Some other things that make your life easier.
First thing hasn't change since Ansel Adams and that is we shoot landscape images
on tripod!
For 1 shot HDRs you might get away without tripod now and then but
for multiple shots HDR, you need three or five or sometimes even seven same
photos with just different exposure. Believe me without tripod you are lost! As
everything is connected with money, I'm sorry to say that, but if you want to
have a good tripod you will need to spend a bit more money. The prices of good
tripods start at about 250$. About the head of tripod you should be aware, that
capacity of head should 100% exceed the weight of camera and lens combine, if
you want to have peace for some time.
If you want to minimize shaking of camera, use mirror up function which
rises mirror a second or so before opening sensor curtain. Remote trigger is
your ally as well.
Another thing is not so much connected with costs but your safety:
- warm dress in winter,
- water on trips(always but specially in summer),
- boots near water,
- spare clothing always!
This would
be about basics, in later afternoon post I will write about another source of
tons of information about photography.
All in Passion for HDR!
