Canon 60D Open Shutter / Long Exposure

08 Feb

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…

    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

    @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.

    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.

    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

    You can, but you need a timer remote. I got one from eBay for like $10. I have a video on that too!

    Not sure. I have never used one of those cameras before. Have a look in the owner manual. Best of luck!
