Differences in usage between 撮る{とる} and 写す{うつす}、写る｛うつる} ?




More context would be helpful.

For starters, the last two are action verbs: 写す (transitive "to photograph")
and 写る (intransitive "to be photographed"), so I would suggest looking into
the differences between those type of verbs. Quick example:

写真を写す to take a picture この写真はとてもよく写っている. This photo came out very well (read:
well photographed).

As for the difference between 撮る and 写す, they both can be used to express the
same thing (take a photograph), but unlike 撮る, 写す can be also used in
different context (copy, reproduce)
