Shooting Interiors
Yesterday I learned some very important lessons in interior photography. My wife & I were taking pictures of houses that we were considering buying. I can’t post the pics, for obvious reasons, but I can enumerate the lessons:
- 18mm isn’t wide enough on a DSLR (the 1.5X crop strikes again!). I need a lens like the Nikkor 12-24mm f4 to properly shoot interior spaces.
- I should’ve used the mounted flash. I tried to use existing light. But even with the very bright mid-day sun coming in the windows, I was doomed.
So now I know.
But since we think we’ve found the house we want, I’m not sure I’ll be using this new information anytime soon. 😉
