Douglas E. Welch<p>This is the one camera setting you should change for perfectly exposed photos via DIY Photography [Shared]</p><p>If you take photos in the forest or take landscapes in the sunset, there are areas where the shadows are pitch black or the highlights are blown out. You just can’t get it right in camera (ask me how I know). Unlike our eyes, cameras have a limited dynamic range, so they can’t see all the detail in both bright and dark areas. But in his recent video, photographer&nbsp;Christian Möhrle&nbsp;guides you through the one setting that will help you deal with this. It’s&nbsp;Auto Exposure Bracketing (AEB)&nbsp;and it can be your secret weapon for conquering challenging lighting situations.</p><p><a href="https://welchwrite.com/blog/2025/06/26/this-is-the-one-camera-setting-you-should-change-for-perfectly-exposed-photos-via-diy-photography-shared-2/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">welchwrite.com/blog/2025/06/26</span><span class="invisible">/this-is-the-one-camera-setting-you-should-change-for-perfectly-exposed-photos-via-diy-photography-shared-2/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/lesson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lesson</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>education</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/learning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>learning</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/bracket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bracket</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/hdr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hdr</span></a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/shared" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>shared</span></a></p>
