How to take a tripod photo?

1. When used on the flat ground, the three legs of the tripod must be opened in a regular triangle. If it is used on steps or slopes, first adjust the two legs of the tripod to the same length and put them under it, and then shorten the other leg to the length that makes the central axis of the tripod perpendicular to the ground plane.

2. Adjust the height of the tripod. The three legs of the tripod should be telescopic, not lazy, and only adjusted by the central axis. The central axis of tripod is mainly used for fine adjustment. If the central axis rises too high, the center of gravity will move up, thus reducing the stability of the tripod and the safety when shooting.

3. Pay attention to ensure that all the tripod devices are locked when shooting, so as to ensure the quality of shooting photos and the safety of photographic equipment.

4. When using a tripod in a windy place, you should lower the tripod as much as possible to shoot, or you can hang heavy objects that are easy to wind around you on the hook at the bottom of the tripod column to increase stability. The weight should not be too large, otherwise it will be easily blown away by the wind.

5, the ground is not strong enough, such as soft grass, can extend the tripod feet fixed nail, inserted into the ground fixed, in order to improve the stability of the tripod.
