How to use Polarizing Filters

DSLR Tips Workshop: Using polarizing filters to cut through haze and deepen blue skies
Landscape shots with distant subjects like canyon rims or mountain ranges can often look hazy even under the sunniest conditions. One of the most effective ways of cutting through this haze and capturing a vibrant photo with saturated colours and a deep blue sky is to use a polarizing filter. In this workshop we’ll show you everything you need to know.

Clean the DSLR Lens. How To?

Our techniques for minimising and eliminating dust essentially follows the manufacturer’s own advice. Clearly the most vulnerable time is when the lens is removed from the body, so beyond being careful about the environment in which you change lenses, try and also apply the following.
First switch the camera off to reduce the static charge on the sensor which could attract particles.
Secondly, hold the camera facing down to minimise particles in the air from entering – see photo right.
Third, use a body cap to prevent any dust from entering the camera, although ensure it’s clean and dust-free first.
And fourth, before you attach the new lens, ensure its rear surface is also free from dust.

DSLR Tips Workshop: How to take photos at night
Photos taken at night can produce spectacular results – in fact many cities present their best views after dark. Night photography can also be very forgiving in bad weather, so if rain’s prevented you from grabbing the shots you want of a city, it’s well worth trying again after sunset. Night photography can prove quite a challenge in Automatic modes, but it’s surprisingly easy with a few simple tricks and in this workshop we’ll explain how.
In the photo of Christmas lights above left, the camera’s automatic settings have selected an exposure that’s way too quick, and as a consequence the image is too dark. The trick to successful night photography is to get much more light into your camera for a decent-looking image, as seen in the image above right. In our video tutorial below, we’ll explain how to achieve this effect, and at the bottom of the page you’ll find a reminder of the steps you’ll need to take.
