Cara Memotret Pemandangan/Objek Menggunakan Kamera Ponsel

Traveling adalah salah satu kegiatan yang sangat digemari anak muda. Biasanya anak muda melakukan hunting photo untuk persediaan upload di akun instagram mereka, mereka memilih tempat relatif murah dengan spot foto yang indah. Mereka juga relatif lebih sering menggunakan ponsel mereka daripada kamera dslr karena kamera ponsel lebih simpel dan mudah dibawa daripada kamera dslr. Nah kebetulan sekali saya adalah salah satu yang menggunakan kamera ponsel untuk mengabadikan momen traveling. Disini saya akan berbagi tips cara memotret pemandangan/objek menggunakan kamera ponsel. menurut saya ada 6 cara yang sangat membantu sekali dalam memotret menggunakan kamera ponsel, antara lain:

1. Membersihkan Lensa Kamera Ponsel

Pertama-tama, pastikan lensa kamera ponsel sobat traveler ada dalam keadaan bersih ya karena lensa kamera yang tidak bersih bisa membuat kualitas hasil foto menurun, sedangkan lensa yang bersih akan membuat cahaya masuk dengan bebas sehingga bisa menghasilkan foto yang tajam dan jelas. Oiya buat sobat traveler yang belum membersihkan lensa kamera ponselnya... sobat traveler bisa membersihkan lensa kamera dengan kain yang halus seperti kain-kain yang biasa digunakan untuk mengelap kacamata ya.

2. Hindari Backlight
backlight adalah kondisi ketika sumber cahaya berada dibelakang objek yang akan difoto. Nah sobat traveler harus menghindari ini karena hasilnya akan terlihat gelap, sebaiknya sobat traveler mencari pemandangan yang berada di depan cahaya. Tapi kondisi backlight tidak selamanya merugikan, backlight ini bisa digunakan saat sobat traveler menginginkan hasil siluet, misalnya siluet saat matahari terbit atau terbenam.

3. Mengatur Fokus 
Ketika sobat traveler memotret dengan objek tertentu selalu ingat untuk mengatur fokus gambar sebelum memotretnya, teman-teman. Kita bisa memanfaatkan fitur fokus dengan menekan kotak pada bagian tengah gambar sebelum memotret.

 
4. Pengaturan Komposisi
Pengaturan komposisi. Dengan aturan ini, sobat traveler akan membagi bingkai foto menjadi tiga bagian. Garis ini akan membantu kita memposisikan bagian yang penting dalam foto sobat traveler, dengan objek dipinggir maupun ditengah dipadukan dengan komposisi pemandangan alam lainnya.

 

5. Menghindari Fitur Zoom
Jika objek pemandangan yang ingin difoto berada di jarak yang tidak terlalu jauh, sebaiknya tidak menggunakan fitur zoom karena memperbesar gambar bisa berdampak pada menurunnya kualitas gambar dan membuat gambar menjadi pecah. Jika memang sobat traveler ingin memotret objek tersebut, lebih baik untuk mendekat ke objek.

6. Menghindari penggunaan Lampu Flash
Ketika akan memotret pemandangan, lebih baik sobat traveler tidak menggunakan lampu flash karena akan memengaruhi warna foto dan bisa membuat foto menjadi kabur. 
Jika memang sobat traveler memotret dalam keadaan gelap, disarankan untuk tidak menggunakan flash ini ya, karena penggunaan flash dalam memotret jarak jauh akan menghasilkan gambar dengan red eye. Lebih baik sobat traveler menggunakan cahaya dari lampu jalan atau lampu taman yang ada karena hasilnya akan terlihat lebih bagus dan terlihat aestetik.
