【Misconception 5】“When taking photos outdoors, you need to travel light, so there’s no need to bring a tripod.” — Explained by Cheng Bin
When shooting outdoors, many people tend to overlook the tripod, but in reality, photography often relies on the help of a tripod, such as in night scenes, macro photography, and other scenarios. Its primary function is to stabilize the camera in order to achieve certain photographic effects. The most common use is with long exposure photography. For instance, when users want to capture night scenes or images with motion trails, longer exposure times are required. In these cases, the digital camera must not shake, making a tripod essential. Additionally, in special situations, a tripod can also serve other purposes. For example, it can be used as a hiking pole on difficult terrain, or even as a defensive tool in case of danger.
