Taking landscape pictures
This section describes how to take outdoor scenery pictures of forests, lakes and beaches in
daylight.

Changing shooting mode
The proper shooting method varies depending on whether
you are trying to capture the silence of a still scene or the
dynamism of a motion scene.
• To capture the depth of a forest, focus with a wider range

Exposure compensation can be used even under different shooting modes. Check the image

Changing white balance
The color of water in pictures appears different depending
on whether it is a lake reflecting nearby trees or a seashore
surrounded by a coral reef. To capture the subtle difference
in color, try changing the white balance setting. Change the
setting for different situations, such as by using [

in color, try changing the white balance setting. Change the
setting for different situations, such as by using [
55300K]
for sunny days and [
27500K] for outdoor shaded areas
on sunny days.
Changing metering mode
Depending on the depth of the water and the direction of the sun,
the brightness of the water can differ significantly in different
areas of the same composition. There is also a difference in the
brightness of forests depending on the way the trees overlap each
other. If you know which areas you want to emphasize the
compensation in the image composition, you can change the
metering mode. When set to [G] (Digital ESP metering), the
camera automatically assesses the brightness in the composition
and determines the exposure. To emphasize a specific partial
exposure in the composition, change the metering mode to [H]
(center weighted metering) or [I] (spot metering), adjust the
metering area to the locations that you want to adjust the
exposure and then measure the exposure.
