What do you need to learn photography?

Learning photography and choosing a digital camera can help you get started quickly and learn more about cameras. After mastering it skillfully, you can choose traditional camera practice, which may be better. If the effect is emphasized, digital cameras are more suitable for novices; If technology is emphasized, traditional cameras are better. If it is good, the film machine is naturally made of top products of various brands, such as Nikon F5 or F6 Canon EOS- 1V, and should be equipped with corresponding auxiliary equipment. Digital and film are the same, but the photosensitive elements are different. The numbers are better, and the ones here are easy to learn. Attack technology, it must be a mechanical film camera, and there is no metering function! How to take good photos? When taking pictures, you can hold the camera in your right hand and gently hold the bottom of the camera in your left hand (we want to congratulate those brave people with high hand stability). But now the camera is getting lighter and lighter, and it adopts an ergonomic design. It's not difficult to hold the camera well, so hold it steady! And don't let accessories or fingers cover the lens and flash when taking pictures! In addition, when you press the shutter, you don't have to do your best to avoid falling short. Focus carefully! After selecting the subject, aim the focusing window at the subject and adjust the focal length. Note that the preview window (also the focus window) of the binocular camera and the lens are not in the same place, and the object should be moved appropriately when approaching. If you don't want to put the subject in the center of the photo, you can first aim the lens at the subject, gently press the shutter button to half the depth and fix your finger in that position, then move the lens to the predetermined center position, and then press the shutter button to the end. Pay attention to correct exposure! Pay attention to whether there is enough light. If you don't want to achieve special effects, try to avoid taking photos against the light, that is, let the light shine on the subject, and the photographer should stand in the direction where the light comes from. Portrait photography should use soft light sources, such as cloudy days or shadows. Select the appropriate aperture and shutter speed. The size of the aperture is expressed in numbers. The larger the number, the smaller the aperture, the larger the aperture, and the more light enters the lens. Flash should be used in places with insufficient light, but pay attention to the effective distance of the flash. Generally, the effective range of flash is only three or four meters. So if you have to shoot in backlight, please use flash or reflector to illuminate the protagonist. What exactly is reducing red eye? As long as you have taken photos with a flash, there is no doubt that you must have been exposed to red eye, that is, people's pupils will turn into Liang Cheng red, which is caused by dilated pupils. In weak light, the pupil will be dilated, allowing light to refract to the retina and reflect back to the camera lens. The way to prevent red eye is to turn on the camera's anti-red eye flash. The pre-flash it provides narrows the pupil, so the second flash will not be refracted into the eyeball. In addition, when there is some light, the pupil will naturally contract, reducing the chance of red eye. Please pay attention to the depth of field! The so-called depth of field is the range that can still be clearly seen before and after the focal length is aimed at a certain point. The distance between aperture, lens and subject is an important factor affecting the depth of field. The larger the aperture, the smaller the depth of field, and the smaller the aperture, the greater the depth of field. The longer the focal length of the lens, the smaller the depth of field, and vice versa. The closer the subject is, the smaller the depth of field is, and the farther the subject is, the greater the depth of field is. Many people choose a small depth of field to highlight the subject. Of course, if you want to shoot the scenery, we would recommend choosing a large depth of field. The pursuit of light Many photographers don't know that light has various atmospheres. The light changes with the time of day, with the change of season, climate and even regional environment. According to these changes, you can take various photos. When taking a photo, you can draw the light and take a good photo by observing how the subject is affected by the light. Mastering the charm of color affects the atmosphere of the whole photo. In the dark environment, the appearance of color brings Qi Chao, which makes the photos have the focus of attention. But if the color is not used properly, it may be counterproductive. For example, in a photo, if the area occupied by strong contrasting colors is too large, it will distract or take away the viewer's attention to the theme. Shape the outline of the theme Sometimes, just taking the outline of the theme will make the image more impactful. Contour is one of the keys for us to identify the subject. When the external details of a person or thing are removed or minimized, the outline will be clearer. Choose a flat background, such as the sky, and shoot the outline of the subject, so that the theme can be presented without interference. In addition, when the camera is close to the subject, complex contours can be simplified. Create a three-dimensional sense. When looking at some photos, do you have an impulse to touch the people or things in the photos? Why is this reaction caused? It is often because the oblique light is used when taking pictures, which enhances the effect of the three-dimensional space of the object and gives the original plane image a three-dimensional sense. Of course, this effect sounds like a lot of technical things, but in fact, it's just a technique of how to use up the light. The focus of theme texture is to successfully present the texture of the object appearance in the photo through the camera, and the key lies in whether it can convey the true feeling of touching the object. To convey the texture of an object, it is usually to shoot the camera close to the object or use a zoom lens with close-up function, but in this way, the lens can only accommodate part of the object. Therefore, photos with the local texture of the object as the subject are often visible, and in addition, some interesting information related to the theme texture can be added. The discovery of the theme and the expression of the pattern can not only give the photo a kind of strength, but also express the feeling you want to convey. As long as you observe carefully, you will find that there are patterns in many landscapes. These patterns may be composed of repeated shapes or colors of objects, or they may be changes in light and shadow after sunlight penetrates the objects. Sometimes, an ordinary scene will still produce eye-catching patterns after partial framing.
