Here, I take different shots using my Canon 60D with the open shutter/ long exposure techique. I try different aperture settings at this time of night (21:00 – 21:30). My first shoot is at a place called Arthers Seat on the Mornington Peninsula. My second shoot was from a overpass walkway looking down on a freeway a few clicks from my first shoot. I hope this video helps some Canon 60D owners.

Hi there, do you know “photo SFX art” (just do a Google search for it…)? On their website you will find a good free video explaining the way to make impressive pictures. It made it possible for Matt to make pictures which have that jaw-dropping-effect after you look at them. I hope it helps you as well…
That was so helpful, thanks a million….. J (Ireland)
i set it m mode… how did you get to that menu? i pressed the menu button after switching to m mode but after looking through all the tabs i didnt see the menu that you had up in the video
very helpful
Get Magic Lantern 2.3 it’s like steroids for your 60D and other Canon cameras. It has a built in intervalometer and automatic HDR bracketing unlimited exposures usually 3-7 on auto. Enjoy! Nice vid I
No worries, glad it helped clear things up.
@sta4ful The buity with a remote timer is that when you press the button on the camera the photo can blur Rome the movement. Remote ensures no camera shake. I am pretty sure to go beyond 30sec open shutter a remote cable is needed.
@joby128 Pleasure. Glad I can help
@demoiselley No probs
Thank you for this! =)
This video made things clear for me, thankyou so so much. 🙂
Switch the mode dial to ‘B’ (bulb) and the shutter stays open for as long as you press down on the shutter release. Too much of this and your finger will ache, but its a nice feature.
good job tnxx
Only with a remote timer. 30sec is max without a remote timer.
Look on eBay and you’ll find a cheap one that is just as good. I got one from eBay for around $15 AUD
I am glad it helped.
No probs!
Cheers!
My pleasure!
You can, but you need a timer remote. I got one from eBay for like $10. I have a video on that too!
I’m glad it helped.
Not sure. I have never used one of those cameras before. Have a look in the owner manual. Best of luck!
Thanks a heaps for this. Totally worth it. 😀
Thank you for making this!
If you want to know any more things, let me know and I will try and make another one that will help you.
