Tips for beginners of photography

1. What is the basis of learning photography?

I believe that the landlord is a fashionista who likes to take pictures, so he must have taken pictures with his mobile phone, micro-single, digital camera and so on.

Then some basic common sense of taking pictures, even if there is no systematic summary, must have subconscious understanding, such as light, simple composition, what kind of scenery to use and what kind of performance, such as a huge parade with a large depth of field and flowers trembling in the wind with a macro. This is the basis of your photography. Don't think they are unimportant. Any learning is based on a little knowledge.

Now photographers are working in photo studios, or video studios, or large magazines, and there are some famous private photographers. If the landlord wants to have a better development, he must first have professional training. With professional guidance and practice, his photography skills will be improved before he can apply for a better job or open his own photography studio on his own.

Before learning photography, you can take the initiative to consult the relevant theoretical knowledge of photography, so that you can know fairly well. At the same time, we should read more excellent photographers' photographs and fashion magazines, and be able to analyze photographs and learn from each other's strengths is the key to learning.

2. What is the introductory knowledge of SLR photography?

1, Still Life, Flowers, Birds, Fish and Insects, File A, Aperture F5.

More than 6, as large as possible, with a focal length of more than 50. Being too close to the subject will blur the background. The light intensity is iso 100 and within iso400.

Light mode, center or spot metering, pay attention to focus, use center and contrast composition (leave space around), lower the plane position, squat or raise your head. The picture is too dark +0.

7EV exposure compensation. 2. Shoot people in files A and M. ..

If you take a close-up of a person: refer to a still life with moderate sharpness, pay attention to focusing on the eyes or key parts, and make a composition in the center; If you shoot a person with a scene, the middle aperture is F8, the focal length is widest, the composition is three points, and the golden section is the golden section. Iso 100 should be as low as possible and adopt the original format. Pay attention to the correct exposure of the face. Due to insufficient tolerance, other parts are too dark and overexposed, and the curve can be pulled back later.

Characters should wear different colors from the background. Action posture: headache, toothache, stomachache, leg pain, looking up at the sky and overlooking the ground, lonely back, stretching and jumping, etc. You can use the props around you.

3. shoot a and m files. Iso 100 in sunny days, F8 1/200 or so, iso400 in cloudy days, one-step overall metering.

Wide angle (distortion), realistic medium focus, and fuzzy cutting space of telephoto. Pay attention to the safety shutter.

This paper introduces several filters: UV (ultraviolet filter) to protect lens coating; CPL (polarizer) can add color and eliminate the reflection on the surface of glass water; ND (medium gray density mirror) can reduce the amount of light entering, delay and beat the water artifact; GND (Medium Gray Gradient Filter) is used to gradually change the colors of the sky in the early stage, including blue, orange, green and gray. If the light ratio is too large (the sky is too bright and the scene is too dark), ensure the normal exposure of the scene, and cover the sky part of the lens with black cardboard for a period of time to reduce the amount of light entering.

4. shoot m files at night. Install the tripod to iso 100, otherwise it will be within iso 1600. Customize white balance or incandescent lamp, and turn on noise reduction and raw format.

Small aperture above 1 and F8 (such as F 1 1) will make the light appear starlight, so pay attention to the safety shutter. 2. Clean the scene: extend the exposure time (for example, F22, iso 100, shutter 10-30 seconds), pedestrians can disappear from the picture without leaving any trace, and the reflector is lifted in advance to reduce the vibration of the machine, so as to cover the safety shutter and avoid the influence of stray light behind.

The same is true of moving cars and railway tracks. 3. Spot shooting: maximum aperture, farthest focal length, facing the scattered light source, manually focusing to screw out the spot, or focusing on the nearest foreground.

5, night image M, night image file. The principle is to collect two exposures (a flash to catch people and a flash to capture the background).

On the tripod, or stable adjustment, automatic white balance, iso400 or so. Male: F2.

8-8, slow synchronous flash, Hou Lian flash mode. Portrait file at night: parameters need not be adjusted.

At this time, the flash will flash twice, press the shutter to flash once, and then flash again before the exposure is over, so people should not leave and shake halfway. You can make the characters clear, the neon background is beautiful, and it is not black.

6. Catch-up, zoom, rotary focus Catch-up: T range, shutter 1/30 or so. When focusing, press the shutter and the lens moves behind the vehicle at a proper speed (tripod is easy to control the direction), which can create a dynamic vehicle effect. So do people in sports.

The intensity of light determines the size of iso. Zoom: T range, shutter 1/30 or so (with zoom lens), focus first, press the shutter and twist the zoom ring instantly, that is, stretch the lens (keep the arm stable during the process), which can shoot radial zoom and light stretching effects.

The upper bracket can delay the coke pulling action. If the small aperture cooperates with the shutter to twist at a constant speed for 2 seconds, a more delicate and changeable effect can be achieved. Focus: T range, shutter is about 1/30. Focus first, press the shutter instantly, take the lens center as the axis (Z axis), and shake the fuselage at a small angle (in the XY plane), keeping the fuselage stable during the process, and you can shoot the radial rotation effect.

It is usually used in scenes where small objects are in the center and the surroundings are messy. 7, shoot the running water or fountain T file.

Fountain: shutter 1/200 is enough to solidify water droplets. Appropriate aperture, pay attention to focus.

Running water: the top frame, iso 100, shutter 1/50 or so, can shoot silk feeling. If it is dark at dusk, F 16 and shutter 2- 10 seconds can make silk feel more delicate.

It is better to use ND filter. Pay attention to the composition and plane position, and the foreground should be complete.

8. Take the M file of fireworks, and use the cable, tripod, F8, B and B shutter: hold down the shutter from the moment the fireworks fly, and then release it after it blooms and falls. In the gap between two fireworks, cover the lens with blackboard paper, and you can shoot the effect of overlapping multiple fireworks.

Rotate the fuselage angle horizontally, and you can shoot a whole row of spectacular fireworks. 9. Bird-shooting and Moon-shooting: First gear, iso 100, telephoto lens (focal length above 200), maximum aperture, if the high-end machine can focus, set continuous autofocus and put continuous shooting.

If the machine is normal, wait patiently on the tripod, focus on the position where the bird may fall in advance, then switch to manual focus, cancel the raw format (due to the speed limit of SD card reading and writing), and play continuous shooting. Shooting the moon: M-gear, tripod, iso 100, telephoto lens (focal length above 300), F8- 10, shutter is adjusted according to the darkness at night, and it is best to take pictures on LCD screen and enlarge manually.

10, water droplets and smoke droplets: m, iso 100, F8, shutter 1/200, wireless flasher, external flasher (index 1/8 or so). The plane is close to the water surface, the container and background should be clean, fixed above the dropper or water bottle, lit with a pencil, and then switched to manual focusing after automatic focusing. The effect of flashing lights placed directly above, behind and directly behind is different.

Master the rhythm of dripping water and play continuous shooting. Try more patience.

Smoke: Set the same water droplets. Dark background, flash behind the side, focusing in the same way as shooting water droplets.

3. What are the basic knowledge of photography?

Photography is basically divided into three parts: point, line and surface. Point refers to focus, line refers to line, and surface refers to composition in shooting!

concentrate

Visual center focus. Generally refers to the central focus that can reflect the theme of the picture. For example, a running deer, a child standing in a stream of people, etc. This is called the focus of the video center. There can be one or more. Multiple ones can set off each other, and the key points are different.

Focusing means that the subject is clear. Generally, manual cameras need to manually twist the focus ring to accurately focus on the theme realization information, while automatic focus cameras focus by pressing the shutter for half a beat.

line

In online classification, different types have different functions. We can divide lines into three categories: horizontal, diagonal and curve. And there are countless things in this form in life. Curved roads and straight trunks can all be regarded as "lines" in photography.

composition

It refers to the use of visual features to organically reproduce the objects in the three-dimensional space environment in real life in the two-dimensional space defined by corners, which plays the role of highlighting the subject, attracting attention, simplifying clutter and giving people a balanced and harmonious picture, and conveys and explains more information through the picture structure, reflecting the author's understanding and feelings about a thing.

4. What are the tips for beginners to learn photography?

First, keep the camera stable. Many friends who have just learned to shoot often encounter the problem of blurred images, which is caused by camera shake, so avoid camera shake when shooting.

You can hold the camera with both hands, press your elbows on your chest, or lean against a stable object. And relax, the whole person should not be too nervous.

It feels like you're a shooter with a gun, so take it slow and steady. Search 2. Let the sun shine behind you. Without light, photography is impossible. It is the perfect combination of light and shadow, so there needs to be enough light to illuminate the subject when shooting.

The best and simplest way is to let the sun behind you and have a certain offset. The light in front can illuminate the baby, brighten its color and shadow, and a slight angle can produce some shadows to express the baby's texture. Third, reduce the shooting distance. Sometimes, simply getting close to the baby can get better results than shooting from a distance.

You don't have to take pictures of the whole baby. Sometimes, exaggerating a unique place of the baby will create an image with strong visual impact.

5. What are the basic knowledge of photography?

The basic principles and techniques of photography have been integrated into its historical development. Optical theory, color theory, etc., combined with the introduction of camera function, are discussed with comparative and illustrative photo examples. What are the basic knowledge of photography that I will share with you?

What is "depth of field"?

A: The range of clear imaging before and after focusing is called "depth of field".

If you narrow the lens aperture (increase the F value), the range of clear imaging after focusing will be large, and the photos will not be blurred easily. This state is called "large depth of field". On the other hand, if you open the lens aperture (lower the F value), the focus range will be narrow and the background will be blurred easily. This state is called "shallow depth of field". Because the depth of field has a great influence on shooting, we must realize its importance when shooting.

The depth of field varies according to the focal length of the lens and the distance between the camera and the subject. Wide-angle lens has a large depth of field and telephoto lens has a deep scene. Moreover, the farther the camera is from the subject, the greater the depth of field; The closer the distance, the shallower the depth of field.

Which effect is better, fuselage anti-shake or lens anti-shake

A: Generally speaking, the correction effect of lens anti-shake and fuselage anti-shake is the same.

When the anti-shake assembly is installed in the fuselage, the position of correction operation is located at the back end of the optical system. When the lens is installed, it is located in the center of the optical system. Although the position is slightly different, the adjustment method is more important for anti-shake, so despite the different positions, the effect is not much different.

However, from the convenience of use, the "lens anti-shake" that comes with the mirror has more advantages. This is because the correction effect can be observed in real time from the viewfinder when taking a view, and you can wait for the shooting opportunity after carefully observing the subject. This advantage is that the focal length exceeds. . . .

6. Some basic knowledge of photography

What is a distant view, a panoramic view, a middle view, a close-up view and a close-up? It shows that the range of different sizes of scenery contained in a photographic picture is directly related to the shooting distance.

Foresight: refers to the big scene shot from a long distance. It is mainly used to express the environment, general atmosphere and space, rather than specific actions and plots.

Panorama: refers to the whole picture of the subject. Panorama is smaller than vision, but it can still show the whole subject and contain enough environment. Panorama can show some actions of the subject, but it is still not suitable for showing specific details.

Mid shot: Mid shot includes most of the main body, mainly showing specific plot actions, which is suitable for expressing the mental outlook of the characters. Its performance on the environment is partial and not suitable for the whole environment.

Close shot: Close shot includes the most important part of the subject. It can show the specific plot and action and the mood of the characters more prominently than the middle shot. You can explain the specific details.

Close-up: As a part of the main body, it can clearly explain the specific details and leave a deep impression on the audience, but it is not suitable for the performance environment.
