What should junior photographers be equipped with?

Cameras are divided into manual cameras and automatic cameras according to their operation modes.

1. Manual camera features: manual focusing, manual metering, manual adjustment, and compensation according to the subject and background brightness (black, white, 18% gray). Even if there is no electricity, you can finish shooting manually. The failure rate is low, but the mobility is insufficient.

2. Features of automatic camera: The exposure and focus are automatically calculated and adjusted by the camera, which can be changed to manual mode as needed, with strong maneuverability and simple operation, but the failure rate is relatively high. In order to avoid the influence of battery exhaustion on shooting, you need to prepare a spare battery.

What kind of lens can be divided into fixed focus lens and zoom lens? For the same focal length, the larger the maximum aperture, the larger the aperture and the higher the price.

1, macro macro: used for local close-up, close-up and large-scale shooting, and can be used in ecological, insect and other professional fields.

2. Wide-angle lens 17—35mm: It emphasizes the sense of vastness, exaggerates the foreground and has a long depth of field, which is suitable for capturing the subject.

3, standard lens 35-70 mm: the most commonly used lens, the coverage is closest to vision.

4. Medium telephoto lens 80- 135 mm: it has a sense of spatial compression, deep scenery, strong maneuverability and flexible operation.

5. Telescope head 200—500mm: large size, poor mobility, large aperture, deep scenery and relatively prominent theme.

6. Fisheye lens: special effect of viewing angle 180.

When buying film, we should consider the requirements of color temperature, size, color sensitivity and sensitivity, and pay special attention to sensitivity in daily use. When shooting indoors, it is best to use films with high sensitivity, such as 200 degrees and 400 degrees, which can capture the atmosphere of the scene with natural light; Even if you use a flash, you can ensure that the background has a good performance and will not be black. When taking photos at home and in conference rooms, you should try to use high-sensitivity film. 100 degree film has moderate sensitivity, which can meet the requirements of indoor and outdoor shooting and granularity, and is most commonly used. Films with low sensitivity, such as 64 degrees or 50 degrees, have fine particles and are mostly selected by professional photographers, but they are inconvenient to use in places with insufficient light.

What accessories are used?

Filters: UV mirror or sky mirror, polarizer (PL, CPL), medium gray subtracter, black and white photographic filter.

Tripod: It can be divided into heavy, light and miniature.

Accessories: camera bag, camera vest, cable, flash, exposure meter, film picker, gray card.

How to operate

1, what equipment to buy and what equipment to bring, everyone should do according to the specific situation and the nature of shooting.

2. When shooting outdoors, take the most familiar, convenient and functional camera as the main camera. If the economic ability and physical strength permit, bring a spare camera to prevent the camera from "striking" at an important juncture. If you need to install more than two kinds of negatives at the same time, you need a camera.

3. Shooting a successful work should have: keen observation, quick action, accurate judgment, flexible mind, skillful technology and deep understanding of social environment and shooting theme. At the same time, it also includes the selection of shooting position, angle, distance, composition and exposure conditions.

How to maintain

1, balloon blowing: remove large particles of dust or dirt. Avoid blowing the curtain directly. When blowing the lens, the mirror is facing down and the ball is facing up.

2. Don't put toilet paper or anything easy to lose hair in the pocket of the camera vest. Brush lightly when cleaning with a brush to avoid scratching or hair loss.

3. Suede or lens wiping cloth is mainly used to wipe the body and lens. Try to avoid wiping the lens surface and use antistatic and lint-free materials.

4. Equipped with lens cleaning liquid, lens wiping paper and lens wiping pen.

5, long-term storage, photographic equipment should be placed in a drying box or electronic moistureproof box.

6, cameras and equipment idle for a long time, should take out the battery. Manual fuselage should release the shutter button, and automatic fuselage should be closed.

Photography looks easy, but if you want to make good works, you must work hard from two aspects: photography technology and photography art.

I. Technical requirements

An excellent photographic work must first be achieved through photographic technology, mainly through lens selection, position determination, reasonable light distribution, accurate focusing and correct exposure, such as choosing a wide-angle lens to expand the range of viewing angle and depth of field, using a large aperture to highlight the subject image, and determining the exposure according to the specific situation and performance intention of the subject. This requires photographers to have solid knowledge of photography technology and rich shooting experience.

Second, the artistic requirements

1. A photographic work with a distinct theme should have a clear theme, which can tell a story, exchange an idea, or express an emotion, and give the viewer feelings, associations and inspirations until a * * * sound is generated. The distinctive theme is the soul and core of photographic works.

2. The main body highlights that a good work should have visual impact and can quickly attract the attention of the viewer to your work. This is to express the theme through a theme that can attract the attention of the audience. The subject should be the focus of the whole picture, which can be people, things or things.

3. The picture is concise. In order to highlight the theme, only those things that are essential to express the theme are taken, and other things that scatter the theme are excluded or compressed to make the picture focused, concise and lively. "Painting is addition and photography is subtraction" refers to this truth.

4. The form of beauty Any art pursues beauty, and photography is no exception. Photographic works with formal aesthetic feeling can attract people's attention and let the audience get beautiful enjoyment and pleasure from appreciation. The aesthetic feeling in photography is mainly realized through the collocation and combination of colors, the coordination of tone and shadow, the clever use of projection and the arrangement and processing of light.
