Hello, everyone. Today, we will talk about how to quickly start taking pictures after getting a digital camera.

There are many buttons and pulleys on the SLR / microsheet. Although the explanation of the manual is detailed and accurate, it will take a long time to read too much.

In order to help new users get started quickly, we take Canon DSLR as an example to give a brief and quick explanation.

First of all, let's follow the steps of taking pictures with the camera:

1. Turn on the camera.

two。 Scene composition

3. Adjust focus, exposure, reality and reality.

4. Click to take a picture

The various buttons and wheels on the camera serve these steps.

Camera button description (getting started)

1. Camera switch: turns the camera on or off.

two。 Switch viewfinder: switch between LCD or eyepiece viewfinder. (when shooting a video, this button is the recording button)

1. Zoom ring: change the focal length after rotation.

two。 Focus mode: focus makes the subject clear. AF is autofocus and MF is manual focus.

3. Focus ring: in MF mode, adjust the focus distance after rotation.

4. Anti-shaking: counteracts the blurring of the picture caused by shaking hands with the camera.

5. Shutter: half press to focus automatically, press all to take pictures.

6. Change the lens: press and hold it down to unscrew the lens and replace other lenses.

1. Photo mode: rotation can choose a variety of photo modes, there are fully automatic, semi-automatic, manual and other modes.

Fully automatic mode, you are only responsible for pressing the shutter.

Portraits, landscapes, sports and other modes, the camera will automatically adjust some of the parameters of the photo. For example, in portrait mode, it is preferred to use a large aperture to blur the background and soften the face. Using landscape mode, green and blue will be more saturated, making the photo look beautiful.

A / T / P / M mode, the more important mode, you can set aperture, shutter, ISO and other values. For more information, please see the following article:

Camera aperture (Av) and shutter priority (Tv), respectively, suitable for what scene, how to choose?

Aperture, shutter, observation, the basic knowledge that beginners must read!

two。 Quick adjustment: one click to adjust the photo parameters, faster than the conventional adjustment, focusing on a speed. Can modify white balance, photometric mode, single / continuous / timing shooting, autofocus mode, exposure compensation, sensitivity and so on.

3. Display switch: controls the display of the screen, and some cameras are replaced by DISP.

4. Main dial: can rotate, play the role of key. According to your personal habits, you can choose either one.

1. Photo view: look at photo albums.

two。 Delete: delete photos. (you can also clear some settings to restore the camera parameters to the default)

3.SET: OK key.

4. Q speed control button: after pressing, you can use the up and down keys / dial wheel to select different parameters. If you do not press, the next key / dial wheel will only change the size of a certain parameter.

5. Key / speed control dial: up and down, left and right. (or replace the speed control function)

6.lock: lock the adjustment buttons such as the speed control dial to make them invalid to prevent the parameters from being changed by mistake when taking pictures.

7. Menu: open the camera menu and modify various settings.

8. Information view: display all kinds of information. Pressing multiple times in a row will show more information. For example, when you view a photo, the photo parameters are displayed. When taking a picture, the shooting parameters are displayed.

9.AF-ON: in AF mode, turn on this function without half pressing the shutter and the camera will focus itself.

10. Lock exposure: after clicking, you can lock the current brightness.

11. Automatic focus selection: after pressing, you can choose which (or all) of the focus will work in AF. (some cameras can also choose an autofocus area)

(the above two buttons of some cameras also have the function of magnifying glass.)

Camera screen interface parameters

1. Photo mode: which mode is currently used to take pictures. Such as M (manual), P (program automatic), A (aperture priority) and so on.

two。 Shutter speed: the time it takes for the camera to take a picture. It affects the amount of light input and the degree of motion blur.

3. Aperture: the size of the lens aperture. It affects the incoming light area and the degree of emptiness. The smaller the number after F, the larger the aperture.

4.ISO: sensitivity, the sensitivity of the camera to light. If the ISO is too high, it will produce noise and reduce the quality of the picture.

According to the selection of P, A, T, M gear of the camera, have you used it correctly?

5. Exposure compensation: available in non-M files. Adjust the brightness of the photo. Usually you can only use this function to adjust the brightness of the photo.

6. Flash compensation: adjust the brightness of the flash when using the flash.

7. Custom: save the adjusted parameters for quick use next time.

8. Photo style: determine how the camera modifies the picture. Valid only for jpg format. You can adjust parameters such as saturation, sharpness, and so on. (except for the RAW format, the photos taken by the camera are processed, so there is no absolute sense of "my photos have not been repaired")

9. White balance mode: controls the color temperature and hue of the photo, so that the whole is biased to a certain color or not. For example, under the yellow light, make the camera blue, and the photo will not be biased after the two colors are superimposed.

What is the white balance of the camera and how should it be adjusted? Read an article thoroughly!

10. Automatic brightness optimization: optimize the brightness contrast of photos. For example, shooting black objects at night, if not optimized, you may not be able to distinguish the outline of the subject from the background.

11. Photo format and size: decide whether the photo is in RAW or JPG format. Determine how big the pixel of the photo is.

twelve。 Autofocus mode: only once in any case. Or when the subject moves, the lens will also be refocused.

The knowledge of camera focus is explained in detail. Do you really understand the focus?

13. Photometric mode: the camera will first detect the brightness of the environment, and then determine the amount of light input, thus affecting the brightness of the photo. The photometric mode determines which area of the environment the camera measures the brightness of, such as all areas, central areas, and so on.

How to choose the four metering modes of the camera? Teach you to use the photometric function correctly!

14. Driving mode: choose a variety of modes such as single shot, continuous shooting, countdown shooting and so on.

The most common step for photographers to take pictures is to choose an appropriate mode from M / A / T (S) according to the subject matter, adjust the values of aperture, shutter and sensitivity, zoom to adjust the composition, focus to make the subject clear, and then get a picture and post-processing. The other parameters of the camera can be kept by default and do not need to be adjusted every time.
