Lead: UAV is an unmanned aerial vehicle controlled by radio remote control equipment and its own program control device, or completely or intermittently controlled by on-board computer. Below I share the aerial photography skills of drones, welcome to refer!

First, the shooting method

In the field of professional photography, long exposure is very popular with photographers, especially in landscape photography, there are often dazzling night scenes, silky running water, long tracks of headlights, light graffiti and so on. This effect can also be achieved on drones. The shooting principle is the same as the long exposure principle of SLR camera, which increases the exposure time, allows the camera to record the movement track of light and absorb more light.

Guangzhou changed the shooting mode of PTZ camera to manual mode, adjusted the shutter, ISO, color temperature and other parameters, and selected the appropriate exposure time.

The first step is to adjust the shutter speed to a longer exposure time, such as 1 second, 2 seconds or even 4 seconds.

The second step is to adjust ISO parameters and use lower ISO values, such as ISO200, ISO 160, ISO 100, etc. A lower ISO can get a better picture quality, while a higher ISO will increase the' noise' of night scenes, which will lead to overexposure of the picture.

The third step is to observe whether the exposure of the picture is accurate. If overexposed, ISO will be reduced or exposure time will be shortened. If the exposure is insufficient, the ISO will increase or the exposure time will be prolonged.

2. Precautions: flight safety, do not control the drone when shooting.

If you want to control the drone at high altitude, you must first pay attention to the safety of the drone. For example, during the test flight, I took off from Guangzhou Sports Center and flew over Tian Huan Square on the road network. When it rises to the height of 70 meters, the image signal begins to interfere, and then it flies upwards, so it loses the image and can only fly visually. In the city, because it is an office building, reinforced concrete will interfere with GPS signals, and mirror reflection will also interfere with the control of drones. So, in the process of shooting, I had to.

When shooting, you can't control the remote control lever of the drone during the exposure time, otherwise the image will shake and the picture will be unclear.

Second, shooting skills

Hint 1: flip angle

Let the target lie on the ground. Try to stretch and pose as you want. The specific pose can be chosen by the photographer according to his own freestyle.

Tip 2: Find the symmetry axis.

Very classic composition method: control the drone to fly to the sky and have a bird's eye view. Many buildings in our life are built according to the central symmetry method. Find the symmetry axis of the picture correctly, and you will get unexpected aerial photography results.

Tip 3: Use a dividing line.

Using the road as the dividing line of the picture, the picture taken is so beautiful!

Tip 4: Learn to capture some unique patterns.

In life, many places look chaotic, but once they are photographed from the sky by drones, all kinds of chaotic designs can be pieced together to make a different kind of beauty.

Tip 5: Take a bird's eye view of the panorama.

Very simple operation method: UAV takes off-shooting-air rotation angle-shooting again.

Tip 6: Look for contrast.

Good at using color contrast to express the beauty of the picture.

Tip 7: Learn to take selfies.

When you really show your freestyle. First, we look for a plain as the background. The surface soil cracked, but it felt good when shooting.

Tip 8: Use repetitive themes.

Simply put, there is no single clear subject in the shot picture, and the subject may be a group of the same things. Although the main body in the shooting picture is not big, it has been appearing repeatedly, and it is naturally highlighted.

Tip 9: Look for abstract and irregular pictures.

Tip 10: Capture shadows

Use sunlight to lengthen shadows, and use shadows to describe pictures.

Tip 1 1: shoot the horizon.

Try to find some unique and inaccessible shooting angles to shoot.
