About how to shoot landscapes with landscape people

I don't know how to take pictures and I can't shoot.

When it comes to accurate color representation and reproduction, the standards for advertising and product photography are stricter than in any other photography category. What are your tips for photographing landscapes? The following is the relevant content I shared, welcome to read, just for reference!

Multi-zone metering

The picture is divided into multiple areas, each of which uses an independent metering element for metering, and then the internal microprocessor averages the amount of light.

**Emphasis on average metering

Cameras typically focus on metering the frame** (about 60% of the frame) while taking into account the edges of the frame.

Partial (**partial) metering

The camera's metering element measures an area of about 12% of the frame in the center of the frame, and finally averages the weighting to obtain the metering data.

Spot metering

The metering element measures a very small area in the center of the screen from 1% to 3% for metering.

a Multi-zone metering.

The advantage of this metering method is that it can accurately determine the scene environment'Average light**, which is the **mode that most junior movie lovers prefer to choose.

b **Emphasis on average metering.

When there is high contrast or very different colors in the frame, the camera will metering multiple areas and emphasize the focus of metering on one area according to the needs of the photographer.

c Partial (**partial) metering.

This metering mode is ideal for landscapes** where the subject is in the center of the frame and the subject is very different from the background.

d-spot metering.

This metering mode is mostly used when the photographer wants to fully represent the subject, in other words, "measure whoever you want to stand out".

Observe the blue sky

Use the key or matrix metering to read the value of the sky, and follow it to shoot the morning sun, sunset, scenery under the snow on a sunny day, dusk and night scenes, etc. The biggest trouble when shooting is to pay attention to the interference of the sun in the frame. This requires pointing the lens at the side of the sun, which does not include the sun, and reading the value.

But there is a contraindication to this method: cloudy days. Don't read the overcast sky, that won't be a good shot.

Pay attention to flowers and trees

Encounter waterfalls in the forest and overcast fields. **The key metering method frames the whole picture with greenery, reads the value, and then does -2 3 stops (normal green) to file (dark green) compensation, which is the correct **value.

Make use of the palm of your hand

When you can't get the ** value, under the same light conditions, stretch out your palm, fill the palm of your hand with the whole picture or close to filling the whole picture, read the data with **key metering, and then make some **compensation according to the actual effect, that is, your **data.

Don't underexpose the portrait, don't overexpose the scenery

Landscape photography mainly emphasizes the level of shadow tone, and has a high tolerance for the overall noise of the picture, so as long as there is no highlight whitewashing in the early stage, you can get rich layers, bright colors, and moderate noise landscape photos through adjustment and modification in the later stage. The principle of photometering of cameras (digital and various films) is not complicated, and the most important thing is to understand what the photometering system (or light meter) of the camera is based on! In layman's terms, when a camera is measuring the light of a scene, how does it "think" about what it sees?
