Exemode SQ28m, Super Mini Digital Camera

Judging from its size that can be grasped by our fingers, it is the perfect camera if we use it to take pictures without having the hassle to carry a large camera already bagged.
Wishing to become a secret agent?! I think it can not be realized by all people especially if you’re only someone without a good stalking skills, which must be owned by a secret agent. But at least these desires could be remedied if you can have a digital camera this small.
The camera output Exemode this SQ28m type, it is a miniature digital camera that is designed so pretty with the colors of interest also. Besides taking pictures, you can also record moving pictures in video. This pocket camera has a CMOS sensor with 1.95 Megapixel resolution that can take quality pictures in 1280 × 1200px resolution. It also can record video size 320 × 240 with a speed 8fps.
The camera size is 53 × 23x19mm, uku
rannya just like house keys. But do not be afraid, as the storage medium supplied 64MB of internal memory which can also be coupled with capacity reaching 2GB microSD. This camera also weighs 21gram only just, with a choice of red and blue colors.
They say this new miniature camera in Japan will be inaugurated next week, following a price range of these products alone. Well, turns out to be dreaming of a secret agent, is no longer an empty dream yes, but if you can have this cute camera, have to be careful, otherwise you could lose because of its size is so small.

How to Take a picture The Great Digital Photos
• Written by Adi Murvianto
• Posted September 17, 2009 at 4:33 pm
Photographed using a digital camera that takes some of the same techniques used such as shooting using negative film. But there are some important things differently in a digital camera. Usually there is a pause between when you press the button to take pictures and when the camera takes a picture (except for some expensive models). The longer the time gap means that the more difficult to capture a moment. Here are some ways to minimize it:

Setting focus before shooting
When using auto focus, pressing the shutter button is not in full (on hold half way) will tell camera to focus on the target. You may have to wait a few seconds with key presses conditions half way, so that when the moment you take a slingshot, camera will not spend time to focus.
Use manual exposure settings
Camera takes time to calculate the exposure settings (exposure) in full automatic mode, so best to use manual settings.
Do not use flash unless absolutely necessary
The time required to charge the flash will increase the lag time. If you need a flash (flash), consider to use an external flash.
Use the viewfinder
Rather than using the LCD screen on a digital camera, your battery will be more efficient if using viewfinder. It also will reduce the time required for the camera ready.
Reduce the image quality
Digital camera allows you to adjust image size and resolution to be taken. TIFF files are large and not compressed would look nice, but it could cause a break. If you intend to take action pictures, try using image setting a lower quality (and smaller images). This will be a little sacrifice quality, but will increase the chance you take pictures that you really want. Perform experiment with camera settings to find the right combination of image quality and the gap (shutter lag).
Use the burst mode
If your camera has this feature, Burst mode is a great way to get a moment that really fit your own, in a way to catch a few quick pictures in a few seconds. Depending on the type of camera, burst mode (or continuous mode) may be slightly lower image quality.
Hopefully with these tips you can get pictures of good, such as holidays to resorts such as the Object Identify and Go Tours in Pandeglang. source: howstuffworks.com

Tips Choosing a Digital Camera

Before buying a digital camera, you need to know some terms related to the features found on a digital camera, as follows:
- Resolution (megapixels)
- The size, weight, and design
- Zoom lens
- Manual focus
- Storage media
- Batteries
- Movie (video) and sound
- Setting the lighting
- Menu
- Landscape mode
- White-balance
- LCD and viewfinder
- Anti vibration
- Wireless
Resolution (Megapixels)
If your goal is to buy a digital camera to just send a picture via email, or just to take a picture postcard size, the 1-megapixel resolution is sufficient. Indeed, with a large megapixel size you become more free to process the resulting image, such as large print quality is still good (if megapixels are used less, then the picture will look “broken” when printed in large sizes), or take some pictures (crop) with good quality.
Size, weight, and design
For some people, having a lightweight camera fits in your pocket or, perhaps more important than the resolution owned. Small camera is nice, but usually has a small button and limited. Also, small cameras usually do not have manual controls.

Zoom lens
Camera at a low price usually does not have an optical zoom lens facility. If you are faced with a choice between a camera that has a higher optical zoom, the camera resolution is higher, then you should select the optical zoom was higher. Because the optical zoom is better, you do not need to use software to help enlarge the picture and cut it (crop) because it will reduce the image resolution. We have cameras that offer up to 20X zoom level. Such lenses are ideal for nature photography or sports event. But if the camera used did not have the facility to stabilize a pretty good images, it may take a tripod to avoid image blur. Please note, some vendors are combining optical zoom with digital zoom – which take a picture with fewer number of pixels and digital zoom.
Manual focus
For taking pictures in close-up or in situations where the decision to use auto focus is less satisfactory, then switch to manual focus will give better results. Lower-class cameras usually do not have a manual focus feature.
Data storage
At the highest resolution, a 5-megapixel camera can store as many as 6 to 8 images on standard memory card 16 MB. The size of the camera memory card is built less important, because you usually have to buy memory cards with larger capacity. The price of a Compact Flash, SD (Secure Digital) Card, and SmartMedia cards ranges from $ 6 – $ 15 for 512 MB, or $ 25 – $ 40 for 2 GB. Type SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) offers a new 4 GB capacity (around $ 50) to 32 GB (about $ 350 – $ 700), but not compatible with standard SD slot. So make sure you choose a camera that supports SDHC card if you plan to buy it.
Batteries
The camera uses several types of batteries, including:
- AA (both types of alkaline which can not be recharge, or the type of nickel metal hydride (NiMH) which can be recharge)
- High-capacity disposable CRV3
- High quality rechargable batteries
Movie (video) and sound
Some cameras have a feature to record a movie (video). This option is useful to make a short clip if you do not have a camcorder. Some models can also record sound on a photograph. All you need to remember, a digital SLR camera can not take video.

Setting lighting
All digital cameras allow for shooting in full automatic model – just press the button, release, and you immediately get the result. Most cameras also offer aperture setting facility, where you can adjust the size of the lens opening or how long the lens cover open, and the camera automatically adjust other variables to provide appropriate lighting. This facility functions such as to create more background blur (fade) while the object at the front still look sharp.
Menu
When choosing a camera, consider the ease of access to public functions – such as resolution, macro mode, flash, and adjustment of lighting – and the ease of reviewing newly completed picture was photographed. If too many buttons, you’ll spend time guessing the function of a button, while the menu is too much you will spend time to search for the location of a function.

Senior Photographer

Landscape mode
Some cameras try to entice users – especially novices in the field of photography – with many options landscape mode, the setting and subject variations, such as beach, fireworks, and underwater. One of the important functions of the cameras is facial recognition (facial recognition). In detecting faces, trying to optimize camera focus and lighting of the subject, to produce a better effect than the general portrait mode on a camera there.
White-balance
Almost all digital cameras allow you to choose white-balance setting via presets available. This setting tells the camera what parts of a shot that must be seen more white, and the part which looks more black, and other parts must be seen how.
LCD and viewfinder
All digital cameras have an LCD screen, varied from 1.8 to 3.5 inches. Smaller size will limit the ability of the new review was photographed images. Several types of new camera has a LCD touch screen (touch screen), which can be used to determine the focus of a subject, or to select menu. LCD quality varies widely, too, there is less clear when exposed to light, there is also a mottled look at the lack of light conditions. If possible, try a camera outside the room before you decide to buy it.
Anti vibration
Some cameras offer anti-vibration function to stabilize the image as scene modes. This is very useful when you are in a situation that makes it difficult to take photos in sharp, as for example in less light conditions. One of the weaknesses of anti-vibration mode is that you can not use the other features related to the fashion scene.
Wireless
Using Wi-Fi to transfer images to a PC, printer, or photo sharing site sounds very interesting. But you have to try this feature before, because Wi-Fi features are not running smoothly in some cases and eventually will only add extra costs from the price of the camera.
Digital Camera Kodak EasyShare ZD710 [Alnect Computer]

Kodak EasyShare ZD710 is a combination of the 7 megapixel CCD with a Schneider-Kreuznach lens VARIOGON 38 to 380 mm with 10x capability. But this camera has no optical stabilization mechanism and mechanical stabilization that is needed when shooting are not using a tripod or cahaynya as low intensity. ZD710 is replaced with digital image stabilization which allows the use of high ISO that can prevent the image blur due to camera shaking. In addition to the live view LCD 2 “with a resolution of 150K pixels, this camera also has a view finder with a depth greater resolution, which is 201K pixels. Figure which has been taken, can be directly stored on SDHC / SD / MMC memory cards, or the internal His memory of 32MB.
As in ordinary digital cameras, camera that looks like this DSLR camera has scene modes for beginners that can help users to obtain the desired image without the need to struggle with setting the shutter speed, aperture, or the like. There are 16 scene modes are provided, ie portrait, sports, landscape, candlelight, night portrait, night landscape, snow, beach, text, fireworks, flower, manner / museum, self-portrait, children, backlight and sunset. But this camera also offers the use of enthusiastic, like P (program), A (aperture priority), S (shutter priority), M (manual), smart scene, high ISO, digital image stabilization and panorama. Ballance 5 white settings available here, including auto mode and ISO sensitivity that can be automatically gives a chance at 80, 100, 200, 400, 800 and 1.600, all at maximum resolution. For those who want to capture important moments, but not just a static image, video mode was already available here. There are 2 kinds of video capture means can be selected based on quality, VGA (640 x 480) or QVGA (320 x 240) at 30fps speed, as well as audio in it. Video on-encode in any format QuickTime Motion-JPEG.
All data contained in this ZD710 memory can be transferred to computer through USB 2.0 Full Speed, slower than most digital cameras that use USB 2.0 High Speed. Power comes from 2 AA battery (NiMH, lithium, or oxy-alkaline), a CRV3 disposable lithium, or rechargeable NiMH KAA2HR KODAK battery pack. Even so, this camera is bundled with a lithium battery is accompanied by chargernya sign.

DSLR Camera Canon EOS 1000D

Canon EOS 1000D (the term for the European region), or also known as the Digital Rebel XS or Canon EOS Kiss Digital F to Japanese territory, is a cheaper version of the 450D DSLR camera. Because it is a cheap version, of course there are some features cuts in some parts. Such as only using sensors with a capacity of 10.1 MP 450D using a 12.1 MP sensor registration. 7 point auto focus of the 9 point auto focus 450D owned.
Canon EOS 1000D comes with the kit lens with the size 18-55 EF-S IS F3.5-5.6. One of the advantages of this kit lens is the ability to image stabilizer which allows us to reduce speed to get the results shutterspeed more appropriate, without fear of image is blurred due to vibration tanggan when we pressed the shutter button. This camera uses a lens mount for EF lenses and EF-S, so that we can be more flexible in choosing what lens to use with this camera.
In terms of design, look no notable changes from the 450D. Only dimension smaller and weighs 25 grams lighter than the 450D, to be precise around 502 grams with battery or 450 grams without batteries. As a consequence, the material used looks and feels very fragile because it only uses regular plastic materials. Not only light, but also a more friendly price with this material. If you only use the LCD as The access certain menus alone, just 2.5 inches may be enough. The buttons are also highly structured and has its own characteristics in each of the buttons so that when we want to use the existing features, we do not need to see these buttons.
From the resulting picture quality, this camera can produce a pretty good images and match 450D image quality. This could be because DIGIC III processor is used. Pictures taken with high ISO was only given a little noise in dark areas. In addition, the use of digital view finder is better than the optical view finder.
Just as digital cameras other types of EOS, this camera is equipped with a sensor cleaning system that can help clear the dust from the sensor so that the images we are not bothered by the dust dirt. The way Canon EOS 1000D is cleaned with a vibration sensor is the ultrasonic wave and then use a low pass filter which has anti-static coating that can protect from dust.
Type of memory used in cameras Canon EOS 1000D is the primary (secure digital) memory cards and can also be used in SDHC memory type to a larger capacity. Because the current memory prices more affordable, and also the ability of this camera store is bigger, it is advisable to use a memory card with a large size or at least above 1G.
Like most entry-level DSLRs, and exactly like the 450D, EOS 1000D also provides a number of auto shooting modes aimed at beginners, including portrait, landscape, close-ups, sports and night portrait and flash off choices. All of these functions performed adequately in all aspects, apart from the close-up macro mode that did not come near to offering a true 1:1 reproduction (you’ll need a dedicated macro lens for that). All of these functions performed adequately in all aspects, apart from a close-up macro mode that can not produce a 1:1 image. Therefore we still need to take additional macro lens. Here of course there are also manual mode and semi-automatic for users who want to put forward exposure control. Canon refers to these advanced operations as the ‘creative zone’ and provides all the normal settings including program, and the full manual mode. Canon refers to this as a follow-up operation ‘creative zone’ and provides all the normal settings including program Aperture and Shutter Priority and full manual mode. In addition, Canon EOS 1000D also provides ‘A-DEP’ (Outomatic Depth of Field) which serves to give the difference between an object with the objects around them.
Canon EOS 1000D is designed to be used with battery grip BG-E5 type (optional, not included in the purchase dos camera) to add a battery with double type or the type of lithium AA battery which can be obtained easily at nearby stores if we running out of battery. Battery performance congenital Canon EOS 1000D (battery LP-E5 type) is good enough mentioned can be used to shoot kuranglebih at 500 times the normal condition, but it is very influential on how often you use the LCD to review or preview, also how much we use flash will affect the internal battery power. It is advisable to have a spare battery to avoid unexpected conditions.

DSLR Camera Canon EOS 450D

Canon EOS 450D or also often called Digital Rebel XSI actually been around since 2008. Do not know the month and date. This camera is intended for beginners and entry level dSLR camera to taste but with suitable price and with features that are not too well for the amateur. This camera came after his brother, Canon 350D and Canon 400D, a big success in the world market and became very popular.
Canon EOS 450D offers four configurations: body only (without lens), with a lens EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS, with the addition of the twin lens lens EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS, and enthusiast kit that comes with the lens EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM.
Which is different from earlier this camera is no longer using the DIGIC II processor, DIGIC III processor, but newer. Use of these processors create images this camera produced to be quite sharp and quite prominent in the details-details. As a catcher image, 450D uses a CMOS sensor 12.1 Mega pixels resolution with autofocus sensor is 9 points more accurate and fast enough.

Figures Diaphragm

Confused where the numbers “magically” come to the diaphragm bracelet? Here is an explanation
One of the basic theory of photography mentioned that every time down the diaphragm opening one-stop, means reducing the volume of light (which entered through the lens) as much as half. Conversely, if we widen the opening of the diaphragm one-stop, means increasing the volume of light as much as twice before. The explanation is as follows
Figures obtained from the ratio of the diaphragm between the lens focal length and diameter of the lens surface that serves to collect light. (f / stop = F / Ø)

So, if the lens has a diameter of 50 mm (diameter = diameter of the lens (glass) rather than the diameter of the filter holder) width of 50 mm it is said he has a diaphragm f / 1 (50 mm: 50 mm). This is a very powerful lens collects light and is currently only one manufacturer produced by the camera (canon).
From here can be calculated – using a normal lens with a maximum opening of f / 1.4 – how much the lens diameter is used to collect light.
50 mm: f / 1.4 = 35.7 mm
(rounding of 35.7142857 …….)²²
When we realize that the light is responsible for collecting the entire lens surface area in question, these calculations become more attractive again. Junior still remembers the lessons that the formula to find the area of a circle is equal to πr ² (pi r squared)? Or 22 / 7 times the radius times the radius?
So, if the radius of the lens diameter 50 mm f / 1.4 is 17.85 mm (35.7: 2) then the surface area of the lens is
π x 17.85 ²
= 3.1415926535897932384626433832795 x 318.6225
= 1000.982105268413896122063591389 mm ² (rounded to 1001 mm ²)
If we reduce the diaphragm one stop to f / 2, kemampua cahya from lens collecting the relevant be down by half. With the diaphragm f / 2, the lens diameter virtually had “changed” to 25 mm (50 mm: f / 2). The radius of the lens becomes 12.5 mm
Surface area (virtual) lens in question becomes
π x 12.5 ²
= 3.1415926535897932384626433832795 x 156.25
= 490.87385212340519350978802863742 mm ² (rounded to 491 mm ²)
Why not be half? 491 mm ² Does not have half of the 1001 mm ²?
Keep in mind that in photography there are a lot of rounding and compromise. 491 mm ² numbers are very close to half of the 1000 mm ². Besides differences in 9 mm ² area will be very little difference in the results of shooting.
However, if you are still curious, too, we see just why are not actually made half (500 mm ²). If so, we count back to
500 mm ²: π
= 500: 3.1415926535897932384626433832795
= 159.15494309189533576888376337251
159.15494309189533576888376337251 is the root of the radius of the lens, ie 12.615662610100800241235747611828 mm

From here to get the numbers as 25.231325220201600482471495223657 mm diameter. f / stop lens in question is
50 mm: 25.231325220201600482471495223657
= F / 1.9816636488030055066725143825606

The question now is, these numbers muatkah series to be written on the band width diaphragm that cute? Moreover is not it very obvious now that the actual f / 1.98, and so it was very close to f / 2?

We continue with the following diaphragm opening, which is f / 2.8 as well to show more about rounding and compromise earlier.

Virtual diameter 50 mm lens at f / 2.8 is
50mm f / 2.8 = 17.85 mm
(from 17.857142857142857142857142857143)
Radius is 17.85: 2 = 8.925 mm

Surface area:
π x 8.925 ²
= 3.1415926535897932384626433832795 x 79.655625
= 250.2455263171034740305158978472 mm ²
Or 250 mm ². Uhapir half of the previous surface area and a quarter of the area on the diaphragm permyukaan f / 1.4.

With this formula, the surface area of f / 4 is
122.71846303085129837744700715936 mm ² (rounded to 123 mm ² once again almost half of previous)

Surface area of the lens from one diaphragm to the other diaphragm less than half the range (if reduced) or twice (if raised) from the previous value.
In conjunction with shutter speed, seems clear enough that by reducing the volume of the light half (-1 stop) automatically takes twice as long (+1 stop), and vice versa, by doubling the volume of light, the time needed also becomes more rapid two – fold.

Then, do you know that there are several versions of the true meaning of the f / stop? F / stop (small f) can mean one below.
a. abbreviation of fenestra (Latin) which means “window” (interpreted as the opening of diaphragm forming a “window” for cahya to enter through the lens).
b. Abbreviations of the function (function) or fraction (fractional)
c. The symbol of the focal length (focal length) divided by the diameter of the opening (aperture)
d. From a legendary photographers (Ansel Adams) who was the form of the letter ‘f’ for the opening of the diaphragm more “beautiful” and “artistic” American standard of writing that had popular in the early 20th-century ago (eg, U.S. 1 to f / 4, US4 to f / 8, and so on).

Whichever you believe, he explained the word “stop” represents a shift of the diaphragm into the diaphragm opening of others who have stopped at the point of control bracelet.

Revealing the Secret Photo Excellent
This paper is an adaptation of an article in photosecrets.com, I like it and prefer to read them in their own language, with its own style. At first I was published in the forum thread, but for the common weal I move them to page the article. Hopefully useful, especially for me and other beginners, and for the senior pictures are fine of course, I’m sorry, because some of your secrets become common knowledge. But of course, without training and persistent effort, this article will only be used to true stories we read in the newspaper.

We have a friend named photography, the perfect friend in travel, service to the area, pilgrimage, picnic, going home or climbing the hill. Photography makes us confident that we explore the places visited, people we meet; photography make a more meaningful way, and we enjoy the fun with her love of art. Photography makes us more grateful for the gift of sight and the chance to see the signs of divine majesty. Pleasure that can not be measured and measuring.

Photography became a strong reason for our activities, go visit various places previously had no plans, come home late, buy equipment, and so on. Burning desire to get a steady shooting pains encourages us explore a place through the bushes, turning what would mutari we take pictures, searching to find the angle of the unique and unforgettable beauty, sometimes the search is also at risk of fatal if not done with caution and calculation logic.

Finding the best viewpoint is perisitiwa big, your heart beating, while you look at him with eyes shining, you might think, is this the right time to take a picture, you may be setting up camp and waited for the best moment from time to time, from dawn till Asar, from March until December. You become a resilient and patient.

When you press the shutter release, you tie a braided sweet person with a place and its people. You are there. Photographic memory protect your encounter with what is in it. Then we show to others about places and exciting atmosphere in which we had there, majestic scenery, the people are amazing. Your soul was drawn.

The pictures like affect our minds, like teasing us, forcing us to play in it or imagining it. The photographs that we create can encourage others to want to experience the beauty or the fun that presented the image. Of course, the beautiful landscape photos and the sexy model will generate the desire and imagination are different. Desire that arises unconsciously.

Anyone can become a member fotografer.net. That means anyone can take pictures. With the addition of creative thought and effort do not know falls, you can create great images that show your creations and interpretations of what you see and snap. Indeed the velocity and acceleration of the achievement of each person is different, one could be overtaken another, but not what was reasonable. Do not upset.

Fortunately, the good do not need expensive, good photographs can be made with minimal equipment and little knowledge of technical data. The secret is to look at the artistic and critical. The art of seeing. Bisikanlah this question in the heart: What I see, and how I see it? A good photograph has qualities that demonstrate the skills, artistry, attraction, and the personality of the photographer. So we can know what a good picture. But can not know what a bad picture, ask why?

What Makes a Good Photo?
Good photographs are images that contain messages. The message can include a statement (This is Lake Toba), impression (Dusk atmosphere in Lake Toba), or expressions of emotion (Love in Lake Toba). Messages bagusadalah clear message, firmly and effectively. But how?
The message needs a subject. About what you want to convey. That might be one that you know, landscape, or abstract forms. The subject is the center of the POI and are usually placed in the foreground. Then we set the message by entering the second part, namely context, often the background. Context provides relevance, the existence, location, subject, or other interests. The message is a combination of two elements of the subject and context, foreground and background narrating the message.

As the importance of knowing what needs to be inserted into the message, we also need to know what you do not need to be incorporated into the message. Apasaja that are not part of the subject or context of the message that we make, then it is just a thorn or glass annoying, scratching pictures and make our message becomes unclear. So cut the parts that are not relevant in some POI usually with inching closer to the subject, or move to get a better viewpoint and make shots clear and clean. A painter creates art with the addition of adding what he painted as a photographer to create art with a reduction reduces the parts that do not need.

Recipe for a good photograph is:
“A foreground, a background, and nothing else.”

What Makes a Great Photo?

Great photos directly stunning eyes. While the proverb says: picture may say a thousand words, then the extraordinary photos only say one word: Wow!

A great photograph is a work of art. It captures the spirit of the subject and evokes emotion. Bob Krist called The Spirit of Place. You can also use tricks to make palpable awe visitors your photo gallery. Let’s see how.

A picture is a playground, there are places where our eyes wander and watch, also the space where our eyes to rest and relax. When we first see something, we act to not be affected. Our eyes are naturally found a light, bright areas, and find people, usually in the eyes and mouth. Do we know the people in the picture? What they feel and how does this relate to us? Are they drawing attention to something? If so, whether we recognize it (a building, a landmark) and what he? About whether these pictures? What main subject or objective? How big is the subject? We determine the scale by comparing elements with something that we know sizes, such as people, animals, or cars. Once we finished watching people and elements related, we continue our attention to elements that more abstract.

First we look at the color or tone of the subject. Red hot, cool, distant blue, natural green, black silence. Then we see the shape. Gentle curves, tight corners, the lines that sweep. How light on the subject provides subtle shadows of three-dimensional shapes. You, as a photographer, can manipulate it all by looking for light and dark, shifting the intensity of tone and hue. How the eye drawn into the picture?

Guide us in the form of texture, how the subject feels the touch. He Lembutkah, haluskah it, hard or rough? Would have character and warmth? The way the elements are juxtaposed and are influenced by the same light, makes us consider their quality and relevance. This balance leads our eye from one element to another element, investigating its unity, contrast, and detail, each item to add fun to the next item. What relation to one another of all that?

As an artist, you are faced with choices that will reveal the sense of the art you. Composition as a whole, the proportion of layout, presentation of other elements are important, you can determine which features you need, and what is best to emphasize your message.

Recipe for great photos are:
Consider how the elements related overall.

What Makes Photo Eye-Catching?

Back to the eye-catching nature of extraordinary photographs, along with his secret, just 4 keys: simplicity, color, light and depth.

Simplicity: Simplicity in art is also known as the visual economy, which eliminates all the elements or details that do not need that there is no contribution to the spirit of the composition as a whole.

Simplicity can be achieved in several ways:
• reduce the number and type of object to be targeted
• photographing closer to the subject, or if the lens can zoom in, zoom
• You can also remove elements that do not need to go through the path photoshop

Color: To create an impact on your photographs is to find a prominent color patterns. Red flowers, blue sky, sunset yellow, or green leaves. Once again, simplicity is the key to try to reduce the number and type of color in your shots for better impact. In general, a photograph should have only one main subject and one main color. Concentrate on only one of the three primary colors: red, blue or yellow. Three dominant color is very good balanced by its complement colors, namely red with green, blue with orange, and yellow with purple.
There are several ways to highlight the color, the first is to use a polarizer filter. The second way to limit the range of dark to light. Get rid of areas that are too dark or too light compared to your main subject. The third way by using Velvia slide film. The fourth way: select the best time in accordance with the purpose of your photographs:
5 hours: Morning: pink, light a very smooth and light mist to lakes, rivers and scenery.

6 hours: Sunrise: Light crispy, golden. Fit for subjects facing the east.

10 hrs 14: Middle-day: not suitable for the scene and pictures of people, but good for pictures of buildings and monuments. The colors and detail of the building is very well documented.

14 hrs 16: In the afternoon: blue sky with a polarizer.

16 hrs 18: Dusk Day: Light a warm, golden. Fit subjects facing west. The best time for landscape and people, especially one hour before sunset.

18 18:30 hours: Sunset: The sky is beautiful, starting 10 minutes before sunset until 10 minutes later.

18:30 hrs 19:30: Sunset: Photo of a beautiful night, the lights were still bernyalaan while the sky looked purple.

Light: good lighting is often the key to championship photos. The use of daylight can also effectively improve your photos. To achieve such beautiful pictures in National Geographic, Photo capture the golden light appeared after sunrise and before sunset, often called the magic hours of the photographer. Let’s see more details of the best times over.

Depth: Include a sense of depth to your picture. The depth can be achieved by DOF settings, placement of elements in the photograph, and lighting. Exposure, exposure / lighting are: the number of rays received by the sensor / film. If less light so the image tends to look dark / under, while what if excess of the photos will look tends description / over …
Lighting itself is a combination of AV / aperture value that is the size of the diaphragm, TV / time value / shutter speed of the shutter opening duration, and the last ISO / iternasional standards organization which in this case is an international standard for the sensitivity level sensor / film …
This exposure alone is often not as dianalogi we want to fill the glass with water from the tap … Where is the tap rotation compared with the aperture, while the tap is opened compared with the shutter speed, compared with the ISO glass, water pressure compared with the intensity of illumination (light or low light), and finally water compared with the light … So if the faucet wide open so we’ll quickly full glass … While we tap kecilin reply then the glass will be longer completely … And when we pake large glass (low-iso) then we will also be longer to fill the glass, unlike if we kecilin glass (high iso) so the glass would be full faster … But still large digelas water more than that in a small glass … Similarly, the water pressure, the higher the water pressure (bright light conditions), or the smaller the water pressure (low light) will affect the charging time … But sometimes before we have a full glass of tap it happens to hail a state under … Or just the opposite even though the glass is full but we are closing the tap belom the situation over there …
Ease today this exposure was calculated automatically by the camera with a name metering system. It works like Matering light / flash meters. The difference in this system can measure continuous light just … And another advantage is the technology now we can analyze the image from the histogram on camera … While ancient kalo a photographer must carry a bundle of records containing such things as photographs reply av broad daylight, tv, how the iso it all, there are clouds continue to reply so many, many reply that afternoon, and so on …
Now working principle of this metering determines exposure itself is gray 18% (according to the gray card) in a lighting condition … So when we photographed the object or situation the dominant white / light / hi key abu-abu/gelap will look at our photos, and when we photographed the dominant object in black / dark / low key will also be seen a gray / at our pictures are brighter than actual circumstances … And hence we have the camera exposure compensation (in the two-digit class number -2 to 2).
And conclusions also reply to a picture with the right exposure (exposure corect) yes measuring / metering is on the gray card placed on the lighting would we measure exposurenya …
And one more if the contras between where the most dark or bright cause has not caught again Full Story at dark or bright places are, then you have to choose between being on the exposure or sacrifice one of them (keep in the shadows Story or at the light). .. Sukur-sukur not reply vast dark place and we can lift the (fill in) with artificial illumination such as flash …
At the time, high contrast is needed dynamic range camera with a wide range or use the usual editing techniques we call HDR …
Return to the components of the exposure:

a. Aperture
Aperture has the following rates (for shift 1 stop): … 1; 1.4; 2; 2.8; 4; 5.6; 8; 11; 16; 22; 32; …
Numbers above mean itself is an open hole on the lens we like (number above) from the broad lens of our … That need to be seen how the aperture affects our image that is more wide open aperture (small number) the more narrower / shorter DOF / space we get a sharp … And the narrower the hole (large number) it will get longer DOF / space we get a sharp …
Regarding input from oom Kana Lay there is a theory that a lens that will record a maximum of lenses in the subject when aperturnya set about 3 stops from the aperture is narrower broadest … Example: if the lens with the widest opening 2.8; terbeningnya the images will be found in the opening 8 …

b. Shutter Speed
There are also numbers on the shutter speed is as follows (for a shift in one stop): … 8000, 4000, 2000, 1000, 500, 250, 125, 60, 30, 15, 8, 4, 0’5, 1 ‘, 2 ‘, 4′, 8 ‘, 15′, 30 ‘, bulb (for a camera shutter button to continue recording) … Numbers above mean itself is like (number above) seconds and seconds to sign ‘. That need to be seen how speed affects our image that is: with a high speed moving subject (particularly silence) will look frozen, so look sharp … While in low speed motion (movement) of the moving subject will also be recorded by the camera … And if dilamakan again at a certain time moving object will not be recorded by the camera at all (not present in the photo) …
Now to determine their own speed so that our image freze (frozen) and a sharp two things to consider:

b1. Minimum speed to freeze subject motion (subject motion)
Basically the various levels of shutter speed to freeze the subject … This is strongly influenced by the speed of the subject itself … As the reply was photographed pause (poses) with 0.5 seconds may still frozen … But the speed of the frozen much for reply belom street person … Between the road and running speed is also different for the freeze … Movement on the stage may be frozen at the speed 1/125dtk … But maybe could freeze belom street bike … So it is with people who are racing course should be even faster speed to freeze … But apart from the speed of the subject itself, there are other things also affect the subject distance and direction of our movement … The closer the subject the more rapid the movement … This is why aircraft fly so fast but it seemed slow when the sky … Because distance emang far … Kalo sabject direction of movement toward or away from us will be different from the speed when moving parallel to the sisubject our view …

b2. Minimum speed the capture of hands held way (by holding the camera without a pedestal or tripot)
In principle, the long focal length the more we use it will be more easy movement on our camera, which will take recorded on the photo … Held hands eating this formula associated with the long focal length that is speed = 1 / (long focal length)
Well this is where the IS (image stabilizer) was very influential … IS my own prisipnya by analogy with Shockbreaker the car … Technology serves to reduce vibration happens … Maybe that is often a question where the hell IS bagusan on what lens to the body … Kalo my personal opinion, the same analogy as a shock to move from a motor under the seat to be near the wheel … Quencher placed closer to the source of more efficient work … Yes of course IS the better lens for more light first movement into the new lens forwarded to the sensor … But IS also has limitations in reducing the vibration …
So while speed is too slow that we should use tripot … Actually there are two tripot function, which I will explain only part focusing on … Satuhal that needs to remember, turn off IS if you take pictures using tripot

That should be emphasized here:
- IS and Tripot only to dampen vibration on camera … But not to freeze the subject …
- Not all photos have to freeze it, because there are some pictures that are beautiful if we use such a low speed stream photographed to look like cotton, photographing the car lights are there in the street, and even in the action stage also will be more beautiful if slightly motionnya caught.
- There are even pictures of where the camera techniques deliberately shaken at low speed …

c. ISO
Figures from the ISO itself is (for a change 1 stop): … 50, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200, 6400, … The higher the ISO number the more sensitive the sensor / film when exposed to light … I need to know how the ISO affects our image, namely: higher iso will likely cause more image noise, less contrast, less resolution …

A little addition to the figures above related to the stop is as follows: when you take a picture with the exposure speed 60, the diaphragm 8, and ISO 100 … Apparently you think your subject is less frozen and decided to raise the speed to 125 (1 stop) … To get the exposure value (the same light dark in the photo) then you have to expand your diaphragm opening to 5.6 (from 8 to 5.6 = 1 stop) or you should increase your iso to 200 (up 1 stop) … Well this is the technical factors that make each photographer’s photos of different … In certain circumstances there are photographers who prefer to sacrifice speed, there is a sacrifice ruangtajam, and there is more tolerance for noise is the picture of them …
Well this is where you will decide to use the mode where the creative zone … Kalo your priorities in the diaphragm for example because you want to get a stable dof use AV mode because your aperture will always remain, and your speed will automatically look for camera … But your reply on priorities such as speed subjectnya want to be frozen, use the tv mode because your speed will always remain while the aperture will be determined automatically by the camera … Kalo fixed which occurred on Stelan TV example, you specify you want to take on speed 125 … figure your exposure on camera metering and 2.8 show the number you are using a lens with f terlebarnya maximal 2.8. Then the numbers flashing, it indicates the level of iso you’re using it, although still under the automatic setting is resolved by the camera (in this aperture) is the maximum … Means you must raise the ISO to aperturnya not blink again so that you get the exposure right … Normally when you blink reply forced to take pictures without changing the ISO, it will adjust itself speednya which in this case to a lower speed if you’re using tv mode …
O it, if you doubt terhadapa exposure value you want it, it’s good you do braketing (AEB = auto exposure baketing) … That is a facility of the camera where the three frames that we will have pictures under the size, the right size according to camera, and size over … How stop under and we can overnya stel … So every subject we have a portrait photograph of three times, and we’ll get three photos with different exposure … How to settingnya: menu -> AEB -> Set -> quick control dial (to determine how stopnya) -> set.
