How to choose Nikon D850 street shooting lens?

Since it's a street shot, just choose a lens that is comfortable and fits the shooting theme.

If you like people who take snapshots at close range, such as people with culture and environment, 28, 35 and 50 will do. In fact, zooming is ok, but few people use zooming to sweep the street because of the aperture and image quality. )

Recommend Nikon's 35f/ 1.4g or Sigma's 35art, the former is more expensive. As long as the horse is not out of focus, it has a high cost performance.

If you are used to long-distance shooting and don't disturb the subject (or you are too thin-skinned to lift the camera to shoot in person, after all, d850 is very big and domineering), you can zoom 70-200 or even longer.

Street shooting in the middle telephoto section is flexible and convenient in composition and has strong blurring ability, which is more suitable for taking photos with characters as the theme.

Nikon d850 is an excellent SLR camera, ranking first among the second flagship cameras in Quan Huafu. If you use this machine to "street shoot", you must first look at how to use it, and then consider the lens matching.

Actually, street shooting can be divided into two forms. One is to look for interesting, emotional, visual and artistic scenes in the street at will without disturbing the subject, and use stories to seize the moment and create documentary works. The other is to create street portrait photography with the street as the background and a specific model as the shooting object.

Regarding these two street shooting methods, I personally think that d850 is not suitable for the first one. It's not that I can't shoot, but this camera is a little too big. If street shooting is carried out without disturbing the subject, I am afraid it will be too conspicuous, and the photographer himself may become the focus of street shooting. The camera suitable for the first street shooting is often a very small and inconspicuous device. In fact, the quality of this creative method is not the first, but the most important thing is to capture the real moment. Therefore, we usually use small cameras, such as micro-single and biscuit lenses, Sony Black Card, Ricoh gr and even mobile phones to shoot. If it is the second way of street shooting, it is actually the work of shooting portraits in the street shooting environment, and d850 is more suitable. We only choose the lens of the second street shooting method.

Taking environmental portraits in the street is not the pursuit of extreme background blur, nor is it mainly based on shooting close-ups of small scenes. Generally, it is necessary to highlight the portrait subject itself and explain the environment to a certain extent, and combine the environmental atmosphere with the portrait subject itself to create a unique sense of street atmosphere. For such a subject shooting, I personally tend to choose a lens with such characteristics:

1, the focal length cannot be too long. Although long focal length is beneficial to blur the background, it is likely to be too blurred, completely ignoring the environmental factors of street shooting, which is not conducive to the performance of street shooting. Personally, I think that the lens of portrait works in the street shooting environment is 28mm, 35mm, 50mm and 85mm, and the longest focal length is135 mm. Of course, many friends are unconvinced and think that 200mm and 300mm can be taken in the street. Of course, we don't mean we can't. We only emphasize the "environmental atmosphere" to choose the lens, and the lens of 85mm and below is more suitable for the application of this theme.

2. The aperture should not be too small. Since it is portrait creation, the layering of the picture is indispensable. It is necessary to highlight the expressive power of portraits. The street environment is complex and not suitable for complete and clear presentation. Need to use shallow depth of field appropriately, just right. It can't be completely blurred as mentioned above, and it can't be completely blurred. While highlighting the main body of the characters, the interpretation of the elements of street environment is just right. So if the aperture is too small, on the one hand, the shallow depth of field effect is not easy to achieve, on the other hand, shooting in the dark or night street will not be clear. The maximum aperture of the lens should be above f/2.8.

3, it is best to have anti-shake. Street photography, even posing, is very flexible and it is unlikely to use a tripod. If the lens has anti-shake performance, it will be more handy to use. Of course, this condition is not necessary. In the case of short focal length and large aperture, anti-shake actually has little effect.

4. High resolution. D850 can be regarded as a SLR with relatively high pixels. If the lens can't keep up with the resolution, it will be a drag on the strength of d850, so we need to choose a lens with high resolution support, and some old lenses can be excluded.

According to the above characteristics, I personally think that there are several lenses on the d850 fuselage that can be considered for street shooting:

Nikon's 85mm f/ 1.4 is not a very new lens. It has been launched for almost 10 years. Its support for the high-pixel d850 is not as extreme as the new lens, but I still recommend it. The reason is that it is very suitable for portrait shooting, and it is also very suitable for portrait shooting in street view environment. In particular, shooting a portrait with a panoramic view can highlight the main body of the portrait and blur the background appropriately. Street portraits, 85mm focal length really need one. The large aperture of f/ 1.4 can easily control the depth of field, and the perspective relationship is very good, and the picture is basically undistorted. It takes a little patience to use this lens well. The focusing speed is not super fast. Suitable for slow shooting, not for fast shooting.

The above suggestions about Nikon d850 street shooting lens only represent individuals, welcome to discuss.

Street shooting, a special kind of photography, can be called street shooting, posing or capturing everything we shoot in the street.

A friend asked, which lens should be used for street shooting? Next, I'll just talk about my street shots.

I use this lens for street shooting. Let's not talk about imaging or lens quality here. We should be safe to use it.

Because this shot belongs to telephoto, we can shoot it from far away, especially shooting some emergencies or capturing pedestrians, which can let the other party relax their vigilance, because we are far away, and the other party may not be able to judge whether they are shooting them or not.

This lens has a large aperture and is also very important in street shooting. The blur effect of large aperture is good, which can effectively blur some unsatisfactory obstructions to achieve our shooting purpose.

This lens is a zoom lens, which is more suitable for us to capture, and can enlarge people or scenes from far away.

Maybe every friend has his own habit of using a mirror, but I just like to use this lens for street shooting. Which lens do you like to use? Welcome to communicate.

What are the main points of street shooting? I think everyone's understanding is that shooting people who cover some environmental elements and are not small in size is not too far away. According to the requirements of such a drawing, the choice of lens can basically be determined from standard to wide angle. Nikon D850 is a SLR camera in Quan Huafu, which has the same perspective as other SLR cameras, micro-cameras and film cameras in Quan Huafu. So the focal length of the lens shot with this theme is the same. That is, a wide-angle lens of about 35mm.

For a lens with a focal length of 35mm, you can choose a fixed-focus lens or a zoom lens with a focal length of 35mm. The advantages of fixed-focus lens are large aperture and clear imaging. The zoom lens not only has 35mm, but also has more extended focal length coverage. The range of composition can be determined more accurately, which is beneficial to the accuracy of composition and does not need post-cutting. Although the fixed-focus lens has good imaging, large aperture and high speed, it has to be abandoned in some special occasions because of its fixed focal length. If the same camera shoots a picture, the quality of the picture will undoubtedly drop greatly if it is cropped. Therefore, the original advantage has become a disadvantage. So when choosing a lens, we should weigh it. If the shooting environment is calm and you can run back and forth, which is convenient for shooting street scenes with accurate composition, then choosing a fixed focus lens is undoubtedly a better choice. If you need to grasp the speed and the moment, in this case, it is generally more appropriate to use a 24-70 lens with a big three yuan.

Street shooting also has different themes, which you can choose according to your own needs and shooting habits. D850 is very suitable for street shooting, but the choice of lens has little to do with the model of the fuselage.

Prime Minister, you have to decide what effect you want to shoot in the street. This is uncertain and the lens is not easy to choose. Normal is the zoom head. And my advice is not to use SLR cameras for street shooting. The camera will be pulled over.
