The BEST camera SETTINGS for landscape photography
Рет қаралды 118,895
4 жыл бұрынThere is no such thing as "the best" camera settings for landscape photography. In this video, I will share my approach and philosophy to getting the most optimal camera settings so you can improve your landscape photography. Shutter speed, aperture, and ISO can be complicated in the beginning but when you understand how little settings actually matter you will be surprised! I also share a lot of my own photos and what settings I used to get them.

I’ve started to think that questions like “what settings should I use?” and “what gear should I buy?” are caused by people trying to find the “secret shortcut” for making nice photos. It’s understandable though, because one key takeaway from your videos is that it takes lots and lots of time and hard work to actually learn to make great photos. And even if you spend all that time there’s still no guarantee that you’ll come home with something beautiful, since there are so may things you can’t control (especially with landscape photography). So you’ll need to spend lots of time, and time is very hard to find for most of us. I’m trying to accept that it will take me lots of time to learn and that, but it’s pretty difficult. I’m trying though, and focusing on learning and on the experience of being outdoors. Someone (maybe Charlie Waite?) said something similar to “if you’ve made 12 photos that you’re happy with in a year, then that was a good year”, and that is for a full time photographer... Anyways, thanks for the great video Mads! Lots of things to think about.

Thanks Mads, another down-to-earth lesson for aspiring photographers.. As a club photographer, I do understand how images 'should be' to score well in competition and unfortunately many of us take this into the field. The sad reality is that individual creativity goes out the window in pursuit of the tick box image. The bullcrap comment was like getting slapped with a wet fish - it just made me realise that its YOUR OWN interpretation of what is in front of YOUR lens is the all important aspect. The settings of any image are - IT DEPENDS!! Thanks

Thanks for yet another great and educational video. It's nice to hear You say that there is no specific settings to use for the image to get the WOW factor. After I start picking up photographing again, and start following Landscape photographer here on KZfaq, I have realized that there is no right setting. Checking the histogram has for me been the most eye opening tip that have changed my photographing. In the beginning I was struggling with no info in the shadow, and no info in the highlights. I went through a lot of KZfaq videos, most of the telling me to use Aperture mode. I tried that, but still most of my photos were crap. I tried and tried to control the light, no luck. Then someone said to use the ISO, but that didn't save my blown highlights, only my shadows. so I slowly start loosing my enjoyment for photographing. Now I have gone all manual, just for pros I have been told, not sure if I do it right, but now I finally manages to control my histogram, and save the info I lost before. The enjoyment start blooming again. So for me it's been a battle to finally figure out what you sharing in this video. Setting depend on a whole variety of possibilities. After I changes to manual I ended up with a question I'm not been able to answer yet. Maybe since You have used Canon earlier You may have the answer. Before I startet to use manual mode, my RAW files were kind a greyish, almost foggy, as I understand that's normal, it's something about the dynamic range someone said in a video. But after I changed to manual mode, my RAW files are more colorful??? Do the color in RAW files change from lens to lens? Does the sudden "explosion" of color in my RAW files happen because I used the Canon 18-55 mm kit lens from my old Canon 350D, and not my "cheap" second hand Sigma 10-20 mm Wide angle ??

One of the joys of digital photography is that you can see the results straight up. Take the shots again and again, change settings and try again. As long as the light holds who cares if it takes one shot or one hundred to get the results you are after. No green screen required for your vlogs Mads, your own photos really do a wonderful job. Photography is definitely not a one size fits all thing. That would be rather boring . Thanks again for sharing your time and photos. And of course your knowledge.

Thanks Mads, yes, I struggle with settings but composition is really what makes a photograph pop or not, but my question or I wonder if in every scene is there an epic photograph waiting to be discovered? or do you just have to be on location at precisely the right time to catch that epic light. F/8 at 1/160 on a 85mm on a water scene was incredibly sharp but you're right it has to say something to you. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and insights with us.

Thank you for sharing. I think the greatest part is the closing of the video. How said settings effect a photo is good to know, but as mentioned, conditions, timing and desired end results from the photographer is hard to get from a photo, unless you talk to said photographer. I also think our current mental condition(frustration or anger or relaxed) plays into end results as well.

Great background! By the way, you might want to use a nice background on your excellent conversations with other photographers. I liked your videos with Nigel and Kai, but the backgrounds were distracting. Regarding settings, I have progressed enough to feel that I can use the settings that are needed rather than those prescribed by experts, and that's very satisfying.

Completely right, there is no “one setting” that fits all. I’m relatively new to photography and thought I’d made an awful mistake shooting a snowy landscape of my local church and surrounding landscape at f5 instead of f11. The most important part of the image was the subject (the spire with snow down one side) I focused on that, it didn’t matter that the flat field in the foreground, covered in snow needed to be sharp (it was featureless) It turned out to one of my best images to date and one I’m proud of 😉 Since that moment I experiment with settings for any given scene and usually take a couple of images at different settings to compare
@snowblower33 4 жыл бұрын
By far the best vid ive watched re choice of aperture and getting the shot you want. Most bang on about f8 f11 diffraction(which ive been doing because everyone says it) but youve really put it out to me that it doesnt really matter and with a bit of thinking, and you can execute it right, you can get the shot at any aperture.
@Mrbluesplayer43 4 жыл бұрын
Excellent video and some wonderful pictures. However, I wouldn't worry about the distance trees being soft in the woodland photograph. Many photographers seem to place far too much emphasis (and in many cases seem obsessed) on front-to-back sharpness when in reality it is completely unnatural. Our eyes certainly don't see things sharp front-to-back and we only see things sharp where our eyes are actually focused with everything else soft in our peripheral and distant vision. I find some landscapes just don't look 'right' when distant objects are too sharp. I've never focus stacked, and it's unlikely I ever will. I'm perfectly happy to let the distance background sharpness fall off a little and find for most landscapes I can achieve acceptable depth of natural sharpness using apertures up to f16.

I can fully agree with you that all these settings elements are highly destructive for creativity. All situations are different - this is the ELEMENT - that makes the landscape and nature photography so beautiful. The elements you do not and will never control. However when I think of myself many many years ago ... the settings questions were amongst those I asked to NPN photographers or ... let's say Guy Tal (on Flickr at that time and yes he replied many times)... And yes at some stage of your development as a photographer this kind of questions are normal and really shall not be disregarded by "The Photographers" These questions for me are a simple stage of development and many (maybe not all) have to pass through that stage... If we are really in a share spirit we shall never forget it ....

Personally, I feel that, in that second shot in the woods, 18:45, the somewhat out-of-focus background contributes to the sense of depth, and usually prefer it that way in such photos. Other times, not so much. Depends on the subject & composition. Often good for forests; otherwise, you can't see the trees for the forest.

You mentioned the RX100 Vii in your video - this is a camera that has peaked my interest of late due to its 200mm reach. What are your thoughts on this camera - is it worth investing in. As I get older I find it increasingly more dificult to carry heavy gear so I bought a Mk Va version and I am impressed with its quality - thats the lower f stops covered in reasonable light, but I would like to know how good the Mk Vii is for the long end. I only intend to use this camera outdoors in reasonable light and any advice/help from an existing user/owner (with your experience and knowledge) would be greatly appreciated. Any chance of a quick 'hands on' video that would not only help me but maybe others who watch your channel and are interested in the Mk Vii

A question regarding the "Windmills" photo at f4.5...you stated the "foreground reflection is the same as needed for the background". This puzzles me, as the camera does not know it is a reflection, but merely another element in the image (which adds more DOF). I know it was shot at 30", but the reflection does appear out of focus and was wondering if it were due to being out of the narrow DOF you chose. TY! and hope to here your answer!

Again showing that personal preference is a large part of photography, with regard to the photos you took of the trees with the early morning light rays and fog: you commented that you wished the background was in sharper focus - but for me, the background was wrapped in mist or fog and I would want it slightly out of focus to increase the "moodiness" of the scene. So the fact that the background might have been slightly less sharp than the main subject was not a problem - particularly since our eyes tend to be attracted to sharper objects and you want the viewer to mainly focus on the subject of the photo: the larger trees in the foreground.

What I seem to be missing from this is some discussion of where you are focusing in a scene to get maximum dof. hyperfocal distance? 2x hyperfocal? 1/3 into the frame etc? or you just wing it and check the sharpness in liveview at 100% ?

That's what I usually do. Every scene is different and I don't bother to count the meters to my foreground. Just checking it after I get the shot is enough 99% of the time.

Mads enjoy watching your vlogs mate,i have a question, it might be silly but I've got to ask. Do you need to use landscape mode when doing landscape? Sorry if I'm being thick 👍🏾

Do you mean as a format? Then no, or do you mean in the picture style? Then it depends if you're shooting jpeg. And I'll highly advice against shooting jpeg ;)

Yes sorry I meant picture style. I don't shoot jpeg only raw. Cheers .

I was confused by your 3 shot pano @ 9.39 mins. How did you stitch the image with such a dynamic wave pattern at obviously different points in their cycle across the three images? Is there an explanation to the Mads magic somewhere else in your body of videos or are you a wizard? Or am I just misunderstanding?
