What is the holy trinity of lenses?

The lens trinity is a set of three zoom lenses that cover a wide range of focal lengths, from wide-angle to telephoto.

Typically, the lens trinity consists of a 16-35mm f/2.8, a 24-70mm f/2.8, and a 70-200mm f/2.8 lens.

These lenses are designed to deliver high image quality, fast autofocus, and low light performance.

How to get more dynamic range in your images – Color luminance

dynamic range colour luminance

Find the Colour Luminance setting in Lightroom or Camera RAW under the HSL/Grayscale dropdown panel.

6. Colour luminance

Colour luminance settings can give you control over dynamic range. In Lightroom and Camera Raw this can be done with the HSL/Color Panel’s Luminance tab. We can either use the sliders or drag over the image with the target tool. Darkening the blues here dramatically improves the sky

Using the histogram to avoid clipping your highlights and shadows

What the Histogram looks like

Histogram example

Histogram example

Shadows, Midtones, Highlights

Far left to 0 indicates how much shadow detail is present
Far right to 255 indicates how much highlight detail is present
The midway point indicates how much midtone detail is present

Anything beyond 255 is completely white with no detail present. Anything below 0 is completely black with no detail present.
You can also think of these as colours:
Shadows = Black or dark colours
Midtones = Grey or muted colours
Highlights = White or bright colours

The height of each line represents the amount of pixels in your image that contain that tone. So for example, the big peak shows there are a lot of pixels containing the tonal value. Notice also that on the far left there is an area with no lines. This means that there are no pixels with those tonal values. So there are no dark shadows from 0 to about 10.
