What are the details of shooting sunrise time-lapse photography?

Details of shooting sunrise time-lapse photography:

1. daytime shooting: basically, you can set the exposure mode in aperture priority mode, while the white balance is selected automatically, and the ISO value is as low as possible. Most importantly, the shutter speed should be as slow as possible. If you shoot with a high-speed shutter of11000 seconds or 1 /2000 seconds, you will get a condensed instantaneous picture, but you need to edit it into a flowing film later.

2. Photometric mode: It is recommended that you use comprehensive/average photometry (matrix photometry and weighted photometry), because the shooting time of time-lapse photography is very long, during which the scenery is constantly changing. If you choose central dimming or spot metering, metering errors may occur, resulting in the problem that the bright part is too bright or the dark part is too dark.

3. exposure compensation: generally speaking, if the shooting can be reduced by about 0.3EV, the picture color will be saturated; If you don't add/subtract light at all, the overall color will be very dull.

4. Focus: For daytime shooting, you can turn on autofocus first, then turn off autofocus and switch to manual focus. This is to prevent some moving scenes, vehicles or people from affecting the focusing system during shooting, resulting in the focusing area running to the wrong range.
