![]() ![]() If you need something cheaper, but heavier, the Vanguard Alta Pro is a good option. You can hang your camera bag on it to weigh the tripod down a bit so it doesn’t move in the wind. If you do go for a lightweight tripod, ensure to find one with a counterweight hook on the bottom of the central column. Lightweight tripods are fantastic to carry as they won’t break your back, but they don’t always hold their own in adverse weather. Carbon Fiber tripods, like the Benro Mach3 combines strength and lower weight, but you do pay for it. If you’re shooting high up in the mountains or on a windy day - think about how sturdy you need your tripod to be. If, however, you want to shoot long exposure (perhaps to capture the movement of long grasses), or you're shooting in the evening or under dark clouds where there isn't much light and therefore need to lengthen your shutter speed, you will definitely need a tripod. ![]() Many lenses have built-in image stabilization so you can achieve some good results without the use of a tripod. You can get away with shooting handheld if there is a lot of good light, or if you're shooting a scene without much movement. You can shoot without one in many cases, but there are certain situations and conditions where you definitely will need one. If you're composing a shot of the moon, in a landscape, the telephoto lens is your best friend.Īlthough a tripod is very useful to have, they aren't always a necessity for landscape photography. This would be a great lens to use if you want to focus on certain objects further away, or if there isn't much interest in the scene as a whole. Telephoto lenses can also be used in landscape photography - longer focal lengths are great for zooming in to isolate certain aspects of the scene, and the compression makes the objects appear much closer together. Generally, wide lenses are ideal for night sky photography and astro. Specialized wide lenses usually run from 14-24mm, although some drop as low as 10mm. Wider focal lengths are primarily used for larger scenes with a foreground, mid-ground, and background. They're wide enough to capture broad vistas, but have enough zoom to pick out specific areas of a scene. Most kit lenses are somewhere within the region of 24-70mm, which is a great starting point for landscape photography. ![]() Generally, in landscape photography you’ll be using a wide-angle to mid-range focal length for the majority of your shots. Many photographers will actually purchase a certain lens first, then find a camera body that will fit that particular lens. I believe that my collection of pictures is the largest selection of independent Lake District landscape photography prints available and is essentially my life's work as a photographer.When it comes to choosing a camera for landscape photography, the focus (pun intended) isn’t so much on the camera body itself, but more so on which lens you choose.
