Hi,

Can share???

For Waterfall. (my method)
1) I got the 45-52mm lens adaptor for the Z2 and fit on a ND filter (Poloriser also can) to darken the scene. Sometimes zooming in from far also can.

2) Use a tripod

3) Switch to manual mode. Adjust the aperture to a higher setting. eg 4.0, 5.6, 8.0 etc. Shutter speed set to at least longer then I think 1/60sec ... Forget liao but u have to try and see. Sometimes depends on how bright the area is.

4) Main idea is to let in lesser light to the cam so you can drag a longer shutter speed to get the movement effect.


For nightscene. (no fix method)
1) Set the white balance
2) use manual setting. Aperture most of the time set at 8. Shutter use T mode sometimes.

Actually, both methods of mine quite subjective. You need to play around with the cam at during lighting to understand better. Good luck.

Oh ya, and switch off the noise reduction setting. Do no justice to the photo most of the time.
