[QUOTE="MeSess, post: 298973, member: 21237"] Try shooting in manual mode primarily and learn the relationship between shutter speed, aperture and iso. It will give you a better understanding of what's going on in any particular situation. With the settings you have, you're letting the camera do a lot of the work and it can be wrong. These are the general settings I start at for a landscape shot: Manual mode - I personally don't want my camera doing any guess work WB Auto - shooting RAW so I can fix this in post iso - manual - start at 100 on a really sunny day and higher with less light Aperture - start at f8 and adjust for better depth of field if needed Shutter speed set according to the exposure meter with the above settings in place AF - Continuous and the focus activation moved to the AE-L/AF-L button Dynamic Area Matrix Metering [/QUOTE]
