Mobile phone background blur photography skills

Lead: Many white people may think that taking a hazy and beautiful background blur effect is one of the performances of a person who can take pictures, and even think that the background blur benefits from the high-end degree of the camera, so it is necessary to use a SLR. In fact, even if the photographer has mastered the method, it is not difficult to shoot the background blur effect, and even a small card machine or mobile phone can shoot a good blur effect.

Large aperture

If white people know some names related to photography, they will associate them with the blurring of the background. Big aperture? By adjusting the aperture value on the SLR camera, you can easily create a shallow depth of field effect with a blurred background. In the past, due to technical limitations, the aperture performance of the general card machine was not ideal, and it could only reach about F3.5. The inherent impression of poor performance of the card machine was deeply left in everyone's concept. In fact, many card machines and even mobile phones can adjust the aperture size, and the large aperture is no longer exclusive to SLR. Small cards or mobile phones can also take a blurred background through a large aperture.

Using Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II, a new card machine introduced by Canon this year, the lens aperture is F 1.8-F2.8, and the background blur effect can be easily taken. (Canon G7 XII is priced at 4349 yuan)

This is a dessert made with OPPO R9 Plus. Except for the strawberry in the middle, the background and foreground are blurred by OPPO's F2.0 large aperture. (OPPO R9 Plus is priced at 3299 yuan)

In addition, the thousand yuan machine can also have a good performance. This is the pizza I took with my glory 7i mobile phone. It has a large aperture of F2.0, and it can present a hierarchical relationship between reality and reality just by touching the focus position. (Glory 7i price 1045 yuan)

Large zoom

In addition to a larger aperture, the background blur can be achieved by increasing the focal length. For SLR, the longer the lens, the more blurred the effect. The lens of the card machine and the mobile phone itself is limited by volume, so it can't be done? Thick and long? But we can change the focal length through the optical zoom function brought by the card machine and the mobile phone. The larger the zoom ratio, the more obvious the blur effect.

With the change of focal length, the degree of background blur will also change.

It is worth noting that in addition to optical zoom, some card machines and mobile phones may also have the ability of digital zoom to further expand the zoom range, but with the increase of digital zoom magnification, the image quality will also decline. At the same time, no matter what zoom mode, the aperture value of the camera may change regardless of the focal length, so the zoom distance can be adjusted according to the actual situation.

Use macros

Speaking of the relationship between distance and background blur, the closer the better! Under the condition of meeting the closest focal length of the lens, try to get close to the object, and with the help of the macro function of the card machine or mobile phone, it is easier to take photos with obvious background blur effect. However, this function is not very feasible when shooting portraits, but shooting small objects, such as flowers and small toys, will have a very obvious effect.

Using the macro mode of Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II, the stamens and petals of the photographed flowers appear distinct, and the background blur effect is obvious. (Canon G7 XII is priced at 4349 yuan)

Use the macro mode of Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II to shoot flowers.

These are three good ways to shoot blurred background with card machine or mobile phone, namely, using large aperture, zoom and macro. These functions are common self-contained functions of general card machines and mobile phones, and white people with card machines or mobile phones can also play with them easily.
