3 simple steps to teach you to shoot beautiful starry sky.

1. camera

Micro-single SLR cameras that have been on the market in the past five years can shoot. It is important to pay attention to the high-sensitivity image quality, which is generally ISO 1600.

Most sensors are over an inch.

(Uncle used Fuji x 100t this time, which is a completely novice street beat. )

2. lens

Wide-angle large aperture lens. Aperture above 2.0 is best.

(The sample lens is a 35mm fixed-focus lens)

tripod

Stability can be weighed first, portability second, the bracket is simple to fix and has the function of height adjustment, and it is best to have a tripod head.

The tripod I chose is relatively light and can support SLR. There is a shock-absorbing tripod with a height of1.6m, which can be used as a monopod. )

4. Delay cable release

It is best to connect an external delay line to release. If your mobile phone can remotely operate the camera shutter time, it will also prevent jitter from taking a clearer starry sky. A treasure electronic shutter is about 20 yuan, and the mechanical one is cooler and more expensive.

(Uncle changed into his own iron hand this time, feeling that he was almost frozen into a vegetable. )

5. Warm clothes, food and water

Environmental choice:

1, away from light pollution: away from the city center.

2, high altitude, high latitude plateau or mountain top, or empty desert grassland.

If you don't want to go too far, go to the top of the mountain in the outer suburbs about 40km from the city center.

Uncle is at the top of the Ming Tombs in Changping District, which is not too remote. Be sure to be safe. )

3, the foreground scenery tips: generally shooting the starry sky, you will choose a ground landscape prospect as a reference, such as mountains, houses, trees, tower buildings and so on. This will help you to form a better composition more easily and avoid the monotony of a single starry sky.

4. about the moon: the so-called moon stars are rare. It's best to choose a night without the moon or when the moon is not there.

Shooting parameter settings:

M gear, manually focus and adjust the focus ∞, close the lens to stabilize the image,

Turn the aperture to the maximum.

Shutter time is generally less than 30s. If door B is to be used, it is recommended to use the cable to release it. Exposure for too long is not recommended unless you want an orbit.

ISO 1600-6400 or so.

Recommend related applications

Color matching:

Vsco and Lightroom (note that the software will directly modify and delete the original photo album): Adjust the exposure, brightness, details, sharpening and noise elimination based on the original photo album. The sharing of adjustment parameters is shown in the figure.

Butter camera: for adding text

Find your stars: starwalk, stellarium (computer version), TPE (computer version)

Try to shoot the star track with GoPro next time.
