Comparison of Nikon and Canon

Comparison of Nikon and Canon

At today's DSLR cameras have a very trend and looks slang, DSLR cameras often makes a person self-confidence not to make money: D that's what I see in the field. the fact that 80% of women over men approached someone who has a camera? if true, yes, of course, women prefer to take pictures selfie published to social media, especially in a photo by using a very good camera.

 DSLR camera is now very easy to be found, many people who pick and would like to have. Actually, there are many brands to choose from a DSLR camera but many people prefer to choose a DSLR camera brand Canon or Nikon, both have brand big enough for the world pioneer photographers often use the second brand.

In this review will discuss the difference between Nikon and Canon DSLR cameras. Starting from Canon, Canon camera in the world in particular is very well known and widely produce DSLR cameras that have a good quality. Canon provides several collections of complete and high quality lenses. All types of lenses in the Canon, you can get different types of lenses that fit your needs. In addition, the quality of the resulting picture is better. For beginners is available a wide choice of shapes and models. The price is affordable ranging from 100 USD to 5000 USD or more. Wow fantastic, therefore adjust as needed if you want to start living in the world of photography.

Canon cameras have different shapes that vary according to the model, the beginner can select them according to individual taste. Canon's in-camera image quality is also tiered according to the series. Canon 50D, the picture quality is 10 Mp or 10 megapixels to 15 megapixels 60D image quality, and for the 70D is 18 megapixels. Thus, each level of the camera provides picture quality is different. Of course the price also varies according to the series and also the features that will be obtained. If the observed overall, Canon DSLR cameras have faster image processing so facilitate you learn photography. Canon camera also has 3 categories, namely cameras for the amateur with a series of four or three numbers eg Canon 1100 D, Canon 550 D, for a series of semi-professionals that Canon 60 D, 50 D, 40 D has a series of two numbers, and professionals have one digit Canon 5 D Mark I, II, II Canon 1 Dx etc.

Canon cameras are often recommended for beginners, due to lens upgrade price is quite affordable.

After identifying a Canon DSLR camera, you should be familiar with Nikon digital SLR cameras. Nikon DSLR cameras are not less good with Canon DSLR. In this review will compare to see the difference Canon and Nikon DSLR cameras. Judging from the shape, Nikon DSL camera was lost by Canon. Nikon has the form interface is arguably simpler not easily grasped as the Canon, but the Nikon DSLR cameras have many advantages compared with Canon DSLR cameras.

Nikon DSLR cameras have many features that are not owned by Canon, one of which is a feature that can photograph objects in the dark. In Nikon lot of additional features that can satisfy the lovers of photography. Comparison of Nikon and Canon DSLR cameras not only in its course, but the model. To issue a Nikon camera models clearly far less than the Canon. I think the canon: D, unless I am definitely more favor Nikon users Nikon, Sorry kidding: D! Canon has a form that is easy to use while the Nikon camera is rather difficult to operate, even when viewed from its Nikon far superior than Canon. Judging from the quality of the picture, Nikon also lost because Canon can shoot up to 18 mega pixels while Nikon can still only 12 megapixels. But back to the philosophy of a photographer, not all the images of high value by using an expensive camera, a camera phone can make the value of a photograph is very expensive, for example, photo moment is rare, and the moment the personal that can not be paid with money and very valuable for personal itself.

Then, how is it better than the Canon or Nikon Nikon better than Canon? To take the decision we have to go back kekebutuhan our initial intention, do not get confused because all the cameras CANON and NIKON very cool and extraordinary. !

How to create photo blur on DSLR cameras

How to create photo blur on DSLR cameras

Hello, all .

this time I will make an article about how to create a blur effect in photographs using a digital SLR camera. The following questions are often catapult by some people who are new to the world of photography.

1. how the camera settings to create a blur?

2. Composition Exif camera should be how to make photos ngblur

3 etc which I can not write here,

The beauty of a photograph can be seen from the uniqueness of the object that produced on the creativity of someone taking her picture, while one of the things that will enhance the effect of 1 focus back or front becomes ngblur, but do not disturb or destroy the photograph them. Blur effect in photography often at say bokeh, nah apasih it bokeh? bokeh has several meanings of any photographer in particular certainly have different opinions, but it refers to the one thing that is the area that can be said ngblur or ut of focus, as shown below.

then what if we will make the images into bokeh / blur without decreasing and disrupting the value of a photograph? blur effect can we make with the natural result of camera and lens we are also using image processing applications, one of which is Adobe Photoshop. His tutorial here.

Depth of Field and Bokeh

The camera lens is designed to focus on a certain distance range (not at a certain point, a misunderstanding is often the case). This distance range is called depth of field (or often also called depth-of-field / DOF). The objects are located in space will look sharp crisp and sharp objects in outer space would look blurry. The farther away the object from the DOF, will look more blurry. Therefore, one way to 'add' bokeh is to keep the background of the object. I think the camera lens has a system like our eyes, let praktikan a balpoint we hold and face-to our eyes and focusing on one point, namely the tip balpoint, then that will be visible behind ngblur, as well as lenses, the lens has a feature aperature, different lenses Also different aperaturenya facilities.

Objects with the same distance will look more membokeh if DOF diminishing. Therefore, if the pursuit of bokeh (alone), we can do it with a narrow DOF. What factors are affecting the thick / thin DOF?

1. Aperture

If we take pictures with the same lens (focal lengthnya), with the same scene, makaaperture larger (smaller aperture numbers) will produce DOF thinner, and therefore more bokeh results. As if the lens itself does not have a focal lengt, for example, 50 mm canon lens.

2. Focal length

With distance, aperture, and the same scene, then a lens with a focal length larger (zoom) will have the DOF thinner, making it more bokeh.

The point when we increase the zoom to the object image produced will ngblur and focusing on one point only, and vice versa.

3. The distance to the object

With a focal length, aperture, and the same scene, the greater the distance of the object, the thicker DOFnya. The more we approach the object, the thin DOFnya (and increasingly bokeh).

But in practice, if we use a lens with a focal length that is greater, we should retreat away from the object to get the same composition and that is wide enough so that the composition of the picture is more elegant, Focal length greater the more narrow the DOF, the distance to the objects farther away more strengthen DOF; These two effects cancel each other out.

CONCLUSION

So, as a summary, in order to strengthen the bokeh effect, we can:

- Using a larger aperture (smaller number). In the canon of 50 mm, F 1,8 = maximum blur F 23 Sharper all objects not ngblur!

- Keep the background with the object

- Move closer to the foreground camera

- Using a lens with a focal length more telephoto (only visible lebihbokeh)

- Approaching the object without changing the focal length (possibly changing composition)

Keep in mind, the things above only affect the degree to blur late or kebokehan only. Quality or

So, when to start practicing creating bokeh in the photo? :)

Hopefully useful, and soon learn how to practice it, if you do not understand please comment below ya

LEARN TO ANALYZE THE LENS CAMERA LENS WHEN YOU BUY

LEARN TO ANALYZE THE LENS CAMERA LENS WHEN YOU BUY

Hallo guys !! 

Maybe for those who are new to the world of photography is very confusing when choosing a good lens for use, one type of lens below.

Tamron AF 17-50mm f / 2.8 SP XR Di II LD Aspherical [IF] VC

No one knows what the meaning of each name at the top? Very long! And filled with stands! More dizziness again, each lens manufacturers use different terms to say the same thing .. So even if we already know the meaning of terms Tamron lens, for example, we will still see the term confusion Sigma lenses! Or any other brand lenses.

Let's get on with it!

Through this article I tried to explain what are the specifications that could exist in the lens, and its use. Unfortunately I have not memorized the term used each lens manufacturers to label their lenses, so maybe you need to browse alone to see the list of terms used to refer to the specification described here. Because too many different names used by each lens producers, such as sigma and tamfron.

1. Focal length (real and equivalent)

Focal length is the distance of the focus point of the lens. This affects the width of the field of view lens (FL equivalents), thick sharp space (FL real), and the ratio of the size of objects that are different distances from the lens (FL equivalent). The bigger the FL lens, the field of view will be more narrow (as if we approach the object), depth of field will be more narrow (in distance and aperture are the same), and objects distant (background) will look more similar in size to the object -benda near (foreground or main object). The equation is the size commonly referred to as (effect) compression: because objects behind the visible size is not too different from the object in front, they look as if it is closer to one another. That's according to the professionals different again with the commonly used definition of a layman, the lens 'zoom' means that the lens has a varied FL. For example, as the above example, FL has a 17-50mm. A lens that can make us as if approaching object is called a telephoto lens (FFL), and telephoto lenses usually have FL 135mm upwards. On the other hand, could have a telephoto lens is also a zoom lens, for example 150-500mm lens with FL (large FLnya = tele, FLnya vary = zoom). The opposite of tele is wide (wide field of view, small FL).

What does that mean in real FL and equivalents? FL Real means that number refers to the focal distance of the lens itself. FL equivalent of a lens refers to a lens whose focal distance when mounted on fullframe cameras will have a field of view (field of view) are the same as the lens (if installed in the camera).

For example: a 50mm lens when mounted on a camera Olympus PEN will have the same field of view with a 100mm lens on fullframe cameras. Then, a 50mm lens FL is said to have the equivalent of 100mm on the Olympus PEN cameras. Multiplier (2x) is called "crop factor", which is influenced by the size of the camera sensor.

But in my experience that the lens does not have the result sharper FL  that in my opinion does ya hehe

2. Aperture / maximum aperture

Most lenses can write a maximum aperture of the lens used. For example, the kit lens / standard DSLR usually have a spec 18-55mm, f / 3.5 - 5.6. This specification means that the lens has a range of between 18mm to 55mm FL. In the FL 18mm, the lens has a maximum aperture of f / 3.5; in the FL 55mm lens has a maximum aperture of f / 5.6.

If a zoom lens has only one aperture numbers are written down, meaning the zoom lens has a maximum aperture the same, F / 3.5 indicates that a minimum aperture of the lens, the lens has a very small aperature the bokeh effect to any better.

3. Crop factor

As described above, the camera has a crop factor. For most brands of DSLR, there are only two types of cameras: fullframe (no crop factor, or crop factor 1x) and APS-C which has a 1.5x crop factor (Nikon, Sony, Pentax), or 1.6x (Canon). Fullframe cameras have a sensor size that is larger than the APS-C. Therefore, the lenses used would be different.

Fullframe lens produces images that are wider in the fields of sensors, while the APS-C lens produces images more narrow, and only enough to cover the field of APS-C sensor only. Therefore, fullframe lenses can be used on an APS-C camera, but the lens APS-C can not be used on fullframe cameras. If the APS-C lenses used in cameras fullframe, then the result will be vignetting (no black around the photo), because the lens only produce images in the central part of the fullframe sensor field. Not all lenses are suitable for your camera, consider the special lenses for camera 5D Mark III, does not fit mounted to the camera 1100 D if even then canon there is also nikon types are specified, the point if you buy a lens adjusted first to the needs in the camera your own whether compataible or not.

Lens crop factor of APS-C vs. This fullframe written as: EF-S vs EF (Canon), DX vs. FX (Nikon), Di II vs Di (Tamron), etc.

4. Silencer vibration

Some lenses have a vibration dampening mechanism. If we hold the camera by hand, the camera will inevitably sway, albeit slightly. In a slow shutter speed, wobble will be visible in the photo. This mechanism allows the lens elements to move against the direction of oscillation / vibration our hands, thus eliminating judder effect seen in the photo.

Most vibration dampening mechanism reduces vibration up to 2 stops, which means the rocking effect will be reduced so that it looks as if we are shooting with a 4x faster shutter speed (the same as the second stop). Lenses can we take the example of a football photographer if not wearing a monopod, photgrafer racing cars and others.

This mechanism is called the IS (Canon), VR (Nikon), VC (Tamron), OS (Sigma), OSS (Sony E), etc.

5. Motor / focusing mechanism

Many manufacturers of lenses use focusing mechanism different motors in their lenses. If a lens using a good mechanism, usually this will be included in the name of the lens. Good mechanism usually means the lens will be faster when autofocusing, and his voice was more subtle.

This mechanism is called the USM (Canon), SWM (Nikon), USD / PZD (Tamron), HSM (Sigma), SSM (Sony), and so on.

but also to adjust your camera, if you're a Canon 550 D camera and compared with canon 5D mark III is definitely more subtle canon 5D mark III hehehe. The point is to understand the theory and clay fact we have a camera like.

6. Internal focusing

The lens will typically rotates and extends / short while focusing. Internal focusing means the lens does not extend / short or rotating during focusing. This is useful when you use a filter that needs to be used with angle

Similarly, for example, GND or CPL that the photos you become more dramatic.

7. Rear focusing

The term means the rear focusing lens in the lens perform focusing by moving the rear element. This resulted in focusing becomes faster and smoother.

Until this point, virtually all important spec lenses that you already know. Subsequent terms only refer to the technology used in optical elements. The technology is very influential on the result of your photograph.

8. Aspherical element

Aspherical lens element indicates that the use of optical elements whose shape is not round. This reduces the effect of convex on the image, and also enables a more compact lens design and quality. Usually the lens above 1000 USD were like this.

9. Low Dispersion

Have you ever seen a purplish color (usually) on the edge of the bright areas / white in your photos? It is called color fringing or color aberration (CA). Low dispersion indicates that the lens has a CA that is less than a lens that does not have a low dispersion. The point is customized to the needs of each, sometimes human tastes different.

photography may be useful forward world!

How to set the ISO, aperture, shutter speed: EXPOSURE TRIANGLE

ISO, aperture, shutter speed: EXPOSURE TRIANGLE

The camera is a tool used to 'catch' the light through the sensor. Information from the light captured on the sensor and translated into an image. If the amount of light captured at the sensor is less, then the image will be too dark (underexposed / EU). Conversely, if the light is caught in the redundant sensor, the picture will be too bright (overexposed / OE).

There are three things that can be set in the camera to adjust exposure: shutter speed, aperture, and ISO. What is the role of each of these settings?

If the sensor is likened to a glass, and the light is water that will be loaded into the glass, then the exposure of the 'right' is the glass filled with water when fitted to the rim of the glass. If the water level does not reach the rim of the glass, the picture will be underexposed, and if the water is overflowing the overexposed image.

CONCEPT

1. Shutter speed

Shutter speed is the speed or length of the shutter open so that the light on the sensor. A adi, shutter speed can be likened to the length we open the tap to fill water. The longer the tap is opened, the more water that fills the glass. vice versa 

Shutter speed is measured in units of time, and the average DSLR camera can use a shutter speed of 1/4000 seconds to 30 seconds. Because the shutter speed is used mostly less than one second, it is usually written in the camera viewfinder is only fractions (shutter speed of 1/100 sec to be written) in the viewfinder. The units 'seconds' are usually written as a quotation mark ("), so the shutter speed of 2 seconds will be written as 2". Sometimes the unit is used in the second fraction, for example 0.6 ".

The bigger the number, the image will be darker. One stop multiplying factor is 2x, eg 1/100 shutter speed will be 1 EV brighter than the shutter speed of 1/200 if the scene and the other settings remain the same. That is if you use the manual mode with an automatic yes difference 

(EV is a unit of brightness, in which the difference between 1EV mean difference in brightness caused by different amount of light entering 2X. 1 EV is often called the first stop, the term is often said to Kamea ancient times 

2. Aperture

Aperture is the blades (usually made of metal) contained in the lens. These blades can move, intersect and cover the cross-section around the lens, so that only the central part of the lens that can pass light. Thus, the aperture can be likened to the pipe that channels water. Although both only opened for one second, for example, a large pipe will drain more water than the narrow pipe. Aperaturnya increasingly narrow the eye lens will focus to a single point, otherwise if it is high then catch aperature focus an object will be focused.

Unit aperture is the diameter aperture blades. Expressed in fractions, commonly written as f / X or 1 / X, where X is the numeric aperture. Is written in the camera viewfinder often only X number of its course.

A multiplying factor of the stop is √2 (square root), or trivial 1.4x; means aperture f / 3.5 will 1EV aperture brighter than f / 5.6. The bigger the number, the image will be darker.

3. ISO

ISO is the sensitivity of the sensor. The higher the ISO, the less light is needed to reach a certain brightness. Raise the ISO can be likened to enter the rock into a container so that the amount of water needed less and less.

ISO ISO is unit number. One stop multiplying factor is 2x, where 1EV ISO 800 will be brighter than ISO 400. For some iso professional camera can be up 50 to 12000.

EFFECTS ON THE PHOTO

In addition to regulating the brightness of images, each side of the triangle of exposure affects the final result of photos.

Long shutter speed that will allow the object or the camera moves over the light sensor, so that the image becomes blurry or so-called bokeh, partially or completely.

A large aperture (small aperture numbers) will produce a depth-of-field (depth of field) narrow, so that objects within not too far from the focus distance will start to blur. This could be a positive thing if you want to make bokeh, but it could be negative if we want to have a wide depth of field.

High ISO means the sensor more sensitive, and its effects cause noise in the image.

Thanks :)

How to prevent that you are not fooled when buying a camera

How to prevent that you are not fooled when buying a camera

All too often I hear stories of people who were disappointed after buying a DSLR camera, because it turns what is obtained is not in accordance with what is desired. Seller mode there are various; obviously in the form of fraud, and some use methods that "subtle" which technically / legally not classified as fraud, but still detrimental to the buyer.

In this article I will tell you some penjuali frequently used mode, so you do not become victims of predatory tigers out there.

Which is usually done by them usually is catching the attention or interest you. This can-usually done by offering cheaper price than the market price. Sometimes it dropped the price of the market.

Once you get caught attention, the next step is to change your interest. For example, you originally wanted to buy the Canon 5D Mark III, you will be offered a low price to buy Canon 5D Mark, but then they will try to sell a camera to another. This can be done with a variety of tricks: pretend to take stock of the Canon 5D Mark III and then you talk to "pending", or openly show other cameras, while they tried to find out how aware you about the camera.

Things that I often hear is:

o (If you are looking for Canon) Offers Canon "American version" or "Japanese version", under the pretext of their version better. No one really, Canon does have a special name for their products sold in the Americas (the Rebel series) and Japan (series Kiss). However, that does not mean a better product. And, obviously, this product is not an official distributor of the product, and therefore the guarantee is not possible official warranty.

o Offering brand cameras and other series, which is being touted as better than the camera you want to buy. Therefore, the price is also fitted more expensive. In fact, the camera is serial lower and cheaper. This method is usually supported by trying to take pictures with the camera and compare the two results. Just before the camera has been configured such that you seek a camera that looks ugly.

In addition, they also like to offer packaged with accessories, which are sold at a price much higher than the market price. Be careful, because you just spent millions to buy a camera, accessories costing hundreds of thousands could look cheap and you decide to buy. In fact, the price is much cheaper outside.

Prevention

So that you are not fooled, make sure of the following:

1. First and foremost, make sure you buy at the store are reliable. If the store has been reliable, 90% safe. I recommend the official outlet to let you later get a formal guarantee as well 

2. Understand the world's per-camera. Including alternatives of the camera you want. A shopkeeper may advise you to buy a D3100 D3200 instead, because he sincerely thought that the new series is always better. But, if you know the difference D3200 than D3100, you can decide for themselves to be sure which one is best for you. (Not that the shopkeeper was wrong, but the D3200 also more expensive: D) Think smart and a lot of reading / discussing it with your friends who know the types of cameras

3. Understand camera accessories, and alternatives. If you are offered a package of the camera + bag by adding 100ribu, do you take? Depending on whether the camera bag quality is quite good, is large enough for your needs (useless buy cheap now that 2 months also have to buy new because the old one is less bulky), whether they fit / comfort, etc. As well as filter and camera cleaning tools. Package is cheaper than buying a unit, but if the edges are not used the so redundant as well.

4. Understand the per-warranty's. Nikon is the official distributor Alta Nikindo, Canon is Datascript, Olympus is Occi. Learn the form of the warranty card that you want to buy a camera, so do not be fooled original warranty-and-false.
