Photography tips
How this image was taken
Using a focal length of 400 mm allows you to bring the subject close, while the shutter speed of 1/400 s helps to avoid motion blur at this long range. The aperture of f/8 ensures solid sharpness, and the ISO value of 320 offers a balanced ratio between light sensitivity and image quality.
- Use a long focal length to capture the sun large in relation to the mountain.
- Pay attention to a sufficiently fast shutter speed when using telephoto lenses to minimize camera shake.
- Choose a medium aperture like f/8 for good lens performance.
