Digital photography is full of artistic creativity and inspiration, and the characteristics of the digital camera itself with operational makes we have some different from traditional camera shooting skills, such as in a macro photography, the digital camera is relatively traditional camera has the great advantage, and in night photography, digital camera becomes slightly more difficult.

Today we will and we explore digital camera for night shooting skills.

Tip: accurate exposure control is digital camera at night photography.

Use the night scene mode shooting

Currently, many high-end digital cameras offer P (auto), A (aperture priority), S (shutter priority), M (manual) shooting mode of exposure, and most digital cameras are available with scenes shot mode, the most common model is the night view mode and macro mode two, some digital cameras offer more detailed rich scene mode, you can even get in the evening, the night shooting mode and other features.

Through this night scene mode typically are able to obtain satisfactory results, for most digital camera beginners take this approach to landscape photography is the most simple and secure method, but note that some digital cameras in the night scene mode cannot synchronize Flash operation.

Computer synthesis second exposure

As a result of night photography, ambient light, contrast, and a digital camera is electronic photosensitive element (that is, we often say CCD), due to technical constraints due to the resulting information is vulnerable to the effects of noise, dark detail weaker, and the General digital camera can not like the traditional camera as secondary exposure, which is the traditional camera when shooting a night view of the commonly used techniques, however we can use computers to solve this problem: first, make sure the photo like file size and format and the camera's settings, clear picture, and then on the night light situation before still relatively good time to take a picture; maintain the original focal length unchanged, lanterns, and then set the exposure value on your digital camera, be sure to pay attention not to change the lens focal length and change the image file size format, and then take a photo from the other; the two photos into the computer, using image processing software (such as Photoshop or PhotoImpact software) for the treatment of late synthesis, in this way, you can simple and convenient access to high-quality stock images.

This method can also be cooked up the exquisite character stock photos.

Focusing mainly on experience

There is also a fixed focus mode digital camera has a small basic is 200 million the following products, other many digital cameras have been used the auto focus and manual focus with AF mode.

Each focus mode have corresponding characteristics and the application object, such as a spin-manual focus and manual focus ring. Spin-manual focus through the LCD display of distance spin to achieve accurate AF, AF mode operation in trouble, on distance judgment requires higher, but for shooting night such subjects, but efficient.

In General, non-SLR or non-quasi-SLR digital camera in af accuracy and speed on a lot of room for improvement.

Because ordinary digital camera af sensors for low contrast and low brightness of the scene to accurate autofocus, autofocus for night shooting, try to focus on the bright scenes, alignment char before locking the focus framing.
