Photography Tips & Techniques

Tip 1: Imprescindible trípode* para poca luz invernal; usa objetivos gran angular (17-40 mm) y filtros ND para mares suaves

Dispara en modo AV, ISO 100, f/8-16, con horquillado de exposiciones. Mejores momentos: amanecer/atardecer, debido a la afluencia de gente en otros lugares, incluso en diciembre. Enfoque con botón trasero, puntos AF manuales[1][2][4].

Tip 2: En la estación seca de diciembre en Bali, priorice la hora dorada (6-8 a

m., 5-7 p. m.) para disfrutar de una luz suave en terrazas y templos. Use lentes gran angular (16-35 mm) para paisajes, filtros ND para cascadas sedosas y polarizadores para cielos vibrantes. Respete las normas de vestimenta de los templos (sarong/kain) y las zonas de prohibición de drones. Filme ceremonias de forma ética y sin flash. Es esencial usar trípodes para poca luz; lleve un protector contra la lluvia incluso en la estación seca[1][2][3][6][7].
