2021 quietly passed, in fact, a while ago I wanted to review what I did in the hobby of photography this year, and share my experience with you, helpless procrastination is too serious, this blink of an eye is in the middle and late January, and then do not write can be renamed "2022" photography summary.
Let's take a look at my collection of photographic equipment first, and then slowly share with you the photos that I think are relatively reasonable this year.
In April 2021, I acquired the Sony A7M3 full-frame micro single camera for 11100 from a local Sony authorized dealer. Did not think that this machine has become my best financial digital products at the end of the year, now go to Jingdong to see the price, good guys 13599 did not reduce the price to rise to more than 2K ah, this is simply I went! At that time, I was still struggling with whether waiting for the A7M4 to release the A7M3 would reduce the price, and it turned out that I really thought too much!
Sony Alpha 7 III body (a7M3/A73/ILCE-7M3) full-frame micro single digital camera (approx. 24.2 million effective pixels 5-axis image stabilization) ¥13599 Purchase
As for why I bought this camera, it was because of a colleague of mine, he told me that he was going to buy a camera, budget 1W, let me staff staff, as a result of my research I have in my hands of the D90 has been too outdated, can not meet my current needs, the result is that I bought a camera, my colleague did not buy he took my D90 away to play. Then I got my hands on the Sigma 24-70 F2.8 lens with the machine, and you know why you didn't buy Sony's 2470!
The price of Sigma's lens is still relatively stable, the imaging is also good, and some gray in front of the price can also pretend not to see, but the production batch of my lens according to the dealer has been improved, and there will be no slag inside. Anyway, I'm a rough person, and I didn't see if there was ash in it, so I didn't worry about it.
Then there is the big telephoto lens in the photo, every old mage has a telephoto dream, I am no exception, comprehensive consideration finally started the Sony 200-600 telephoto lens, to be honest this year the number of times used is limited, but do not buy it always think, even if you use a day a year, you have to buy, but also because of this lens, took a photo that I think is the best of the year!
Nonsense is not much to say, on the photo ah, the end of the year of photography does not come to some photos, then I must not be smashed by friends with rotten eggs ah?
First on the camera
This is the photo I feel most satisfied with this year, "Tangshan version of the hanging sun"
Hanging sun, the word first came from the "Manhattan Hanging Sun" in New York, the term Manhattanhenge was first used by the Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson of the American Museum of Natural History in 2002, because the streets of Manhattan are mostly checkerboarded, and on May 28 and July 12 (or 13) every year, the sun will sprinkle all the east-west streets of Manhattan at sunset. Present a spectacular sight.
Every year on the day of the spring equinox and autumn equinox, the sun will rise from the east and set in the west, and many cities in our country will have east-west streets, at this time if you have a telephoto lens, then you can find a suitable camera position and take a photo of the hanging sun.
To say that when I took this photo was September 22, the day before the autumn equinox, when the weather was good, the sunset time was at 17:58, and that day my car was limited, I struggled for half a day, ran out of the unit in advance, took a colleague's car home to get the camera, and swept a shared bicycle, ran all the way to the overpass, supported the tripod, pressed the shutter, the parameters were not too perfect, fortunately, the tolerance of A7M3 was good, and the curve was pulled down later, which was saved.
Then on September 23, the day of the autumn equinox, the morning sky is clear, close to the sun setting, the west comes to the clouds, the shooting plan falls short, it can be said that there is only the spring equinox every year, a few seconds in the days before and after the autumn equinox is the best shooting window, but also pray for the weather to give strength, so it is really not easy to take this photo! Sony 200-600 lenses are not bought in vain!
After only a few seconds, the sun will continue to set and drill into Tangshan Station...
Below is the distance between the camera point and the foreground Tangshan Station marked on the map, 5.6 kilometers, many people have asked, why the sun is so big, it is because there is a foreground background, and the distance between the camera position and the foreground is long enough!
For example, if you want to shoot with your mobile phone or see the above photo with the naked eye, the effect is like the following picture
The camera is used to record life, the moment you press the shutter, freeze-frame memory!
I still prefer to use the telephoto, which was taken during the total lunar eclipse on May 26, find a suitable foreground, and the moon will appear very large with a telephoto lens!
The picture below is Tangshan's retired and discontinued Tang Steel, which has been relocated and discontinued, and it is also my former work unit, hoping that it will continue to be brilliant like the sunrise in the new factory site!
And a round of crescent moon
Still in a telephoto lens, the black swan plays with the little swan.
This is 24-70 shot shot, followed by a photo of Huawei's offline activities, Huawei sister leaned on the wall to see the photos I took, the corners of the mouth rose, beautiful! In fact, I would like to take more portraits, suffering from the lack of suitable models, I understand how to master the traffic password, but I can't use this traffic password!
The zoo records the animals' wonderful moments with 2-600, but it is really tiring to hold 2-600 shots in the zoo in the summer.
We can do it at the hair level! But do you count it?
I don't know what kind of parrot it is, anyway, the family must not let you raise it!
Remember to wipe your mouth when eating
The old mage's dream, counting hairs, really clear ahaha!
The little sparrow caught a bug!
I also took a lot of product makeup photos with the Sigma 24-70 lens, such as the Apple speaker that just caught up with the essay reward I received from my big mom on my birthday!
I like the handmade ~
Good looking phone! There are still many product photos, I feel that now the shooting product to the bottleneck period, or not good enough, need to look at more photos taken by other friends, find a feeling is good!
And because of the improvement of the environment, a magpie duck came to the river near my house
。
I haven't trained the Unicorn Arm yet, so I can only pat the stupid bird that can't move!
A little cry hidden in the sunset, I know someone must ask how to read these two words? Fart, read this sound!
Red Big Ant!
Little lotus only showed sharp horns, there were dragonflies standing on the head, but unfortunately this one did not have a dragonfly, and this year must squat a dragonfly!
The photos taken on the mobile phone this time, because this year's mobile phone was changed from the iPhone 12 Pro Max to the 13 Pro Max, and it took a few days to arrange a plus 9RT for the daughter-in-law, so it will be a bit miscellaneous, and everyone will make up to see.
In fact, in daily life, I can't carry the camera anytime and anywhere, and then the mobile phone becomes the strongest productivity!
iPhone 12 Pro Max
Or a bunch of little ones!
Looking at the world from another perspective, I shared this photo in the SMZDM Tangshan Chopping Friends Group, friends said that it seems to be a UFO in reverse, and the reflected trees and houses, the blurring effect formed by water ripples, is distorted by the UFO just now!
So record the beautiful moments around you, because every moment is unique! Fleeting!
The beautiful sky brought by the thunderstorm in an instant!
iPhone13 Pro Max
Before leaving work in the unit parking lot, looking up at the moon, looking for a street lamp for the foreground, when the shutter was pressed, there were dragonflies flying by! The next two shots are all zoomed, so it's not very clear!
The moon is about to fall in!

In the corner of the desk, the dust under the sunset — it seems that the minion is urging me to wipe the table!
A friend gave a can of clams, a touch of sunlight shining, and there were also insects chirping in winter. Winter afternoon ~ the sun shines in, warm!
OnePlus 9RT also supports DOL-HDR, professional movie mode, 100 million super pixel algorithm and other modes to make images more playable. Casually take a picture of the sense of déjà vu, send a circle of friends everyone praises the color is beautiful!
Then because I would shoot some digital products, I sometimes needed that cyberpunk feeling of lighting, so I also got AYSon's RGB Pocket Light fill light
For example, this color product is not very dazzling~
Compact and portable, this fill light is 360° full-color adjustable, with 12 creative light effects that can adjust different color temperatures and brightnesses. CRI up to 96+ high color rendering, high texture. TCLI index 97+, 12W of ultra-bright power through the built-in 3200mAh lithium battery endurance of up to 3 hours, but also through the charging treasure and other external power supply while charging at the same time. LED display can easily display brightness, battery level and other indexes, physical button operation is convenient and intuitive.
It has two 1/4 connection ports for easy connection to devices such as tripods, mobile phones or cameras. Easy to expand!
And the Tai Xun portable octopus tripod that assisted me in shooting from a more tricky angle.
Tai Xun Portable Octopus Tripod Mobile Phone Stand Universal Octopus Gopro Action Camera Handheld Stabilizer Octopus Outdoor Micro SLR Shooting Live Vlog Selfie Artifact ¥48 Purchase
The self-weight of this tripod is only 300g, but this small gimbal bears a load of 2.5KG, and the mobile phone and camera calculate the weight, which is still very practical!
There are also additional interfaces, making it easy to expand other accessories.
After pulling it open, it can also be turned into a mobile phone stand, which can be fixed in some special camera positions, record the shooting process with the mobile phone or record the time-lapse photography of special angles with the mobile phone!
More stable than the traditional desktop tripod, it is not easy to fall! It can also be combined with different adapter accessories to support fixed action cameras, etc.
In order to shoot the video, I also bought Smog's rabbit cage, the scalability has nothing to say, you can buy all kinds of accessories, just afraid of the wallet it does not agree!
SmallRig Smogg A7M3 rabbit cage a73 a7r3 Sony camera expansion accessories 2087 ¥639 purchase
The memory card is 128G of Lexa, the dual card is also enough, the cost performance is very high, read 160MB/s, write 120MB/s.
Write at the end
Photography is a hobby of burning money, and it is possible that the money spent did not take a few satisfactory photos, photos of this thing you think are good-looking, others may feel unremarkable, but people always have some of their own hobbies, to learn to be good at finding beauty, when taking photos to find more different angles, after all, there will be a day to take photos that are recognized by others!
