Here are some free photography tips: ** 1. Equipment usage ** 1. As for the camera settings, if the camera was used for shooting, the "aperture priority" mode had a higher probability of being used, up to 80%, mainly used to control the depth of field; the shutter priority was about 15%, suitable for shooting control of dynamic subjects; the manual gear was only 5%, for example, it could be considered when the focus could not be accurately focused. If it was a phone, there was no need to master too many complicated functions. 2. Different exposure modes had different characteristics. In the automatic mode (Automatic), the shutter speed and aperture are automatically calculated by the camera. When shooting, you only need to confirm other elements before pressing the shutter. In the programmed automatic exposure mode (P), the camera automatically calculate the shutter speed and aperture combination, but the parameters can be modified. In the shutter priority mode (S or TV), the camera will automatically calculate the appropriate aperture size while keeping the set shutter speed unchanged. Aperture priority mode (A or LV) could keep the aperture size set unchanged and calculate the appropriate shutter speed. It was suitable for shooting portraits with a large aperture. Full manual (M) required the photographer to set the shutter speed and aperture by himself. He needed to be familiar with the combination of the two. ** 2. Basic photography theory ** 1. ** About exposure ** - Shutter: When the other parameters remain unchanged, the higher the shutter speed, the longer the light entry time, the more exposure, and the brighter the image; otherwise, the darker the image. - Aperture: The smaller the aperture parameters, the greater the amount of light entering, the more exposure, and the darker the image. At the same time, the size of the aperture affected the depth of field. The larger the aperture, the smaller the depth of field, and the more blurred the other objects except the subject. The smaller the aperture, the greater the depth of field, and the clearer the other objects except the subject. - <strong></strong>Increasing the sensitivity when the light was dark could solve the problem of slow shutter speed, but the higher the sensitivity, the more the picture quality might be lost and grainy. When there is sufficient light, the sensitivity is generally around 100 and should not exceed 3200 as much as possible (if the aperture is adjusted in M manual mode, the image is still dark after the shutter is closed, the sensitivity can be increased appropriately). There was a triangular relationship between the three. The higher the aperture value, the smaller the aperture, the smaller the amount of light entering, and the depth of the field. The higher the shutter value, the slower the shutter, the greater the amount of light entering, and the slower the speed. The higher the IQ value, the greater the amount of light entering, and the lower the quality of the image. 2. ** Focus related ** - Manual Focus (MV): It is suitable for shooting at a close distance and is more accurate. - Automatic focus: AF-S stands for single autofocus, which can be used for portrait, still life, and architectural shooting. When you press the shutter halfway and hear "beep", it means that the focus is successful, and then you can press the shutter completely. AF-C stands for continuous focus, which is used for moving objects, snapping people and animals. When shooting, the shutter is always pressed halfway to continue focusing. AF-A stands for smart (camera) autofocus, but it may be easy to make mistakes and cause out of focus. 3. ** White Balance ** - It can correct the color temperature and restore the color of the subject, so that the color of the shot under different light sources is similar to that of the human eye. - The overall color atmosphere could be adjusted by controlling the color temperature. The photos with a higher K value of the color temperature would be warm, and the photos with a lower K value of the color temperature would be cold. 4. ** Focus ** - The depth of field is related to the focal length. The smaller the focal length, the clearer the background and the greater the depth of field. Different focal lengths such as super wide angle, 24mm, 28mm, 35mm, 50mm, 85mm, 100mm, 135mm, 200mm, 300mm, etc. have different visual effects. 5. ** Photometering ** - Center Focus Average Metering: Generally, place the subject at the center of the picture to ensure correct exposure. Focus on the center of the picture, about 2/3 of the position. - [Rating: Metering: New and smart. It will measure the light on the screen evenly, but it is not suitable for large scenes.] - Spot Metering: Metering a spot (about 9% of the whole picture), used for silhouette, macro, etc. ** 3. In terms of composition ** 1. The horizontal composition has a sense of stability and strength; the vertical composition is solemn and dignified; the S-shaped composition is elegant and varied; the triangular composition (the right triangle is relatively empty and the sharp angle is stimulated); the rectangular composition is artificially harmonious; the circular composition is saturated with tension; the radiation composition has a sense of depth; the central composition has a clear main body and strong effect; the gradual composition has a sense of rhythm; the scattered composition is less constrained by the frame and can be freely developed outwards. 2. When shooting, for example, when taking a full-body photo, you can consider different composition methods, such as triangular composition. ** 4. Light utilization ** When shooting outdoors, the light angles in the morning and evening were the best, and the light quality was the softest. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
