G10 at Night
Part 2 of 4 in A Week With the Powershot G10
I took the G10 out last night to see how it performed after dark, mostly just because.
Other than cropping and cloning out some light sources there was very little done to this image, in terms of noise reduction. It’s a 15 second exposure at f/8 ISO 80.
On the other hand, this similarly exposed image, was extensively processed and processed for noisedid. While noise wasn’t significant in the clouds in the unprocessed image, after tweaking the sky colors to suit, the little noise that was there was heavily multiplied.
One thing that I found a bit disappointing was the lack of longer exposures longer than 15 seconds or a bulb mode. Not that it would have been really necessary for what I was doing last night, but it does limit the utility in at night.
One thing I didn’t mention yesterday is that there is a 2.5mm terminal for a cable release, and the cable releases from the Canon Rebel SLRs will work with the G10.
