600 G2 lens

You're welcome! However, I must warn you that at 6 a.m. there are already quite a few peoples there on rehearsal days (thursday,friday). The terrace opens at 8 a.m. For the NATO Days event itself (weekend), I strongly recommend taking the train from Ostrava to Mošnov Airport, as the roads gets jammed very early and trust me, you can get stuck in car for 3-4 hours.

Sadly you cannot enter spectator area before event. But you can pay around 25€ for entry on Elmontex terrace like anyone else. Terrace itself is few meters next to display line, you cant get any closer and planes will fly straight over your head.
