10 Tips for Better Landscape Photos!

[@peterkay9050]

Another excellent and typically Kai video. I even watch the ones that ostensibly have nothing to do with my style or gear choice because I always learn something and am always entertained. Brilliant. Thank you :0)

[@tombuck]

Thanks for this! I’ve been itching to explore landscape photography, but never really knew where to begin. It’s so different from what I’m used to.

[@shamimazad007]

I'm a amateur photographer, thanks for helping... ♥️

[@shawn4820]

I tapped the like button with a decent amount of force, but nothing that would cause anyone to look over. Also, thanks for doing this video. I've shot landscapes for ages but every now and then I fall into a rut.

[@aizul9134]

Love your videos style. .the words, the script, plot. .

[@Thexderify]

Love the way you present your video. New to aerial photography and photography in general but your vids have been a great inspiration.

[@keiz_]

I am getting more into photography and am taking it more seriously than before, I would like to do some professional stuff too, so I really appreciate these videos! Street and landscape is my favorite. Thanks for another great videos! Also holy cow that hair!

[@michaelkeaton32]

I've never heard an explanation as good as yours for why you use long exposures for landscapes. Great tips, thanks. 👍

[@robkhughes]

Kai's Back! Doing what he does best - piss taking, potty mouthed, irreverent and funny! Love it, button bangered and mashed.

[@CJamesPhoto]

What makes you great is how well you cover fails and just make it fun! plus you are an excellent teacher, you are the first youtuber i really started watching and i have come so far in my photography, now i am also doing youtube videos. so i just want to say thank you for what you do :)

[@pmenzel86]

Thomas Heaton is well worth checking out for people interested in landscape. Interestingly, he often uses a 70-200 to catch details rather than broader panoramas

[@rexowenwaide2170]

I love your videos Kai. Information, entertainment, personality, puns. Thank you.

[@sonaljitmukherjee4163]

Damn, here you are!!! I loved watching your camera reviews on digitalrevTV. Didn't know you started your own channel.

[@keithphillips1737]

Brilliant tips! Love your presentation style and humour!

[@edgaut9808]

Watching this again, I think this is one of your best Kai. Keep this great content up!

[@alexcanham2709]

I needed this video! Ive been shooting landscapes a lot lately and have been wondering what I can do to make them better. Thanks Kai!

[@autumn.chills]

Thank you so much for not explaining this like a twat. This is the first truly comprehensive intro to landscape photography I have had. Keep it up!

[@RegularSean]

I lightly tapped the like button.

[@lohst1672]

[@jeffmarston8586]

I really liked this one. Even the videos you make that are not as good as this one give me a laugh. Thanks!

[@lims-karen3127]

Always loving your tips and sense of humour :) you have a great teaching style!

[@Nathanza]

Funny that I'm going on a trip to the Peak District so thought I'd take a look at this video - and lo and behold, you also went to Mam Tor!

[@kennethl7275]

His voice is so therapeutic!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@KudaPoniMerayap]

[@danmate28]

Nice one Kai, it's sometimes easy to forget some of these tips so it's always useful to get a reminder! Lightly tapped the 'Like' button...

[@ChiliTamale]

[@jianweng832]

[@hemidesign]

Its not easy to do all this video review or tips by yourself ... can't imagine how much work without Lok and the crew like before! .. be strong Kai and God bless you brother!

[@FabricEyes]

Your videos always make me want to go out and shoot (photos) - Really great motivation, as always.

[@ElijahAnthonyF]

I love how carelessly entertaining your tuts and content is :) thank you for this, such a helpful topic for my films and photos keep it up! a 14 year old filmmaker...

[@xavierlevaux621]

Very enjoyable sense of humour and nice tips.thanks 😊

[@pearldrummer4077]

Brilliant video. Funny and informative in equal measure.

[@mikefellows3901]

Love your videos, informative and always a good dose of humour !!

[@jackd513]

Hey kai love the content, where is the tunnel you cycle through at 2:09 ? Thanks

[@leiigghhh]

Maybe you can do a video on some lenses you use for landscape, or some gear that you use? For instance, certain items that might be useful for certain unforeseeable conditions. You have the experience so I would love it if you considered doing a video like this. Keep up the great work Kai!

[@user-vs2em9mz8m]

Love the down jacket with fur hood, would love to know where to find one.

[@chriseastty2874]

You still need to come to Southend for some seascapes😀😀 and let me know when your coming 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@Bulwark1911]

*Ya had me at "Deep fried diarrhea!"*

[@jasonh6799]

He had me when he refer lighting as electricity 😂😂

[@A_WC_C]

Mmmm GH5 AUTOFOCUS

[@daanstam6697]

Imagine canon making a camera like the gh5 but with their autofocus. Eevverryyoonnee would start using it.

[@daanstam6697]

A. S. It is still the largest camera manufacturer

[@LeytonC]

I wish I could go back in time and track down the person who was responsible for the GH5 autofocus system, and kick his dad in the nuts on the day of conception.

[@salchiflas]

I DON'T KNOW, It look like he is hiding his mucus :P

[@Noksus]

A. S. Can you give me an example of their "innovation"?

[@andersbrathen]

You have the best KZbin channel Kai.

[@TheRealRichardWong]

informative and also fun video Kai! Your recent videos are all great

[@vonzarooz]

You are my favorite person on KZbin.

[@Jamnik_27]

So much useful info in this video, thanks Kai!

[@davidddmaoqiu]

Great video! Hope that you can do a video about the stock photography nowdays!

[@suriyeshirunsap8475]

Please talk more about MD filter amd how it should be use

[@thomashill5768]

Was that the cycle tunnel around Bath? Bloody love that bike path, basically turns into a cider crawl...

[@SirTomster1]

Great Points! Explore, Explore, Explore and find cool shit. Thomas Heaton has convinced me that landscapes on a zoom can be awesome too. I have always been a Wide Angle kind of guy (Rokinon 14mm)

[@ChrisTopheRaz]

Ha ha I’m subscribing simply because you make it fun with the humor. Good job

[@kyle_vr]

What is the grey Hoodie you're wearing?

[@ryanellis4474]

You made the best video for photography tips today.

[@0x_brandon]

That Stone Island jacket is 🔥

[@3ATIVE]

I get that an variable filter will reduce the amount of light getting in... However, why doesn't reducing the the ISO and opening the F-Stop have the same effect?

[@dadanardi5541]

based on my experience using the lowest iso and having f8 or f11 is not dark enough to have that blur effect, especially at the sunny beach.

[@oharip]

idk what to say. u always gimme inspiration kai. hello from Malaysia!

[@sam1989tex]

Amazing videos!!! Thank so much for every video!!!

[@Chiro75]

You always crack me up and I always appreciate it!

[@dsgregg]

Awesome video Kai. Really.

[@domiash]

Kai for the win! Always stellar video's sir!

[@STNG17-]

FINALLY AFTER WAITING FOR A DECADE! THANK YOU

[@SyncdDesign]

Very nice work... best video for a while and i need to get me one of them syrp filters

[@patprop74]

The first tower, would be great for light painting photo perhaps

[@jaimeduncan6167]

Frat tips, I like to say that “location” is really a set of space time coordinates. Like the sun will hit that place in a particular time of the year.

[@timimoses5695]

Hello Kai. Thanks alot for this. Please I have a question..why don't I ever see an in-depth review of Nikon d800e. All I see is d750,d810 and d850. Please I'd appreciate a link if there is.

[@911Salvage]

I'm not into photography, but boy your videos are fun to watch.

[@c.augustin]

Some serious tips you gave here in your usual funny style - more of this, please! (And it shows that you're in England now … ;))

[@chandlerbing7458]

That Boke Effect On Your Vlogging Camera is Dope 🔥🔥😂😂

[@TheWatchChannelAU]

Can I just say that you are quite funny mate!! I would love to go on a day out shooting with you!....keep up the great content!!

[@zotyar6829]

Dear Kai, i need your help in choosing the best second lenses for my 80D, crop sensor Canon camera. Actually i already have the Sigma 18-35mm f/1,8 and i still have in focus the Canon EF70-200 f/4 IS USM and the Sigma 50-100 f/1,8 DC HSM. Which is the best from these 2 lenses? Thank you!

[@thelonegunmanpb5273]

Been following you for year, always awsome videos. keep up the great vids ;)

[@XtinaFerrari]

This video is my favourite: fun and informative!! I learned a lot. Thank youuuu!!

[@ffchkgrich]

Learn a lot from this video. Thank you.

[@tobiaswilcke9682]

Love the shot at @2:00 with the snail :D

[@dust1415]

[@ianblake8145]

Switched from digitalrev cant get enough kai!!!

[@Joker-qy2fv]

Just pulled the like button out of my screen and smashed it in again

[@dennycarroll1314]

[@insekt8623]

Wondering on the video capabilities of Panasonic g85

[@BartechTV]

Did they (DJI) not send you a Mavic Air? I was expecting to see a review from you on release day.

[@pathway1]

*1. Location, Location, Location:* Research it, Google it, Explore it. Go out and find new places to shoot. Also, Go back to old locations and shoot in different lighting conditions and seasons. *2. Plan You Shoot:* Allow enough time to set up your tripod, your camera, and find out which angles works best for you. Don't set up minutes before the sun sets. *2 1/2. Know your weather:* Check the weather so there aren't any unexpected surprises. *3. Bring ND Filters:* You need (Variable) ND Filters (Brands like Hoya, Syrp, etc). Why? Things just look better with a slower shutter speed. *4. Get A Good Tripod:* This doesn't include the free tripods you get when you buy a camera. Get one that doesn't wobble when you press down on it, has a hook for adding extra stability with baggage. *5. Have A Wide-Angle Lens:* It's very useful to get those dramatic leading lines. *6. Leading Lines:* Doesn't have to be straight, could be curved. It creates a path to the subject of the image. *7. Foreground Interest:* You can put "flashy" things, like people in your foreground. But, a typical landscape thing is to put a "non-flashy" thing in your foreground, like a gate, for interest. *8. More D.O.F (Depth of Field):* Have a smaller aperture. _Beginner Photographer tip-> Bigger "f/" (ex: f/11, f/16) number = smaller aperture._ However, don't make you aperture too small (like f/22) because this causes "Diffraction" which makes your photos look softer. (Kai would personally go to f/16, smallest) *9. Aerial Landscapes:* You can get dramatic, less common shots by "reaching for the frickin skies" with your drone. *9 1/2: Rule of Thirds* Treat it as a suggestion, not a "Rule". It can get you an aesthetically pleasing shot, but don't let it dictate your creativity. *10. Don't Be a Quitter:* Don't let the weather get to you. It doesn't always work for you. Even if you think the shoot is not working, take some shots anyway. You might be surprised what you get. If it's cloudy, try black and white. If it's dark, try a long exposure. But, expose properly... The photo, not you lol.

AsummusA hey, stick a spoiler alert on this, you jerk.

[@smokejc]

doing god's work.

[@philfyphil]

Dear oh dear, I think all that heavy metal has made you angry!

[@alma175w]

Solid, and amusing. Thank you for putting this one together.

[@drumsticksable1]

Thank God you are still alive. Can’t stand the new hosts at drtv but let bygones be bygones. All hail kai...

[@nicolasmoragomez2554]

I would really like to know which camera he used!

[@maximilliano.maximov]

What happens if I work on low shutter speed with no filter ? What minimum shutter speed can I shoot with no filter and still get a good result ?

[@daphilta]

I can't wait for more of your content. It's always better than any golden deep fried diarrhea! 😂 Thanks for posting.

[@lucasmartinez4248]

Great video! Thanks Kai!

[@SimpliAA]

@kai is a used Canon 6d body with 57000 shutter count worth a buy at 850usd? I am updating from a Canon 1200d. Is the 6d mark 1 still relevant and good for photography even today?

[@Ib90]

So which camera should I get under 1'200 for landscaping professional photos for income?

[@firionfantasy]

that areal shot. crispy 👌🏻

[@dcook9002]

I saw Leith Hill, Surrey - so close to home!

[@tdf488m]

Kai can you please tell all location in video. Many thanks

[@schoolboytown8184]

Please review the canon m100 and also a comparison between m100 and a6000

[@frazerasokan2912]

a6000 is better

[@cfoote416]

Thank you for all the hard work

[@DannySchneible]

Was any of the video shot with th 40mm? Cool video. I wish Nikon had a good pancake. Does anyone know of one?

[@deliamiu7455]

TopGear calling Kai: "...well, if you ever get passionate about cars give us a call, Jeremy needs to retire and Matt Leblanc can't fill the void..." 😅🤣...love your videos!

[@dokken555]

11:27 - what video is that?? cant seem to find

[@andytheghosthunter]

Leith Hill near Dorking me thinks for the 1st bit!

[@ItzEvolv]

Hi Kai, back at DigitalRev you've done a video about the Canon 70-200 f/2.8. I'd like to get one of these in a while, but find them quite expensive. Now I've seen people sell the Mk1 version for quite some less. Can you explain us the difference between the Mk1 and Mk2 version of this lens? Thanks!

[@listerine-pr5lt]

Moving Back from Hong Kong to UK seems to bring you a lot of cloudy days.

[@nettyvoyager6336]

great planning great location great rig and time and what does he do takes out the mobile phone ! oh my :P

[@wiliamyuhono555]

Would you make a review/ a comparison video about nikon D7500 vs its competitors ?

[@DiyEcoProjects]

Thanks Kia, that was very useful. All the best

[@acesofthesky]

This video reminds me how I got into photography thanks to the old digitalrev videos, I should go out with my camera again.

[@jayk8871]

Would you recommend the Sony 24-240mm or the Sony 18-105mm f4 G?
