A Short Field Guide for Landscape Photography

Equipment Familiarity: As is the case with most things, you need to be familiar with your equipment. You should know the different features of your camera and to use the most appropriate ones according to the scene in front of you.

File Format: Shoot in Raw for the best image quality. This does not mean that high quality JPEGs will not provide good images, but Raw files offer the highest image quality.

White Balance: Set WB to either Auto or Direct Sunlight (Daylight). Since you’ll be shooting in Raw, you can easily change the WB, if necessary, in Adobe Camera Raw.

ISO: Set your camera to its lowest ISO for superior image quality. This is usually ISO 100.

Metering Mode: If you are not familiar with the metering modes, set the metering mode to Evaluative / Matrix.

Autofocus Area Mode: Set the AF mode to Single-point AF.

Shooting Mode: Set the Shooting mode to Aperture Priority (If you are comfortable with Manual exposure mode, you may use that mode).
