Night photography skills of Sony micro camera

The night gave me black eyes, but I used them to look for light. Some people like the beauty of the night. At night, a little candlelight or stars in the sky exude infinite charm, attracting people with good color to explore.

Although the night scene is beautiful, it is not easy for photographers, especially those who are new to photography, to take beautiful photos at night. I believe everyone has had the experience of underexposure, blur and color cast when taking pictures at night.

Then I will help you understand how to solve similar problems through two cases:

1, accurate exposure

It's almost August 15, and the moonlit night is a good time to take pictures. However, when we lift the camera on the moon and press the shutter, it is very likely that we will take such a photo:

The moon is so big, like a cake. . . Although it is true that the moon was completely photographed, it always feels as if it is not particularly beautiful. The photographed moon seems to be much brighter than what the naked eye sees.

At this time, you can use spot metering mode to shoot:

Click the FN key on the fuselage, find the metering mode, and select the spot metering mode after entering. At this point, we will return to the viewfinder screen, and you can see a small circle in the center of the screen. At this time, if we aim the circle at the moon, the brightness will drop. With this model, we can shoot the moon with such clear details.

Step 2 clear photos

Because the light source at night is very complicated, there are bright neon lights and bright places. In order to keep the picture clean, we generally don't use very high ISO. Even with a large aperture, the shutter speed is difficult to reach the speed of taking pictures during the day. It is often necessary to shoot with a shutter of110s or even slower, and it is difficult to shoot clearly with a hand unless training is carried out.

The function of tripod is self-evident. We just need to fix the camera on a tripod to take pictures stably. Now you can see that most of the night photos are taken with tripods. With a tripod, we can slow down the shutter speed unscrupulously, or we can use a lower ISO and a smaller aperture. Small aperture, low ISO's excellent display of picture details and the special performance of stable slow shutter for moving objects can add a lot of color to photos.

Let's take a look at a photo of Miao Gang, a micro-lecturer in our company:

In addition, when shooting with a tripod, I suggest that you can turn on another function, "Time shooting". In fact, everyone often uses this function. When we go out to play or get together and want to take a group photo, but no one can help us press the shutter, everyone will use this function. When shooting at night, it is often a slow door. This function is also very useful. The tripod is used to stabilize the camera, but when we press the shutter, we will definitely do something to the camera. After the timer shooting function is turned on, the camera will wait for a few seconds after pressing the shutter before starting shooting. During this time, the camera will stabilize itself and ensure that the photos are clearer. (So there is no need to use cable release. )

But remind everyone that using tripods on ships and bridges will not be very effective, because the ship itself is shaking when sailing, and there is a garage on the bridge, even using tripods is difficult to take a clear picture.

Another problem that may lead to unclear photos at night is focusing. Because it is shot at night, in low light environment, the autofocus of the camera sometimes does not focus exactly where we want to focus, resulting in blurred photos.

In order to get a clearer picture, we choose to use manual focusing mode at this time. You can find it at camera-mfhelp &; Open several functions in. Peak focusing helps us to focus the picture clearly at night.

The above night shooting skills are only the most basic. If you want to take very beautiful night photos, you can also install a zoom mirror, a gradient mirror and Sony micro-single APP software to achieve more perfect results.
