Photography, taught one frame at a time.

Pixelz is a free tutorial site for people who are new to photography and want to understand it properly rather than collect settings. Nine topics cover exposure, composition, lighting, camera settings and lenses, plus the subject areas most beginners care about: portrait, landscape, night photography and post-processing. Every tutorial explains the principle behind a technique, illustrates it with a diagram, and ends with settings you can try on your next shoot, so you are not left guessing what to do with the idea.

Nothing here assumes expensive equipment. A kit lens, a single cheap prime, or the phone in your pocket is enough to follow almost every lesson, and where gear does change the outcome we say so and explain how.

All of it is published in both English and Chinese, and the two versions are written separately rather than translated, so each reads naturally in its own language. Choose a language below to start reading. If you are not sure where to begin, start with the topic where your own photographs disappoint you most; for most beginners that is exposure or composition, and both are covered from first principles.

Pixelz 是一个免费的摄影入门教程站，写给刚拿起相机、想真正搞懂原理而不是收集参数的新手。九个主题覆盖曝光、构图、用光、相机设置与镜头，再加上新手最关心的几类题材：人像、风光、夜景和后期。每篇教程都先讲清方法背后的道理，配一张示意图，最后给出下次外拍可以直接照着试的参数。

这里不假设你有昂贵的器材。套机镜头、一支便宜的定焦，或者你口袋里的手机，就足以跟着练完几乎每一篇；确实需要器材的地方，我们会说明它改变了什么。

全部内容提供英文与中文两个版本，两边分别独立撰写，不是互译。选一个语言开始读。如果不知道从哪儿入手，就从最让你受挫的那类题材开始——多数人是曝光或构图，这两块都从最基础的原理讲起。
