Basic knowledge and skill sharing of SLR photography (2)

Operation skills of common outdoor difficult-to-handle lamps;

1, shot in the hot sun:

Usually this situation is not suitable for taking portraits and panoramic photos, because the light is too bright, and macro shooting is a very good opportunity.

Measure 2 1: It is suggested to shoot the scenery with a small aperture in the scorching sun, reduce the exposure compensation 1-2, reduce the sensitivity, and adjust the white balance in the sunny sky mode. It is better to have a hood.

2, night scene skills

Step 22: A stable tripod is essential. Try to focus on the bright scene manually, and then lock the focus for composition. Use less automatic white balance. Try it? Daytime? Or? Outdoor? Mode, forced not to flash, using aperture priority exposure is safer; It would be better if there was a range hood.

3, snow skills

Measure 23: Adjust the white balance manually for white objects, and strengthen the exposure compensation according to the white area 1-2. If a UV mirror is installed, blue color can be avoided.

4, rainy day skills:

Overexposure often occurs when shooting in rainy days. Generally, the method of reducing exposure is adopted to avoid the gloomy picture.

Measure 24: It is generally better to adopt a large aperture and high sensitivity, and the shutter speed is 1/30 seconds to 1/60 seconds, which can emphasize the dynamics when it rains; Choose gray walls, green trees, mountains, dark buildings, caves and other objects as the background, and the backlight or sidelight shooting effect is better.

5, indoor common ambient light operation skills:

Due to the limitation of lighting, the brightness of indoor light is much lower than that of outdoor light. The difference of indoor light source and color temperature, the entrance of natural light, the reflection of indoor walls and the presence or absence of obstructions in lighting places will directly affect the nature of indoor light and make it more complicated.

6. Other skills of landscape photography:

1) Use of tripod

? You can take landscape photos without a tripod, but most successful landscape photos are taken with a tripod. It is an important basic skill to master the use of tripod to ensure stability, safety and correct position in the wind. ?

2) Understanding of exposure control effect

? Most photographers have mastered the setting and focusing of shutter speed and aperture, but they have never fully understood and understood one thing: aperture and shutter not only allow you to take clear photos with correct exposure, but also are important creative tools.

In landscape photography, it is necessary to test and explore the creative potential of aperture, shutter and focal length control to build confidence and enhance understanding. ?

3) Another way to shoot places of interest.

The 25th trick: Take unusual photos at the scenic spot, and let the scenic spot set off your story (theme).

Sports and close-up photography skills

Proper use of shutter can make moving images more attractive. Most photographers fully show the sense of movement through images, prompting the beauty of strength, speed and life. Close-up is an artistic expression in photography. Use parts to convey information and details to explain the theme. The difficulty lies in the topic selection. People with quick thinking and action can use this simple technique to render the theme, arouse association and get more excellent works.

Dynamic photos are the art of shutter.

Fast shutter uses: high-speed shutter solidification movement

Step 26: Shoot more intense motion pictures. It is suggested to take an image at the climax of the action, pay attention to the expression of the subject (character), and the light should be bright. Usually, those high-speed moving scenes with unclear features are suitable for fast shutter.

Use a slow shutter: A slow shutter produces motion.

Twenty-seventh trick: combine the slow shutter with the follow-up shooting technology or zoom shooting technology to make the moving subject clearly visible on the screen, and the movement of the subject can form a strong contrast with the passing line on the background or the radial lines around the subject.

Digital macro shooting skills

Step 28: When shooting, carefully select the position of the focal plane, put the details that need to be shown on a plane as much as possible, and make this plane parallel to the back of the camera.

Twenty-ninth trick: Control the direction and quality of light, and try to avoid direct sunlight when shooting macro, which will easily lead to Gao Fancha and erase all details.

Techniques of telephoto close-up shooting

Measure 30: Use a high shutter speed (preferably higher than 1/200 seconds) when shooting, and use a tripod when the light is insufficient. If the subjects are animals and people, it is necessary to highlight their close-up expressions. If the subject is a still life and highlights its distinctive features, such as a mountain illuminated by morning light, we will shoot the part of it illuminated by morning light.
