My Lumix LX7 is a great tool for photographing the subway. It has a fast lens (f1.4) while the camera body is light, compact, flexible, and discrete.<\/p>\n

For my New York City Subway photography exercise; I set the ISO to 200, the white balance to \u2018auto\u2019, set the exposure to dial to \u2018A\u2019 (for aperture priority, meaning I manually select the f-stop and the camera selects the appropriate corresponding shutter speed for optimal exposure ) and open the f-stop to near it\u2019s widest setting.<\/p>\n

The Lumix LX7 allows me turn off all the sounds and lights, so when I release the shutter nothing beeps or flashes.<\/p>\n

I exposed both RAW and Jpeg files simultaneously. While the camera\u2019s automatic exposure was close, I needed made minor adjustments to contrast and white balance in post-processing using Lightroom.<\/p>\n

Typically this is necessary to bring the highlights under control while opening up (lightening) the shadow areas to make detail more visible.<\/p>\n
