Tips For Taking Better Pictures
We’ve got a few tips for you to help snap the best pictures possible across the beautiful open-world Horizon 4 provides.
Have the right settings
The game doesn’t have the most optimal camera settings by default. Here are our go-to settings for taking beautiful pictures in Forza Horizon 4
| Setting | Value |
| Exposure | 65 |
| Contrast | 60 |
| Color | 55 |
| Brightness | 45 |
| Focus | 100 |
| Aperture | 15 |

Take photos at the right time
Your photos will turn out better if you take them in the early morning or late afternoon.
That doesn’t mean you can’t get good photos during the night. There is just a lot more to consider when it’s dark.
Camera positioning
Position the camera so the light is hitting the opposite side of the car.
Try to avoid too much clutter directly in the background (trees, streetlights, signs, etc).
You can also turn off your driver for static shots if you prefer.
