Was taking a picture of the sunrise for a short, tell me what you think.

Too dark? Not enough contrast?

Re: Sunrise Grab

So can you or cant you shoot the sun? I love your sunrise but after some pretty heavy warnings here on the forum I dont dare let the sun enter frame.
 
Re: Sunrise Grab

its pretty safe at sunset like that when it mostly concealed, but i wouldnt do it at high noon for the life of me. just like i wouldnt look at it with my own eyes.. , anyway thats a ROCKIN! SKY! .. the contrast is sortof off, would be nice if the ground was silhouetted black, or brighter, but as it is its in that grey muck area.. but somtimes theres not much you can do, and the grab is awsome anyway. if you raise the blacks in a levels adjustment, or up the contrast, you should be able to silhoutete the ground out anyway. :)
 
Re: Sunrise Grab

From what I've read. The sun was harmful to older camcorders (like VHS). But it does not harm newer ones. I've done many sun shots with my DVX and I havn't had any problems. It's also recommended to get a UV filter for extra protection. This filter also protects anything from touching the master lens on the camera.
 
Re: Sunrise Grab

I used the uv filter as well, I wouldn't dare shoot the sun anytime past sunrise or before sunset. Just not worth it, I saved up so much to buy this camera.

The camera reccomended I use the nd filter at 1/8th I wonder if it would of been better off.
