beginners photography competitions

Here are some useful tips for beginners in photography: - ** Shooting Practice **: - They were more familiar with each other and easier to communicate with. They could cooperate with you according to your thoughts. - There were more unknowns and possibilities on the street. You could choose to take pictures of passers-by from a fixed camera position, or take pictures while walking to practice your ability to discover beauty. - Practice capturing light and shadows. Photographer is an art of light and shadow. You have to capture light and shadow both indoors and outdoors. When there is light, you can press the shutter. - Learning how to take pictures of people's backs to convey their emotions was a very successful technique. - He was constantly trying out new shooting styles, such as changing from portraits to scenery or still life, or changing from a refreshing style to a retro Hong Kong style, so as to prevent his photography skills from stagnating. - ** In terms of camera selection **: - If it was a half-frame user, they could start with a wide-angle lens equivalent to a full-frame 24mm lens (such as a 16mm lens), then add a lens equivalent to about 45mm (such as a 30mm lens) and a lens equivalent to about 75 - 80mm (such as a 50mm lens). This could cover the shooting needs from wide-angle to medium telephoto. For full-frame users, they had to choose the lens according to their shooting purpose. For example, portrait photographers might prefer a 50mm or 85mm focal length lens, while astrophotography might be more suitable for a 20mm wide-angle lens. If beginners were confused by the many choices, they could first evaluate their interests. If they liked a variety of subjects, a 30mm or 35mm fixed-focus lens with a f1.4 or f1.8 aperture was an ideal choice. - When choosing a lens, first look at the existing lens, determine the purchase target, and consider the future lens layout. If there was already a lens with a similar focal length, adding another lens with a similar focal length would not make much sense. - ** Cameras **: - For beginners who have never come into contact with a DSLR camera, if you use a DSLR camera, you must read the camera's user manual in detail at least three times to understand the meaning of each button and setting of the camera, as well as the use and maintenance methods. If you feel that reading the manual is boring, you can also choose the basic course to learn the basic operation of the camera. - After familiarizing himself with the camera's operation settings, he had to learn how to use light, including important parameters such as aperture, shutter, sensitivity, white balance, exposure compensation, and so on. He had to understand the impact of these parameters on the camera's light sensitivity when shooting, so that he could quickly reflect the shooting parameters when he saw the photo. Then, he had to learn the composition, portrait, scenery, color matching, night scene, and other shooting skills. - To master the knowledge of the camera's peripheral equipment, such as the lens, shutter release, tripod, flash, filter, light box and other accessories. - Considering post-production, he had to learn post-production software (such as PR and PS). - ** Cameras **: - Following the principle of having enough, choose a suitable model within the budget. For beginners who mainly took photos, the APSC half-frame model might meet the needs. There was no need to blindly pursue the full-frame bucket machine to avoid the function being idle. - First choose the lens and then consider the body, because the full-frame lens is usually much more expensive than the half-frame lens, and some brands of full-frame lenses have a situation where the bayonet is not open, there are few third-party lenses, and the cost of changing the lens is higher. - You can see what cameras the veterans around you are using. If there are photography enthusiasts around and there are many lenses, you can borrow the lens experience after familiarizing yourself with the camera operation, but be careful not to cause trouble to others due to improper operation during the novice stage. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

For beginners in photography, manual lenses are not recommended. Although manual lenses had their own unique charms, such as a unique imaging style, including a unique halo effect, a "film feel" presented by color reproduction, as well as natural facula and background blurring effects; many classic brands of old manual lenses had high optical quality, commendable mechanical craftsmanship, and could be perfectly combined with some of the current cameras, there were many challenges for beginners. Using a manual lens required a certain level of skill. One had to be familiar with the lens structure, including the functions of the focus ring, aperture ring, and zoom ring (zoom lens). When operating, one had to observe the subject through the eyepieces and turn the focus ring to focus. This required a lot of practice to master. Moreover, when using a manual lens, the photographer needed to have a strong control over the image. For example, he had to consider issues such as the distance between the two sides, the diameter of the bayonet, and the light measurement of the camera body. It was more complicated for beginners. Therefore, beginners in photography may encounter more difficulties when using manual lenses, so it is not recommended to use them. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

Beginners of photography could set up cameras from the following aspects: 1. ** Basic parameters setting ** - ** Aperture **: Aperture is represented by the F value, such as F2.8, F4, F8, etc. Its function was to control the amount of light entering and affect the depth of field. A small aperture (such as F16) was suitable for scenery, buildings, and other scenes that required a large depth of field, while a large aperture (such as F2.8) was suitable for portraits, flowers, and other scenes that required blurry backgrounds. - ** Shutter Speed **: In seconds, such as 1/1000s, 1/250s, 1/30s, etc. Its function was to control the exposure time. High-speed shutter speeds (such as 1/500s or faster) were suitable for shooting moving scenes to ensure that moving objects were clear; slow shutter speeds (such as 1/15s to 1 second) were suitable for shooting scenes that required long exposure times such as landscapes and flowing water. - ** Iso-sensitivity **: The values are: Iso100, Iso400, Iso1600, etc. It controls the camera's sensitivity to light. Low ISOs (such as ISO100) are suitable for environments with sufficient light to obtain high-quality images; high ISOs (such as ISO800 and above) are suitable for environments with insufficient light, but may cause noise. - ** focal length **: values such as 35mm (wide-angle), 200mm (telephoto), etc. It determined the perspective and the x-ray effect. Wide-angle focal length (such as 35mm) was suitable for shooting scenery, buildings, etc., while telephoto focal length (such as 200mm) was suitable for shooting long-distance objects, portraits, etc. - ** White Balance **: There are automatic, daylight, cloudy, fluorescent lights and other scenarios to choose from. The function was to adjust the color temperature of the photo to ensure that the white color was true. The appropriate white balance mode had to be selected according to the actual light source conditions. - ** Metering Mode **: Including center-emphasized, spot, and matrix modes. It determines how the camera measures light to determine exposure parameters, and the appropriate light measurement mode must be selected according to the shooting needs. 2. ** Selection of exposure control mode ** - ** Program exposure mode **: The camera automatically chooses the combination of aperture and shutter speed. It is suitable for beginners and scenes that do not require too much interference with the exposure settings. - ** Aperture priority mode **: The photographer sets the aperture value, and the camera automatically chooses the appropriate shutter speed, suitable for scenes that need to control the depth of field (such as portraits and flowers). - ** Shutter priority mode **: The photographer sets the shutter speed, and the camera automatically chooses the appropriate aperture value, suitable for scenes that require motion blur control (such as shooting moving scenes). 3. ** autofocus setting **: Most digital cameras have three types of autofocus systems. One-Shot AF (or single shot autofocus) suitable for still photography, the camera will focus and lock on the main subject until the shutter is pressed, helping to provide a clear image; artificial intelligence autofocus The camera would not focus on the subject, but the focus would be adjusted according to the object, suitable for shooting short films. There was also an automatic servo-af (or AI focus) camera that would automatically switch between single-shot autofocus and artificial intelligence servo-autofocus mode. 4. ** According to lighting conditions and subject adjustment **: Before shooting, adjust the camera aperture, shutter speed, and USB according to lighting conditions and subject. For example, in a well-lit environment, the priority was to choose a low IQ, adjust the aperture size according to the relationship between the subject and the background, and choose the shutter speed according to the dynamic state of the subject. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
