Some can push an ISO way up and see very little noise.
That’s right, and it’s good, isn’t it? Mine I can’t raise above 800. Haha.
Yerevan is quite well lit. Havana would seem like a nocturnal cemetery to you, without will-o’-the-wisps.
I really like your night photos.
I know him, he is me! Anything above 400 and the noise becomes insane. I have a new Soviet lens arriving in a few days by the way, same one that was used on Dune 2. Going to upgrade the camera soon, I REALLY want a cinema one. Maybe FX3 or Blackmagic pyxis.
That's how it is in the residential spaces. Just total darkness. Inside the courtyards beyond the main roads where shop lights and street lights remain.
I've noticed the cold is hitting my A6000 though. It starts messing up a bit when I try to take images outdoors at night.
🙂😀 wow... I hope to see it around here when it arrives... by the way, do you have any case or display cabinet to protect your lenses from humidity?
Humidity in Armenia is basically nonexistent for much of the year. I don't think it's much to be worried about. Though it is something I had to be concerned about when I was in Georgia. My Canon AE-1 has fungus in the viewfinder (came with it), which can easily just be removed and cleaned with the right tools. Lenses are fine, I haven't noticed anything like that. I did notice that in Georgia it grew a bit more.
I'm not too worried about lenses as well since most I collect these days are vintage and cheap. They're easier to take apart and maintain, or simply just replace if they really get bad.
