Julie and I have been trying to catch “still” shots of some of the lightning. Does anyone have any suggestions on how we might be able to? We’ve tried both cell phone, but they NEVER take a shot when you push the button. I guess we just aren’t quick enough on the Nikon.
I’m not going to claim to be a photography expert, but with both your smartphone and Nikon see what it has for a burst mode. (With an iPhone it bursts as long as you hold down the button.) All cameras have lag and predicting when the next bolt is going to come down is near impossible…although last night they were coming down so frequently it might have been possible. 🙂
I actually tried the burst stuff with my iPhone last night…and it will only show as one photo until you choose “Select” toward the bottom right when viewing the one photo they show.
