Photographing skills of SLR camera

Lead: With the popularity of travel, SLR cameras began to be welcomed by the public. SLR cameras have many functions and complicated operation. How do newcomers get started quickly? What introductory knowledge and photography skills should newcomers master? The following are the tips I have carefully arranged for you on how to take pictures with a SLR camera. Welcome to refer to them!

The correct posture for taking pictures

Keep your body stable and gently press the shutter with your fingers. It is often seen that when someone is taking pictures, the camera will tilt if the shutter is pressed too hard, so the photos taken are not clear enough in nine cases. A photographer should start from the posture of the camera, hold the camera with his nose and forehead, hold the lens steady with his left hand, grasp the handle with his right hand, and keep his left arm as close to his body as possible to play a supporting role.

Shoot in the highest precision format

Health +JPG is king. Pictures with high compression ratio will also affect the clarity. If the photos taken are important, please try to use RAW format or RAW+JPG format for preview. If you are confident in your photos and don't want to understand RAW in the future, use TIF, which is a lossless format. If you feel that the memory card capacity is limited, you have to shoot in JPG format, and try to choose the one with the highest accuracy and the lowest compression rate.

Shoot with a low ISO value

Low ISO is the guarantee of fine and clear photos. If you don't use a tripod, when the light is bad, increasing the ISO value will also increase the shutter speed accordingly. However, high ISO will produce noise and interference, reduce the quality of photos and affect the accuracy of imaging, so you should try to take photos with the lowest ISO value available. Of course, the premise is that the shutter value should be enough to ensure the clarity of the photo.

Shoot with a flash

Try not to hit directly with a flash. Although I don't like to use the flash, if the maximum aperture of the lens can't reach the safe shutter speed when the light is too dark, you should turn on the built-in flash or install the external flash to ensure the shutter speed. If the flash is not used properly, it will destroy the ambient light, and the imaging is too hard, so special attention should be paid to it in use. If there is an external flash, you can use the off-board hot shoe connection cable to illuminate the target side about half a meter above the lens, so that the shooting effect will be better.

Shoot with a safety shutter

Beginners try to use a safety shutter with twice the speed, so as to ensure that they will not take a fake. The so-called safety shutter is the lowest shutter speed that will not blur the photo because of the jitter of the hand when shooting with a hand-held camera. The safety shutter is equal to the reciprocal of the equivalent focal length (safety shutter = 1/ equivalent focal length). For example, the Quan Huafu fuselage uses a lens with a focal length of 50mm, and the safety shutter speed is 1/50 seconds; If it is an APS-C frame fuselage, it should be multiplied by the focal length factor, that is, 50mm becomes the equivalent focal length of 75mm, and the safety shutter is 1/75 seconds. Of course, experienced veterans can often take clear photos at a speed lower than the safe shutter speed, which is the so-called "iron hand work".
