    I vividly remember this.... I was in it. There was a Whelen 2905 outside our school. Everyone's phone went off. First, mine. I got up and showed it to a staff member at school. A couple moments later, the siren wailed into life as all hell broke loose, I promise you, it looked like a funnel cloud out those double doors. That was the day I thought I would see Jesus.

      It was nuts out there. The initial gust front was crazy, blew my camera over at around 1:05. The camera angle at the beginning faces where the NWS placed the warning.

    We have only one of these in my town. My town is full of Sentry 14V-Bs. I’m 1 mile away from one of them but the Whelen is 3 miles away and it sounds louder than the Sentry. They also do tests every week on a noon Wednesday and yet the Whelen is the only one I can hear than the Sentry. So it works very well I’d say.

  • @MrScottie68
    @MrScottie68 5 років тому +2

    • @DSRX100
      @DSRX100  6 років тому

      Usually my settings are going to be different depending on the environment I'm shooting in. Make sure your ISO is set to the lowest setting. Occasionally I've forgotten to change this. Another thing you can do is increase shutter speed, or adjust your aperture to a higher f stop. You can also buy an ND filter to cut down light. They're pretty cheap, and pretty useful too on bright days.

    • @amberlynn6914
      @amberlynn6914 6 років тому

      DSRX100 Might end up needing one of those filters. It’s mildly ridiculous, how easily it washes. Like, the only example I uploaded is a Little Giant... you can hardly see the siren. It’s bad.

    What camera do you use?

      @DSRX100  6 років тому

      I was using a Canon T5 and an older Sony Handycam. I'll be upgrading relatively soon with (hopefully) the Sony a7S II.

      Yeah it was fine, thankfully it landed on the camera strap which cushioned the drop a bit.

      Well obviously his camera isn't broken if it's still filming the siren and it's a little crybaby speakers!

    If I heard those background alerts plus the siren at night, I'd run to my mom and shake the crap outta her if she was sleeping.
