X-T1 Advance Modes: Lake Como in Miniature
The X-T1 has several advance modes which allows the user to select different effects. One of the effects is miniature mode, which adds top and bottom blur for a diorama or miniature effect.
The first image below was taken during our 3-hour boat trip around the lake and the second is standard image shot from the same location to show the difference.
And here is another example, the first shot was shot in ADV mode and the second is the straight image of the scene.
Other X-T1 advance modes include -
Dynamic Tone
Creates a fantasy effect by altering the tonal reproduction of the scene.
High Key
Enhances brightness and reduces contrast to lighten tonal reproduction.
Low Key
Creates uniformly dark tones with emphasised highlights.
Partial colour (Red / Orange / Yellow / Green / Blue / Purple)
Retains one selected original colour and changes the rest of the photo to black and white.
Soft Focus
Creates a look that is evenly soft throughout the whole image.
Pop colour
Emphasises contrast and colour saturation.
Toy Camera
Creates shaded borders as if you were taking a photo on a toy camera.
I will be reporting on the other modes that are available with ADV selected on the X-T1 in future blogs. To be honest these modes are just for fun, I don't see any commercial use for these images. However they do provide an interesting alternative to the standard landscape and I quite like the effect for a personal project.
