I focused the camera to infinity and had mounted in the shoe a lightning detector built by a friend of mine. It has a 2 micro-second response time. You tune it for the ambient lighting conditions and once it detects a change in light intensity, it triggers the shutter.

If you click on the thumbnail, it displays the image full-size. The embedded image stays the size that it displays as in the message. Good to know.

Here is a few shots of mine while out and about roaming the hills This 1 is up in the Lake District with Englands highest peak on the right covered in cloud This is Ingleborough,the second highest peak in the Yorkshire Dales National park.One of the peaks of the 3 peak challenge which is 24.5 miles to be done in under 12 hours. These 2,both the same picture only one has a clour shift effect added are of another of the peaks in the 3 peak challenge called Pen-y-Ghent This one is of a stone monument built to comemorate the the defeat of Napoleon, managed to capture the sun in just the right place to give a halo effect. And this last 1 is of my home town,Hudderfield taken yesterday in the snow with Emly Moor T.V mast in the distance,the tallest free standing structure in the U.K. little_old_man, Nisty*, Trasheur123 and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
