Do you like hiking? if love hiking and photography Here are some tips for who want to try photographing in the mountains at night :
Equipment
Because shooting night including one special category of photographing so may require also some ancillary equipment to produce good photographs .
Camera has a manual mode facility needed to be able to capture the images with the low light quality . If there is no manual mode facility had to be more creative with existing lighting or flash light but rely on the results of the standard. pocket camera that has a manual mode or facility or class of entry-level DSLR is enough really for a used shooting night.
Tripod is also a supporter for photographing the night . Due to low lighting so sometimes we have to use a very low speed . If it feels to carry a tripod tripod can rely on nature , such as rocks , tree limbs , etc. . But it is our weakness will be more limited in doing a photo shoot .
Cable release we can also take it if we really intend to capture a star trail . Because it can help to lock the camera shutter speed according to what we want .
Flash, Default camera flash for night shooting is actually quite , but if you want to be more creative results we can enter the external flash . External flash is typically used when shooting night by inserting objects into the composition of our essential .
The battery is also one that needs support . Especially in cold weather the battery will quickly drop . Battery backup is not used should be wrapped in a warm cloth .

 Adjusting the Camera Settings
Focus . Because the dark night so that the auto focus on the long lens will usually seek the proper focus and often misses . Tod to manual focus mode and set at the desired focus . If no object is near , can use the manual focus to focus unlimited . The easiest way , set the lens in the direction of unlimited ( a ~ ) and slide it slightly in the opposite direction
Diafgrama . Poor lighting conditions require aperture wide enough to be able to produce results with time is not too long . As more and aperture width less time is used to capture light that enters the camera sensor . Lens with a wide aperture ( f > 2.8 ) will be very useful . But if the existence of kits lens with f/3.5 aperture is enough to wear on the mountain shooting night.
 
Speed ​​. Time spent in photographing the night usually will be longer than that for bright daylight conditions . Often we are forced to use a speed of more than 1 second - 30 seconds . If to capture the trajectory of ( star trail ) can sometimes even 2-10 minutes ( depending on needs )
ISO . ISO camera settings for shooting conditions were varied ranging from 100 - 1600 ( if the camera can now be up to 3200-6400 ) . There is no default rules , depending on what kind of picture we want results . The smaller the ISO , it takes a longer time , or aperture diaphragm should be larger , but the images not too much noise . While using high ISO , we can shorten the time or reduce the aperture , with the shortage of the images will arise.
