What’s New, True and Fun in Night Photography Gear
The world keeps moving faster and faster, including the evolution of camera gear and what it can do at night. What wasn’t possible even 10 years ago has become commonplace today, and the challenges of yesterday are already being solved today. To get you up to speed, Michael Hollender will cover the latest technology advances in mirrorless cameras and lenses as well as essential tools that keep you powered up and clicking long through the night.
Michael will share the evolution of the contents of his camera bag and the must-have items for night photography. He will also share many of the new, trending and creative additions that have made his night life more productive in the field—from tripod considerations to filters that can help bring out the glow in your stars or help lessen the light pollution in your images.
This session will help you check off those must-pack items to help ensure you are not left fumbling around in the dark.
