Schiphol Nights

Goedendag lieve mensen

Here’s a compilation of the best night photos I took at Schiphol last winter. These photos were taken over two separate spotting sessions.

I am too lazy to come up with creative captions for each photo so I will just provide the exposure settings.

Equipment

Nikon Z6 + FTZ feat. broken IBIS
Nikon AF-S 80-400 f/4.5-5.6G ED
Nikon AF-S 50 f/1.8G

(Dis)honourable mention:

Cheap no brand tripod I got at a sketchy photography store in China

Sometimes it likes to try and fall apart but that’s ok

Atis mid

SAS saving the day though

Tripod doing all of the heavy lifting here lol

If you have any spots with a ton of light (e.g on the ramp) an old crop sensor should be viable with good technique
