I want to open a photo studio. What camera should I use? There are other questions about the photo studio. Please help me answer together.

I used to run a photo studio. From what you said, there are still too many things I don't understand. I don't recommend investing immediately. At least, it is better to be fully prepared. First ask where your city is and what is your consumption level. Have you been to the local photo studio to understand the market?

First, it is essential to have at least two digital SLR cameras. If the photo studio is relatively large, it needs to be increased. You can have two SLR cameras and three or four lenses first, and then consider whether to add a camera according to the business situation. The studio basically takes portraits. Canon SLR cameras are recommended, and the specific models can be considered as 60D and 6D. In fact, the cameras used in many photo studios are not necessarily better than those used by photographers, and the prices are often moderate, because the cost performance must be considered, and the amount of photos taken by photo studios is much larger than that of ordinary people playing with cameras, which consumes a lot of equipment. It may not be cost-effective to match a high-end camera like 5D3. The 7D is a good camera, but it is a half-frame camera after all, and the imaging quality is basically the same as that of the 60D. At present, its price is around 8200. The imaging quality is not as good as the new full-frame camera 6D (its price is only 2000), and the cost performance is not as good as 60D (its price is around 5400). Therefore, it is recommended that you have one 6D and one 60D, 60D is enough for ordinary photography and 6D is enough for high-end sets (high-consumption customers). The lenses are at least two hanging zoom lenses plus one or two fixed focus lenses. Canon 15-85mm (price 3500+) suggests 60 days, and Longteng 24-70 mm VC (price around 7000) suggests 6 days. Canon 50mm 1.4 and 85mm 1.8 are recommended for fixed-focus lenses (the prices are above 2000). The zoom lens is mainly used to shoot exterior scenes, and a wide angle of about 24mm is very necessary. The fixed-focus lens mainly shoots internal and a small number of external close-ups.

Second, the decoration of the studio, you'd better go to other stores to see more, don't decorate yourself at will, and ask professional designers to come up with a plan. There is no uniform standard for this, and it is not a matter of several rooms. There is usually a large indoor shed (including all kinds of props), which needs to be designed according to the actual size and environment of your store. Lamps and lanterns are generally professional flash photography lamps of more than 400W, and the number is several (more than four), which requires background cloth, soft boxes, reflectors and many other things.

Third, printing digital photos is definitely not an ordinary small print shop. Find the nearest large-scale digital laser printing shop (which is basically available in provincial capitals), and if necessary, look at the equipment he uses and the photos he takes, because the photo effect is too important for the photo studio! If you need to consult the price of their store, just say that the newly opened photo studio needs to develop photos, and they will give you a detailed price list. Photos are usually sent to them through the internet after they are taken, and their store will send someone to deliver them to your door within the specified time. Of course, it's best to know more about several such large print shops and compare the photo effects and prices before making a decision. Art supplies such as photo frames and photo albums are generally sold locally (if conditions permit, it is best to find out which printing shop works well and where to buy photo frames cheaply)! )。

In addition, the studio needs many things, such as clothes (including wedding dresses, red skirts, dresses, men's wear, children's wear, etc. ), cosmetics (too numerous to mention), computers (including spectator computers and post-digital design computers), art supplies (oil painting films, film projectors, double-sided tapes, photo frames, photo albums, etc. ), and the necessary furniture (hall tables and chairs, computer tables and chairs)

Of course, there are more important people, such as photographers, makeup artists, shops, artists, digital designers, dress designers and so on. You LP adults can be cashiers. If you have any other questions, please ask!
