Anyone try long exposures on another camera at night? (Dslr to drone)

[Mike4884]

So i took my trusty ole' Nikon p-900 out set it up on a tripod I wanted to try to get some pretty cool long exposure shots on my mavic 2 Zoom....what i did was set 15 sec exposure on nikon snapped pic then fly......on my zoom i have some firehouse strobes, had them set to fast blink and sometimes had aux lights on bottom of drone for some pics.... anyway this is what I came up with not too bad for my first time. I think it looks pretty cool have any of you guys tried this? I have to figure out a way to get it to hover in a perfect circle kind of like a point of interest but when it's dark you can't really track anything any ideas?

Hey, pretty darn neat outcomes. I particularly like the columns. I also like Number 7.

Nice ones.
My son is into photography and he wants me to fly round a church spire so he can take a long exposure and make it look like the church has a halo.

I've had a couple and the Mavic 2 Pro mount but just picked up the gels. I'm going to try to get some experience doing things like this. It is so freaking cool.

That is epic! Well I could just put my arc 2's on steady and it would be brighter than the lume cubes! there's so many cool options to try. I was initially going to get the lume Cubes but they are substantially heavier than strobes. I also have all three strobes on my mavic 2 and can still keep them mounted at all times and fold the drone whenever. So it worked out......my buddy has a pair of lume's, so we tried mine and his, put mine on steady brightness and it pretty much washed his out. Maybe his wasn't turned up all the way) was surprised I do have three of them mounted.... anyway I want to try a few pics with the landing lights also Incorporated
