I shoot the aurora at 24fps instead of 30 or 60. 1/24 of a second comparted to 1/60 a second gives you brighter auroras and you can use a lower ISO. I still believe the Sony A7S3 is tops. As you stated many other cameras can do a good job as well. Amazing what our cell phones can do for still images at night. I did test the Sony A1 for video and it surprised me. A7S3 ( still the King)

On one of my other KZread channels that deals with low light scenarios, we always shoot at 24fps and 1/48, but for most social media sites, 30p is treated better during compression, so as a studio policy, I have always tried to stick with that. I have not had the pleasure of the testing out the A1, so that's pretty cool that you did. Great info as well, thanks!

What you think you know vs what other people know 🤯. Nice video

I think I finally understand how ISO works. Thanks

Glad it helped!

It would be great to see a comparison with the R6 mkII for video.

@@maxru5591 but it must be at least as good as the R6 mk 1, right? I have the R6 mk 1 and it does pretty well also with film at night.

@@MartinFransson i think its much better with more red sensitivity I shoot at 12,800 with no noise in the next days i hope to post a timelapse in kitt peak

why did you not use a 1,8 ora fast lens? using a 2,8 its a huge mistake

Several of the shots featured in this video were shot at f1.4 and are marked accordingly. It would have been cool to shoot the timelapses with a wider aperture, but I'm still working on getting a wide angle lens that opens up to that width. Someday soon hopefully.
