How to take a self-portrait of dance art with a camera at home?

The most important thing in taking pictures of dance art is the graceful dance movements and self-confidence of stop-motion dancers. Because dance performance uses refined and rhythmic movements to express lyrical narrative or theme, we must grasp the characteristics of "motion" when shooting.

As a dancer, you should be very aware of the rhythm and the most beautiful movements of the dance, so I won't say much about the timing of pressing the shutter. Let's discuss the preparations to be made in the early stage:

1. Choose a professional camera that supports high-speed continuous shooting. Dance photography belongs to the category of sports photography, and it must have enough continuous shooting speed to ensure the clearest and most wonderful moment.

2. the right lens. Large aperture lens is preferred. Because I don't know the size and lighting of your specific shooting site, I can only take most cases as an example here. Your lens aperture should be set at least above f2.8, such as 24-70 f/2.8. If it is shot in a small dance studio with sufficient light; This is another matter. In this environment, you can use an aperture of about f3.5 to f5.6.
