Can Samsung NX 300 Capture Waterfalls?

Some things are easy to photograph – a beautiful sunset, a smiling child, an antique building. Samsung’s NX300 has 14 different scene-specific modes, like sunset mode, night mode, and fireworks mode. But one mode that we particularly love is the Waterfall mode. This COOL feature helps capture that elusive subject – moving water. So let’s explore, and along the way, we’ll give you tips on how you can use it to create various interesting effects with moving water.

You may have thought that waterfall mode could only be used for taking shots of waterfalls. But, in fact, you can take great pictures of rivers, lakes, or beaches in this mode. The fastest way to choose this setting is to adjust your NX300 mode dial to “S,” then touching “Fn,” and selecting “Waterfall,” and that’s it! You’re ready to shoot!

With the waterfall mode, the movement of water can be captured quickly and moving water can look like a veil of vapor. This effect is shadowy and ethereal, and definitely adds a unique quality to your photos!
