You are right about using the right equipment and location hahaha... The guy is in Norway. Do read up his post and see what equipment he is using to take.

Btw, he did used stacking (multiple shots and combine later) method which is something like HDR imaging...

The price is steep, but the result is really good. I think is worth every penny.

I mean the PRICE:grin For fast focus, you should try it with some SSM G lenses. :cheer:
However, I find there are too many controls at the back that easily change settings by accident. Perhaps I should find a cover for the entire back, top and front of the camera and use it with the "professional" P setting.;) Otherwise, it is one hell of a tool.
