Very novice question, how to fix the camera on the tripod?

1, camera tripods are divided into tripods, monopods, octopus stands and so on. Tripod is the most common one. Nowadays, many tripods can remove one foot and install a tripod head as a monopod.

The tripod mainly plays a stabilizing role, so it needs to be strong. But it needs to be portable and easy to assemble because it needs to be carried frequently. There are about three or four hundred tripods made of general materials, and there are thousands of high-end tripods. Their functions are similar.

2. To fix the camera on the tripod, first install a quick assembly board for the camera with a screw hole. Screw in the screws on the quick assembly plate and fix them. In the case of frequent use of tripod for external shooting, it will be more convenient to install the quick-loading board on the camera if it is possible.

3. The quick assembly board of the camera is pre-installed. Then the first step in using a tripod is not to take out the camera, but to fix the tripod. Take out the tripod first, and then unfold the triangle. There is a limit slot at the foot position to select the opening angle. Select the limit grooves of the same gear for the three brackets.

4, and then adjust the length, the tripod is divided into several sections, so that it is stable when used. It is better to lengthen each one one by one. In other words, each tripod chooses to open the same section. Loosen the fixing screws and unfold the tripod. Then tighten the screw to fix it.

5, put the tripod in a flat position, at least to ensure its stability, will not shake and fall.

The next step is to adjust the translation/tilt. Pan-tilt is mainly divided into three-dimensional pan-tilt and spherical pan-tilt, and three-dimensional pan-tilt is more commonly used in photography. The advantage of spherical pan-tilt is portability. Usually, the spherical pan-tilt has three adjustment knobs. One is a horizontal rotating knob, and the other two are ball fixing knobs. Loosen the balls and you can turn them at any angle. Then tighten and fix.

6. If shooting horizontally, it is recommended to observe the level on the pan/tilt first, and then install the camera after adjusting the level of the pan/tilt.

If you want to choose an angle shot, install the quick board first. Then keep the camera stable during the adjustment process. After adjusting the angle, tighten the fixing knob.

7. The next step is to take photos. In fact, there will be a slight shaking when the hand is placed on the tripod. Especially when using a telephoto lens, so one way is to add a cable to release it. Avoid hand shaking affecting shooting. Only in this way can we achieve the best results.
