How to prevent overexposure of light when shooting at night?
1. photometry: Spot photometry is used to measure slightly brighter areas, because matrix photometry measures all areas in the picture, and the result is overexposure. You can also use Nikon's unique highlight metering function. This metering mode will meter the highlights in the picture, and get highlights photos without overexposure. Or use the exposure compensation function to reduce the exposure compensation to obtain a photo with normal exposure in the highlight area.
2. Adjust the shooting distance: appropriately increasing the shooting distance can prevent the flash from being too bright. As long as the photographer keeps a proper distance from the subject, he can not only narrow the distance between us and the subject with zoom, but also make the fill light effect of the flash more natural.
3. Prop aid: It is also a good choice to soften the flash with props. For the external flash of SLR camera, we can try to add a light effect with a soft mask to soften the flash. If the photographer uses the built-in flash of the camera, he can soften the flash with paper towels, butter paper, etc.
4. Reflective flash technology: If the flash head of the external flash can be twisted when shooting, you can try to use reflective flash technology. The method is to turn the flash head to the ceiling, or the left and right walls, and use large reflective surfaces to soften the lighting effect. Photographers should pay attention to the color and distance of the reflecting surface. For example, when shooting outdoors, they should not put the flashing lamp holder up and let the sky act as a reflecting surface.
Finally, I would like to remind you that different night scenes need different lighting treatment methods, and the above methods need to be used flexibly according to specific situations.
