That's terrible I hope Mrs. Porky is up and around again quickly

Looking forward to seeing all the picks when you get back to the UK!

Sorry to hear about Mrs. P.

 

[Clampit]

Thanks guys about Mrs P she's ok but limping around. Ankle very swollen at the mo, just bought her an ankle sock to support it. Anyway enough about her, only playing....

Going out flying again tonight, more sunset shots love flying now at dusk/nightime

I was thinking the same thing

 

[750r]

Lol, yep you know me to well after her live insurance money

It was a bit like this

I was thinking just for some more phantom time

 

[Clampit]

Yeah then I can go & buy a P3 with millions of batteries

I'll try the push a bit harder tonight pane of glass at the bottom of the stairs, you never know

I'm only playing love her to bits

 

[Clampit]

It's 5.25pm here now, sun starts to set about 6ish so I'm gonna get piglet ready

I don't think the locals have seen a phantom before, I've had so much interest when flying even had a snotty little kid, about 5 years of age ask if he could have a go, told him to f##ck off

But all the local people love it which is good news, no bad press as yet

 

[dirkclod]

no bad press as yet

Ya ain't left yet

 

[Clampit]

Ya ain't left yet

Lol, yep there's still time

Oh well going down to the beach now for the sunset flying catch you guys later.

Loved flying at dusk/night time, got some great pics as dusk but my night shots are poo. Need to adjust the iOS & exposure me thinks for my next night flight any tips? Done a quick search but could only find info on the P2V+

Since taking the filter kit off the pictures look so much better now, don't have to worry about the halo effect, but need to rebalance the gimbal.

Mrs p ankle is a little better today but think she's needs to still take it easy

Hey dirk,

Any pointers on what settings to use for night shots? Took my filter off & rebalanced the gimbal yesterday, pictures are sooo much better now but the night shots are very dark

No flying tonight out with our friends for a curry, should be good fun

There's another guy staying in the hotel that has a P2 with a gopro, had a good old chat with him but he's foreign so it's hard to communicate......but it was good

Mike, you have defo got to take that filter off the camera buddy, trust me

 

[dirkclod]

He's foreign

No I don't Porky . I have never had any luck taking pictures at night as I don't really have anything lite up here at nite .

Oh well thanks for letting me know, I'll play around with the camera settings when it gets dark tomorrow & see if I can improve it

Going to change the ISO to 400 then 800 to see if that improves anything then adjust the exposure settings, I'll play around with it tomorrow night
