What are the main points of using the camera tripod?

To a photographer, a tripod is like Guan Yu and his red hare, like a driver and his navigator. It is an indispensable accessory for low light photography and long exposure, such as fireworks, car tracks, night scenes and other slow-door photography.

Even if you don't shoot fireworks, night scenes, or ordinary scenery and flowers, if you want your work to have better definition, better picture quality and stronger texture, you will get better results every time you put your camera on a tripod.

What is the standard of a good tripod? ; ;

Since the role of tripod can not be ignored, friends must choose a good tripod, otherwise it will become a chicken rib and waste money!

Years of comprehensive experience tells us that a good tripod must meet the three standards of "stability, speed and portability".

I would like to remind everyone here that the tripod attached to the camera bought by the boss like the following should never be used! ! ! Most of the tripods presented are made of plastic and thin aluminum, which is fragile. Thousands of dollars or even tens of thousands of dollars of cameras are placed on it, wobbly and unstable. When a gust of wind blew, the camera fell and broke, which was not worth the candle. Why don't you go back and talk to the boss? So at this time, you might as well ask the boss to change a memory card. )

1: One of the useful tripod standards: stability.

Stability comes first. If it's not for stability, why spend money on the whole tripod? Stability mainly depends on the material of tripod tube. You get what you pay. Generally speaking, expensive tripods have good quality and strong stability.

2. Easy-to-use tripod standard 2: fast

; The word "quick" is used on a tripod, which means: the shelf is easy to put away; The camera is easy to install and disassemble; It is convenient for the camera to switch between horizontal composition and vertical composition on the shelf.

Just as a camera is composed of a camera body and a lens, a tripod is composed of a shelf and a tripod head. In order to achieve the "three conveniences" mentioned above, the design efforts are all on shelves and platforms.

The design form of the shelf is relatively fixed, and the expansion and contraction of the pipe is usually hoop type and spiral type, which are almost the same. The main difference lies in the quality of the material.

Yuntai is a "platform" installed on the top of tripod to fix the camera. Its function is to control the camera's all-round angle and facilitate shooting from different angles. So the tripod head is the core of the tripod.

Mid-to-high-end tripods are generally not equipped with tripod heads, so you have to buy them separately. When buying a pan/tilt, the pan/tilt to be considered should not only be solid, well-made and well-designed, but also be reasonably designed, so that users can take photos and focus quickly by taking advantage of their hands. The camera is easy to install and disassemble, easy to lock the camera, and the ball rotates smoothly and coherently, so it is an ideal platform.

All parts are made of precision cam technology, and the horizontal locking knob and damping knob are arranged at 1 10 degrees, which is an advanced spherical pan/tilt. Adopt double inclined top drive to lock, which has stronger locking force and is suitable for panoramic film shooting.

The connection design of the tripod head is ingenious: put the square tripod head plate on the camera base, then press it on the tripod head, click it, and the camera will be firmly locked, so it is installed! There is no second time; Want to take the camera off the tripod, hold the camera in your left hand, and press the safety button with two fingers in your right hand at the same time, not for a second! Easy to take off, especially fast!

These functions, such as changing the viewing angle 360 degrees, and quickly switching between horizontal composition and vertical composition, are the advantages of this spherical pan/tilt. Hold the camera in your right hand and the pan/tilt handle in your left hand. Loosen the lock at any time and adjust the angle at any time so as not to miss a photo by mistake. Moreover, locking the handle can adjust the length, which is really worry-free! Very, very early!

3. Easy-to-use tripod standard 3: lightweight; ;

The tripod is light, but it is as important as stability and convenience! It is best not to be unstable and inconvenient; It's too big and too heavy to carry, so it can only be kept at home as a decoration. If you have a car, an assistant and a footman, you can buy the biggest, heaviest and most stable tripod. If you have to recite it yourself, please weigh your physical limits.

Tripod materials are generally divided into aluminum alloy, carbon fiber and so on. Different materials directly affect the weight of tripod. Aluminum alloy is heavy and the price is average. The weight of carbon fiber is 20%-30% lighter than that of aluminum alloy. Because it is an aviation material, it is also very strong, but the price is more than twice as expensive as aluminum alloy.

The aluminum tripod below is relatively light, short and light, 1.73KG, only 345MM. Friends who have physical strength and want to save money can consider buying an aluminum tripod, which is convenient to carry and a good choice to travel.
