What lens do you need to shoot Taobao model?

Both indoor still life shooting and portrait shooting need lighting, and there is little difference between what to shoot. That should be measured from the focal length of the lens and the distortion control of the lens.

Anyone who often shoots still life or architecture knows that 35L~~ is a good lens for distortion control of Canon fixed-focus lens.

This focal length is suitable for still life shooting. So I recommend it to the landlord: Canon EF 35mm f/ 1.4L USM.

The price is about 1W 1. This lens can be described as a very good professional still head, and the distortion control almost surpasses all lenses of the same level.

In addition, indoor clothing models usually shoot with F8 small aperture, which has low requirements for the lens itself ~ ~ and does not need blur effect ~ so this lens can adapt to indoor clothing models at the same time.

At the same time, because this lens has a large aperture of 1.4, outdoor shooting, especially night portraits, also has a good charm. Although not as good as 85L, I think this is more suitable for the landlord. After all, it's not taking pictures. Taobao photography does not need a large aperture. It's not just artistic conception. Too large aperture will affect the texture of clothes.

If you want to choose a zoom lens, it is the head of 24-70F2.8 Although the distortion control is not as good as that of 35L, it is quite good. It can be used for still life and portrait, and at the same time, because the zoom lens is more useful for going outdoors or shooting other things.

If you make a movie about clothes:

It is natural to use the best and most professional lights when budgeting, so I won't say more.

It doesn't matter if the budget is tight. The landlord can follow what I said below:

4 soft light boxes, each with 4 lights (several hundred dollars each).

3 Primary color photographic lamp 135W or above, the minimum is greater than 135W~ about 30~50 yuan each ~4 light boxes are 16 bulbs.

Light distribution: the left and right sides of the front 1 are placed 45 degrees parallel to the standing position of the figure, and the light meets at the standing position of the model ~; The front and upper parts of the model are illuminated downward, and the light position is inclined about 30 degrees from the front of the character and shines on the face, shoulders and chest of the character. Finally, the 1 lamp is used as the background light, either left or right, and the light bypasses the characters and shines on the background cloth as the background light, so that the light that meets this condition is basically enough.

If you shoot a small still life,

You can choose to use a still-life table or a still-life box ~ ~ The price of a still-life table is slightly higher than that of 600 yuan ~ The effect is better than that of a still-life box ~ The volume is also larger than that of the latter ~ ~ Still-life box 100 yuan.

If you use a still life table, you can use the three or four soft boxes mentioned above.

Different from the lighting above, the light box with background lighting is directly placed under the still life platform to emit light, while if the two light boxes above are standing on the still life platform, they should be placed in the middle ~ the surfaces of the two light boxes and the still life platform are all triangles ~ ~ four are left and right 1 and the right 1.

If you use a still life box, you don't need a soft box. It's cheaper to use a wide-mouth lamp, and three lamps each 1 will do.
