Hi all -
Looks like we might be getting a thunderstorm overnight here in Dubai. They're very rare here, so I want to make the most of it.
I've shot lightning before with Canon so know what I'm doing, but I'm a bit worried about missing opportunities due to the dark shot that the IQ will insist on.
Is there anyway to cancel a long exposure shot on the back? If I leave the shutter open for 30 seconds and don't capture a strike, I want to be able to discard the shot without having to wait for another 30 seconds, during which I might miss a strike. Make sense?
Kind regards,
Gerald.
/edit - should have said, camera/lens will be either Max and a Rodie, or FPS and Rodie or Canon TSE, so it's just the back I need to over-ride.
