Difference between revisions of "Taking Pictures with Different Cameras"

<code>''Remember that the way you orient your camera most of the time is landscape or horizontal. It is good to know that there are other orientations, such as a portrait one, and it is advisable to experiment with multiple orientations and taking pictures at various distances from the subject, as this offers more opportunities on editing.''</code>

It may seem all to obvious how you should take a photo, however, to the best of my judgement, I made a list of quick suggestions to apply while the remainder of the page shows them in particular details. This should ensure you take at least above average shots, when given the chance.

Ensure you have the right setup on your first photo. It is easy to forget what you used last time, so you need to get your camera back to the typical settings. That means no optical zoom or having the default camera focus length, the default 4:3 or 3:2 image ratio, a clean lens (particularly for smartphones), and a well-charged battery.

* Decide whether you want a wide or a narrow angle shot, a portrait or a landscape one before doing anything else;

* Attempt a quick initial framing to give a good idea on the optimal distance to the subject, do not take a picture yet;
