You should be able to pull some decent shots out of Pirates and Haunted Mansion also. You had some great ones from out in DL.

I can't shoot the HM here to save my life

 

[Hockeyman55]

I know what ya mean I have to crank my ISO so high just to get anything but them I end up with a lot of noise

HM is "impossible", especially with my current equipment. HMH is a lot easier because of elevated light levels in a lot of scenes.

Peter Pan's flight is the hardest to photograph by far though.

I haven't even dared attempt any shots on Pan yet, Id have to crank my ISO so high it would look like it was snowing inside the ride. Ill be there Friday, maybe ill give it a try just for the heck of it.

Yea, I gave it a shot for craps and giggles a few weeks ago and everything came out laughably bad.

That is the reason I haven't even bothered. Once i get to around 1600 ISO I know the shots are going to be winter wonderlandy and I hate that.

Yeah but too much and the picture gets real creamy and looses its sharpness, yeah I can remove the noise but its a balancing act between the noise and sharpness. . Nikons and Canons handle the noise better than the Sony from all the photos and reviews I have seen. You guys should be able to pull off higher ISO better than I.

Did you get those videos I sent you on LR4?

 

[Hockeyman55]

No i never did. I actually emptied my inbox before I checked them out.

All my darkride shots are shot at 1600iso btw.

 

[Hockeyman55]

Any noise reduction tool used?

 

[Hatetofly]

No, all I did was raise the sharpness a very very very small amount and tweak the color and shadow levels.

 

[Hockeyman55]

Your sensor handles the higher ISO better than mine for sure.

So we had Haunted Mansion stop on us mid ride while on the attic area and think I got some good shots in. I almost panicked with joy that it did that and snapped about 30 shots of the one scene
