TPF Noob!
Hey guys,
the title says it all.
I just got a Canon Rebel Ti and have been experimenting with it for a bit, got some filters, etc.
I always wanted to try those long exposures where you see trails of light left by passing cars.
I got a not-so-good mini-tripod and a remote switch. Still looking for a nice bigger tripod that I can acutally put to use, but all that aside, Im still at loss as to how to determine the correct aperture.
Will I need a light meter? (sadly this camera isnt equipped with one)
The only way I can set camera to 'bulb' is to go fully manually where it wont autosearch for a proper aperture for me so Im stuck.
Do you have any tip, tricks or info for me?
Thanks guys!
Dimitry
