Automobile photography skills

1. If you want to shoot the composition of automobiles, try not to use wide-angle lenses or wide-angle lenses.

In order to reflect the lines of the car, when the car is the main object, it is necessary to use a lens with optical zoom of 100mm or DC three times, and the space of the telephoto lens is compressed, which is conducive to better expressing the lines of the car and better compressing the background and the car. However, using wide-angle lens is easy to cause distortion.

If you shoot with DC, you only need to use the limit of optical zoom, and it is useless to use digital zoom, which will affect the shooting effect.

This is an obvious example of using telephoto lens to compress space. The rough lines of the car are incisively and vividly integrated with the towering peaks behind them, as if on the same plane, but in fact they may be far apart.

2. Pay attention to composition and shooting position.

The car photos taken by many friends are not lively, mostly because of poor seat selection. If you shoot the front side of the car, it is best not to choose a position parallel to or slightly higher than the headlights. Generally, you use the low position to highlight the domineering of the car and reflect the overall line of the car through the high position.

According to the concept of space stereo aesthetics, when shooting the front of the car, the angle between the bumper and the straight line is larger, and the line on the side of the car is slightly smaller, so the car is the most beautiful.

Using this spatial composition and position, we can highlight the front face and body of the car and give the viewer a comprehensive perspective.

3. Rendering of the scene atmosphere.

To shoot a car, we must first find out its positioning, whether it is a family car, a commercial car, a sports car or an off-road vehicle. Only by knowing their positioning can we choose suitable scenes for them and shoot them in combination with the choice of seats.

The family car is outstanding and warm. You can choose to shoot in front of the cafe or in the courtyard of the villa. Commercial vehicles are differentiated, and you can choose to shoot in front of high-rise buildings or high-end office buildings in CBD; The sports car highlights the speed and can use dynamic synchronous photography on the road; Off-road vehicles need to be on deserts, rocks and slopes to show the performance of their tires and chassis. It is best to shoot in a low position.

When you choose the right scene, you are half successful before shooting.

4. Dynamic shooting highlights the body lines.

Dynamic synchronous photography is a difficult shooting method, but the photos obtained are full of beauty. It uses the synchronization of two cars or the blur of the background when the lens follows the car to reflect the speed.

Generally, it is best to have three people when shooting: the driver of the shooting car and the car being photographed, and the photographer. The camera can be fixed outside the car through a powerful suction cup, and the photographer can shoot by feeling through the remote control, so that he can shoot at a lower angle or in a rare position. You can also open the window of the camera car and fix the camera in the car to shoot.

5. Careful people pay attention to details.

All cars have their own design highlights, so many friends also like to take photos of some details of the car, such as the newly replaced wheels, the engine compartment full of mechanical beauty, the logo that embodies brand honor ... There are too many photos that can be taken on the car.
