◆ What are the tips to take a good picture of a bicycle?

Nojima: Do you have any tricks to take a beautiful and beautiful bicycle? Tanabe: When taking a bicycle alone, I am careful to take a picture of the bicycle with a consciousness of "where you feel cool." The bicycle has a crank on the drive side, and the opposite side is a non -live side, and the bicycle has a front and back, so turn the front side (the one to take) as a major premise. To be detailed, the position and angle of the crank look beautiful. Also, I am conscious of the bicycle riding people. Nojima: Not only shooting, but you are riding a bicycle, so you may have more consciousness. Is there anything you keep in mind when taking a picture of the race? Tanabe: (when I was working at the bicycle shop "Blue Lug"), I took a picture of a product, so it developed to take a race, but what is good is a racer. The expression and the thoughts are very expressed in the expression. That's very cool, and it's a part that can't be conveyed in photos and videos, but when I go to the site, I really feel the power. I always keep in mind that I can take a picture of a little bit that people who can't go to the site can feel like a feeling of air. Nojima: There is a place like sensitivity. Tanabe: That's right. It's difficult, but I think the photos are art that can only be expressed because they are still images. Can you imagine various things from one picture? For the viewer, I think it's a wonderful art format that thinks about what is happening there and what kind of enthusiasm is, so I always think that it would be nice to be able to express it well. It's an endless goal (laughs). Nojima: That's right. After all, I'm enjoying the race itself, so I want to convey this moment! Tanabe: I think the perspective of the doing side is big. Nojima: By the way, what are the main cameras used when taking a race? Tanabe: Sony's mirrorless single -lens reflex camera is the main thing now. Nojima: Is that so!? Mirrorless SLR is suitable for sports? Tanabe: I wasn't very suitable until a few years ago, and I've been using Canon's camera all the time, but since I had Sony's mirrorless, I heard that the performance was very good, so I like new things. It's really good to try it. As the performance (performance) improved year by year, it was finished to a level that was completely unreasonable, so I wanted to try new things more and more, so I felt like I switched to Sony. 。 Nojima: What kind of lens do you use? Tanabe: I use a so -called genuine lens made of Sony, and I have several standard zoom lenses, telephoto lenses, and single focus lenses. Nojima: Isn't it hard to switch lenses when racing? Tanabe: It's quite difficult to switch, so there are about two or three photographers in the race. When I was in a race, I also had two basics, and I changed it with a single focus lens with a telephoto lens, a single focus lens so that I could take a wide -angle atmosphere. Nojima: I see. With telephoto zoom and wide -angle zoom. Tanabe: To cover both. It's a race, so if you miss it for a moment, it's over. Nojima: That's right. Tanabe: I think it's a tension and I think it's a numb job, but there are absolutely a moment when I can't escape, so it's not insurance like that, but I'm trying to cover it. Nojima: I try to shoot the players after the race with a single focus, and take a picture so that the atmosphere comes out. Tanabe: That's right, because I really like that kind of figure. The face of the player after all of it has a very good face. It's not during the race, there are customers, there are racing organizers, and there are people who support them, so it's one race and culture, so I wish I could show that area. Nojima: Yes. Tanabe: That's why I'm busy with many things I want to shoot on site (bitter smile). Nojima: Do you take a pretty number of sheets? Tanabe: I'm going to take a lot. So it's really hard to manage. Nojima: Isn't it difficult to decide which photo to use after the race? Tanabe: I feel like which photo to use, but I remember it when I took it. Nojima: That's right! Tanabe: This photo has a feeling of "Kita!" That's why I remember it because I remember it (when I took it), so I picked it up. Nojima: Hey! Tanabe: Everything I took is backed up, so when I make a photo book at a later date, I will review it again. (Over time), the sensation changes again, or even if you take a picture, there are some things that look very good when you look back later, so it feels like you've done it with what you thought was good when you took it. Nojima: Deep deep! It's interesting. ("Cyclist Station Tour of Japan" from Sunday, February 13, 2022)
