I was shooting at Spruce Knob (Bortle 2 site) in July. I wanted to see what the worse the X-T3 could do, so with the XF18-55mm lens at 18mm, f2.8 and 13 seconds, I cranked the ISO all the way up to 25600. The results were surprisingly good. Yes, there is noticeable noise, but still not nearly as bad as I was expecting.

Then set all my settings back to recommended without bumping the focus. Hope this makes sense / helps. And thank you very much for the kind words

Viltrox makes great lenses. You can shoot some lovely astrophotography with a decent wide lens. And since we need manual focus anyway, those lenses are great. My only concern would be that they don't have anything super wide, and since fuji is aps-c, sub 20mm lenses can be useful. So the only viltrox lens I would buy would for astro would be the 20mm 1.8.

Alright. The best lens I had for the job was the 35mm f1.4 wide open at 3200 about 1sec the first time. Compared to the second time where I messed around with all of that stuff. First attempt was good. If my white balance was right it'd have been better. The Aurora moves more than stars too.

Nice video and good information! I was hoping you were going to tackle also the ISO invariance of the sensor. Basically, the internet says that the sensor is ISO invariant starting with ISO800, which means you can actually shoot at ISO800 and push in post procesing and have a similar amount of noise as if using that ISO in camera but with better dynamic range.
@ThomasBusbyPhotography
@ThomasBusbyPhotography 3 жыл бұрын
I actually did a ton of practice and research on that. But my results did not aline with it being as invariant as the internet says. Maybe the xt2/3 sensors are more so. I also didn't find any change in DR over ISO 800 and a drop in DR under 800 because of Fujis imported DR ISO options. I need to do more testing on this but to me it didn't quite seem as clear cut as most articles I have read would make it seem.

​@@ThomasBusbyPhotography I agree with much of what you say but not with your ISO noise test. Why are you decreasing the amount of light hitting the sensor as you increase the ISO? That doesn't happen when shooting the Milky Way; when shooting the Milky Way, the amount of light from the source doesn't change. By deceasing the amount of light (as you did) for every increase in ISO, you are changing the amount of light gathered by the sensor thus creating more noise. I did my own test using the 16mm @ f/2.0, 15 sec. and then taking a series of 4 images from ISO 800 to ISO 6400. Then in Light Room, I adjusted the exposures to match the ISO 6400 shot ( ie I pushed the ISO 800 exposure +3, ISO 1600 exposure +2 and the ISO 3200 exposure +1) and then evaluated the noise. I virtually didn't see and difference in noise levels up to ISO 3200... Personally I'd rather shoot at lower ISO's and then increase exposure in LR as needed than shoot at higher ISO's and risk baking in blown out stars and colours. I'm not an expert, but this is my logic and what I found.
@ThomasBusbyPhotography
@ThomasBusbyPhotography 3 жыл бұрын
I had to change the light in the room because of how signal to noise ratio works. But the end result of my test agrees with you. I didn't say shoot higher ISO, I just showed the ISO results. Which agrees with what you say that lower is better. And if you are trying to shoot astro with say a f/4 lens, ISO 1600 might be far to dark and ISO 3200 or 6400 etc might be required.

With the new , series Fujis boasting 40mp sensors what is the implication for these incredibly helpful charts?

It means if you’re very picky you’ll want to use an ever faster shutter speed the higher you’re MP count. And exact amount I haven’t worked out, but from a guess you would work it out using the %percentage difference in MP to what %percentage the shutter speed should change on my charts…if that makes sense

Wow! so grateful for all you share, do you have a patreon account for contributions to your content?new to manual photography i saved 5 yrs & just bought xt5 + the beautiful 50-140 lens as i shoot sports a lot. I am trying it for night sky images. so many options on the camera to test. i an finding iso 2500 & 1/2000 shutter at f2.8 gives me clear moon & jupiter/moons shots. But keen to try long exposure milky way shots. i only have the one lens at the moment. I have a tripod but its a but too unstable for me to hold shutter on bulb. is there a remote for bulb mode with this camera?! so excited to read all your website info. Thank you again, Sarah

Thank you very kindly for nice words, if you set your shutter speed to T you will be able to dial in a great long exposure for while on a tripod, and just set your self timer to 2 or 10secs so your hands are well clear and any shake has stopped. I don’t have a patreon but you can show support through KZfaq by clicking the super thanks button (it looks like a heart with a $ symbol inside it) If you have any other questions please sing out

@@ThomasBusbyPhotography Thank you so much, I will try it out tonight if the skies clear. I have to say fujifilm seems a very forgiving camera system. Does its best to produce an image for me! I save my beginner efforts at @xt5_studio. Thank you once again & I will certainly contribute towards your content making. How lucky are we that you share your knowledge.

Haha cheers mate, I get pretty excited and passionate about it all and try not to make the video drag, I was just thinking afterwards that I did smash all that out VERY quickly. So will make more of a effort to get it out slower next time.

So useful, yet,try to think you are speaking to the world and not to your palls in the same neighborhood... so vocalize more and slow down a drop, so we can understand your pills of wisdom. We need them so it's sad to miss them due to fast pronounciation. Great stuff though! Thanks a lot

Yeah this videos pretty old now and I was really struggling to remember everything and get it out, you’ll find my newer content is far more coherent, for all. Appreciate the feedback all the same, though, and hope it helped

Your presentation style is far too rushed - breathe man and breathe more often! A lot of information passed very quickly but the video is none the less very informative. Here's something to considier, as a Fuji user does the film simulation matter for astrophotography? I think that it does. Standard seems to have more suppressed shadows than say Pro Neg Standard. If true that could effect the exposure time.

I only ever shoot my Astro in RAW which the film simulations have no effect
