Shooting in low light

Photography in low light occupies a special place in photography, perhaps because the bulk of the captured images are taken under the available lighting conditions. The phrase low light includes everything below normal lighting conditions

What types of equipment are suitable for this type of photography? Fast lenses * are at the top of the list, of course. As you will sometimes need the widest lens aperture possible, which either makes a lens aperture such as 1.9 f or 12 f very useful here and there are lenses produced by Canon whose largest lens opens 0.95 f, which makes them able to photograph whatever the lighting conditions. low . But there is no urgent need for such lenses. Your standard lens is f

Fast lenses are every lens whose maximum aperture is less than 2 f, and they are usually: They are more expensive than other lenses because of the extreme purity of their glass elements, which makes them able to capture the weakest types of light. The translator

2.8 is good for the light available, although you will encounter some restrictions on its use at times

The second thing that is necessary for this type of photography is fast film. It will increase your chances of getting printable shots, and its large exposure field will handle extreme contrast well. The last of these necessary equipment is an ultra sensitive light meter, to enable you to measure the dimmest types of lighting, as this meter is sensitive to even the light of a candle.

intuition. When photographing in the dark, you have to rely entirely on the exposure meter to give you the only reading you have left

Shooting in the dark:

This method is not always reliable, so when you have to guess the required aperture and lens speed, resort to the aforementioned circumcision method. Photos by three stops above the pause you chose and three more stops below the chosen pause, so you have obtained 7 shots. One or two of them must come at the required level. Write a list of the exposures that you used so that you can benefit

Including it again in similar lighting conditions, the method of intuition was lost when photographing in the dark, because in normal lighting conditions, the exposure meter calculates the required exposure accurately, and the problem is that you do not know what pause you should consider this follows this method is

The appropriate stance to encircle based on it, so we have prepared for you a list of some of the topics that you may encounter when photographing the night with the amount of exposure required. However, you should not take the figures presented here for granted, but rather you should conduct your own experiments to find out the appropriate exposure, as this list is for guidance only. It is also based on the fact that you are using a movie

Of course, the lighting conditions mentioned here are some of the conditions that you may encounter while shooting. But if you study the topics mentioned here, you will find that it is very easy to estimate the amount of lighting needed for similar topics compared to the list. from
