Landscape

Chapel Bridge and Water Tower in Lucerne at sunset

Key tips

  1. Maintain a steady camera grip with a shutter speed of 1/30 s to avoid blur in your landscape composition.
  2. Use a narrow aperture such as f/16 to achieve maximum depth of field across the entire landscape.
  3. Choose a medium aperture like f/7.1 to achieve good depth of field for the landscape.
