certainly need some digital camera accessories that play a
major role in enhancing the quality of your pictures.
While the memory cards and battery grips help you to take
more pictures, the tripods improve the quality of images by
reducing blur.
Although there are endless accessories available in the market,
not all are useful for every photographer.
Here is a list of digital photography equipment that you would
need for night photography.
3. Tripods
For shooting at night or
during twilight, you need to
use a long shutter speed.
However, when you lengthen
the shutter speed, chances of
keeping your camera stable
will be difficult.
To avoid any unwanted
camera movement, use a
tripod.
4. Shutter Release
A remote shutter release is one of
those digital camera accessories
that can further enhance your night
photography experience by
reducing even the slightest chance
of camera shakes.
There are instances where even the
best quality tripods fail to give
sharp images. They fail when you
press your shutter button abruptly.
The solution to such issues is
remote shutter release. Hands-free
operation for night photography
will certainly avoid you tripping
over your tripod as well.
5. External Flash
Although night photography looks best when done without any
additional source of light, you may need to use flash in certain
instances. Keep your external flash ready for any emergency.
6. Extra Batteries or Battery
Grips
Since you will be using long exposures, your
camera will be eating up a lot of power.
Further, if you will be shooting star trails or
the blossoming of flowers, you will be literally
draining your batteries.
It is therefore, advisable to use battery grips
that hold extra batteries and lengthen your
shooting time.
7. Fast Lenses
Why not invest in a fast lens that will have a
very large aperture, thereby giving you one or
two f/stops and much faster shutter speeds.
The 50 mm lens is great for shooting in low
light conditions and is worth investing in.
Fast lens much be accompanied with high-end
cameras that can handle high ISOs.
8. Apart from these there are a bunch of
other digital photography equipment
that will give you fabulous photographs
at night or during low light conditions.
