How to take pictures in the museum

Many people who like cultural relics and history want to keep the beauty they saw when they went to the museum, so camera shooting is definitely indispensable. So how do you take pictures in the museum? How can I take beautiful pictures of cultural relics without damaging them? Let's take a look with Bian Xiao!

The choice of camera is a museum relic. This is more suitable for local close-ups of cultural relics.

The choice of lens can refer to Canon EF-S55-250mmf/4-5.6ISII, which is commonly known as telephoto in the three treasures of the poor.

This is the Buddha's face shot at a distance of 1.9 meters, so everything behind the glass cover turned black. Even if there is reflection, it won't be ugly at this time. It is also a high sense of 6400 and an entry-level SLR body. Doesn't it look so rough?

In fact, many museums are not allowed to take pictures in museums. Some museums can take pictures, but not flashlights. Generally, the wavelength of flashlight is less than 700 nanometers, which is likely to cause some damage to polymer cultural relics.

The usual shooting method in the museum is to turn off the flash and get as close as possible to the showcase glass (but don't touch it), which can minimize the reflection and increase the camera sensitivity, and use a slow shutter and a large aperture. This is a small cultural relic. The big cultural relics were too close to be photographed completely, so we had to back off. At this time, it depends on your kung fu with the camera.

In fact, the background behind this sitting dragon is very complicated, which can still be seen if you look closely, but it is not obvious after the telephoto is blurred by the depth of field.

It should also be noted that most of the cultural relics in the glass cabinet are illuminated by a single ceiling lamp, and metal cultural relics are easy to reflect light. At this time, a polarized light filter can effectively reduce reflection, especially when the lens is at a 45-degree angle with the cultural relics.

Try to wear black. If you can't stick the glass, please use a black cloth to block the reflection on the glass. If the light in the museum is ideal, it is better to turn down the aperture.

Remember, if the Song Museum explicitly forbids taking pictures, try not to take pictures, which is harmful to historical sites. In addition, try not to turn on the flash. Many museums have poor lighting for fear of damaging cultural relics.
