Personally I almost use either AV or TV mode (which to choose being an entirely different topic), switching to manual only when using flash or extreme lighting conditions. If you do not have a thorough understanding of exposure and metering techniques, then 99% of the time the camera's auto modes will do a better job. The only value of shooting manual is to take control over the camera's automation.

Incidentally it is possible to get excellent exposures with a bit of trial and error by using the histogram - but I don't recommend this. Apologies to the OP is he knows this already, but as no-one seems to have mentioned lightmeters, I thought I should. There seems to be a tendency for people to hear about experts shooting in manual mode and think this is the way to go but without understanding what this entails.

In manual mode you are overriding the auto-exposure system of the camera therefore you need toĪ) learn how to use the camera's built in lightmeter and understand what you are being told by the info in the viewfinder

** Anet is not the best place to learn about composition once you have the exposure thing nailed then there is focus and composition**. Having said that without a basic understanding of how light works and how a camera records that light you will only ever achieve reasonable results by happy accident.Īs Matt & Darren said learn about the "exposure triangle" it wll be a big step towards success. no buying film, paying for processing and waiting days to see what a hash you made of your shots. so much cheaper now, just learn from your mistakes, delete the shot and try again. no need any more, the camera records this data in more detail than anyone ever did in wet film days(many of us couldn't be bothered and kept on making mistakes)

The data on each shot that needed to be recorded so one could learn from one's mistakes. learn the craft.ĭespite the incredible advances in technology over the last couple of decades you still need to learn the craft! Many on this forum are likely tiring of my personal hobby horse. or portraiture, motorsport, landscapes or any other subject. Quoting YYCSpotter ( Thread starter): as I thought I found the best settings,Īs Matt & Darren pointed out there are no best settings for aviation. There's more to photography than just pointing a camera at an aircraft and pressing a button! I would recommend reading a basics of photography book first though then get lots of practice.

Use ISO 100 on a bright day (with -1/3 exposure compensation if needed) and ISO 200-400 on a cloudy day. A good start is aperture priority at f/8-f/10 as this is the sweet spot sharpness wise for most lenses. As others have said, settings very much depend on available light and what type of shot you're trying to achieve so every situation will be different. If you don't have an understanding of the basics, I wouldn't recommend you shoot in manual for the time being. Once you understand exposure and the exposure triangle, things should start to make sense.

Rather than asking what the best settings are, I think some learning in the basics of photography would be better in order to understanding the exposure triangle and how it interacts with each other. Quoting YYCSpotter ( Thread starter): and am wondering what the best settings are for aviation photography
