Simple Lessons

Correctly learn to photograph someone who understands that the photo is a picture obtained with the help of light. For this, there is no need to purchase light umbrellas, spotlights. If you correctly select the camera angle and time of day, then the natural light will show itself in the best light. If your camera is a mirror, then the task is simplified at times thanks to its built-in functions. But first of all, you should thoroughly study all these functions, find out what is the aperture, exposure and exposure. These are the basic concepts in the art of photography.

The next stage is the mastery of the concepts of photosensitivity and ISO (ISO), which ensure the clarity of the images and the absence of noise on them. Then experiment with the white balance - a function that allows you to save pictures from color distortions (yellowness, blueness, greyness). It is equally important to learn the rules of shooting with flash, which is used in hard daylight or for control frames. But in the room it is better to turn it off so that the faces do not have glare, and the background was not decorated with an unpleasant shadow.

Each lens has its own characteristics, which should be studied. The main criterion indicated on the marking is light. Do not rush to fork over a expensive luminous lens, if the main requirement for photographs is getting into focus, rather than depth of field. Do you want to deepen your knowledge of the art of photography? Understand such physical phenomena as diffraction (sunlight in the frame, which reduces sharpness) and distortion that occurs when using wide-angle lenses.

And, of course, take care of your camera by protecting its lens from moisture and scratches with a protective filter. If you have purchased a gradient filter, you can safely take pictures of sunrises and sunsets, and buying a Polarist is a guarantee of the magnificent shots of the blue sky in clear sunny weather.
