How to Properly Hold a Camera for Professional Photography?

I thought this would be a very interesting and informative topic to go intoand considering what I've covered so far I thought I've certainly missed off some of the basics and I know some of you are beginners out there andwhen you're. Out the information that I'm putting out about photography and different types of cameras and lenses and different types of areas of working photography and what type of Imaging and things like that you can do and how you can do it. Do it you know there's a case ofneeding to go to the basics of how to hold the camera nowfirst off it depends on what kinds of shots you're taking sois gonna bedown to consideration for example if you're taking landscape shows right.

You Have Got To Possibly !

You have got to possibly focus a lot on stabilization of the camera because when you're taking landscape photos you know you're looking generally I see it as right and other photographers will probably do this differently right but. The way I I see it is you find a scene within the landscape when you're taking a landscape photo that you focus on that captures what you're possibly feeling at the moment or the types of feelings all the types of scene type of sett. In the landscape that you want to capture it could be a tree like this has the shade of the sun you know on the ground you know these these types of scenes in the landscape or some leaves on the ground or some leaves blowing them in.

In the air or you know a bird flying off somewhere from a tree branch or you know something like that in a landscape rightand you focus in on it and capture that moment rightbut there's not a lot of movement unless you're capturing. Birds or the leaves right generally there's not a lot of movement so you're not going to take a lot of snaps so if you're just trying to capture let's say trees or Green Hills or you know water flowing you know you're not gonna need. To take a lot of frames to capture that so there your your main goal is to stabilize the camera to get the right shotin the scene so the way in order to do thatis obviously to use a landscape lensa landscape lens is what you need to.

To useand then you would hold the lens fromthe front of the lens or just underneath the front of the lens kind of like you can see here but it'd be a bigger lens rightlet me see if it's like like this right this is a bigger lensthe. Lens might be bigger um in terms of length to take a better shotumsoI think that's a private lens actuallyyeah anyhowthat's how you need to hold it for a landscape you you're not focusing on taking loads of frames you're not focusin. Focusing on on capturing a specific moment within landscape unless you're you know I want to talk about bed and trees and stuff like that I think that's small Wildlife photography so that would be a different lens to a landscape len.

So With The Landscape ?

So with the landscape situation you want to stay like stabilized still as possible andkeep the shot as crisp as possible with the other type say for example if you're doing nature or if you're not nature if you do Wildlife photograp. If you're doing like um events weddings things like that photography for where there's a lot of uh potentially stuff going on then you're looking for shots where you can get possible focal points to you know the Blessed situation wh. Where you trying to get a focal point on maybe the the animal or the bridegroom if you do wedding photography as opposed to doing why laugh photography[Music] um um you know that's different to so there you'd want to focus on more f.

Right because you want to capture the moment so if you want to take like I don't know 50 frames 50 snaps to50 pictures to get the right shot thenumthat's what you would need to do take quite a few shots get the right one of them's g. Gonna be right just do a lot of shots and one of them will be rightum but yeah that is the way to do itsoif you're doing other types of uhImaging for example Vehicles right or maybe furniture or maybe things like that then you're no. Not really taking you know you're not really looking for a moment you're more focused on lighting in those situations the lighting's got to be really good on the um objects or you know in the room or things like thatso there you wou.

Be more okay so if you you got to get the right anglein that situationyou know you might want to use wide-angle lenses for inside rooms if you take pictures of rooms you might want to get additional lights if you're taking pictures. Of things like furniture and things like that and the same with vehicles if you're taking pictures of vehicles you might want to get additional lighting around the vehicles so you can seeand get a better shotso umthat's my ideas any.
