How can I use a digital camera to capture people and scenes?

1 First of all, look at the shooting of the waterfall. Many of the beautiful waterfalls** on the Internet are shot using the slow shutter speed of the DSLR.

First, use the S stop of the DSLR camera, and then adjust the wave wheel to control the shutter speed from 1 second to 1 to 15 seconds, and you can shoot the wonderful feeling of the waterfall flowing. If you want to shoot with a portrait, please do not move the portrait for 1 second.

2 Then there are the mountains and the sky that are light-than-light.

When we shoot beautiful mountains and rivers, the sky is often white and there is no cloud level, the use of the HDR function of the SLR camera can be used to shoot the mountains and white clouds at the same time, and if you cooperate with the accessory gradient lens of the SLR camera, the light of the sky can be dimmed, and the photos taken not only ensure the clarity and brightness of the ground still life, but also retain the details of the clouds in the sky. (When you are photographing the sunset or beautiful clouds, do you find that the still life on the ground is black).

3 Again, the flowers and plants in the mountains, especially the autumn leaves, are particularly beautiful.

Use the large aperture of the SLR to blur off the messy background and highlight the theme of red leaves, which will be unusually brilliant.

Take clear landscape photos with a greater depth of field so that the picture is clear. So try to use a wide angle and make the aperture smaller (f-number), e.g. f8 to f11. Of course, remember to reduce the ISO value to 100 to 200 so that there is no noise.

But sometimes the aperture also depends on your lens, for example, one of your lenses is best imaged.

Pay attention to the use of light, whether it is indoor or outdoor, light is very important. Pay attention to the lighting outdoors and the lighting indoors.

It's a good idea to understand the personality, characteristics, and so on of the person you're going to photograph, and if it's a client, pay more attention to their preferences and aesthetics. In this way, you can shoot ** that conforms to the temperament of the character.

Make good use of shallow depth of field, but don't abuse it. The effect of shallow depth of field is well known and can highlight the subject, but if you can't see the environment when you shoot it, everyone will get tired of it, hehe.

Whether you are a professional or amateur photographer, the most important thing is to have your own style. It is best to learn about other people's portraits on forums or flickr, paying attention to the shooting angle, aperture size, and character pose. Shoot more practically, find out the gaps in the middle and learn to make up for them.

I'm telling you, photography is secondary.

First of all, you have to have a good-looking model.

Or a model with a look.

This is the most basic.

First of all, you need a manual camera that can freely control the parameters, such as the Olympus e-pl3. Then you need to determine what you need Yu Qi to frame in, and then you need to set the correct ** and color, Huaichang If you need people and scenery to be clear, you need to make a vertical observation to reduce the aperture to a very small point At this time, you may need a tripod. byOlympus micro-single enthusiasts.

This is not something that can be explained in a few words, for photography is an art in itself, you can shoot casually, but it is not easy to shoot well, otherwise the photography major in college will have to learn to be cautious for many years. Photography is not only necessary to prepare when shooting, but also to pay attention to the frame drawings and lighting.

Take a clear picture of the person, the hand celery crack should be stable, press the shutter halfway to focus, and when you hear "Didi" or see the focus frame turn bright and the first hand is green, continue to press it steadily. If you want to take a good picture of people and the background, on the basis of the above, let people get closer to the camera, so that the background can be photographed. For example, if you take a tall temple gate or archway, people can't get too close to it, so that it can't be opened.

To shoot a good-looking portrait**, you need to pay attention to the following points:

Lighting: Choosing the right light is key. Softly lit, natural interiors and shaded exterior environments can all provide excellent light.

If you're shooting outside, opt for the golden hour in the morning or evening, when the light is soft and the colors are abundant, creating a warm and romantic atmosphere.

Focus: The focus of the portrait** should be on the subject's eyes. This can make ** more vivid and intimate, and make it easier for people to resonate.

Composition: Proper composition is the key to creating a beautiful portrait. When composing a picture, you should pay attention to the symmetry and balance of the picture, but also pay attention to the proportional relationship between the portrait and the background.

Posture: The posture of the subject is also very important. When shooting, you can guide the subject to take a natural and comfortable posture to make it more vivid and natural.

Post-processing: Proper post-processing can make the ** more brilliant. You can use simple retouching software to adjust the brightness, contrast, color and other parameters to make the ** clearer, vivid and artistic.

The most important thing is to establish good communication and interaction with the subject, so that the subject can relax and naturally express their charm and personality.

The five elements of a good portrait.

1. Rational use of lightIn portrait photography, the use of light is very important. It's best to use "even" light so that it hits the subject directly or indirectly, with a moderate contrast between the highlights and low light. The most taboo thing to do when taking portraits is to use direct sunlight from the top of your head.

It can cause dark shadows around a person's eye sockets, nose and chin, and it is often ideal to avoid this damaging light effect by choosing soft light such as scattered light from the sky or homemade reflectors.

2. When shooting portraits correctly, if the light on the scene is relatively uniform, you can measure the light from the position where the camera is located, and let the light meter average the ** value of the highlight and low light parts. If you are in a relatively complex light environment, you should use spot metering to measure light from a person's face to obtain an accurate amount.

3. Although the use of large aperture and small aperture can make the background environment appear clear, it will divert the attention of the subject. Shooting with a wide aperture blurs the background and keeps it out of focus, leaving the subject the only thing that catches the eye in the frame. In this portrait** shot with a wide aperture, there is no distraction from the background (see Figure 1).

Sometimes you need to use a small aperture to shoot ambient portraits, so you need to keep the surrounding background clear, bring the subject into the frame along with the surrounding environment, and reflect the subject's personality through the characteristics and details of the environment (Figure 2).

4. Try the vertical picture compositionThe horizontal picture composition is good for group portraits, but when you close early and take a solo photo, you should turn the camera to the vertical position. Portrait portraits are more suitable for solo portraits, as the vertical rectangular shape of the main figure corresponds to them.

5. If you use a 135 camera for long focal length, you should choose a lens with a focal length of 85 to 135mm. Since portraits with shorter focal lengths (under 50 mm) often exaggerate the features of a person's face, using lenses from 85 to 135 mm, often referred to as portrait lenses, the sense of perspective is compressed so that facial features are properly proportioned. However, if you want to use a long focal length lens of 200mm or more, it will make the face appear flat.

Therefore, it is better to shoot portraits with a medium telescopic lens.
