About Lesson

After mastering close-up detail and indoor scenes, the focus shifts to shooting after dark in city environments and dimly lit locations. Learn how improved sensors, noise control, face-priority exposure, and eye autofocus help maintain sharp subjects and balanced colours under streetlights and mixed lighting. The lesson also explores cinematic night video, smooth slow-motion of moving subjects, and creative techniques like light painting, showing how low-light shooting can move beyond basic snapshots into expressive visual storytelling.
