Which is better, a travel camera phone or a SLR? The difference between camera phone and SLR.

In fact, many people have to take photos when traveling, but this face leads to a question: SLR is better or mobile phone is better. In fact, Bian Xiao still thinks it depends on personal needs. Do you need to take a picture as a souvenir or do you want to shoot a travel blockbuster?

Mobile phone travel photography Now more and more awesome mobile phones appear. Nothing that falls from more than a dozen floors is broken. It's a joke to take a hammer completely unscathed.

That's right. Now, with the increase of the pixel and aperture of mobile phones, so-called camera phones emerge one after another. Take Huawei p9, a new camera phone.

There are too many parameters that can be adjusted. What aperture, shutter speed, metering mode, these functions that can be adjusted on the SLR can be realized on the mobile phone.

This is an operation interface of Huawei p9, and there are many parameters that can be directly adjusted, like the blur effect taken by a large aperture lens that many beginners like. Now p9 can also be realized for you. Please look at the picture below

This is impossible for ordinary mobile phones, including Apple. This soft blur effect is difficult to achieve, and now it can be achieved through internal operation.

Advantages of mobile travel photography 1. I have a mobile phone in my hand, so I'll leave if I say so. Yes, it is a very light word. When you take a break and don't want to drag dozens of pounds of equipment to unparalleled scenery, a mobile phone can achieve the desired effect.

2. Cheap, all caused by money. If you have no money, everything you say is nonsense. A camera phone with accessories is dead, but a good SLR, 5000 yuan, can't even afford the fuselage, let alone other things.

3. You can share it quickly. Whenever there is a special time, not to mention an ordinary person, even a photographer can't always carry a camera, but a mobile phone can. You can quickly record some stories and scenes that happened at that time, which SLR can't answer. Although some SLR cameras already have wifi function, it is most convenient to share them in social fields such as Weibo and WeChat.

There are many downloadable applications and filters on the mobile phone. Three seconds can make you not know someone. Three seconds ago it was ugly, and three seconds later it was picturesque. That's a bit exaggerated, haha, but I just want to say that there are too many downloadable apps and filters on mobile phones. Download a good app and let you feel the rhythm of online celebrities in minutes.

Chinese and Italian people look at this place, I like the block diagram very much, and the filter inside feels great. Just a few random clicks can make a seemingly ordinary photo come to life and become a photo with a story.

Butter camera

Why do you recommend this? This is an app that girls like very much. Although there are not many kinds of filters, there are many fonts and editable modes, which can make your photos small and fresh every day.

VSCOcam

This app seems to be the first photo app I have ever used. Although it is uninstalled now, I feel that the interface is a bit cumbersome and not so practical, but the filter inside is very sensible and definitely your favorite. However, most of the filters inside need to be unlocked, that is, they can only be unlocked after paying money. But now Taobao has a special unlock. If you can't put it down, you might as well take some blood and go to Taobao to unlock it.

Mobile phone photography has unparalleled creativity.

The photography revolution brought by digital technology is guiding mankind to open a new image ecology. In the expression of creativity, compared with traditional photography, the creativity of mobile phone photography will have more advantages. In the era of creativity first, the leader of content and concept will be better than the simple image carrier.

In the future, photography may no longer be the original photography, but it is still observing human beings and still exists in an irreplaceable way.

Some things about the mobile phone part are probably finished. Let's talk about some things about SLR travel shooting.

It's time for the SLR brigade to capture the appearance of important guests. Haha, SLR, why is it important? Because I like taking pictures with it. Isn't it a bit demanding? Take it easy. There are dry goods below.

Speaking of SLR, I feel endless. Let's briefly summarize it from the aspect of travel.

It is true that the above words sound terrible, but they are true. When I first played SLR three years ago, I just pressed the shutter at random on the way to travel. Press when you see something good, something good, something handsome, something uninterested, something delicious, and so on. I couldn't wait to come and play with one or two thousand photos. Yes, at that time, I just traveled for the record.

A year later, after watching all kinds of beautiful pictures in Travel Notes of the Honeycomb, and the heart that can hook up with my little sister to take pictures, I gradually came into contact with photography, embarked on the road of losing my home and began to buy lenses. My first lens is 18-200, a Canon camera lens. At that time, I thought this lens was old and awesome, with wide angle and telephoto. It took me a while to know it was called.

Three years have passed. Look at the equipment now. Sony in it is not mine.

Now a camera and a lens can't meet my shooting needs, so you need more. Everyone travels in different ways. You don't want to be the same. You just have to travel in your own way, and that's the trip you want. Don't imitate, follow your own steps. See if you want to record, travel as a hobby, or as a career. You have what you want, and I think you have your own answer. These devices are just a way to help you realize your dreams, and more often you have to grasp them yourself.

Let's talk about what the SLR brigade can't do first. It is estimated that after reading the following paragraph, everyone will have to pay the bill backwards.

I'm just talking about most mobile phones, not professional camera phones.

Although the picture quality of current mobile phones is not hundreds of thousands of pixels, most of them are above 1000 and 2000 pixels, from the perspective of photo enlargement, especially at night, it is obvious that the noise of mobile phones is very high.

This is a sunset scene taken by a SLR at the seaside, taken with a tripod. If you shoot with a mobile phone, this will happen, as shown below:

The dark parts of photos will be very dark, which is hard to avoid in landscape films, especially when the light ratio is relatively large, and it is difficult to balance the bright and dark parts, so some photos need to be brightened and will be done later. Most of them can be brightened if the dark part is not dead black in the later stage of SLR, but as for the mobile phone, you will find that there will be a lot of color noise when you brighten the dark part, as shown below.

This is a big disadvantage of mobile phones, especially at night. You will find that this situation is particularly serious. Even if you don't mention the bright and dark parts, you will find that the noise is particularly serious. Therefore, if you pay attention to image quality and want to shoot a good night scene, you have to do the opposite.

The silky feeling makes your photo move.

Many friends asked me how to atomize the sea. In fact, a filter can be exposed for a long time. Now, aside from the later stage, there are still many shots, all of which are achieved by post-superposition.

This photo was taken two hours before the sun went down, and it was positive and negative light with a large light ratio. At this time, it is necessary to use filters, neodymium mirrors and GND mirrors to balance the light ratio, and use neodymium mirrors to reduce the light, which can make clouds or sea fog. Although some mobile phones can achieve long exposure function, it is almost impossible to achieve SLR effect.

The sea is like a mirror. This photo was taken at the seaside in Nha Trang, Vietnam.

Special shooting depends on what the SLR means by special shooting. It can also be said that at high temperature or polar low temperature, starry sky, aurora, underwater, celestial photography, etc. Everyone needs, or needs professional equipment. This is the world of SLR. For example, a meteor:

You need long exposure, large aperture, high iso, cold resistance, especially in plateau weather and climate, and strict requirements for equipment. So ordinary mobile phones can't and can't meet your requirements in this respect.

This is the starry sky shot in Lugu Lake. The temperature was only a few degrees, especially under this starry sky. If you want to take time-lapse photography, it may take one night, so you have to weigh it.

How to choose the last moment for you to choose? After reading my summary, you should know exactly what you should choose. What kind of travel and equipment matter is not what equipment you choose, but what kind of travel style you like. I think it is enough to climb the mountain with dozens of pounds of equipment on my back and take the photos I want. I think it is too heavy. That good mobile phone can record my travel content, so there is no need to get a SLR. Remember, what matters is not the tools in your hand, but the helmsman in your heart.

Always talk about depth of field.

Today's mobile phones do enhance a lot of depth of field, but most of the time, only the micro-focus shooting of mobile phones is beneficial, which is completely different from the real 1.4 large aperture SLR lens.

Some people think that the big aperture is only used by entry-level players to shoot flowers, plants and still life, and real masters can ignore the existence of depth of field-but even if you are not good at still life photography, there is a big aperture like photography. After all, all the girls who took photos on 1.4-4 feel like a beauty camera bling-bling.

& gt& gt Even if a photographer can take still life photos, the depth of field and fullness can play a role in boosting and forcing the grid in an instant.

This is especially true for portraits. I like to explain it by contrast, which is clear at a glance, needless to say. The following two groups of pictures, the above picture was taken by SLR, and the following picture was taken by mobile phone. The same scene, the same model movements, the effect for everyone to see ~

So the application of things like depth of field, whether you want to shoot a girl:

Or shoot a monk:

Shooting animals:

Still life:

You can use the depth of field of SLR to bless the power of the wild in minutes, which is also a great beautification for the parties ~-v-~

In fact, even if there is no SLR camera with large aperture depth of field blessing, the delicate texture taken under small aperture is beyond the reach of mobile phone lens. This feeling is subtle, because it is not that the lens of the mobile phone can't be taken, but that at the moment when you see the photo, the SLR and the mobile phone have a dividing line.

Shutter speed SLR can freeze water droplets at a speed of 1/8000 seconds, or record the orbit of a star with a long exposure of 30 seconds. And these are all congenital defects of mobile phones.

Although the first picture below is a bit of a failure as a portrait, it is enough to express the concept of "solidified water droplets". However, these are only11250 (water droplets can be frozen in the above picture),11600 (water droplets can be frozen in the middle picture) and 1/65433.

There are countless examples of long exposure shooting. There are a lot of beautiful photos of the starry sky on the head of bees every day, all of which are masterpieces exposed for several seconds or even dozens of seconds. Starry sky, aurora, night, whatever,

Are inseparable from long exposure. I am not a master photographer. I dare not take pictures of those tall starry sky, but I also want to say that no matter whether I am a master photographer or not, I can actually capture the night that my mobile phone can't capture with a SLR lens, and just put one or two SLR long-exposure night scenes at will, which is also a demonstration for a novice like me ~

ISO and tolerance As we all know, the brightness of a photo is directly related to the amount of light entering, which is limited by the sensitivity, shutter speed and aperture size ~ There is a very annoying situation, you have to take a fast and bright photo, which happens to be in the night scene, so you have to put the ISO tolerance on the desktop. The sensitivity of photosensitive elements to light will directly determine the amount and size of noise. Night scenes and low-light scenes taken by mobile phones are always the biggest harm. Even if the subject is lit, there will always be bumpy noise in the background. Although this situation cannot be ruled out in SLR cameras, the sensitivity of photosensitive elements is much higher than that of mobile phones, so the tolerance for noise will be higher than a little, and this tolerance can be significantly improved with different lens grades. For example, iPhone.

6S

ISO tolerance cannot exceed 1000, Canon 7D can reach 1600+, and 5D3 tolerance can easily reach more than 3200. Can you see that the following photos were taken by 5D3 in ISO20000 with fat white?

What you see in the background below is not noise, but the audience exposed through the smoke can see the shape of the figure? )

Shooting the so-called extreme environment in extreme environment, such as extremely cold environment (MINUS 20 degrees), the dividing line between mobile phone shooting and SLR shooting is more obvious than before.

It stands to reason that the first player is a SLR. The first one is that the aurora behind the camera is too bright to be recognized by the naked eye, and it can only be recognized by the long exposure of the SLR. Although it can be recognized by the naked eye, there are too many shades in the resort, so it is not good to shoot ~ Please shoot the brick ~>& gt.

Then the mobile phone player >>

Don't laugh, it's all good. At least you can cut off a screen with words. Some mobile phones and hand-held cameras turn off directly in a few minutes.

This extreme climate is fatal to mobile phones. In the Sichuan-Tibet Plateau with aurora and beautiful starry sky, the cold temperature at night often discourages most mobile phones. In fact, even if you can barely open it, you often can't take photos of aurora and starry sky because of insufficient photosensitive recognition. Not only mobile phones, but also most card machines and ordinary micro-orders will hang up in extremely cold weather of MINUS 40 degrees. At this time, it would be great if there was a SLR camera coming and going in the snow in the typhoon ~

In addition to the special night scene, in the snowy environment, SLR can also give full play to its strengths, and color recognition is much stronger than the naked eye. The following scene only shows white and gray to the naked eye:

Of course, giving so many examples doesn't mean that cell phone shooting is useless. The angle is good, the composition is good, and you can always take good-looking photos with your mobile phone. Besides, mobile phones also have the function of easily taking selfies anytime and anywhere, don't they ~ Every time you go out to play, you can't do without the dual protection of mobile phones and SLR ~

By the way, I would also like to recommend a good color matching software for mobile phones: Snapseed, which should be familiar to many people. This software can partially adjust colors and has complete functions. I often see that the photos adjusted by my friends around me have unexpected amazing effects.

The most important thing in photography is to always have a pair of eyes that are good at discovering beauty. Whether it is a mobile phone or a SLR, in the hands of excellent photographers, they can take different photos. However, the most important thing in traveling is to play, see with your eyes, feel with your heart, and do what you think is the most suitable choice.
