Here is a trick I learned for making a fence disappear in zoo photography. Using aperture priority, set the lowest f-stop, focus on the animal, if there is enough distance between the animal and the fence, the fence is so out of focus it literally disappears from the image.

No matter what mode you're in you can get the same visual effect by controlling just one parameter. To get a preferred shutter either adjust iso or aperture or vice versa. And in manual you control all parameters....so just shoot manual and take control of your camera. Simplicity.

Very true.....

I wish my daughter would have had you as a teacher in her high school photo class - she was so excited going into it and we bought her a brand new nikon 3400 DSLR. But then by the end of the semester she had lost all interest in it - she said the teacher was rude and snappy when you asked a question and gave the most boring assignments - she was literally taking pictures of different hardware I had laying around in my garage. Listening to you it seems so simple and i know the high school could use someone like you - photography is naturally exciting and you make it seem so. Thanks for all the great tips! I have gotten her to pick up her camera again and she seemed pretty pleased with some of the shots she took of our German Shepherd at the beach so hopefully she’ll become more interested in it again - it’s something her and I can do together so for me its a huge plus - well done sir I appreciate what you’re doing - absolute gold

I've been shooting photography for more years than I like to admit. That being said, I like to see how other people present the basics to the trade. You did a great job making it as simplistic and understandable as possible to the new comer. Nice job and great video.

This video was absolutely great. You explained aperture and F-stop better than anyone I've heard yet. So thoroughly and clear.

Hi, In just the short time I have watched this video, I feel this is has been very helpful to a relative beginner of photography such as myself. Cheers, keep up the good work!

I love how you transitioned into explaining the Shutter Priority mode and there are people moving in the background! Gives the watchers a glimpse of what is it about. This vid is very helpful even though I’m an amateur shooting for 3 yrs already! I’m still learning things I didn’t know before

Thank you Thank you Thank you. Finally someone who addressed what I was looking for. Today was my lucky day, that I bumped into this video. Shared it with a lot of my contacts.

Love the up front value! Best of luck with your course, you're a real pro! I've been shooting for over 20 years, love my D1X old school. Your videos have inspired me to shoot more creatively and maybe buy a new camera. Thank you 🙏

D1x has one disatvantage (from my point of view of D2x user for over a decade) once you get used to PRO gear, it is hard to step down :D For me it was from D2x to D800 - everything is better in new generations but the feeling, battery life, controls etc - it is not there ;) If you gonna go for new (used) camera, think about this too ;)

Had a Minolta 7000 back in the 80's. I loved P mode and Program Shift. The interplay between speed and aperture was so obvious. Thanks Minolta.

Thank you Mark it took forever to find a straight forward simple way of getting out of automatic mode. Now I’m taking incredible pictures without fretting over settings. 😊👍🏻

I know this is a beginner video, but one thing to keep in mind too when talking about aperture is also subject distance in relation to the background too, which will affect blur (there are other factors too). If you're subject is standing right against a brick wall, for example, and you shoot at f/2.8 chances are the brick wall will be slightly out of focus (again, depending on other factors too) but not completely out of focus, whereas if you're subject is standing 10 ft in front of the brick wall, the brick wall may be more out of focus at f/2.8 (it's the subject-background distance factor to consider). Again, goes a bit beyond this video but just because you're shooting at 2.8 for example, doesn't always mean your background will be completely out of focus like you see in some pictures where people brag they shot it at f/2.8 and the bokeh (background blur) is creamy. But this is a good explanation (in the video) for beginners. Just as a rule, the farther your subject is from the background, the more blurred the background will be when your f-stops are lower (like f/2.8 or f/4).

Of all the videos I have watching thus far, this one explains things in a language I can finally understand. Thank you!

My (now quite old!) Fuji XE1 has been a joy to use and re-learn the basics of photography. I use it with manual lenses now and you get the instant effect of aperture and speed on my photos. As a teenager, I would keep a notebook and take note of settings and corresponding frame numbers.. tough old days! Recommend experimenting and making mistakes -especially without the expense of film.

I mostly use aperture mode, that's what I learned when I was young and used analog cameras. I've used shutter mode a few times when shooting running water and waves,

Mark, since taking your Photography Pro course a few months back, I haven't used my auto mode except for videos. Great advice and direction. Thank you.

This video completely changed the way I use my camera off the auto mode. Thank you for a simple way of explaining how to take pictures the way it should be taken. I have ordered your videos and advise all to take Mark’s courses. Worth the investment guys!

I grew up using 35mm film cameras that were fully manual like the Pentax K1000 (Brick). I read books on depth of field and that was a good explanation. Also your description of shutter speeds was spot on. Don't forget to pan with your subject at lower shutter speeds.

Finally a practical video about the two most important auto modes. This video speaks to the main topic I teach to anyone who asks for help. In fact, I don't even begin to teach them until they have a clear understanding as to how these two modes work on their specific camera. Now I can just point them to your video and I won't have to train them anymore. Woohoo! Thanks for a quite concise treatise of a very important camera use topic.

So nicely presented, Thanks a lot Mark. I forwarded this video to my friend and after years of using only Auto mode now she has gained the confidence to use the aperture and other buttons!!!

Best video I've seen so far that explains the 2 different shooting modes in a clear, simple-to-understand way! Thanks!!

Great explanation. Easy to understand for someone who knows nothing about photography like me.

Your videos have been of great help since I discovered you 3 days ago. Your explanations are simple to understand. I am officially out of the Auto mode and now on Aperture and Shutter modes. My car photography has tremendously improved. I would love to learn how to take stunning car photos for adverts. Thank you Mr. Hemmings. Kind regards, Ken from Kenya.

Glad I found your channel. Just getting back into photography after about a 25 year break. Still have my old OM10 but have now bought a Nikon D3400. Added a 55-200 lens. Have to admit that I’m very rusty and really new to digital, still finding my way around it. Your videos have reminded me of what I used to do. The information has been very useful. Ended up digging out the OM10 and finding it was basically AP. Now using the Nikon in AP mode. No more auto! Shooting in raw/jpg so that I can play around with editing. Cheers 😁

The comparison shots are very instructive. I think it would help a little more if you also compared (for example) those 3 shots of different shutter speeds to what one would get with just the AUTO mode. Thus illustrating why you want to use other than AUTO.

This guy is amazing 😍

I do a lot of macro and wildlife photography and mostly use Aperture priority. I usually take photos at ISO 800 but drop this down when conditions require it. For macro, especially with insects which have antennae, take a series of photos, each focussed on a different part of the body, and stack the photos together to give you an in-focus image.

Your videos have help me a lot. Any plan to talk about how to use filters and their effects?

I've been searching for a plain, simple and beginner-friendly tutorial. This is a big help. Thanks

For 30 years, I shot over 500 weddings with a battery free Hasselblad that only shot in manual. I also shot live-action hockey in manual for 10 years. It’s not that complicated if you take the time to learn how. I tell the camera what to do.

I was more adventurous when I first bought my Canon 5X500 about 8 years ago; I've been on Auto since then. No more! Thank you!

I have been a photographer since the late 60s. I use aperture priority for ACTION photography.

Then you are doing it wrong technically speaking you should use TV for action photography since the shutter speed is the main thing you want But I understand you are used to working like this and know what AV value will give you the best shutter speed... but for people who are beginning... you should use TV mode for action photography

@@maartenvandenberg160 Technically, I'm getting the highest shutter speed I can for my shooting situation. Using TV (or SP in Nikon-speak) I could run into not enough aperture for the chosen speed.

I'm an aviation photographer and I've only ever used Aperture Priority and Manual. I've never used anything else on my D3400. Aperture priority is what I use 99% of the time. The other 1% is manual. I imagine I'd use shutter priority for some stuff at airshows.

Oh man. It takes 20 min to learn how manual mode works. How dumb can anyone be

The setting I use most when shooting a stage event is aperture priority in conjunction with exposure compensation.

Really great one and so helpful. While I was so confused for fujifilm even with fujinon xf 56 lens. Appreciate it hoping to get more videos!

Camera Users' manuals cover all this in the opening chapters. Aperture priority is the most important. Find a lab test of your lens and see what F stop yields the sharpest image. On most lenses, F/8 or F/11 yields the highest resolution and freedom from aberrations. I never rely on auto focus. Rather, I use depth of field tables for outdoor photography, where maximum sharpness is required from foreground to infinity. Street photographers have camera set before the subject appears, so they lose no time making adjustments. Better to capture the 'decisive moment' than let it slip away fumbling with knobs. On digital cameras, a good rule for quick capture is to set aperture to F/16 and shutter at 1/500th with ISO at 400-500 in bright sunlight. These tips have worked well for me in 80+ years behind the camera. I shoot both film and digital and find I concentrate more on film and, therefore, get better results. But it may just be a lifetime with film cameras is ingrained in me.

I've noticed that the majority of people I've watched on KZread suggest that using Aperture Priority be used even more than that of Manual. I think it's because it reduces the time to compose the image and not have to mess around too much with the other dials on our DSLR.

Thank you for this lesson, it really helped me with my Cannon !

I appreciate your effort you put in these videos for teaching us. Thanks alot.
