If I say first tips on landscape photography, the first thing that comes to mind is to focus and sharpen everything in the whole frame and keep track of how wide your photo frame is. Wide lenses are usually best for this type of photography. Even then, there are a number of things to keep in mind when taking breathtaking landscape photos.
The most important thing before opening the camera is to know the place where you will take the picture. It may be that after three or four days or more at a location, you will discover a wonderful frame that you just can't get to. Again, many times you may automatically click on the frame in your own eyes. But it is better to have a well-understood frame if you are thinking about serious photography.
Then comes the matter of lighting. I will talk about the day or day-light photography here for now. The smaller the aperture, the better for landscape photography. The larger the opening of the lens, the sharper everything near and far from your frame. So raise the value off to 16 as soon as you open the camera. Then comes the shutter speed.
he higher the shutter speed the better. And if your shutter speed is 1/30 second, remember to use a tripod. And if that's not possible, do ISO 300-400 if needed to get a little more light. Because if you have a camera in your hand at low shutter speeds, maybe a blurry frame can come off. However, if there is a tripod, it should not be a problem. In case of colour temperature, if it is a cloudy day, you can select Cloud. If there is sunlight, you can select Day mode.
Or you can set it to 5900K manually. And if you take pictures in RAW format (there is no alternative to RAW Mode in professional photography) then there is no reason to worry about colour temperature. You can change the time of post-processing. The picture you see above is pretty much the same setting I took on a winter morning.
Next, set the camera's Exposure Mode to Aperture Priority (A / AV) and bring the Focus mode to Manual mode. When focusing, focus within 3 meters. This will help you to focus on everything from 1 meter in front of the camera to the far end of the frame. In case of shutter speed let the camera set the automatic shutter if you are confused.
Seascapes, lakes, and rivers are amazing for taking landscape photos. When shooting by or on the ocean, remember to take into account the fact that the tides may be changing throughout the day. There’s lots of landscape photography appsthat can help you figure out the best—and safest—time to shoot.
