Correct shooting posture of SLR camera for beginners

1, basic machine holding technology

For digital SLR cameras, the human body is not the most stable support, so it is necessary to learn some basic movements to improve the stability when taking pictures. Stand still and relax, feet apart, elbows clamped. Hold the camera with both hands, and one hand holds the lens in a ring shape to help zoom and focus. Exhale before pressing the shutter can relax you. Try not to take pictures when your elbows are far away from your body, your hands can't be kept on your mobile phone or your body is twisted, which will affect the clarity of your photos.

2, prone position

The prone position is very suitable for taking scenery or macro photos. A more compact body posture helps to reduce camera shake. Remember to make both elbow joints contract as much as possible and support them on a level ground. Turn your body a little, and you will lose your stability, because you don't get any support from the ground. Finally, be sure to remember to look at the ground before you go down.

Step 3: Standing posture

Legs can support the weight of the body well, and are most commonly used in weddings or news photography. The key is to stay stable and relaxed-remember that you are not playing karate! If you bend forward and stand, your body will naturally sway, and the final photo will be blurred, which may also lead to spinal diseases.

4. Half kneeling posture

Half kneeling will lower your shooting height, but it can provide better support for the camera-remember to put your elbow on your knee. Also, take a few conscious deep breaths before pressing the shutter and keep your shoulders relaxed. The semi-squat posture with legs bent at the same time is the worst, which will make your body nervous and the camera shake badly.
