DRESDEN NIGHTS
2 years ago
NOW NEW THE DIRECTORS CUT -> vimeo.com/17689319
This is a special low-light movie about the city dresden.
In the first week in January 2010 i stayed overnight in Dresden (Germany). Virgin snow was falling. It was too cold - minus 9 degree - a real cold winter night.
I took my Canon 7D with a 24-70 Sigma f2.8 lens and went to the historic city of Dresden.
This is a HD test-footage with night shots under extreme low-light.
The raw material is 1280x720 pix in 50fps which was down-sampled to 25fps - no FX and digital filter used.
The music title "Opera 27 Moonlight (extend)" comes from KORA3000. Licensing over productiontrax.com.

The footage looks smooth but I think you need a quicker lens.
I wonder if the slowmotion 1280 x 720 50 FPS with a shutter speed of 100th cost you a Full Stop.
On full screen with my IMAC 24 the buildings are great but the black sky is grainy and a bit noisey.
the noisy Sky is my boo boo - i took 3200 ISO setting, and next time i must take a F1.4 or F1.2 lens with max 1600 ISO.
Sky still noisy but not blocky.
This time I can clearly see the starlight definiton of car headlamps and the buildings - all very good.
Recently I went to 2000 ISO and it was also too noisy .... sometimes you just need more LIGHT or at least SOME Light or the 1.4 !
The expense never stops with DSLR photography!
P> BLOOM on his 7d DVD Tutorial suggest that 1600 ISO is as far as we should go. I am sure he is right! I am delighted with the photographic potential of the 7d.
Good to see Dresden looking so very beautiful.
