Shuttle launches from Orlando
Tendai asked me about camera settings for shooting space shuttle launches. Rather than write them down, I looked through my photos and posted the ones I’ve taken, along with the EXIF data (where available) giving the settings I used.
Space shuttle launch as seen from Orlando - 1/160 sec @ f/8, ISO 100, 300 mm, Cropped 1936 x 1296, Nikon D80
I took a new set of pictures yesterday. I’m really pleased to be able to see the Solid Rocket Booster sequence from my front yard. (We’re over 50 miles from the launch site). I used my new Nikon 70 – 300, F4.5 – 5.6, IS lens and mounted the camera on a tripod on my driveway. I really like the lens.
My gallery of shuttle pictures is here.
