Photography tips
How this image was taken
In this image, an open aperture of f/2.8 and an ISO of 1600 were used to allow a shutter speed of 1/30 s in low light conditions. The 9 mm focal length provides a wide perspective, framing Mount Pilatus and the lake.
- Use an open aperture to gain enough brightness for your shot in fading light.
- Choose a 9 mm focal length if you want to capture a vast landscape with mountains and water in a wide angle.
- Pay attention to the balance between light sensitivity and image noise when setting your ISO, especially when shooting at dusk.
