How Do You Photograph In Cloudy Weather?
Cloudy days often provide the best time for photography. Overcast weather creates an even lighting situation, so you won’t have to compensate for stark lighting in your camera settings. Lower your shutter speed. Sunny days require fast shutter speeds, such as 1/500, to capture less light. The less light there is to capture, the longer your shutter speed needs to be. Widen your aperture. If you want to keep your shutter speed fast, bump your F-stop ring from 8 to 4. This will make the camera’s shutter opening larger and allow more light in. Since overcast weather offers even lighting, metering anywhere on a subject’s skin gives an accurate light reading.
