With it, you can see a long exposure come to life as it happens. I wanted to add a little magic when photographing the hazy Petronas Twin Towers earlier tonight.<\/p>\n<p>In Live Time Mode, I rotated the camera slowly while hand-holding it and monitored the result on the LCD screen. The car lights, street lights, traffic lights and building lights turned into circular streaks.<\/p>\n<p>When I see the light trails and exposure becoming optimum, I clicked the shutter again to stop the exposure. Previously and with other cameras, B or Bulb Mode is a hit-and-miss or trial-and-error affair.<\/p>\n<p>Live Time reminds me of the time when I was a kid developing prints in the darkroom and seeing the pictures come to life in the chemical trays. Sheer magic!<\/p>\n<p>Olympus OM-D, ISO 200, f11, 8 secs.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/live_time_mode.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7139\" title=\"Live Time\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/live_time_mode.jpg\" alt=\"Live Time\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/live_time_mode.jpg 1080w, http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/live_time_mode-113x113.jpg 113w, http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/live_time_mode-169x169.jpg 169w, http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/live_time_mode-450x450.jpg 450w, http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/live_time_mode-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the coolest features in the Olympus OM-D EM-5 camera is its Live Time Mode&#8230;. <a href=\"http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/live-time\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563,519,9,12],"tags":[1579,478,813,1577,1580,622,580,114,511,303,521,1578],"class_list":["post-7138","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-instagram","category-omd","category-photography","category-tech","tag-bulb-mode","tag-haze","tag-landmark","tag-light-trails","tag-live-time-mode","tag-long-exposure","tag-night","tag-olympus","tag-om-d","tag-petronas-twin-towers","tag-slow-exposure","tag-time-exposure"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7138","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7138"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7138\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7150,"href":"http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7138\/revisions\/7150"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7138"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7138"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/tvsmith.net.my\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7138"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
