Thanks for posting! I might try to get out.
Anyone have quick tips for eclipse exposure? I'm guessing that like sunsets, auto is actually pretty decent for this kind of thing...

Pouring with rain and forecast for most of the night, so I doubt I will be out there.
Be too busy ZZZ'ing it, work tomorrow. |

Idea for proper eclipse exposure: Slowwwwlly reattached the lens cap and then slowwwlly remove. Problem solved!
Yes I was dropped as a child.

I took some test shots last night, but they came out very grainy with speckles. Why is that? |

maybe the iso is too high or you are using digital zoom! |

I sure hope I will be able to get some shots of the eclipse but it's awfully foggy and overcast here. Not sure if I'll even be able to see it :-( |

Since there's already an existing thread on this topic, I'm locking this one to consolidate the discussion.
