You could google for "dark sky maps" to find out where there might be a place with the least amount of light pollution near you. On 2/28/2022 3:32 AM, Toine wrote: Ok thanks, so no stacking. Never managed to capture the milky way due to (probably) light pollution. Should give it another try.

I'd probably do it that way myself if I were a *working* photographer who regularly gets shit published in the NY Times and car magazines. 8^) I carry spare cards, but on a dual card camera Like the K-1, that slot in the battery grip that holds a spare card really ought to be two slots with

Yeah. I'm not complaining about the dual slots. I'm not even complaining about how kludgy it is to make it switch to the preferred card. I'm just mad I couldn't find out how to do what I wanted to do - force it to switch switch from filling Card #2 first to filling Card #1 first - by

I have my K-1 set to record all images on both cards. I rarely fill a 64 gig card, but if I do, I just mount a second pair. Having a backup at all times is reassuring. Paul > On Feb 28, 2022, at 9:13 AM, Stan Halpin wrote: > > On my recent trip, Day 1, I pulled out card 1, tried to

On my recent trip, Day 1, I pulled out card 1, tried to download the day’s images. Nada. Zip. Zero. WTF! Card back into camera, fiddled, eventually saw that everything was being recorded to card 2. I found that eventually, once card 2 filled up, new images then started recording onto card 1.

I haven't find another way either as the one described by Larry. However, two card slots is so useful. So often I praised this outside in the field when I forgot to put my main card in and left it in the card reader. Henk Op ma 28 feb. 2022 om 07:37 schreef Larry Colen : > > > > On Feb 27,
