How to correctly take clear photos with the camera in your hand?

Many people think that as long as I can take good photos, it will be enough. It doesn't matter what posture I use or how I take pictures. But in fact, the correct way to hold the camera can help you fix the camera more effectively and take clearer photos.

Many of the following demonstrations are common mistakes. If you are a novice photographer, I hope this article can help you get rid of your previous bad habits and teach you how to grasp the camera correctly.

Whether you are a novice or an experienced photographer, let's see if you have mastered the correct method of holding the camera.

(1) Standing shooting

When we stand and take pictures, we need to hold the camera in our hands and grasp the center of gravity, because this determines the vibration and balance center of the camera. The lower the center of gravity, the more stable the shot.

When your arm is raised (as shown on the left), you can barely support the camera, which will move your center of gravity and make it farther away from your body. This may not seem illegal, because many people do it. But try to keep your elbows close together when shooting, because it will be more stable and have a lower center of gravity. Don't let your left arm separate from your right arm when you stand and take pictures.

The two photos are still wrong, but because she didn't grasp the camera lens correctly. Your left hand should be under the camera lens. Hold the lens.

Your center of gravity is constantly moving when taking pictures, but the closer your center of gravity is to your body, the more stable your camera will be.

The following posture is often seen by tourists. They lean forward or backward to get the camera, which seems common, but it is very difficult to keep balance. Please don't be lazy when taking pictures, always keep your body upright and don't lean forward or backward ~

If you still can't maintain a stable upright posture, here is an extra tip to share with you. This posture looks unusual, but it is easy to fix the camera. Just put your left arm on your shoulder, so you can relax your arm and use it as a support for the camera to fix it. But it should be noted that the subject is usually beside you, not in front of you.

Try it yourself and find a standing position that suits you best.

(2) Sitting posture shooting

When you sit down, your center of gravity drops. At this time, you need to support your body with your legs, and don't let your legs swing back and forth.

When sitting and taking pictures, just lift the camera and put your arms on your knees as a camera bracket. Don't let your arm hang, which is not conducive to the stability of the camera.

Finally, if you need to lie on the ground and shoot face forward, then this is the best posture. At this time, the position of your legs is not important, because all your weight is in front of your body. At this time, your arm is particularly important.

In the first photo below, the left hand is placed on the outside of the camera, which is wrong. The posture of the photo on the right can support any low-angle photo action, which provides a good support for the camera. When taking pictures on the ground, you still need to put your arms together and don't open them too wide.
