Shooting Landscapes - Canon EOS Rebel SL1 18-55mm IS STM Kit Instruction Manual

3 Shooting Landscapes

Use the <3> (Landscape) mode for wide scenery or to have
everything in focus from near to far. For vivid blues and greens, and
very sharp and crisp images.
Shooting Tips
With a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end.
When using the wide-angle end of a zoom lens, objects near and far
will be in focus better than at the telephoto end. It also adds breadth
to landscapes.
Shooting night scenes.
The <3> mode is also good for night scenes because it disables
the built-in flash. Use a tripod to prevent camera shake.
The flash will not fire even in backlit or low-light conditions.
