Thanks Jerry , I like the sound of NR in post I will definitely look into that.
on the subject of the long exposures it is always like this , around 4’ with NR on and a more normal 45” with it off.
The 2nd dilemma you ask about is I tried using T mode and it just takes the picture, as in ‘click’
job done, so if the exposure is set to 1.5 minutes it just goes click, no countdown.
I have shutter set to Manual, Manuel aperture, iso 200 and shutter set to ‘T’.
Any ideas ?
