Why is the mobile phone photography competition like "pediatrics"?

Is the mobile phone photo contest a pediatrician? I think it is ignorance of the times and the development of science and technology to say such things.

I study photography. First, I use a folding single-lens film camera, and then I use a double-lens 120 camera. 1984 finally bought a second-hand 135 SLR. This camera used to have built-in metering, but because others have used it for several years, the built-in metering is broken, and the exposure during shooting depends on their own experience. Black and white film is also acceptable. When shooting with colored glue, there will often be overexposure or underexposure, which will make the photos not full of color. We develop all the black and white photos ourselves. Because the equipment is simple and the temperature can't be controlled, the film is often over-developed or under-developed. Therefore, people who played photography at that time, regardless of their artistic level, were technically not to be underestimated.

Later, the digital camera came out. At first, everyone called it a fool camera, which means that fools can take good photos with it. This thing was looked down upon by many old photographers at first, but with the development of time and digital camera technology, it is not only accepted by everyone, but also inseparable from it.

The same is true for mobile phone photography. Although the technology is not mature enough, there is still a long way to go with digital SLR in many aspects, but in some aspects, mobile phone photography still has advantages. For example, body photography, street sweeping and traveling, because mobile phones are easy to carry and concealed, which is much more convenient than cameras.

For the emergence of a new thing, there are always people who don't understand it at first, and some people despise it. After a long time, they will naturally accept it.

For the pursuit of art, there is no distinction between adults and pediatrics. Fairy tales, fables, folk stories, children's songs and children's novels in literature are often regarded as pediatrics, but it is these pediatrics that have produced countless masterpieces.

We should expect that mobile phone photography can also take amazing photos.

Why is the mobile phone photography competition like "pediatrics"? Can you say that? Since it is a photo contest, isn't the mobile phone camera about composition, color, light and shadow? Since we talk about composition, color, light and shadow, is the mystery of knowledge enough for you to drink a pot? How can it be "pediatrics"? Ok, let's not talk about color, light and shadow, composition. It is purely an interesting shooting competition to see who shoots something novel and who shoots something exciting, but it can only be regarded as a shutter competition, not a strict photography competition at all! For a serious photographer, no matter he is a practitioner or an amateur, as long as he picks up a camera or a mobile phone and prepares to shoot (the mobile phone is just a camera with different carriers), there is no such thing as "pediatrics". You have to follow the basic laws of photography creation, and you have to accumulate a little knowledge into a ladder to climb the ideal mountain. Therefore, as long as it is serious photography, there will be no "pediatrics", and there will be no "pediatrics" competition!

The biggest feature of mobile phone photography is its small size and portability. Even in today's increasingly popular micro-single, its convenience is irreplaceable. So this is also an important reason why there are more and more mobile phone shots, anytime and anywhere, without any restrictions.

Natural scenery, flowers, mountains and rivers, sky and moon, bridges, roads, old houses, portraits, still lives, animals, etc. There are too many, you can shoot anything. In principle, our photography is to express an idea or emotion through photos, or to record a moment and present a sense of beauty. In other words, photography is equivalent to writing an article, and photos are equivalent to words, but with different expressions.

As for how to shoot, what to shoot and how to shoot, it's up to you.

Personally, I usually take more pictures of scenery, sky and flowers, and I also like to take pictures of night scenes, street corners, and things like the moon, starry sky, sunrise and sunset, but there are few portraits. These are common in all seasons and belong to the generous gift of nature. Therefore, as long as you like and love this line and are good at discovering, what others think is normal may be completely different in your lens.

Anyone who thinks that the mobile phone photography contest is a pediatrician means that he is an amateur, not even an amateur. Photography is the art of light and shadow and composition. No matter what you take, the first factor of a good photo is the story and the composition of light and shadow, not the camera or mobile phone.

I haven't participated in the mobile phone photography contest, and I don't know which mobile phone photography contest is pediatrics. From the development history of photography art, the progress of photography art is related to the technical progress of photographic equipment, but it is not necessarily related to the successful creation of photographic works. Photographers express their specific subjective consciousness through their own photographic works, so they become photographic works of art. Photographic equipment is just a tool for photographers to create works, just as ink and ink inkstone are just a tool for calligraphers to create calligraphy works. There is no such thing as a good pen and ink inkstone will produce a good calligraphy work, and there is no such thing as a good photographic equipment will produce a good photographic work. The key to the success of artistic creation is the creator himself rather than his creative tools. The early photographic tools of human beings can't be compared with the present photographic equipment in technical level, but this doesn't affect the emergence of unparalleled photographers and immortal masterpieces. Therefore, whether you shoot with a mobile phone, with an ordinary camera or with a high-end professional camera, it is possible to shoot high-quality products and blockbusters. A photo contest that specifies the works that must be photographed with a mobile phone to participate in the competition does not necessarily have no fine works or blockbusters. Therefore, it can't be said that the mobile phone photography competition is a pediatrics. No matter what kind of photo contest it is, whether it is level or not, the key is not what equipment the entries are created with, but whether the organizers and their judges are professional.

Hello, I'm mother Jingyang, and I'm glad to answer your question.

First of all, I think what you said about "pediatrics" is an analogy, which means that mobile phone photography looks unprofessional. My views are as follows.

1 Is it a human mind or is it more framed?

Because the word photography first appeared to refer to professional photos taken by professional people with professional cameras, people's thoughts have been solidified and framed for a long time, and when it comes to photography, they think of professional cameras. Mobile phone photography, which everyone can shoot, is not so professional, giving people a feeling of "naivety".

2 is the difference between camera and mobile phone photography group.

The price and non-necessity of the camera determine that it is only a professional equipment used by a few people, while the mobile phone has become a necessity because of the development of the times. The camera function of mobile phone has become a particularly common and casual thing. It is precisely because of this randomness that mobile phone photography will appear "naive".

However, I think with people's demand for convenience and quality of products, mobile phone photography will become more and more popular and professional.

The above is my opinion, I hope I can help you, thank you!

Not necessarily a pediatrician, there may be a master! Don't talk about heroes with tools!

Photography has no such distinction!

Whether shooting with a mobile phone or a SLR, the final comparison is not the equipment and skills, but the profound connotation of the work and the author's artistic attainments. Without cultural background and artistic accomplishment, it is useless to shoot with any equipment. That's the real pediatrics.

Mobile phone shooting and SLR camera shooting, in a sense, are the same except for the bottom point, and there are also problems such as light, shadow and composition. Just like street shooting, mobile phones are more convenient.
