What is the longest exposure it will do? Though if you can't stop the
lens down it might not be any use but worth a play to see what images
you get so you know the settings for next time.

Shame in a way because the CC was almost continuous....


I was hoping that the storms might make it this far north in the early
hours but nope. It's just grey, overcast and occasional light drizzle.

Maximum exposure is 8 seconds available from 2.8 upto f8. So maybe in just
repeating 8 second exposures I may get lucky ...

After a gloomy start its reasonably sunny and warm here in Chigwell....
