How should I film a tornado at night?

Question

Should I use night shot? If I use night shot, the picture will be green so the video won't show what's really happening but if I don't use it, it would be black so I wouldn't be able to see the tornado on tape. What should I do?

Answer 1

You shouldn't.

...

And you're not that bright if you think "night shot" is somehow going to illuminate a tornado 4-5 miles away. It isnt heat-sensitive. It has a dinky infrared light that only illuminates things that are right in front of it (an invisible flashlight). You'll be miles away from a tornado, and if theres no light, there's no image. The sun has to be out.

Answer 2

night mode

and under cover

Answer 3

turn off all the lights then use night shot its your best shot :)

Answer 4

use night shot - it will still show the basic shape of the tornado
