    Here's a little summary from the video- this is esentially a copy-paste from the notes I took while watching :) 1) Take Control Over Photo Brightness With Exposure Composition - Bright lighting = cheerful, dark lighting = moody - Press plus to increase brightness, minus to decrease - (On a Canon, “P” represents “Program” mode) - Press the “q” button in the back to access exposure composition 2) Use ISO To Supercharge Your Low-Light Photography - Is a scale from 100-3200 - Represents the camera’s ability to absorb light (higher ISO = more sensitive) - Also works with how well your camera responds to movement (in dark areas, mostly) lower ISO will create blurry photos and a higher ISO results in sharper pictures - However, there is a trade off. Higher ISO creates reduced quality - Change the ISO by using a scroller on the top? 3) Use Aperture Priority to Blur the Background - How “soft” or “hard” the background is - Switch top mode dial to “AV” - If you have a zoom lense, make sure you zoom it in - A large aperture opening gives you a lot of background blur, whereas a small aperture opening gives you only a little background blur - Aperture is measured in f-stop - To get background blur, you should choose your lenses lowest f-stop 4) Use F8 Aperture to get the Best Overall Image Quality - Gives a lot of focus, especially useful for photographing groups of people at all distances - Use when there’s more than one person in a photo 5) Capture Sharp Landscapes Using the Highest F-Stop Number - You may need to use a tripod in order to prevent blurry photos 6) Use Shutter Priority for Stunning Photos of Moving Water - A fast shutter speed freezes fast-moving objects - A slow shutter speed makes fast moving objects blurry - Set your top dial to “TV” - For this type of photo, you should have a tripod or at least a stable platform like a chair - This type of photography works best in the early morning or late evening - Make sure your ISO is the lowest possible for slow shutter speed, and highest for fast shutter speed (and vice versa)

    It would be useful to let people know when discussing Av mode that the bokeh (background blur) you're going to get depends on your lens' aperture capability. This is especially true with zoom lenses, which, unless they are higher end, tend to get narrower the further down the barrel you go- ie. the more you zoom in. A lens with a max aperture of f/4, for example, is not going to give you a blurred background in portraits without some more intermediate to advanced photography skill. Even a f/2.8-4.5 zoom lens, for example, 24-70mm, is only going to stay at that f/2.8 up through about 35mm, narrowing the more you zoom in. If people don't know this, they will drive themselves nuts trying to figure out why they're not getting the creamy bokeh they see in magazine photos, even with high price point cameras.

    Bluring background is just shooting at a shallower depth of field and focusing on the subject only. When you zoom into longer focal lengths, the depth of field also decreases so you do not need a f2.8 or wider aperture to get a narrow depth of field even F5.6 would be enough if you move further back and shoot at 85mm or 135mm or 250mm. You can also have a good bokeh by just adding a "2-field filter lens" (I paid $5 used) or use plastic film to up cover part of the lens except the subject or use background bluring software in post processing.

    This is a big problem though. His method uses program mode and tells you to bump up the ISO to reduce motion blur. There's just so many bad practices here for new photographers! Please go watch some more videos about exposure control before trying to practice what this person is telling you. These Lego photography tutorials should straighten you out on what settings do what even if it doesn't teach you exactly how to control those settings on your camera. It's a great place to start learning the exposure triangle. kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z2V_pc-Od5bToaQ.html kzread.info/dash/bejne/ioyOlaVwoMndc7Q.html kzread.info/dash/bejne/lGup3LR9YdbFdLA.html

Haters are gonna hate, especially the ones that don't have what it takes to put their own how-to together so they take out their frustration of being incompetent on others who are better than them (like this guy and this video).

I've been in the photography field for 12 years, and I'm not the kind of person to shut someone else's point of view out. For the critics... when you eat chicken and find a bone, you just discard the bone and keep on eating. You don't throw the whole chicken away. What kind of mentality is that?

    I think the problem is about the title of the video. This type of fail is typical when you don't master the art of clickbait. Writing an incitative title is not clickbait, it's just smart. However, don't overpromise and underdeliver. This is the case here. If title was something like "Basic tips to get out of auto mode", I don't think hateful comments would flow as much. Don't overpromise and underdeliver. Be always on point with the intent of the targeted audience.

  • @melbahrami3389

    Dear Nastia; In order to create shallow depths of field, you need very large apertures represented by the smaller F numbers on the aperture ring of the lens. The maximum aperture of your lens when fully zoomed is F6.3; way too small an aperture for this purpose. Don't despair though! You can still create good out of focused-background pictures using your existing lens. Assuming that the shortest focal length of your zoom lens is around 75mm, set it at its shortest length (do not zoom), stop the aperture ring at its smallest number, set the exposure dial on your camera at A (Aperture Priority Auto) and ISO at 100 (on a sunny day) or Auto, get as close to your subject as the minimum focussing distance of your lens allows, compose, hold your breath and take the exposure. The background will be rendered blurred!

    When shooting longer exposures using a tripod, you can set the timer to 2-3 seconds to get the camera to settle down after pressing the shutter release. I like the large aperture for blurring the background. It helps to leave your camera on one setting and shoot all day to see what everything will look like at that setting so you know when to use it.

    I've been using cameras for more than 50 years now and know all about the technical details he discusses, but when I'm out in the field I tend to forget to apply my knowledge properly. I appreciate this refresher and reminder that I need to be digging a bit deeper into my settings. It's also important to practice on your own cameras a lot so you can make these settings without thinking about them too much. If you have to stop and think about how to change the ISO setting on your camera, for example, you probably won't think to do it.

    Mark, excellent video. I can see by your demeanor that you are a popular instructor. I made the leap away from auto mode 10 years ago and can relate to all your examples. It occurs to me you could easily make a follow-up video with another 5 tips to set people's photography apart from the masses. Here are 3 of my favorites, that took my photos to the next level: 1. Learn to use the flash, in daylight, to light up the face of the subject and take beautiful portraits. And taking 2 or 3 steps back to soften the flash intensity (and zooming in if needed to compensate for the greater distance) makes all the difference in a back lit scene or low light. 2. Add a Circular Polarizer Filter (CPL) to your camera lens and leave it there. It's an inexpensive way to protect your camera's lens and takes your landscapes to a higher level! Learning to place the sun at 90 degrees to the camera (more or less) and rotating the filter to remove all that glare from the water and the rooftops and deepen colors really sets your photos apart from the masses with cell phones and point-and-shoot cameras. This one even works in Auto mode. 3. Learning to use any solid object around you to stabilize the camera is key to taking sharp photos in low light or when zoomed in. Many digital cameras (entry and even mid level) don't have image stabilization, so resting the camera on a fence rail, or placing the side of the camera against a tree or sign post etc does the trick and helps get a sharp pic without lugging a tripod around.
