How to teach yourself systematically in the later stage of photography

Step 1: Do you need a camera or want to learn photography? There are two things to look at here. 1, if you need to add a camera with better functions and clearer shooting just because the mobile phone or card can't meet the shooting requirements, then SLR is not recommended here. If you don't plan to learn photography systematically, SLR is just a burden for you to take pictures. It's complicated, it needs some professional knowledge to use, and it also needs some energy in the later stage. Micro-sheets recorded in daily life are enough. Now you can buy a machine with the same definition as an entry-level SLR for about 5,000 yuan, which is light, small and portable enough for daily use. 2. If you really like taking pictures and like photography, you plan to learn it as a hobby, and you also plan to make some investments appropriately. That suggestion is to buy a mid-range SLR, and the price is about seven or eight thousand yuan. If conditions are better, you can go to Quan Huafu in one step. Personally, I don't think it's a good choice to learn photography systematically. Many of the image quality of entry-level SLR is not much better than that of micro-single at the same price, but it sacrifices volume and portability. There is little difference in the function of micro-orders with the same price, except that the lens group has certain advantages and there is not much substitution. Mid-range SLR can experience more functions for photography majors to improve in the future. Therefore, after selecting the equipment in the first step, we should consider clearly whether to learn photography or record with a camera, and make a rational choice according to our own situation, so that we can toss about the equipment in the future, and it will waste the economy if we sell and buy it. As for which brand to buy, Canon and Nikon are the most common SLR brands in Chinese mainland. There is no good saying, they are all half a catty, but they are all worth a penny. The expensive ones are definitely better than the cheap ones. So you can choose what you can afford according to your own budget. Personally, I don't think Nikon is suitable for taking scenery and Canon is suitable for taking portraits. Color difference can be solved by white balance drift and later period. Each series has its own characteristics. Go and compare for yourself and buy which style you like. Don't pay too much attention to other people's suggestions. Step 2: I bought some equipment before learning photography, and I want to know a few questions before I plan to start learning photography, so as to rationally establish a photography learning plan and ideas. Photography looks simple, just as simple as pressing the shutter, but the basic skills and experience behind it need long-term accumulation and learning. In my opinion, there are the following misunderstandings in photography learning in the circle of domestic photographers: 1, parameter party: Ask the parameters first when you see a good film, which is a big misunderstanding. The exposure parameters of any photo are related to the light at that time. The light, angle, luminosity and even different machines are different, and this parameter is also different. You can't 100% copy the other party's light angle at that time, so the parameters are basically invalid. And the same exposure can also be done with different combination parameters. Of course, the final effect is different, but it doesn't mean it's not beautiful. Therefore, parameters are not very helpful to photography learning, but will restrict many people from practicing exposure experience hard. They are always obsessed with parameters. After shooting for many years, they still can't establish their own exposure experience, and they have been imitating and never surpassing it. I have written two articles about exposure in a row before, and I also shared a two-hour exposure class, emphasizing that I must know why, so that I can draw inferences from others and become a family. 2, crash party: with the shooting record, you can crash, no matter how you shoot, don't worry about technical problems, just shoot what you like. But if you really want to learn photography systematically, there is no quick way. Although online advertisements are overwhelming, things learned in a few days, and things shared by friends, you will be proficient in photography after learning these things, but people with a little rational thinking and a little education should know that they are all advertisements selling slides. You can see that many old birds on the forum are big movies at once, and most of them have been playing photography for at least five or six years, seven or eight years or even ten or twenty years, and have accumulated considerable experience. I didn't buy equipment, and I did it in one step, even better than most people's, because I have money and can be willful. But the accumulation of knowledge and wisdom cannot be bought with money, and no one can replace it. You can only accumulate and learn by yourself. You can make small achievements in two or three years, and you can shoot well in three or five years. This is rapid accumulation. This mentality must be straightened out. The society is impetuous, and everyone is eager for quick success, but it is unrealistic to be eager for quick success. Good things always slow down the work, craftsmen. You see, pop charts always change quickly, but classic things can be deposited for many years, because pop culture itself belongs to fast food culture. Its advantage is that it spreads quickly and is easy to be accepted, but the problem is that the thickness of the deposit is not enough, and it is quickly forgotten and boring. According to my experience of studying photography for more than ten years, most of the people who played photography together at the beginning sold their equipment and stopped playing. Only a few people persisted and became old birds. The third step: establish a three-year photography learning idea and plan with a peaceful mind. Most people are not professional photographers, but just take photography as a hobby to increase the fun of life. So, don't worry, let the camera take your life slowly, which is a great pleasure in itself. Learning ideas mainly start from three aspects: 1, composition: composition has little to do with blunt instrument technology. Although there are many theories such as composition, it is difficult to apply them in actual shooting. Composition is more about the aesthetics of the perceptual world. Shoot whatever you think looks good. It's really a toddler to hold a camera and entangle the composition method. You may not have learned that essence, but you have lost yourself. Practicing composition is the first step. If you are a novice, don't worry about the accuracy of the exposure. Practice your composition first. In the first half of the year, you can use automatic gear or first gear. First, make the photos beautiful, and then slowly experience the fun of exposure in the process of composition. 2, exposure: exposure is more technical and rational than composition, learning needs a system, you can refer to my previous exposure posts and exposure sharing classes. Slowly realize, but on the whole, he is also a skilled worker. After understanding the basic principles, he will practice for a long time and experience for himself. Personally, I still suggest practicing my composition first. You can first establish perceptual beauty and gain self-confidence, and then chew rational knowledge without asking for exposure. Newcomers often take a photo of Sean, and the reason for dark light and unstable exposure is that they don't understand the problem of photometry. If you really know photometry, you need to learn it rationally, such as photometry, reference notes and online posts. I have also shared the problem of systematic metering before. Then practice patiently for a long time. I remember it took me three or four years to learn about photometry from college to graduation. Of course, most of my friends can do it in half a year. The important thing is not to give up. 3, study plan: study plan is very important, take three months as a cycle, first familiarize yourself with the camera, then practice composition, and then exposure, after nine months, you can basically get started. In the next three or two years, take as many photos as possible, then look at your own photos, compare the photos of your favorite masters, and compare the gaps. There are many gaps that are not technical, but more emotional and aesthetic. Technology can be studied and practiced hard, but artistic and aesthetic things need to be accumulated slowly. Literature, art and fine arts can all improve aesthetics, mainly depending on their own practice. References:
