Photography tips
How this image was taken
This shot uses a 200 mm focal length to highlight specific details of the Zytturm clock tower. The aperture of f/25 provides deep focus, while the shutter speed of 1/250 s allows for precise exposure in daylight.
- Use a long focal length to isolate architectural details from the background and bring the subject closer.
- Choose a narrow aperture if you want to achieve deep focus to render the fine structures of the building sharply.
- Pay attention to the balance between aperture and ISO to maintain a fast shutter speed for blur-free images, even when using small apertures.
