Landscape Photography for Beginners: Mastering Light and Composition

You don't need the most expensive equipment to get started. A digital camera (DSLR or mirrorless), a sturdy tripod, and a lens suited to landscapes (wide-angle) are a good starting point. Optional tools like ND filters, polarizers, and remote shutters can expand your creative options. Perrin also shares lightweight packing tips for shooting on the go.
