The demand for photographing cats can be as simple as a camera and a mirror. As for which lens to choose, it depends on what kind of shooting effect you want. For example:

Fisheye lens-can be placed a few centimeters in front of the cat to shoot the effect of a big-headed cat;

Wide-angle lens-such as 12mm, can shoot the cat and the surrounding environment, increasing the chances of success, but be careful that the cat becomes too small and not prominent enough;

Standard lens-such as 35-50mm, of which 50mm large aperture lens can easily capture cats with shallow depth of field effect, but it is only suitable for cats who are not afraid of people, so as to be close to shooting;

Telephoto lens-for example, 200mm, if we shoot close to the cat or are afraid of standing too close to scare it away, we can start with telephoto lens, imagine ourselves as a spy, and keep a distance to shoot the cat in the distance;

Macro lens-if you want to be special, you can try to shoot at a very close distance with a macro lens, so that the cat's eyes and hair can be presented one by one. Recommend it to your domestic cat.

When holding a camera, you need to keep a safe shutter, but a moving cat needs a faster shutter, such as 1/400 s. Whether indoors or outdoors, you can increase or enlarge the ISO aperture to get a faster shutter speed.

Cats' eyes are a little special. In bright environment, their pupils will shrink into a narrow vertical line, and in dark environment, they will Zhang Kaicheng into a circle. Most people think that round pupils look cute. To shoot such eyes, it is necessary to use jumping lights in a dark indoor environment.

As the saying goes, the eyes are the windows to the soul. In portrait photography, the focus is often on the eyes, so pay attention to the grasp of eye light. The same is true of cats, whose innocent eyes are bright and lovely, sometimes naughty and sometimes lazy. As long as you capture the cat's wonderful eyes, you will shoot an excellent pet photography.
