What equipment should I choose for stage shooting?

Compared with SLR digital cameras, consumer digital cameras have the following disadvantages: 1, slow focusing speed; 2, the delicate performance of high sensitivity is not enough, and the picture is rough under high iso; 3. The shutter delay is too slow; 4. The aperture is not large enough, which affects the amount of light entering. Compared with consumer digital cameras, these can be regarded as "hard injuries", so don't expect to improve the quality of the camera itself, you can only reduce these disadvantages through some skills. Let's talk about the choice of equipment first: there are still many good models in consumer digital cameras, and the flagship consumer machines of major manufacturers will perform well. When shooting the stage, the stage lighting is often dim, so the light input of the camera lens is relatively high, so try to choose some digital cameras with large aperture lenses, such as Olympus c5060, Sony f7 17, f828, etc. In addition, because the shooting stage is far away from the shooting subject, it is sometimes necessary to shoot close-ups of actors' facial expressions and action characteristics, so the ordinary 3 times optical digital camera is out of reach. At present, many cameras are equipped with telephoto lenses with 5 times, 8 times or even 10 times and 12 times, and Sony f7 17 with short optical zoom is as long as 65438+. Some telephoto cameras are even equipped with anti-shake function, such as Canon S/KOLOC-0/,Panasonic FZ/KOLOC-0/0, etc., all of which have is or ois anti-shake function, and Konica Minolta A/KOLOC-0/,a2 as anti-shake function, which has a good effect in preventing hand-held vibration, but after the anti-shake function is turned on, the shutter speed of the camera will be reduced, and the shutter speed of the camera will be reduced in a dim stage environment. However, the use of flash in stage shooting is a controversial issue. First of all, the use of flash will affect the atmosphere of the scene, and may even be expelled from some more formal performances. In addition, if you shoot with a flash, the actors in front of the stage will appear bright and the background will be dark, which will not reflect the characteristics of the background; Moreover, when shooting with a flash, the actor presents a smooth lighting effect, and the image appears dull and three-dimensional. Therefore, in the process of taking stage photos, we should use the original lighting of the stage. In this way, the rangefinder can take a closer picture, and the wide-angle lens can get a big scene and a big impact. Both of them can be considered when shooting some special effects, but after using the rangefinder, the aperture of the camera lens will be reduced, which will affect the light entering, thus reducing the shutter speed. This is a problem that must be paid attention to. Tripod is widely used by some photographers when shooting on the stage because it can make the camera more stable. However, the inconvenience of tripod position change limits the flexibility of composition. Therefore, if we must ensure the stability of the camera, it is suggested to use a monopod instead of a tripod, which can make the camera more stable in the shooting process, without causing too much influence on mobility and occupying too much space. Finally, I want to say that compared with professional SLR cameras, it is very difficult for consumer digital cameras to shoot on stage, but it is also impossible to shoot well.
