EOS 70D focal length: 35mm aperture: f/4 shutter:1/60seconds ISO 3200 flip the screen and lift the camera over your head.

Equipment preparation

What kind of camera is suitable for taking portraits? In the opinion of many experts, any kind of camera can take a good portrait. However, for most of us, the choice of camera should be more targeted.

Portraits are actually divided into many categories if they are to be subdivided, and some are filmed indoors with large flashlights; Some people like outdoor portraits with pure natural light; There are also flashers who like to create with small shoes-ironing lamps. ......

If you love traveling portraits, EOS 100D and EOS M are the first choices. If you like commercial tent shooting, you can choose EOS 5D Mark III, a high-performance machine. If the pursuit of comprehensive performance and cost performance, I recommend the Canon EOS 70D camera.

EOS 70D is equipped with a new CMOS sensor in APS-C format, with 20.2 million pixels, and its detail performance is very good. A 3-inch touch flip screen with a pixel of 1.03 million is used on the back of the fuselage, which can help you to take photos from all angles more conveniently.

Make good use of EOS 70D flip screen and Wi-Fi remote control, you can shoot many angles that others can't.

In addition, it also inherits EOS 7D's 19-point full cross focusing system, and also has a brand-new? Full pixel dual core? Two-pixel CMOS autofocus system, some people's dynamic snapshots can also be easily done. Besides, compared with Quan Huafu, it is small in size and light in weight, so it can be said that its comprehensive performance and cost performance are excellent. It is very suitable to choose this machine to shoot portraits.

Tip 1: Pay attention to the composition and cut it properly.

Some people can shoot the same camera lens, even the same parameter scene, while others can shoot it very ugly, which is the decisive role of composition on the picture. Generally speaking, don't put characters in the middle of the picture (of course not absolutely). It is often best to choose the golden section of the picture to place the subject (see bottom left).

Generally speaking, few people can make the composition perfect in the early stage, and most of them need to do appropriate post-editing. At this time, the 20.2 megapixel EOS 70D has more advantages. Higher pixels can give you more space for later cropping, which is very important.

EOS 70D focal length: 60mm aperture: f/8 shutter:1/8seconds ISO 100.

If you can't always master the composition, you can turn on the composition auxiliary line built in the camera. You can choose to divide the picture into nine equal parts or other forms of composition auxiliary lines, and then determine the best position of the subject according to the auxiliary lines.

Tip 2: control the light ratio and find light.

Generally speaking, the exposure latitude of a camera is between 5 and 7, so it is inevitable to avoid scenes with large light ratio when shooting. Then give priority to the normal exposure of the model's face and avoid the overexposed sky when composing.

If it is natural light to take portraits, cloudy days are a very good time to create. If you choose to shoot under a tree on a cloudy day, due to insufficient illumination, you need to slow down the shutter speed and improve ISO to ensure exposure. Generally speaking, ISO 1600 is safe for EOS 70D. With a large aperture lens, such ISO is completely sufficient.

EOS 70D focal length: 50mm aperture: f/2.8 shutter:1/80seconds ISO 800 Choosing cloudy days or shooting in the shade of trees requires appropriate improvement of ISO.

If it is indoors, a simple window can give you a very soft lighting effect. Let the model face the window slightly to illuminate most of her face, and fill the light with bright medium on the other side.

We recommend using the automatic ISO mode of EOS 70D. The camera will automatically match ISO according to the scene and aperture value, saving you a lot of trouble. Set the lowest shutter speed to 1/30 seconds, and then use AV file (that is, aperture priority shooting) to directly control the depth of field with aperture. All you need to do is shoot as many as you want.

Tip 3: No shallow depth of field, wide-angle and fresh.

When taking portrait photos, most people will use telephoto lenses and large aperture lenses to create a very shallow depth of field to highlight the model. This kind of photo is beautiful, but a group of photos are all like this, which is boring. Portraits do not represent large aperture and telephoto blur. Sometimes taking pictures of some scenes with a wide-angle lens can give people a different feeling. Wide-angle and unique perspective can also help you create more visual photos.

EOS 70D focal length: 18mm aperture: f/5.6 shutter: 1/200 seconds ISO 200 wide-angle perspective can be used by everyone? Ernie's long legs?

You can shoot from the top with a wide-angle lens, and you can form a very interesting portrait photo by using the spatial perspective relationship. In addition, taking full-length portraits of wide-angle and backhand angles can draw the proportion of the figure. Is everyone? Long-legged Obama? ! In terms of equipment, EOS 70D is equipped with a brand-new EF-S 10- 18mm lens, which is excellent in distortion control and edge image quality performance.

Tip 4: No light? Create light!

As we all know, photography is playing with the art of light and shadow. But in fact, there is not always suitable natural light. At this time, you need to create light. This is often the difference between photographers and ordinary people. Professional photographers can use various tools to copy accidental scenes at any time and anywhere!

Although EOS 70D has its own built-in flash, because the position of the overhead light cannot be changed, the emergency fill light is enough, and an external flash is needed to create a more beautiful lighting effect when shooting.

It is necessary to peel off the relatively messy background with a large aperture. With the help of external flash, not only the skin color of the model can be accurately restored, but also the shadows of various parts can be eliminated. It's really a killer for indoor portraits. If you use a circular flash, the circular highlight effect formed by the lamp tube in your eyes will definitely be the finishing touch of the picture.

Tip 5: continuous shooting chased Coke, and he got it by accident.

The article is natural and ingenious. Sometimes, the birth of a good photo is really an accident. Many excellent photos are captured rather than posed. So generally speaking, when we take a portrait, we don't directly tell the model what kind of posture you need, but talk to her, interact with her and fully mobilize our emotions before posing. Hey? Such photos are often more natural and infectious.

Yunfei focal length: 135mm aperture: f/2 shutter: 1/200 seconds ISO 400 can fully mobilize the mood of the model and let you shoot more vivid works.

It should be noted that you need to switch the focus mode to tracking focus (AF-C mode on Canon camera), because your subject may be constantly moving at this time, and a single focus may lead to out-of-focus situation. In addition, you must use a partner. The maximum continuous shooting speed of EOS 70D is 7 frames per second. Believe me, at this speed of continuous shooting, it's hard for you to miss any wonderful moment.

After reading the raiders, did you find that it doesn't seem very complicated to take a good portrait photo? In fact, photography is like this. With the development of technology, the obstacles that may be encountered in shooting have been solved by various advanced functions of manufacturers. All you need to do is understand these functions and enjoy shooting.
