How to shoot the night scene with Fuji S9600? Which way to take pictures is good?

A good night scene must first ensure the clarity of the picture. Out-of-focus or blurred photos are not excellent in any way. Because the light at night is much weaker than during the day, in order to ensure that there is enough light to achieve correct exposure through CCD. At this time, if P-shift is used, the camera will slow down the shutter speed. Often less than110 seconds. In this case, hand-held shooting is almost impossible to guarantee stability. Of course there are exceptions. The most classic saying on the Internet is "artificial limb"! Hehe, for color lovers without artificial limbs, such as editors, tripods have become a must for shooting night scenes. By installing corner frames, we can arrange the exposure time at will (of course, if the camera allows) to create a personalized picture.

Tip: the tripod should be as high as possible, as strong as possible, and the heavier the better! Because such a corner frame can ensure that it will not shake when shooting. For ordinary fans, the domestic Weifeng 1.4m plastic leg frame is enough. Of course, don't expect such a tripod to accompany you over the mountains.

If you don't have a tripod, you can also increase the shutter speed by increasing the ISO sensitivity if necessary. However, in general, the ISO value should not be adjusted too high. Too high sensitivity will add a lot of noise to the picture and make it rough. Personal experience, ISO screen is basically no problem at 200, and it is basically acceptable after resizing at 400. Don't use ISO400 or above unless absolutely necessary, because full-screen noise is more difficult to adjust later in PS than underexposure. (Of course, these are also based on different opportunities. For some high-end digital SLR, it has excellent noise suppression function, and the image quality above ISO800 is acceptable. Of course, the price of such a machine is not acceptable to every color friend. )

Tip: There is a saying in the digital camera that "I would rather owe than pass", which means I would rather owe than pass. Because if we use shutter priority, we can control the shutter speed freely. When shooting the night scene, it can be controlled at a stable speed (Bian Xiao's personal speed is 1/20S), but at this time, it is inevitable that the sense of violence is insufficient. But the lack of violence is easier to adjust in PS. And if overexposed, the highlights are all dead white, that is, no one can save them. Remember, remember!

Second, it is necessary to accurately expose. Aside from the special effects created to express special artistic conception, the correct exposure can be obtained by using aperture priority mode and average metering. If this does not achieve the desired effect, we can also control the shutter speed through shutter priority mode or full manual (M-range). Under normal circumstances, with proper aperture and shutter speed of 2-4 seconds, special effects similar to "traffic flow" and "waterline" can be obtained.

Tip: At the same time, it should be noted that too long exposure time will also increase the noise of the picture, especially on the machine without noise reduction function. This is very strange for Bian Xiao. Bian Xiao's PRO90IS has 8 seconds exposure, but it has 16 seconds on O Ji 2 100 without noise reduction function! Bian Xiao saw an 8-second exposure film, so where is the night scene? There are stars everywhere.

Under normal circumstances, you don't need a flash to shoot at night. Because the effective distance of the flash is limited, it can't illuminate the panorama to be shot. But if you shoot a portrait at night, you need to turn on the flash and choose the slow synchronization mode to ensure that both the character and the background get enough exposure. In addition, in order to make the scene more clear, we usually use the minimum aperture to shoot. For some cameras, this can also achieve the Starlight Glimmer effect of light. Note: The intensity and shape of the star awn are different due to different cameras. Some cameras can hardly shoot beautiful stars.

These are just some basic skills of shooting night scenes. For the camera with full manual function, different effects can be obtained through different exposure time.
