Fujifilm Z900EXR Landscape Photography Detailed Analysis

Manual Exposure Mode

A correct exposure of a landscape shot is very important. Even though modern digital cameras features advanced algorithms to calculate the right exposure, they still may fail some difficult conditions. Manual exposure mode in these conditions helps a lot in order to achieve correct exposure.

Manual Focus Mode

With the manual focus mode, you can make fine adjustments to have the perfect focus.

28 mm - Good Wide Angle Coverage

Even though there are very good examples of landscapes photos taken with tele lenses, most of the landscape photos are taken with wide angle lenses.

Average Resolution Sensor: 16.0MP

Fujifilm Z900EXR's 16.0MP resolution is not ideal for landscape photography but you can still achieve large prints with good framing and technique.

No RAW shooting capability

RAW files contains much more color information compared to JPEGs, and gives you more room for post processing without significant quality loss. They provide wider dynamic range and option to recover shadow and highlight clipping to some degree.

Small 1/2" (6.4 x 4.8 mm) sensor

Fujifilm Z900EXR's small sensor struggles in low light situations compared to larger sensors.

No Environmental Sealings

Landscape photographs are taken outdoors and you should be prepared for all kind of weather conditions.
