complement the dark side of insufficient light
Shooting antiques, small sculpture, jewelry, stained glass, carved glass, plates, bottles, dolls, wood carvings, furniture, paintings and similar items, not only useful in the insurance industry, but also for creative photographers, but also a Rao interesting work.
(A) First, choose an appropriate lens. Ideally, large-diameter lens. Because it can avoid a lot of complex lighting equipment, to avoid the monotony of high-contrast flash effect, but also to avoid calculation errors caused by flash reflection. In general, F 2 or F1.8 lens, can make the shooting was carried out faster and better. Using a large diameter lens it should be noted that most are very limited. Approach is not to overcome the camera too close to the subject matter. Slower speed can also be used to shoot with a smaller aperture. But not slower than the minimum rate of 1 / 30 seconds, because of the speed and then slow to inevitable shock. Focus on the subject matter in the most important part, other parts can not focus. Bear in mind that when using a standard camera lens too close to the object, it will distort the image.
If you use a tripod, ideally one of about 135 mm focal length lens. This photo shoot, the proportion of the various parts of the object compared to normal. To the minimum aperture is best to make all of the subject matter can be clear.HP Compaq NX7400 battery
Wide-angle lens is ideal when shooting large pieces of furniture. It can be concave and the curved part of the furniture all looks very clear. This lens can also provide great depth of field, even at close range photography or when using the maximum aperture is also true.
Clap ornaments, coins, a class of small items, you can use the price is not too expensive, close-up lens attached. These lenses generally the standard lens can be screwed. Device equipped with a close-up telephoto lens, you can also shoot the same effect.
(B) of the small items of lighting, both can come from natural light through windows, you can also use the camera light, flash, or even candles and floor lamp, or a mixture of these sources of light. Meanwhile, the other side of the object, put up a large reflector to complement the dark side of insufficient light.
If you use only natural light outside the window, to avoid direct sunlight. There are windows on both sides to find a better corner, so you can use the sky diffuse light to light the subject to a three-dimensional. If both the indoor lights on or near the object to a two lamps color to enhance the main part of the light, an effect will be better. More appropriate to use two light photography. One of the brightest objects in one or closest to the side away from the camera, the other close to the camera. And then back behind the subject matter coupled with a spotlight, so that the subject matter outline appears around the wonderful light.battery Toshiba PA3420U-1BRS
Determine the intensity of light, preferably visual. Light and shadow should have a certain balance to avoid the contrast is too strong.
(C) Regardless of the film, black and white or color, the slower the speed, the more detail can be fully reflected in the object. However, when using color film, must take into account the color temperature of lighting. In the choice of film, you should also note that with the appropriate filter.
If you must use high-speed film can be sensitivity to ASA400 black and white film, to 1000 or higher sensitivity to use, and then washed with a special volume of particles developer, the subject matter of the film grain to would not be lost.
(D) precise metering is very important. Direct metering of objects the simplest method is to be edge-lit table on the physical assistance to move around (but be careful not to put into his shadow to the top), then the brightest star in the dark, and the average of at to exposure. For low light objects, such as the black statue, freshman level should be open aperture.Compaq tc4400 battery
Carved glass products should be placed in translucent plastic sheet or on a piece of frosted glass, the back lined with white background, and then lighting from below. In this way, we can highlight the objects crystal lines. If possible, use a soft plastic sheeting on the wall, the bottom of the pad under the cut glass to form a seamless traditional background.
Cloudy weather, light, slow fire, for many small items to excellent yields up effect. Put in the outdoor tables, the items on the table top to beat. This remake of weather on outdoor painting and photographs are very satisfactory. Exposure to a 18% reflective gray board determined. Most items that fit in simple and plain background. Smooth walls of the board, color board, bed sheets, velvet or other textiles can be used.
Jewelry should be based on its color, contrast and strong light on the dark board or surface, shooting from above.
