How to take pictures of Canon M3?

Pay attention to two aspects:

First, camera parameter settings

① Switch to AV file and set a circle of F5.6 or smaller, ISO 100-400;

(2) When shooting with a focal length of more than 50mm, it is recommended that ordinary cameras turn on zoom shooting for more than 3 times;

(3) It is recommended to use the central key average metering+single point focusing, and the human eye focuses.

Second, shooting skills

① Try to choose solid colors such as gray and white as the background, and it is best to wear dark clothes;

(2) Put the head of the character in the middle of the picture to shoot, and cut it later to prevent the head from being deformed;

3 shooting slightly sideways;

(4) shooting a three-dimensional view of the face with the light from the side;

⑤ Add a light source to the front to shoot the light spot in the pupil, which makes the eyes more radiant.

Use skills:

1, shoot against the light first, not necessarily in the same direction (in the light), sometimes trying to shoot the subject with your back to the sun will shoot another flavor.

2. When shooting still life: For example, when shooting leaves, we can shoot on the other side of the leaves, and use sunlight to penetrate the leaves to make the leaves clear and highlight the texture.

3. When shooting portraits/animals: Backlight shooting can also preheat the photos by using yellow-white balance, adjusting to a higher K number, using flash white balance or shooting directly at sunset, but it is necessary to control the exposure or supplementary light to prevent the protagonist from turning black completely.

4, shooting shadows, when shooting sunlight, the sun itself does not have to be the protagonist, in fact, when there is light, there is a shadow, and shadows can sometimes increase interest and provide more imagination.

5, shooting silhouettes, sometimes the protagonist will become very dark when shooting against the light, we need to pay special attention to the outline and shape of the protagonist, but also pay attention to whether the background can highlight the silhouette, and further understand how to shoot a good silhouette.
