How to set the camera for street shooting?

These are some photos I took recently. I use multi-angle and close focus, and I move to capture people accurately. Only by taking pictures quickly can I take good pictures of people. Look at some photos I have taken of beautiful women wearing clothes. Let's see, how fashionable, sexy, rich, curvy and effective. Do you see beauty and loveliness?

I mostly choose aperture priority when shooting in the street, and choose multi-point autofocus or manual single-point autofocus according to the situation; Manual focusing is not recommended unless manual lens is used, because street shooting is mostly snapshot (sneak shot), and automatic focusing is easy to realize, so it is not easy to miss fleeting scenes on the street. When shooting in the street, you should also pay attention to the following points in camera settings:

1. In order to improve the shutter speed, ISO can choose a high point. The lens should be 35mm or 50mm, and a large aperture is best.

2. It is best to use a micro camera and a card machine, which are lighter and more flexible than SLR when shooting.

3. Make full use of light when shooting in the street, choose backlight and side backlight, and make good use of spot metering and central key metering of the camera to make the photos more interesting.

Street shooting is mainly based on snapshot and sneak shot, and manual movement is slow, so continuous shooting should be stabilized automatically. The white rabbit is easy to shoot, but it is a little flamboyant.

Preset several fixed settings, and quickly select and use them according to the specific situation on site.

First, shoot blindly. M gear, speed 1/500s, aperture 8, ISO automatic (automatic value is set to 100-6400), evaluation photometry, high-speed continuous shooting.

Second, shoot normally. Aperture priority, aperture 4-5.6, ISO value automatic (properly adjust a fixed value to ensure the speed above 1/500), evaluation photometry, adjustable exposure compensation, high-speed continuous shooting.

Third, slow door shooting. Speed first, shutter115 seconds, ISO automatic (properly adjust a fixed value to ensure a required aperture value), evaluation photometry, adjustable exposure compensation, high-speed continuous shooting.

The film "Happy Autumn" was shot by quickly choosing the preset value on the spot.

The most convenient machines for street shooting are card machines and mobile phones. Most of these two types of machines use automatic files. Usually, there are many people who use Sony black cards, and they also use mobile phones as auxiliary equipment, mainly depending on the circumstances under which they are used, and the effect is quite good. Generally speaking, street shooting with a SLR camera is huge and conspicuous, and it is difficult to communicate with the subject. Moreover, setting to manual gear also has limitations, which is not conducive to snapshot.

Aperture priority is often used when shooting, and multi-point autofocus or single-point autofocus is manually selected according to the situation.

The theme of street shooting is generally urban architecture, street portraits, cultural street shooting and so on. The aperture priority mode of these themes can be basically fixed. If you want to shoot some special effects with the shutter, use the shutter priority mode, and the P-file program is automatically used for emergency shooting. Even if M is 1, aperture mode is the first choice.

Sensitivity is set to automatic. When the light is dim, it will automatically increase to save shutter speed.

The biggest convenience of aperture and shutter priority mode is that exposure compensation can be adjusted, but manual gear is not.

How big is the aperture of the street beat?

The environment of street shooting is generally chaotic. It is best to shoot portraits with the maximum aperture, especially when shooting a person in the crowd. It is difficult to highlight that person's action expression without a large aperture.

A large aperture can not only highlight the main body, but also provide more light for the camera, so the shutter will not be too limited.

Under normal outdoor light, I set the aperture to 1.8, the shutter speed is between1/500-11000, and the sensitivity is between 100-300, so I can basically shoot most scenes and keep the shutter quality.

How to set the focus?

Focusing methods include single autofocus and intelligent autofocus.

Single-focus and half-press shutters will not change when focusing, unless they are refocused.

Intelligent auto-focus semi-safety shutter, it will always be in active focus, jumping around.

Focus position includes single point focus and regional focus.

Single-point focusing has only one focus point, and you can aim it wherever you want. It's your call.

There are many focal points in an area, with large and small areas. The bigger the focus, the more uncertain the focus position. The final focus is not decided by you, and the area is random.

Focus method and focus position should be used together to make focus more accurate.

If the subject is still or not moving very much, use single focus and single focus;

When the subject is active, intelligent autofocus and area multi-point focusing are used.

The above are the common focusing methods for framing with viewfinder. Street shooters don't like to use the viewfinder. It hurts to narrow one eye.

It is recommended to use the display screen to view the site. Remember to turn on the focus tracking function. The camera also has facial recognition function. Focus tracking is very close and the effect is very good.

2. When to use shutter priority mode?

The demand for shutter is very high, that is, to shoot two effects, the solidification of the picture and the blurring of the slow door.

Focus mode: intelligent autofocus combined with multi-point area focus.

For example, shoot people skateboarding at the speed of 1/2000 seconds, put people in the focus area, and use high-speed continuous shooting. There is always one that will satisfy you.

A stationary object is in real focus, while a moving object is in virtual focus.

Achieve the dreamy effect of contrast between reality and reality.

Focus mode: single focus plus single focus, focusing only on the house.

Moving objects are in real focus, while stationary objects are in virtual focus. Make it dynamic fuzzy.

The principle is that the camera and the moving subject move at the same time, so they are in a relatively static state, and the originally static object becomes a relatively moving state. In the case of slow doors, moving objects naturally become blurred.

Focus mode: intelligent autofocus combined with multi-point area focus.

Summary:

Aperture priority mode is the first choice for street shooting, which can be competent for shooting most scenes.

Shutter priority mode is suitable for capturing special effects of instantaneous action and combination of reality and reality.

It is recommended to shoot on the display screen and use the focus tracking function, which is powerful.

I seldom shoot with m, and I don't quite understand the saying that I haven't done it.

I always feel that I can solve problems semi-automatically. Why do you want automatic transmission?

P-file blind shot is recommended.

I think there are only three ways to take a street shot, 1, and take a snapshot while squatting: find a suitable location and bring equipment (preferably telephoto) to take a snapshot. 2. Tailing: Looking for a suitable target, usually shooting with a mobile phone or a micro-camera. Note that the speed is consistent with the target, and you shoot in the middle and low position. Control the shutter speed not lower than 1 .000 per second. 3. Participation in filming: Look for suitable venues for activities, such as tourist attractions, parties, auto shows and other indoor and outdoor large-scale event sites. At this time, you can shoot at will, be bold and don't need to hide.

In a word, the key to being in harmony with people in the right place at the right time is to practice hard. Just like the landlord, you should practice hard. "Press the shutter and people will pass" is a good idea. Just aim the camera at the front of the target next time.

Reset the camera according to what you want to shoot. For example, in my street shooting, the shutter speed is faster, and the characters move around, generally at least 1/640, so that the portraits are clearer. If you are slow, the characters are blurred and the photos are not clear. Generally, street shooting blurs the surrounding environment and background, because it will be chaotic around the street shooting, and the aperture is set to a large aperture, so that the photos taken will highlight the main body and blur the surrounding area.

Street shooting also depends on the color matching of the characters' clothes, whether they match the surrounding environment and so on.
