Photos at dusk

[pcalvin]

How slow of a shutter speed can I use at dusk with a Phantom 4 PRO for still images? I want to avoid as much noise as possible and shoot at lower ISOs. I am shooting for architects.

Thanks.

I shoot a lot of sunsets. You can get pretty slow if the wind is not crazy. I think 1/80 or 1/40 hasnt been an issue. I also really like to shoot in AEB for sunset as well.

In fairly still conditions, 1/4 to 1 second is achievable with good results.

The individual images that this panorama is composed of were 1/2 sec @ f5.6

Thanks for the replies! I am going back to shoot more stills at dusk tonight. I'll run through the slow speeds and see what works best.

As a follow up: The dusk shots were successful. I had exposures as long as 1 second @ f/5.6 that were sharp, shooting at 100 and 200 ISO. Most were in the 1/4 - 1/6 range. Thanks for the advice.

HAHA... I'll post an image when I am finishing processing the whole job. I am editing the video now.

Here is one: 100 ISO, 1/4 @ f/3.5
