Ice & Snow - Samsung Digital Camera Pocket Manual

THE POCKET GUIDE TO THE SAMSUNG NX
ICE & SNOW
Capture all of the drama and action while out enjoying
yourself on the white stuff
Skiing is an exhilarating, fast-moving sport
for all the family with anything from action
shots to portraits to be captured on camera.
The lighting can be very dramatic and the
colours bright and punchy too, which can
fool a camera into underexposing. But don't
worry the NX series have an automatic Beach
& Snow Scene mode for just such conditions.
For the fast stuff, select the Sport Scene mode
and use a longer zoom lens to get close to
the action and fill the frame. And don't just
look on the ground for images, look for skiiers
doing arial tricks and even the odd wipe out –
these look superb in the 30 frames a second
Burst mode.
Cold weather can have dramatic effects on batteries so always take a
spare and keep it warm inside your coat.
DON'T FORGET: USE FILL-IN FLASH
Fill-in Flash will get rid of the harsh shadows that bright sunlight can
produce; all you need to do is find an interesting background.
HOLIDAYS & TRAVEL
