What is the best way to take a photo with digital cameras outside?
Use
automatic exposure for most outdoor scenes. Override automatic exposure
when the scene is much lighter or darker than middle gray. Increase
exposure to lighten a scene; decrease exposure to darken a scene.
Override automatic exposure when the sun is behind or on one side
of the scene to be shot. Override automatic exposure when light
reflects off of bright sand or snow. Experiment with overriding
automatic exposure for high-contrast scenes. Use a light meter to
determine the appropriate aperture setting and shutter speed. Adjust
the aperture setting and shutter speed in small steps. Shoot a picture
and preview it to evaluate settings. Adjust as necessary and shoot
again. Try shooting from several angles; you can delete the worst
choices on the spot.
