Nikon Z8 (Firmware 2.0) - PRO Settings for Landscape Photography - FREE Download

What Are the Best Settings for Landscape Photography?

I’ve been using Nikon cameras since 2006 and over the years I’ve learnt the language behind the Nikon menu options and which settings I always apply to a new camera. So, when I received my Nikon Z8 I already knew most of the settings I would apply straight away. There were of course some new settings with the Z8 that my previous cameras didn’t have, but I quickly learnt which settings applied to me and my workflow.

As I went through the menu system of the Nikon Z8 configuring the settings for how I take landscape photographs I thought it would be useful if I shared them with you.

Like many things in photography, everyone works slightly differently, and there is often more than one way to achieve the same thing, so the settings I describe in this video are the BEST settings for ME, and the way I work. So, I’m not saying these are the settings you have to apply to get the results you want, but hopefully they’ll give you some ideas and tips on how to configure your Nikon camera. Even if you don’t have a Nikon Z8, many of these settings will apply to other Nikon Z cameras and some Nikon DSLR cameras.

In this video I will take you through the best settings I use for landscape photography to help me get the most out of my Nikon Z8. I’ve also created a reference PDF file with my settings in it so you can look at them in a more leisurely way. Details on how to access that are further down this blog post.

My FREE Landscape Photography Locations Map

A Map of My Blog

When I started this blog back in 2016, I committed myself to publishing regular posts of my photography adventures. I’m proud to say that I have kept that commitment and now my blog is packed full of stories, adventures, photographs, and videos.

With so much content for even me to navigate I decided to create a custom Google Map with pins in all the locations I have photographed and written about. Once it was complete it occurred to me that it would a wonderful thing to share with the people that regularly visit my website!

In the video below I talk more about my map of landscape photography locations and how to use it. So, if you’ve ever wanted to know where to shoot on Dartmoor, or you are just looking for some photography inspiration I hope you will find the map useful.
