candid is a photo taken without creating a freakish look. This is accomplished in many ways, for example:
- when the subject is moving,
- by avoiding previous preparations from the subject,
- with a surprising subject,
- by not switching the conversation during the photo shoot process.
Thus, an honest photo character is not related to the subject's knowledge about or approving the fact that the photo is being taken, and not related to the subject's permission for further use and distribution. Crucial factor is the absence of real poses. However, if the subject is completely unaware of being photographed and not even expecting it, then the photography is secret photography, which is a special case of candid photography.

As an art form
People who are generally regarded as the first "bright" photographer available are Dr. Erich Salomon photographed the social elite in Berlin, Germany and politicians and diplomats during the late 1920s and early 1930s with 1 3/4 x 2 1/4 glass plates or pieces, sheets, film cameras called Ermanox, equipped with Ernostar lens f/1.8. The Ermanox was introduced by Ernemann-Werke (Works) from Dresden, Germany, in 1924.
It is said by French Minister Colonel Aristide Briand, that "There are only three things necessary for the League of Nations conference: several Foreign Secretaries, a table and a Salomon". When looking at photos of Solomon, very different in the disclosure of traditional studio portraits or official group photographs, flash-powder illuminated, an English editor called them "candid photographs" a publicly attached phrase.
The most suitable camera for Solomon's approach, and later dubbed the "candid camera," was Leica, a camera designed by Oscar Barnack and introduced by Ernst Leitz's company in 1924 and who was the pioneer of all 35 mm cameras today.
Some professional photographers develop honest photography into the art form. Henri Cartier-Bresson may be considered a candid photography artist, capturing the "decisive moment" of everyday life for decades. Arthur Fellig, better known as Weegee, is one of the great photographers who documented life on the streets of New York to capture life - and death - at its crudest ends.
Almost all successful photographers in the field of candid photography master the art of making people relax and feel comfortable around the camera, they master the art of combining at parties, finding acceptance despite the obvious intrusive elements - the camera. How the subject reacts to the photographer's presence with the camera depends on how broad the artist's knowledge is on the craft, approach and implementation of the shot. This is certainly true for most celebrity photographers, such as Renà ©  © Burri, or Raeburn Flerlage.
It can be said that candid photography is the purest form of photojournalism. There is a fine line between photographic journalism and candid photography, a line obscured by photographers like Bresson and Weegee. Photo journalism often sets out to tell a story in the picture, whereas candid photography captures only people living in an event.

Camera equipment
Unobtrusive camera equipment, often in small sizes, is preferred for candid photography to avoid disturbing subjects. The black painted camera has long been favored.
Cand photography also typically requires the use of available light because flash signals the camera and can startle them, causing them to react or become self-conscious and display photos of their appearance rather than behave naturally. For this reason, early candid photography is done outdoors, where the sun provides plenty of light. Cand-candid photography requires the development of more sensitive films with higher film speed (ISO) and aggressive methods for developing film ("thrust processing") to improve sensitivity. Therefore, candid photography has historically been associated with a high-contrast, rough image generated from this technique. The introduction of digital cameras has made it easier to take pictures in low light conditions without flash. The full-frame DSLR camera has brought high ISO noise to low historical levels, allowing for clean and saturated images at speeds up to and beyond ISO 6400.
Although point and shoot cameras with affordable lenses have been used extensively for candid photography, the resulting photos can suffer from vignetting, distortion and color saturation. Because of the short reaction time for the photographer, exposure or focus may be slightly reduced. Because flash can not be used, images are often taken at low shutter speeds and show blurriness from subject movement, or camera shake. All of these errors are usually considered acceptable due to the limitation of candid photography.
Photographs of pilot films have been forced to use black and white, rather than color films due to the greater film speed. It has given candid photographs a distinctive appearance. The movie provides about 3 more stop dynamic range compared to previous digital cameras. However, better and smaller digital cameras provide photographers with increased dynamic range, greater speed and sharpness of the lens, enabling them to capture high-quality blank images.
