Which is better, news photography, Nikon or Canon?

Many years ago, when I was doing propaganda in my office, I sat opposite my desk in the office. It was our two professional photographers, one using Nikon, the other using Canon, and the other using Nikon. After I left, another colleague of mine took over my job. When I went back in the first half of this year, two were still a Nikon and a Canon. Nikon upgraded to D8 10, and Canon upgraded to 5D3. There is also a propaganda place in the unit, the trade union. Minolta was used by trade unions at that time. I don't know what to use now It's not Sony, is it? Ha ha.

At my present job, I will still go to some large-scale activities. Then, I found that the photography colleagues of all units participating in the activity were also Nikon Canon.

The significance of telling these stories is that Canon and Nikon are really neck and neck, especially in the more professional business of news photography, which is basically equal. In some large-scale activities or sports events, look at those long guns and short guns. There is white in black and black in white. The black one is Nikon (I won't argue with you if you want to say Sony, anyway, I don't think there are many), and the white one is Canon.

But as far as news photography is concerned, the requirements for image quality may not be as harsh as the scenery. News photography pays attention to the importance of content, first of all, it must be photographed, and then it is clear, composition, character expression and so on. And it is the reliability, operability and battery life of the camera.

In terms of reliability, Canon is similar to Nikon. Nikon is slightly inferior in high sense, slightly more tolerant, slightly stronger in focus (which has always been Canon's strong point) and slightly better in control (probably because Nikon has been used all the time, I always think Nikon is more convenient). Nikon has another advantage over Canon, which is anti-manufacturing, ha.

Is this a coincidence? Two famous periodicals of Volkswagen Daily, one is Canon and the other is Nikon.

I really can't say whether it's Canon or Nikon. Anyway, at this stage, both of them are fine, ha.

I am the south of the south, welcome to pay attention.

Now the comparison between Nikon and Canon seems to have never stopped, so it is precisely because this question about which is better or worse between Nikon and Canon has always been a topic of discussion, and it also shows from the side that the two brands of SLR cameras are neck and neck.

Specific to the subject matter of news photography, Nikon and Canon have been arguing all the year round. At various major conferences, activities and sports events, reporters will gather together and see all kinds of long guns and short guns, most of which are Nikon and Canon, which are basically equally divided.

Because they are easy to distinguish, their telephoto lenses are different in color. Nikon is black and Canon is white. At first glance, the proportion of black and white shots in the reporter group is quite clear.

For news photography, speed is the most important. This speed includes many aspects, such as reaction speed, continuous shooting speed, focusing speed, the return speed of the flash, the speed controlled by the fuselage and so on. The requirements are very high. It is very likely to miss the news moment in a few tenths of a second. So SLR camera is still the most suitable model for news photography. Nikon and Canon's top flagship SLR is designed for news photography. Nikon d5 and Canon 1dx series are such professional news models. Both of them have excellent news photography ability, and they are undoubtedly kings in speed response and have their own characteristics in image quality. But news photography is always more important than shooting well. I really can't say who is better than who irresponsibly. It's just that personal habits are different. These two cameras can't say who is better at all.

If there is any difference between Nikon and Canon's top flagship SLR, it is some difference.

First of all, Nikon and Canon operate in different ways. Nikon needs to adjust the parameters with both hands, and the adjustment speed is fast, but it needs to be operated with both hands. Canon can complete the parameter setting with one hand, but it needs a certain degree of proficiency.

Secondly, flagship machine Nikon usually has more optical focusing points and a larger focusing ev range than Canon, while Canon's real-time focusing ability is better than Nikon, which is substantially different.

Thirdly, Nikon's dynamic range is slightly better than Canon's, and Canon's jpeg direct photo color adjustment is more pleasing.

Finally, Canon's video shooting ability is better than Nikon's.

In fact, in news photography, as mentioned above, the debate between Nikon and Canon is expected to continue.

Speaking of news photography, hehe, no one is better than a mobile phone, no matter what you are "Konka"!

News photography, the first thing to pay attention to is fast, fast is the soul of today's news reports! Please take a look at this "hard evidence":

"On the evening of June 5, 2065438+05, the cruise ship" Oriental Star "was completely salvaged from Mazhou waters in Jianli section of the Yangtze River in Hubei Province. Rescuers preparing to enter the cabin for cleaning and search and rescue stood on the shore waiting for work arrangements. (Photo by Changjiang Daily Chen Zhuo) "

This photo was taken with a mobile phone and won the photojournalism award of that year.

While others were still busy shooting long guns and short guns, Chen Zhuo took this solemn scene with his mobile phone and sent the picture to the editorial department at the first time. The whole world witnessed the process of the Eastern Star hanging out of the water at the first time.

The event is sad and the picture is beautiful.

The following is the award-winning record of this report.

On the afternoon of June 5th, Chen Zhuo, a photojournalist of Changjiang Daily, took the above pictures with his mobile phone, and immediately posted them on the official Weibo of Changjiang Daily, which caused a lot of forwarding and attracted the attention of the central media such as People's Daily and Wall Street Journal. Chen Zhuo won the Changjiang Daily Editor-in-Chief Award with a reward of 30,000 yuan.

It doesn't matter what machine is used in news photography. What is important is how to send live news as soon as possible.

As for Nikon Canon, as far as performance is concerned, no matter what it does, it is comparable. For news photography with relatively low quality requirements, either SLR of the two companies is fully qualified. Do you think it is necessary to discuss it in depth?

News photography should give priority to brands with rich camera lenses.

In case of inaccessible scenes, such as high-rise fire, it may be necessary to zoom in with a 500mm lens to shoot.

I'm afraid there is no other brand of news photography except Canon camera.

A controversial topic. Jenny. Jani? Almost since the appearance of digital SLR, there has been a debate about who should put it first. I don't know whether it's the hype of the merchants or whether the users really want to give Jani and Jia Ni a level to guide and satisfy the correctness of their purchase.

Look at the appearance first, say nothing, and feel for yourself.

As for the choice of Canon or Nikon for news photography, this analogy can only be made between cameras of the same level. Take the flagship "Machine Emperor" as an example.

Judging from the above basic technical parameters, it should be said that Nikon at the same price is slightly better.

It should be said that the two are inseparable, and they are both competent candidates for news reporting.

If you are still hesitating, just look at what cameras the old players in major sports events in the world are using, and you will understand.

The above views are for reference only.

It is the comparison between Nikon and Canon. Actually, it doesn't matter which home you choose. The two men have been neck and neck. As the two giants in the industry, they have been competing and comparing. The top flagship is updated every four years. At present, Canon is 1dx2 and Nikon is d5.

These two films are impeccable top sports and news machines. They are excellent in focusing and continuous shooting. Canon's operation is completely different from Nikon's operation, and the side focus direction is opposite. Nikon needs to cooperate with both hands when adjusting parameters, which is convenient and efficient. Canon can complete the adjustment with one hand, but it needs to have a high proficiency in the machine.

Whether using Nikon or Canon, the machine is just a tool, and those who can make good use of this tool to take valuable news photos are all good machines.

In the field of news, although the requirements for equipment are very high, what is more needed is your predictive ability, such as when the national leaders shake hands and which player runs to the finish line the fastest, which requires very good predictive ability.

So don't ask which camera is good, as long as it is convenient to use.

News photography is a major field of competition for Canon and Nikon. It is really unclear who is good and who is bad. After all, the person behind the camera is the most important. However, due to the different preferences of photographers, the performance of cameras is different, which may be accidental, but some trends can also be seen. The annual Lotus Award has just been announced, and there will be statistics on the use of cameras by award-winning photographers. This can be used as a reference.

The following is a statistical chart of the equipment used by the 20 17 award-winning photographers, which details the types and brands of equipment used by the award-winning works.

In the field of professional news photography, Canon still has absolute advantages compared with other brands, and it is not surprising that Nikon ranks second. In terms of specific models, * * * has nine award-winning works shot by Canon 5D Mark III and five other works shot by Canon 1DX. Although mirrorless cameras are in the limelight in the field of mass consumption, professional news photographers will still use SLR cameras, which is estimated to remain for a long time.

As can be seen from the above picture, Nikon has become the biggest winner. Among the three machines with the highest usage rate, two are from Nikon, namely Nikon D5 and D8 10, and the third is Canon's EOS 5D Mark III. Nikon is also a leader in the ranking of manufacturers. It can be said that Nikon made a turnaround.

On the whole, however, before 20 17, it was basically Canon's world, but on 20 17, Nikon was in the limelight for a while because of the listing of D850, which led to a large number of people, but it is estimated that the proportion will change with the decline of D850 popularity.

If you want to start with photographic equipment, you don't have to entangle the brand, just choose according to your own preferences.

Both brands work reliably. I prefer to use Canon. The reason why I don't like using Nikon camera is that Nikon can't lock the focal length (wide-angle to medium-focus) when the flash can't be used in dark environment. Fortunately, I was afraid that I couldn't finish the task, so I brought two Canon, EOS50E Eye Control Focus (28- 135) and EOS3(24-70). All aspects are well controlled and the task is completed with high quality.

When it feels cloudy, gray and light ratio is weak, Canon imaging analysis is better, especially for landscapes and portraits.

When combined with a 5D body, the original lens can be used perfectly. Especially when recording interviews, it never gets stuck.

Just as good.
