Shooting Skills of Apple Mobile Phone at Night Scene

Many people like photography and can take good photos at ordinary times, especially at night. Here are some articles I collected for you about the night shooting skills of Apple's mobile phone, hoping to help you. If you feel good, you can share it with more friends!

I. Choice of time and place

In landscape photography, timing is the most important. Taking pictures at night requires a tripod and a slow door, so it will be more laborious to move than taking pictures during the day. Therefore, it is particularly important to quickly find the right shooting location and shoot the desired theme.

Second, it was dark.

After dark, the shooting content is relatively fixed:

1, guangxingmang

"Street lamp" is the best model shot by Xingmang, and it is definitely right to take it as the main creative theme.

2, the lamp light belt

With a tripod and a long exposure, you can shoot a flowing light band, which is relatively easy.

3. Because the subject matter of shooting is relatively simple, there needs to be some breakthroughs in composition at this time, which will be discussed below.

Third, the problem of light difference.

The problem of poor light is the most troublesome problem in dusk shooting. I am lazy and greedy, hoping to take the most photos in the least time. So unimportant scenes are usually shot without filters. What if the light ratio between the sky and the ground is too large without gradient filter? Shake the black card. Well, it's an idea, but it's still troublesome. Generally speaking, I like it: later stage.

But it's late, and taking pictures can't be completely willful. At this time, you need to make a choice: let the sky be exposed normally and the ground be dark, or let the ground be exposed normally and the sky be overexposed?

This involves the long-debated question of "exposure to the left or exposure to the right" in photography.

1 The sky is normally exposed and the ground is dark.

Focus the lens on the sky, and your photos usually look like this:

The sky was exposed normally and the ground was dark.

Some people say that this is a silhouette, yes, but I don't like silhouettes, so I use my post-software in raw format to pull the shadows back. If I am a photographer with jpg straight out, I can choose to use curves to pull back the shadow.

Advantages: simple, just use the whole curve to brighten the dark part.

Disadvantages: This is very important. Due to the working principle of the camera recording light, the color information of the dark part cannot be recorded by the camera in this way, resulting in high noise in the dark part. Local amplification, high noise.

2 The ground exposure is normal and the sky is overexposed.

Aim at the dark part to measure light, so that the highlights of the photo will be brighter:

But in this way, the color information of the photo is completely recorded, and the sky will be masked later.

Advantages: Dark details are well preserved. If the sky is handled well, there will be fewer defects in the whole work after enlargement.

Disadvantages: the requirements for the later stage are higher, the dark part is enlarged, there is no noise, the sky part is enlarged, and the details are well preserved.

You may ask, if you turn down the aperture and expose it for a few seconds, the stars will come out. What can you say?

In fact, if you want to take a night view, it is important to consider not only the focal length, wide angle and lens blade.

4 aperture

Shooting the stars is not that the smaller the aperture, the better. Only the right aperture can shoot a beautiful star.

5 composition details

When shooting night scenes, there are many light sources, which easily become the interference factor of the picture. At this time, the composition is even more challenging. My advice to you here is: shoot only one protagonist and remove the extra details.
