When shooting on location, what is the sensitivity generally set? What white balance should be used for sunny and cloudy days?

When shooting on location, the sensitivity is usually set, depending on the weather and light when shooting. If it is cloudy or rainy outdoors, it is recommended to use ISO500~ISO 1600. When shooting in low light, it is necessary to set low sensitivity, cooperate with high sensitivity noise reduction and long exposure noise reduction to obtain high image quality.

If shooting in the evening or night light, it is recommended to use ISO 1600~ISO6400. Pay attention to the setting of white balance on cloudy days, and it is ideal to change the white balance mode to cloudy days. If the shutter is too slow due to insufficient light, the ISO sensitivity should be improved at this time to improve the overall brightness of the photo. When shooting outdoors on sunny days, you can set the white balance function in daytime mode.

Extended data:

Technically, light should be the most important thing in photography. Of course, where there is light, there will be shadows. There are many places to feel the light and shadow during the journey. As long as there is light between buildings, people and hutongs, we can find the perfect combination of light and shadow.

From the natural freedom of light, the facial contour shaped by side light to the silhouette effect formed by backlight, the tension of the picture can be strengthened and the story sense of the play can be increased. In the final analysis, knowing the light is half the battle.

In modern photography, there is a shooting method called "a little clear", which is the "reality" in the picture, while the images other than "a little clear" are blurred, which is the "emptiness" in the picture.

On the premise of mastering the correct exposure, we can adjust the shutter and aperture value appropriately, slow down the speed and reduce the aperture, so that we can shoot floating girls under the high-speed shutter or colorful light under the slow shutter. As long as we know how to use it, we will shoot the desired effect.
