Light Painting software

WYISWYG – bullshit. It’s not working for me. This programm lightpaintlive is just not working for me. I tried it with my webcam, i tried it with a Canon 7d connected as a webcam, and still can’t get a solid light line with it. The idea is great, but…. You can see some of my attempts:

I think there is some problem with fps, it just can get the light normally. I tried different settings, but still nothing…

Those two are the only result 🙂

Sound and light experiment

New techonlogies bring new ideas. Found this great device on eBay – Digital Multi-Function (Lightning Sound Laser HSS) Trigger. Some techical info below:

This is a digital multi-function camera/flash trigger device that can responds to lightning, sound, laser (or any light source shining on its sensor), and external trigger event such as a switch, X-sync signal from camera etc. It also has the capability to sychronize a non-HSS (non high speed sync) flash with high speed sync signal up to 1/4000 .

Highly configurable with 32 levels of sensitivity and delay of 0 to 999.999 seconds for each individual mode (lightning, sound, laser/light, external)

High sensitivity, though it is adjustable from 1 to 32 levels of sensitivity, when sensitivity is set to maximum, it can detect a sigarette lighter two meters (6 ft) away in a dark room. For sound detection, at max level, it can detect a button (US penny sized) dropping on floor.

Simulated second curtain flash trigger with External mode. This is convenient for many Canon users where it is very difficult to do off camera second curtain flash trigger.
