How can I learn photography well?

I majored in this major, so I'll give you some suggestions according to my own ideas.

First, as soon as we entered the school, the teacher told us that we must have passion to learn anything well. If you want to have passion, you must really like it and be willing to pay everything for it. (Of course, those who can do this are obsessed masters. )

Second, learning photography requires a lot of upfront investment. First of all, cameras, film (see article 3 for why film should be used), and a lot of money should be prepared for going out for sightseeing.

Third, learn photography without using digital machines. When we were studying photography, the teacher suggested that we use black and white film instead of digital. After all, the film machine is the foundation, and you have to learn everything before you can use it.

Fourth, learn the theory first, not that you need to learn it thoroughly, but at least you should know some basic knowledge first. Then it's okay to take more photos with the camera (if there is a shortage of funds, it is recommended to use a digital machine. Because after all, I usually just practice framing and conception, just looking for a feeling).

Fifth, find a major, communicate more and learn more. Ask him to comment on his film. Although it may be bad in the eyes of others, don't be afraid of being ridiculed. Shoot more, watch more, and it will get better slowly.

Sixth, comprehensive knowledge is also very important. Photography is an art, and the courses offered in our school include ancient literature, art appreciation, Chinese and foreign photography history, philosophy and so on.

Seventh, it is strongly recommended to learn computers well, especially the commonly used image processing software.

That's all for now. Learning photography is really expensive. . . However, there are some interesting things. Hehe, especially when making a good film.
