Camera shooting starry sky parameters

Today, I will share some introductory skills of starry sky photography, mainly aimed at photographers, and friends at the level of great gods can avoid it.

I. Equipment and parameter settings

Nowadays, many mobile phones can shoot a good starry sky effect, and the operation is relatively simple, such as the "gorgeous star track" of Huawei mobile phones.

You can also use mobile phone professional mode, and Apple mobile phone can download procam7 software to realize professional shooting mode.

Professional shooting mode is similar to camera settings. Generally speaking, ISO is set at 3200, and the shutter speed is 20-30 seconds. The specific parameter setting depends on the field light. You can shoot it first and then adjust it according to the effect.

If you are shooting with a camera, try to shoot with the wide-angle end and large aperture of the lens. If it's a cell phone, use the main lens. Although some mobile phones have super wide-angle lenses, their performance is not as good as the main lens.

In addition, whether it is a mobile phone or a camera, a tripod is essential, and the stability of shooting must be maintained.

Second, the weather requirements

If you want to shoot the starry sky well, there are still some requirements for the weather.

First of all, it must be sunny and cloudless in Wan Li. Pay attention to the moon phase. The moon is too round and too bright, because it will form light pollution. But the moon is too small and dark, and the ground scenery will be underexposed.

You can make a plan in advance. Now you can find many related apps on your mobile phone, and you can find the time of sunrise, sunset and moon setting every day, including the location of some constellations, astronomical morning light and other rich information.

Third, step on the spot in advance

Be sure to know the shooting location in advance, instead of looking for a plane seat in the dark at night.

Fourth, don't just shoot the stars.

There must be proper ground scenery collocation, otherwise you will shoot a starry sky material, not a complete photographic work.

Five, the ground scenery should not be dark.

Don't darken your ground scenery if it doesn't have a beautiful outline.

How can I take a photo with bright ground?

1, artificial fill light

For example, if the foreground is a tree or a house, you can brush the trees in turn with a flashlight. If it is a tent on the grassland, you can turn on the lights inside, but the lights in the tent should not be turned on all the time during the exposure, otherwise it will be overexposed.

Step 2: Natural light

If the ground scenery is relatively large, it is still recommended to use moonlight to illuminate.

3. Multiple superposition

You can also take a photo of the material mainly on the ground before the official shooting. Then pay attention to the sky exposure effect when shooting formally. Finally, combine the two photos.

If you shoot with a camera, you can also take a lot of photos of the material in the early stage and superimpose it in the later stage, which can also play a role in noise reduction.

Input of intransitive verb characters

If you want to let people enter the country, besides the posture and position of people, there is another point that you should pay special attention to.

Because of the long exposure time of starry sky photography, it is difficult for people to keep a posture for that long. Therefore, it is suggested to take a photo of the character's material separately while keeping the composition unchanged, and then synthesize it with the starry sky photo later.

That's all. You are welcome to add anything that is incomplete. Here is the mobile phone photography manual. I'm Yang Tao. This article was written when my nerves were oppressed and my fingers were numb. Typing is not easy. I hope everyone likes it, pays attention to it and forwards it.
