Hey fellow spotters! I've been trying to up my game with night photography at airports like LAX and JFK, but I'm hitting a few snags. Currently using a Sony A7IV with a 70-200mm f/2.8 lens. While the low light performance is decent, I'm struggling with noise and focusing issues.
What's everyone using for night shots? Would switching to a prime lens like the 85mm f/1.4 make a big difference? Also, any tips on camera settings you swear by? I've been experimenting with ISO 3200 and shutter speeds around 1/200s, but results vary.
For post-processing, I'm using Lightroom to reduce noise, but sometimes it feels like I lose too much detail. How do you balance clarity and noise reduction? Looking forward to your insights and maybe seeing some of your shots for inspiration!
