What is the psychology that street shooting likes to shoot telephoto?

Engaged in camera photography 10 years. From the perspective of my family, I can see that their main psychology is as follows:

1.x, long guns and short guns are so professional and tall for people who don't know how to do it! Bah! The same psychological behavior also includes street shooting in various photographic vests, especially those printed with various famous media signs, which are resolutely and uniformly classified as X psychology.

2. Peeping into private affairs, specifically capturing all kinds of private behaviors of girls and showing them off everywhere, this kind of person is the worst! The scum of this industry.

I really don't want to post bad pictures. . . . .

The telephoto helps to blur the background, better highlight the subject and show the most natural state of the subject. This is really the psychology of people with telephoto. I've seen many such photos, which are different from sweeping the street with heads.

If it's street shooting, it's best to shoot models and stars, because models and stars are much more expressive in front of the camera than ordinary people, and the distance is short to communicate with the subject. It is also possible to set up a Jiao Da aperture head.

I like mobile phone street shooting and close-up sneak shots, because mobile phones are small, portable and hidden. As long as the composition and focus are done quickly enough, there will be no embarrassment, although I am also a shy person. But I still want to be closer to the subject, because I have a chance to know the story behind the subject when I am close. Besides, I don't have the habit of scratching when I see beautiful women in the street. I like to record ordinary life and stories. Of course, I don't have a telephoto, only a dog's head, which I don't need when sweeping the street.

Many people don't realize that the photographer walked around the street with a cannon lens and saw a sexy and enchanting girl click like a tiger. This is a morbid psychology of showing off and pretending to be X.

Of course, this kind of person is not excluded, and this kind of psychology is sweeping the street. In fact, there are very few such people, especially those who have played telephoto street sweeping in recent years. They are basically photography hobbies or photography creations. The medium telephoto lens is not a local tyrant lens. The real local telephoto lens and super telephoto lens are both shooting birds by the lake or shooting competitions on the sports ground. Therefore, if you really pretend to be X and sweep the street with a super telephoto, it is estimated that everyone will laugh.

It is completely appropriate and normal to take street shots with a telephoto lens of 70-200mm.

Use this lens to sweep the street, shoot the subject and the subject, and shoot portraits and telephoto scenes more clearly. Generally, most people take portraits with telephoto and blur.

The advantages of street shooting with medium telephoto are:

First, long focal length, large aperture, shallow depth of field, large compression, and finally, good focus definition, Jiao Wai melting. This is a very necessary focus for shooting outdoor portraits.

Second, the personal privacy and copyright requirements of street shooting. Although China people don't know enough about portrait rights and privacy rights. But walking in the street and being photographed at will is also quite disgusting. At this time, the advantages of telephoto lens are reflected, which can be far away from the subject without causing pressure and discomfort to the model.

Here, I want to emphasize that if you find that you are filming a street photographer and show dissatisfaction, you must stop shooting immediately; If I shoot a young lady in the street, I usually smile when the young lady looks at me, get her permission, and then continue shooting, so I won't be embarrassed.

Why is Sanlitun in Beijing a holy place to shoot beautiful women in the street? First, there are many sexy and avant-garde beautiful women there. Second, the beauty there has a high degree of acceptance and cooperation in being photographed. Maybe many young ladies just want to shoot well.

So from this point of view, it is the most suitable choice to take street portraits with telephoto lenses. Some people will say that telephoto street shooting has the psychology of wanting to sneak a peek. There is no denying that telephoto does have this advantage, so you must be careful when taking portraits.

I seldom shoot strangers in the street. I usually ask models to shoot in the street, mainly for unnecessary trouble. The key is that strangers can't cooperate with your shooting as highly as models, and the guarantee of the film is extremely difficult. If you are really addicted to street shooting, you can shoot more auto shows and large-scale activities. After all, you can shoot anywhere, and no one will look down on you and dislike you.

What psychology is it to shoot with telephoto street? We have to distinguish the advantages of telephoto lens in street shooting first.

We all know that telephoto lenses can quickly pull into distant scenes. When shooting in the street, we can quickly capture people in the distance with a telephoto lens. In fact, you can use any lens for street shooting, but if you want to shoot some close-ups of people, you need to get very close, and you may have to say hello to people in the street when shooting, otherwise it may cause unnecessary trouble.

The telephoto lens can shoot portraits at a distance of 10 meter, and can capture the most real moment without disturbing the people. Maybe this one is suspected of being photographed. Especially street shooters, there may be legal disputes. In fact, as far as the photographer's mentality is concerned, the telephoto lens still wants to keep a certain distance from the subject.

The telephoto lens has a very narrow viewing angle, which can effectively shield the interference factors around the characters when shooting in the street. If you shoot with a wide-angle lens, it may bring a lot of foreground environment. Just use the narrow perspective of telephoto lens to lock the main body of the character. It is very helpful for composition.

A telephoto lens can bring a strong shallow depth of field effect and a sense of spatial compression. With a large aperture, it can be said that there are many gas cutting machines. Taking portraits is our common choice. In fact, it is not to encourage blind shallow depth of field sugar water. However, in street shooting, certain background blur can effectively highlight the characters and further capture their life forms.

In general, the focusing speed of telephoto lens is very fast. For example, every family has 70-200 lenses, and focusing can be said to be fast, accurate and stable. In the case of street shooting characters moving constantly, better lens focusing speed ensures a higher success rate.

Finally, there is another possibility that some people think telephoto lenses are more professional. For example, canon white gun seems to be recognized by many girls …

Street shooting is basically a telephoto or a small wide angle. Let me go. I choose telephoto, which is psychologically easy to explain.

1, compared with small wide angle, prefers the imaging characteristics of telephoto, which can pull in the sense of space, blur the background and highlight the subject;

2. In order not to disturb the subject;

3, I am also thin-skinned, embarrassed to be close to shooting;

4. I can't control the snapshot composition of small wide angle, and telephoto still has a chance to catch up.

As for the upstairs teacher's pretending to be X, there must be such people, but they are also a minority. To tell the truth, street shooting often uses 70-200. What can this hold?

Only a few people can afford those really expensive super telephoto lenses, and I guess they are too lazy to install them.

Street shooters like to take telephoto lenses. I think there are the following kinds of hearts.

1. Shoot with a trap. This shooting method is suitable for open areas. Pedestrians have a wide range of activities. Find the foreground in advance and wait for the right person to appear in the composition. This can effectively avoid the embarrassment of short-focus shooting and will not attract the attention of pedestrians.

2, shy at work, there are actually many such people, no one wants to take a 24-lens shot to the face when going out, which is very prone to accidents. Just observe from a distance with a telephoto lens and press the shutter when appropriate.

3, a novice, but unfortunately no model appeared when buying a lens, so I had to take a telephoto scan.

4. showing off your heart is at work. Some people like to walk around major parks and scenic spots with a cannon, and like to shuttle through various fashionable shopping places. It doesn't matter whether it's good or not. It is important for you to see that my equipment is still very good.

All these mental activities will lead to the use of telephoto to sweep the street. After all, sweeping the street has a certain risk factor, and it is very impolite to shoot at others directly. Therefore, it is better to have a telephoto hiding in a safe corner and quietly waiting for the opportunity to appear. In addition, it is to show off your mind.

Street shooting originated in Europe and America, and people in the street are dressed in fashion, beauty, self-confidence and publicity. So when facing the camera, they tend to be more enthusiastic and generous. Some people even pose with photographers. Therefore, foreign photographers recommend using 35mm lens for street shooting and scanning, which is very real. Wow.

That is to say, street shooters don't like to take telephoto lenses, but if you shoot people with 35mm, they may kick you. If there is no way, you can only buy 70-200. Once found, you can give yourself a safe escape distance.

As for some photographers who shoot telephoto, it should also be a kind of ambivalence that they are afraid of being rejected, afraid of being discovered, and like to shoot beautiful women and good stories they meet.

It must be said that every country and every place has different cultural cognition. This kind of cognition is not unreasonable. You have your reasons, and I have my hobbies. Don't invade at will, just watch from a distance, don't be ridiculous.

The above is just a personal opinion, which makes sense. Please give me a compliment. Thanks for your support.

This is my mentality, hahaha!

In fact, I think this kind of psychology is quite normal! Why?

1, to avoid embarrassment. Although my lens basically never takes pictures of beautiful women, it is inevitable to take pictures of streets, buildings and light and shadow, including pedestrians to make up the map. A stranger suddenly took a shot in front of you. After all, China people are more shy and embarrassed than foreigners. I'm too shy to change, so I'll just take a long shot and everyone will be relaxed!

2, even if it is telephoto, I will not go out and face the cannon. It's embarrassing enough that I haven't filmed it yet. The roadside aunt's eyes and expressions are paparazzi! So I had a fever for a long time and finally chose Nikon 24- 120F4. This focal length is just right, not heavy! Not conspicuous! Far and near! The imaging is also good! A constant F4 is enough! Perfect for my choice difficulty!

When the lens is chosen, everything will not be entangled. Sweeping the street or traveling! Don't worry about changing the lens every time you shoot something! Only composition, only light, only histogram! This is the sense of photography I want!
