Follow on Google News | 5 Photography Tips for BeginnersBy: Drops and Props 1. Equipment As you’ve likely already noticed, there is an endless amount of photography equipment (http://dropsprops.com/ 2. Know the Terms To help you better understand how to use your new DSLR, it is important for you to know the different terms related to the camera’s manual settings. ISO, aperture, shutter speed and other terms can sometimes confuse a beginner who is unfamiliar with these settings. Let’s take a look at some terms you will regularly come in contact when shooting photos. Shutter Speed – Shutter speed refers to how long the shutter stays open when shooting a picture. Slower shutter speeds are used to allow more light in through the lens when there is an absence of light. Faster shutter speeds work great in bright situations and when shooting moving objects. Aperture – The aperture is measured in F-Stops and relates to the size of the lens opening. Using a lower F-Stop will focus on a single item in your picture making the photo background appear blurry. A higher F-Stop will ensure more of your photo is in focus. ISO – ISO is the adjustment you use depending upon the amount of light you are working with. For example, the lower the ISO number you set, the less sensitive the camera is to the light. You can use a low ISO when shooting outdoors on a sunny day and a higher ISO when it is cloudy or when shooting indoors. 3. Use a Tripod When shooting in low light or taking a long exposure photo you probably won’t be able to hold the camera still long enough to capture the shot without causing camera shake. Even some of the most seasoned photographers use tripods to eliminate the slightest effects of camera shake. 4. Learn From Others One of your most valuable resources is going to be other more seasoned photographers; 5. Experiment There is only one way to really get not just familiar but experienced at shooting in manual mode and that is practice. In addition to playing with the settings, try shooting in different situations, indoors and outdoors, from different angles and a variety of subjects. Ask family members to be your guinea pigs and experiment shooting portraits of them using different lighting equipment and photography backgrounds (http://dropsprops.com/ End
