Roommate took some shots at 1am

[Philipangoo]

the last shot reminds me of Tron. Looks great, I love that the lip spoiler and tails are black.

[Danny]

Any ideas on how to reduce the graininess?

Here's the specs on the shot:

iso 100, shoting in raw ,3 min exposure,F5, neutral color setting, olympus 14-42mm lens

sick i like the last one.

Danny is my backup while trolling for noobies in OT while you're having your mini break from me. I really don't know what you see in the pool boy. Is your monthly allowance and line of credit at the local fashion houses not enough anymore? Do I no longer sexually satisfy you?

:rofl: I can't keep up with that. When I get a new E30 then we'll talk but for now we are on a break umkay?

Sweet shots.

+1 for Cuban Dan buying another E30 so he and the Diver Of Smoo can make more home movies featuring manatees and mayo. Red Tube misses you guys.

[daniel]

does he have one of those new olympus ep-1 pen cameras? a camera with a tiny sensor like that is going to have a bit more grain.

Here's the specs on the shot:

turn on long exposure noise reduction in the menu.

and get neat image or noise ninja on your computer

I'm not a fan of in-camera noise reduction, but to each his own. I couldn't stand doubling the time it took between photos...noise ninja gets my vote, it's available as a standalone program or as a plug-in for Photoshop. Just make sure he downloads the correct profile.

Have you tried Neat Image before? It's the program I use and I was wondering if you think noise ninja is better?

pic #3 in high res, pls . . .

noise ninja is the way to go. also those are not 5 minute exposures, probably closer to 3. star trails get pretty long at the 5 minute mark.
