The bike pic will look a lot brighter when you double the ISO like that. It’s still bloody impressive, just not as impressive as it first looks from those pics.
I took a lot of photos with different settings just to found a couple decent ones , its very difficult to take night photos without tripod.
As I said before it’s an APEX 5T6 and you can find a lot of beam shots for this flashlight everywhere - I am interesting to show you my patent not the flashlight and you can do it for any flashlight in the market .
Maybe I will do a better job with my video
hi again jlogres
if the info is correct in the exif files of your pics, your camera has a “M” (manual) mode
for good comparisons, i recommend you to set it to the same values for all pics (in this case f2.8, 1 sec) and i suppose you can manually set the iso, so set it E.g. to 160 (the lower, the less noise you will have) it´s better to adjust the exposure with the shutter speed for these kind of pictures, in fact it will be a better shot with a closer diaphragm, some like f8 or so, but you need to raise the shutter speed to 8s, to compensate)
so, for future pictures, my recommendation is to leave the camera steady over something (like your car for example), adjust it in manual to a correct exposure, and release the shutter using either the timer, or the remote control included with it (if you didn’t loose it )
Thanks totilde,
As you already understand I am not a camera expert but thanks for all the information , I will try them next time.
I am still waiting for a better weather (very cold ) to go for a ride with dark conditions and make a video.
I am better with video camera
You didn’t see my video Daylighter ?
I am changing modes all time - modes are on driver not on switch so with any switch you don’t loose anything from the original flashlight.
Except maybe from some flashlights how have electronic switch and you have to hold it for some seconds to activate some modes , usually strobe.
But in this case usually the switch is on head lamp (like king style or terminator) so you don’t need a second switch to the cable.
