It’s time you get more involved with your DSLRs and get to know some of its underutilized features. These features are really important although at first you might not even recognize them. I’m sure once you get to know these features, you will be using them more often.
HISTOGRAM It will correctly instruct you about the exposure, the graphs on right and left side will tell you about if the picture is underexposed or over exposed. Make sure the majority of lines recline just at the centre of the graph and least at the either sides.
PICTURE STYLE You want your work to be exceptional then avoid being standard all the time and exploit different picture styles by changing the settings. Depending on shooting situations, choose the most suitable picture style which will also define your film style. Picture Style can actually add thrill and emotions to your still pictures.
LIVE VIEW With live view one can zoom-in on portions of the subject at maximum x5 or x10 magnification. It’s helpful when you’re shooting at night and want to use autofocus, or while doing macro work.
SELF TIMER Rely on self-timers to take long exposure shots. Mount your camera either on a tripod, or balanced on something, without getting any camera shake. You might get slight camera shake while releasing the shutter button however by the time the self timer releases the shutter, the image will be sharply focused.
FLASH EXPOSURE You must have observed that in-camera flashes come too strong and overpowering. They make shots look oddly bright and artificial. That’s where the flash exposure compensation feature helps. For example try, -2 for as starter and see what you’re getting. If you want less light, reduce the value even more. And similarly you can make it stronger too!
Knowing these features will definitely improve your imagery. So, be excited to use them and have hands-on experience to mark the difference. Keep Calm & Capture Awesome Moments !!
