【Term  light】
 
     Best photography is oblique light rays, that is, when the light in the morning and evening (specifically, it can be briefly considered before ten o'clock in the morning, after 3 pm).
     Angled light shines on the body appears to have texture, three-dimensional, there are bright sun shine shine dark for photography, is to use light to represent the diversity of themes, dipped in a light, when the photographer can use Shun light source light, side backlight, backlight, etc. to show, if it is noon, the light from the head down, there is less of a selectable.
     Think of the shadow cast by the body - in the evening you can have a long shadow, and at noon, will be nothing.
     In addition, morning and evening when the color temperature is low (compare orange, relatively high color temperature is more blue-violet), low color temperature is relatively pleasing, rich colors (blue sky may still be, but clouds are orange, the sun is golden a).
     Noon when the sun is a pale, often you can see the blue sky in the morning to noon on dead white one.
     The trees, bushes at noon are listless listless, lifeless.
     Therefore, the most intense midday sun, for a small amount of light through the P & S, it would have been the right time, but they do not have good scenery, really contradictory.

Noon shutdown, many landscape photographers habits. P & S's small amount of light, in general, sooner or later the light is good, but often leads to too slow a shutter, blurred picture, use a tripod and lose portability. Dilemma.
 
=========================
【Usage terms】
 
 ----------------
 1. [ISO400 film]
 
 Because most of the stupid machine F3.5 maximum aperture are below, so try to use ISO400 film, allows the camera to use a faster shutter, reducing the chance of mold paste shoot cameras. And reduces the flash use, saving electricity, even if you must use flash, can also increase the effective distance.
 
 ----------------
 2. [when using flash outdoors photo portrait]
 
 Can make people more beautiful face, remove some of the shadows. Take it easy, fool the camera's flash is not so strong, the camera can also be set to allow the forced flash flash in the outdoors.

----------------
 3. [Indoor turn off the flash]
 
 In the dim light indoors, or outside in the dark, the flash off! The camera will attempt to slowest shutter exposure and maximum aperture of course, you have to try to stabilize the camera on a tripod or on a plane. If it is too dark to be reminded to be shot by one hundred twenty-three Freeze. Avoid Do not use automatic mode, otherwise the camera will flash effect, still using the general aperture shutter combination, the result is the subject barely bright enough (sometimes it is difficult to friends) background is a dark black paint thing. Some cameras can even choose a slow shutter speed plus flash, it can handle a Night Portrait.
 
 ----------------
 4. [Hold the camera steady as possible]
 
 More use of terrain, a tree, a low wall on one side. Consider to buy a mini tripod, can be inserted in the jacket pocket that is not cumbersome. If we can hold lightweight tripod is better. Especially when using a long lens aperture zoom fool may be F10 or less, it is a relatively slow shutter! Should pay more attention.

----------------
 5. [Remember fool non-SLR camera]
 
 You is not seen by the camera viewfinder to see the picture. Glazed always be clear, but not necessarily your theme! Most shoot cameras is that you half-press the shutter, the camera began to metering, focus. If they are not in view of the central subject, the exposure may be allowed out of focus again. So pay attention, if not the central theme, the theme for the first focus, metering (half-press the shutter, hold), then recompose. This same principle as with the SLR electronic camera. This ensures accurate exposure focus theme.
 
 ----------------
 6. [more practice to get the camera]
 
 Fingers, sleeves, hair, beard Do not cover the lens, flash or focus, metering holes.
 
 ----------------
 7. [practicing selective metering]
 
 General fool mostly central focus metering, similar FM2, so can be used to lock the exposure by pressing the shutter half way. For a part of the picture metering. But pay attention to their needs and themes similar distance, otherwise the focus will not be permitted. This is an advanced technique, I still groping.

----------------
 8. [avoid Defocus]
 
 If the camera through the window or window screen to select Infinite Focus Distance (infinite lock) or the camera lens close to the window, we will not lose focus.
 
 ----------------
 9. [camera lens closest focusing distance is much]
 
 Check the manual to see if your camera lens closest focusing distance is. If you do not shoot to 40cm lower than what this distance, as will be out of focus. Most of the camera if the object near its closest focusing distance, there will be a warning light to illuminate the viewing by the window, look at it!
 
 ----------------
 10. [Use Glazed]
 
 With the foregoing, due to non-coaxial viewfinder and the lens, so there are differences in their field of vision, the closer the object, this error is greater. Often take Edges cut off, there is a small viewing window lattice, typically the close composition useful. But it will probably only have errors.

----------------
 11. [read the instructions]
 
 The new camera is to be familiar with the instructions, the next regular review. Do not want to shoot a friend getting married tomorrow until today to buy the camera, it may even batteries, do not know how to load the film.
 
 ----------------
 12. [using the new film]
 
 Please use the new film! Do not laugh, I was only a few days ago rinse wash shop told me to send the film has a history, not good for three years, I do not know to blame the camera, technology, stores, or negatives? A few days ago my mom showed me a roll of film found in her dresser, seems to have a few years! I was not going to take it to travel it! Also finished as soon as possible, please send a roll quickly wash, do not valuable negatives. Do not six months after the discovery of the film has been sleeping for a long time in the camera.
 
 ----------------
 13. [backup battery]
 
 Like him to bring a spare battery! I once took a fool to go to Malaysia to play happily camera to take pictures only wonder how the camera has a flash that can not be beat. The situation was still unclear, but fortunately, with the group having a beautiful sister camera, otherwise really too unpleasant. Yeah, that is, it sparked my interest in learning photography there, maybe everyone who wants to learn photography should have this experience!

----------------
 14. [prevent heat]
 
 Please do not put the camera or film on the windows of a car trunk or back seat of smoldering, will play the role of some chemical Oh.
 
 ----------------
 15. [try various shooting positions]
 
 Finally, do not use your immutable shoot cameras, according to some boring photos. Then the user is really a fool. Try horizontal position, Penhold, condescending, squat down, get down! With flash, long exposure, grimaces, put pose, photographed, or even put your camera strapped on several large balloons, press the self-timer, and then let him off slowly. Then slingshot shot down, kidding, you should know what I mean.

=========================
【Ten tips for the term】
 
-------------------
 1, [read the manual]
 
     Most people buy a shoot camera, really thought it was silly, brochures without looking;
     Or just look at the back, to go and play found in addition to press the shutter, the other did not know.
     Quickly find out your instructions now! Special Note:
 (1) special shooting modes - portrait, landscape, night scene setting;
 (2) Flash Guide Number Index or effective flash distance;
 (3) The red-eye reduction setting;
 (4) The camera's focus - if you press the shutter halfway to focus on the center, hold the shutter and then recompose photographs?
 (5) how to set the date print, eliminated.
 
-------------------
 2, [good election negatives]
 
     More and more people buy zoom shoot cameras, the Pentax Espio 140 commonly cite it, although 38-140mm zoom magnification, but its aperture is only f / 4.8-f / 12, the need to flash the occasion, if you use 100 degrees negatives, only 1.1-1.8 meters effective distance (Wang remote), use 400 degrees as negatives, the effective distance increased to 1.1-3.6 meters.

So the conclusion is that the zoom fool shooting in sunny selection of 100 degrees negatives, cloudy or indoor camera selection of 400 degrees negatives. (200 degrees negatives? Just over 100 degrees sensitized particle level but not much more than 400 degrees fine, it is not recommended) during the tour should carry enough negative 100 degrees and 400 degrees.
     Also like to remind you that, when the background is dark night scene, playing flash only the subject clear, absolutely dark background, it is not up to shoot photos of the negatives do not waste. (Example: National Day fireworks shot to get automatic fool people and pyrotechnics) Unless, stand tripod use night mode with the flashing lights long exposure to people and background are properly exposed.
 
-------------------
 3, [composition when taking pictures]
 
     Although not a big photographer, but as long as a little a little attention to some details, a good photo is not difficult to shoot.
 (1) portraits, if the face is side, I would like him to leave some space for him in the direction (eg, look to the right of the screen, move the person placed in the left side of the screen);
 (2) a person's photo shoot, if pure performance portraits, try straight pieces patterning;
 (3) Do not shoot portraits Siban Ban stood center of the screen;
 (4) Travel & Living photo shoot, not even one two three took first in the viewfinder and see if others mess around? Can wait ten seconds waiting for something refreshing the screen, or move your feet, with another camera angle;
 (5) beat sea or horizontal screen, try to keep a level surface;
 (6) an important subject or background, do not be cut at the edge of the half. (Which is not difficult to do it.)
 
-------------------
 4, [booming multi-shot]
 
     Look at your life according to some eyes just closed, and some head did not turn around ...... good scenery never fear wasting film, shoot a few more! In particular landscapes, try a different composition, a wide-angle telescope to see all clap, straight cross the try. The photos show a broad cross and stability, straight photographs are more momentum and depth.
 
-------------------
 5, [AF]
 
     Some people are not focusing on the center of the photo to the back, right? When not installed a lot of negatives about the practice, half-press the shutter to focus on the center (you can hear the sound of the lens rotation), do not let go, recompose (proper placement of people with the background scenery) and then press the shutter.

-------------------
 6, [turn off the flash shot Scenery]
 
     As mentioned above, the zoom-shoot camera aperture small, often in the automatic mode will lead to flash.
     Learn how to turn off the flash (forced not flash), then the camera will slow shutter exposure, so you have to stabilize the body, the first deep breath and then breath easily slow shutter to avoid vibration.
 
-------------------
 7. [buy support small tripod]
 
     Market small tripod (or desktop tripod) is the self-yourself, you can slow shutter shooting night (plus the self-timer is activated, without making the picture shake), but will not increase your burden (weighing only a two hundred grams).
 
-------------------
 8, [sometimes erasing Date imprint]
 
     Living according to the date it is convenient, but pure landscape photos with the date enlarge it look good. Then determine the time you will eliminate the date set!

-------------------
 9, [select print shop]
 
     The vast majority of people are using the camera to shoot a fool negative (usually negative), the print shop to wash out the photo quality is definitely bigger impact on than you think. Choose a good impression of your print shop, try not to do at home to wash. If you need immediate printing in the field, my experience is more consistent level of Kodak prints chains.
 
-------------------
 10, [see more learning]
 
     Finally a good photo shoot tips and most important, is to look at the work of others, participate in discussions, and more take their own pictures to understand people comment.
