Went to Cathedral Caverns with friends today. I really appreciated the high ISO performance of my EOS M6. Didn’t have to carry a particularly fast lens and could travel light with just its 15-45mm lens. A bit grainy but I could shoot handheld without adding light. No way my old T5i would have handled this well.
I don’t think I’ll ever get enough of shooting old warbirds. Commemorative Air Force was in town this weekend. I love these old birds.
It was ballet time again a few weeks ago. I worked Huntsville Ballet’s Cinderella and had fun with my new EOS M6 during rehearsals when I had time to shoot.
I’ve never been happy with my shots of a full moon. I’ve gotten good results with non-full moons but nothing I’ve liked with a full moon. Last night I decided to try to follow Tony Northrup’s instructions to see what I got.
I was shooting my Canon M6 on manual. ISO 100, 1/60 second f/8.0 with a Tokina 400mm lens, tripod mounted shutter fired by remote. Manual focus.
I stacked seven images using Registax and Tony’s wavelet presets. My first attempt at stacking the results didn’t come out like I wanted. Continue reading “Shooting a full moon last night”
Huntsville Ballet held an Art of Dance session at Lowe Mill on Saturday, March 17th. Some dances from various shows, a free dance lesson for the kids there and then a chance to sketch the dancers for local artists. Of course I was there shooting pictures.
So far I’m pretty impressed with the high ISO performance on my EOS M6. Makes me not worry too much about auto ISO.
I took these yesterday at Anheuser-Busch in St Louis. The high ISO shots are pretty usable without any noise clean up. Better with it but usable without it.
