Macro under sunny spring


Spring warms, gay. The young leaves of the trees grow out of the turquoise, butterfly flower to dancing, shooting for amateur photographers brings the number of different themes. This time, we use the latest DSLR-A350 and Sony SAL100M28 (AE 100mm f/2.8 Macro) macro lens, take you to the colourful world of macro.

Before you start shooting, and Panasonic HDC-TM20 Battery Charger  of course the first thing to do is to check your own equipment is able to cope with it! camera, it is better to choose a long focal length (such as 100mm or more) macro lens, short focal length macro lens focus distance is too short, easy to scare away insects butterflies, for the filming of goods might be appropriate. The other hand, if all share a common support of long focal length lenses, plus a macro extension tubes can also be eco-photo shooting macro, but focusing more time.

This time, we use the fuselage is DSLR-A350, is a rare entry machines equipped with nine auto focus, shot composition more quickly and easily, increasing the chances of shooting. In addition, DSLR-A350 is also equipped with the Quick AF Live View function and 2.7-inch LCD can be used for the upper and lower angle adjusting, shooting is more flexible and convenient. Usually very difficult to beat the high, low angle, use the Quick AF Live View feature is easy, guarantee will not miss any highlights.

Compared to other equipped with Live View Quick AF Live View of the features of D-SLR,DSLR-A350 action and reaction has a clear advantage because D-SLR-A350 has adopted a new development of JVC JY-HD10 Battery Charger the pentaprism retroversion system, an independent Live View viewfinder photographic components for live view. When you use the Quick AF Live View viewfinder, the camera's AF system without any effect, apart from the focus speed is faster than other Live View D-SLR, drastically reducing eye mask black time.

Incidentally, in addition to shooting macro photos, DSLR-A350 's Quick AF Live View for landscape shooting are also very favourable. Meet SAL16105 (AF 16-105mm f/3.5-5.6) lens, the more outstanding prospects of the use of high and low angle scene, photo composition richer.

This time of the filming equipment is the Sony DSLR-A350 and SAL100M28 (AE 100mm f/2.8 Macro) macro lens.

Quick AF Live View function, regardless of shooting high and low angle are handy.

Fair clear or cloudy environments, if light not very dark, can take good macro ecology photos. Cloudy shot, because the light is not much direction, just select the right composition, almost every point can be taken. Because of the subject and background brightness average, so the color of the background will be more prominent.

In fair weather while shooting, many people love using the backlit shot, highlight the lines and textures of the wings of insects. At this time the background brightness not be higher than the brightness of the subject, so as to avoid background subject is too overexposed or underexposed.

Taken on overcast days, foliar less reflective than fair weather, saturation of the picture will be higher.
Macro lens zoom rate is higher, but at the same time shake problem is amplified accordingly.
Open the Super SteadyShot earthquake of DSLR-A350 features, can help reduce shake problems.

We see many macro insect work, most of it is the side of shooting of insects, this is actually related to photos depth of field. Due to the focus distance close, with natural daylight time cannot be received too small, photos depth of field is often only one or two millimeters. Side of shooting of insects, insect body plane close to parallel with the PC components, so that you can take to the maximum of the clear range.

Also chooses between subjects is also shooting key. Whether photographing flowers or shooting of Nikon EN-EL9A Battery Charger insects, simple and powerful composition can enhance the Visual effect of photos. Many beginners photos too cluttered is certainly wrong should be careful when taking photos of the background or foreground.

The shooting angle is too high, butterfly wings become unclear.

Level shooting angle with butterflies, butterflies can fetch the details of greater clarity.

Simple framing make the photo more convincing.
