Canon G7X Tips - PART TWO

Tip #2:

Use the built-in ND Filter

The Canon #g7xmarkii has a built-in ND filter that can be useful when you want to achieve a shallow depth of field or use a slower shutter speed in bright light.

Some tips on using this👇:

- the PURPOSE of the ND filter is to reduce the amount of light that enters the lens. This is most useful on bright sunny days.

- you must be in the right SHOOTING MODE to use the ND filter: in manual mode, aperture priority, or shutter priority

- WHEN TO USE? use in bright conditions such as sunny days or near reflective surfaces like water or snow. It can also be used when shooting with a wider aperture to achieve a shallow depth of field which can help create motion blur effects. This is perfect for videos as well.

- BE AWARE when your done using it in brighter situations to turn it off so other images taken in more accommodating lighting situations aren’t affected.

How Turn it On:

Select the Functions Set button ( Q set) on the camera dial.

In the bottom left corner hit the ND button and select on or you can use auto but it’s best to manually control when can.
