  • There are many things to learn about taking good photos. The first and most important of these is keeping the camera steady. A steady camera captures clear and sharp photos. Moving the camera makes the photos blurry and is one of the most common mistake beginners make. So how can you keep the camera steady?
    ::拍摄好照片有很多事情需要学习。 其中第一件也是最重要的就是保持相机稳定。 稳定的相机可以捕捉清晰而锋利的照片。 移动相机会使照片模糊不清, 并且是最常见的错误初犯者之一。 因此, 您如何保持相机稳定 ?

    One way to keep the camera steady is to use a tripod. A tripod is a stand with three legs. Many photographers also use a monopod. Like it sounds, a monopod is a stand with only one leg. Tripods and monopods allow you to hold the camera on something solid, so it's easier to keep the camera steady.
    ::保持相机稳定的方法之一是使用三脚架。 三脚架是三条腿的立方体。 许多摄影师也使用单脚架。 听起来, 单脚架只是一条腿的立方体。 三脚架和单脚架可以让你把相机固定在坚固的东西上, 所以让相机固定起来比较容易。

    If you don't have a tripod or monopod, try setting the camera on a solid surface, like a table, chair back, a fence, a railing...
    ::如果你没有三脚踏板或单脚踏板, 尝试设置相机在坚固的表面, 像一张桌子,椅子背, 栅栏,栏杆...

    Even without something else to steady the camera, it’s possible to hold the camera very steady - if you know how. Stand with your feet firmly on the ground, shoulder width apart, and weight evenly distributed. Hold the camera with both hands and pull your elbows in to brace them against your body.
    ::即使没有其他东西可以固定相机,也有可能非常稳定地保持相机,如果你知道如何。 站稳地站在地上,肩膀宽度分开,重量均匀地分布。 用双手握住相机,拉起手肘,对准身体。

    Variations include sitting or kneeling. In this example, notice how the photographer braces her arm and elbow on her knee.
    ::不同之处包括坐着或跪着。在这个例子中,请注意摄影师如何将她的手臂和膝盖肘套住。
