Top 10 Photography Tips and Tricks

“Skill in photography is acquired by practice and not by purchase” – Percy W Harris.

Photography can never be learned thoroughly; it comes by practice and perseverance. As one starts capturing images learning and unlearning happen daily. But some basic rules mustn’t be forgotten.

1. Rule of Thirds:

As the name suggests, the frame is divided into three equal parts horizontally and vertically. The intersection points of each square grid are essential to place the elements on those lines. This will help in a visual appeal and enhance the photograph.

2. Exposure Triangle:

ISO, Shutter Speed, and Aperture make up the exposure triangle in photography. A balanced triangle will give a more appealing image and sharp photographs. The ISO controls the camera’s sensitivity to light. Shutter speed controls the time for which the lenses shutter will be open while clicking a photo. Aperture controls the amount of light entering the camera lens.

3. White Balance:

To capture clear and accurate photos, the camera’s white balance should be adjusted. It is done according to the light being used to click pictures. Automatic white balance (AWB), Fluorescent, Tungsten, Daylight, Cloudy, Flash, Shade is the most commonly used white balance settings.

4. The Golden Ratio:

The focus is more on the centre according to this ratio. It is a ratio of approximately 1.618 to 1. It has been used for centuries by architects artists and can be found naturally in our surroundings.

5. Leading Lines:

These lines appear in a photograph showing the viewers’ attention from one part of the photograph to the other. The leading lines direct the viewers’ eyes to the main subject of the composition.

6. Depth of Field:

In photography, the depth of field (DOF) is the distance between the nearest object in the foreground and the farthest object in the background. A shallow or a deep depth of field can significantly impact a photograph.

7. Avoid Camera Shake:

Avoiding pictures looking blurred is the most essential and fundamental aspect of photography. To make sure the photograph is sharp and clear, one’s hands must be steady at all times. Using a tripod stand is also a great way to click clear images.

8. Shoot in RAW:

Starting to shoot in RAW will give higher resolution photos and let one have more control in post-production. The RAW format will not compress the images.

9. Understand Perspectives:

Try and click a photo from different angles to give it perspectives. The more you click from various angles, the more perspective you will get in a single photograph.

10. Avoid Flash Indoors:

Using flash indoors can make the photo look unnatural and harsh. One can use a higher ISO to replace flash, select the required shutter speed, and use the widest aperture.

MediaTek announced Dimensity 8000 and Dimensity 8100 chipsets

The Taiwanese chipset company, MediaTek, had announced their 2022 flagship processor, Dimensity 9000. The processor aims at the upper end of the mid-range smartphones. Now, they have announced the launch of two new 5G smartphone chipsets, Dimensity 8000 and 8100.

Dimensity 8000

The MediaTek Dimensity 8000 features an octa-core CPU, inclusive of 4 Arm Cortex-A78 cores clocked at as much as 2.75GHz and 4 Arm Cortex-A55 cores clocked at as much as 2.0GHz. The SoC packs an Arm Mali-G610 MC6 GPU for gaming and graphics-extensive tasks.

The GPU can force an FHD+ show at a full refresh charge of 168Hz and aid for 4K AV1 media decoding. The Dimensity 8000 uses the Imagiq 780 ISP for imaging, which assists in simultaneous twin digital digicam HDR video recording, 200MP digital digicam aid, AI-Motion unblurs AI-NR/HDR photos, and 2x lossless zoom.

Dimensity 8100

The MediaTek Dimensity 8100 is a minor step up from the Dimensity 8000. It additionally functions as an octa-middle CPU providing 4 Arm Cortex-A78 cores and 4 Arm Cortex-A55 cores. However, the Cortex-A78 overall performance cores at the Dimensity 8100 can accelerate to 2.85GHz.

The octa-middle CPU is paired with the identical Mali-G610 MC6 GPU. MediaTek claims that the Dimensity 8100 improves gaming overall performance with 20% extra GPU frequency over the Dimensity 8000 and over 25-tier CPU power-performance over preceding Dimensity chips.

The Dimensity 8100 additionally functions the identical Imagiq 780 ISP, which gives simultaneous twin digital digicam HDR video recording, 200MP digital digicam support, 4K60 HDR10+ video capture, AI-Motion

unblur, AI-NR/HDR photos, and 2X lossless zoom.

Specifications:

CPU: Dimensity 8000 will be 4x Arm Cortex-A78 @ up to 2.75GHz and 4x Arm Cortex-A55 @ up to 2.0GHz. Whereas Dimensiy 8100 will be 4x Arm Cortex-A78 @ up to 2.85GHz and 4x Arm Cortex-A55 @ up to 2.0GHz
Display: Dimensity 8000 chipsets will display Maximum On-Device Display support: FHD+ @168Hz and its counterpart 8100 will be Maximum On-Device Display support: FHD+ @ 168Hz / WQHD+ @ 120Hz.
AI: Dimensity 8000 and 8100 will have 5th Gen APU 580.
Connectivity: Bluetooth 5.3, Bluetooth LE Audio Technology with Dual-Link True Wireless Stereo Audio, and WiFi 6E 2×2 are connection modes.
Camera: Dimensity 8000 and 8100 will be shipped with 200 megapixels camera, but the onus of providing the feature lies with the manufacturers. Along with this, the chipsets will also allow a 4K video recording feature.
Internet: Faster internet speeds will be provided, and the smartphones will have dual 5G standby support.
Manufacturing Process: 5nm production process by TSMC are used to build the chipsets.

Differences:

Dimensity 8100 enjoys slightly higher performance cores at a speed of 2.85GHz than Dimensity 8000 at performance cores of 8.75Ghz.
A higher screen resolution of FHD+ @ 168Hz / WQHD+ @ 120Hz is available in the Dimensity 8100; on the other hand, Dimenity 8000 has only FHD+ @168Hz.

Rest all the specifications and hardware are similar in the newly launched Dimensity 8100 and 8000.
