What kind of digital camera can you use to take photos?

There is a saying in the jargon called "Equipment". In my opinion, conception, creativity and lighting are the differences. This is the difference in photography concept. Of course, the quality of the equipment can affect the clarity and resolution of the work, but it is one aspect that determines the success or failure of the work, or creativity and lighting.

For example, the work "Corner" was completed with an Olympus 50 point-and-shoot camera, which only has 5 million images. This film was selected for the 10th International Photography Art Exhibition; another example is "Auto The work "Legend" was completed with the same equipment and won the second prize in the cultural, sports and entertainment category of the "Human Contribution Award" annual competition organized by UNESCO.

Judging from the above two works, good grasp of creativity, composition, and lighting can make up for the shortcomings of non-professional cameras. The art of photography is not exclusive to the so-called "home" and professional equipment. Photography is a popular art that permeates our work, life and various fields. Beautiful and true momentary recording itself is the art of turning objects into images. It is difficult for some players to The profound people are so miraculous that they make mysteries on the immature so-called "photography theory" and are eager for quick success, which seriously violates the original theory of photography art. However, the meaning of "documentary photography" and "indoor and outdoor photography" lies in establishing this school. , go that route, put shackles on this immature art that should not belong to it, make it bend forward, and what is more serious is misleading the students.

For an art to move from immaturity to maturity, it requires a long process of repeatedly tempering practice and concepts, and extracting the essence, such as "Chinese painting", "Chinese calligraphy" and Western "oil painting". Cultural awareness is based on painting and writing. After centuries of continuous practice, re-practice, summary and re-summarization by countless artists, this art has been accepted by the broad masses of the people, regardless of its form of expression and theoretical basis. , the latter cannot transcend the positioning of this art. Looking at the art of photography in turn, I started to focus on documentary for a while, but was replaced by the so-called "pure art" in the middle and was stranded. Nowadays, people are going back and attaching more importance to documentary photography. This is the self-mockery of photography, and it is also a historical necessity, because documentary photography is the foundation of photographic art.

 

If you want to make your work larger, engage in picture art or more professional works, such as advertising films, aerial photography, etc., you will need a professional camera to complete it. In terms of equipment in this field, equipment costs tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars, and it is not a device that everyone can afford. As far as professional cameras with a price of less than 30,000 yuan are concerned, they are enough to create photographic art. For example, the studio commercial film "Diao Chan Worships the Moon" was completed with a Nikon D300.
