How to set the night scene of Canon 700d?

There are many subjects for night shooting, such as car tracks, star tracks, light paintings, scenery, night portraits and so on. The specific parameter setting needs to be determined according to the ambient light, shooting effect and theme.

1, the shooting mode can choose aperture priority, M-file or door B as required, in which door B is generally selected for light painting and fireworks.

2. Under the condition of ensuring the image quality, the ISO should be as low as possible (100 or 200), and too high ISO will produce noise.

3. The shutter speed also needs to be determined according to the ambient light and the subject. For example, the shutter speed must be slow when shooting car tracks, while the portrait at night needs a higher shutter speed.

4. The aperture size should be selected according to the required depth of field. For shallow depth of field, large aperture should be used to highlight details, such as shooting night portraits with large spots, while slow shutter should choose small aperture.

5. You don't have to use automatic white balance to shoot night scenes. In many cases, changing the white balance can make photos bring different effects. Cold-white balance will appear sci-fi, while warm-white balance will appear lively and prosperous.

Precautions for night shooting:

1, don't shoot the night scene too late, it's better when the sun goes down and the lights are on, because the sky is not dead and dark at this time.

2. Avoid too small aperture. Try to choose F8- 13. If the aperture is too small, the image quality will be degraded.

3. The portrait at night can use an external flash as needed, and the shutter speed is too slow, which may cause paste due to the photographer's movement.

Finally, a stable tripod is very important for shooting night scenes.
