It frustrates my wife that it takes me longer than her to take a picture. I use a D70 and she uses her phone. Ironically, she always likes my photos better. Everyone wants to eat the sausages but no one wants to see how they see made.

Photo Genius Hi Paul, hope you and your family are safe and well...I’m having a bit of issue here...a year ago I bought a eos Canon DSLR 2000d, I do travel a lot with my camera but I realised there is one major problem, I ran out of battery power easily,so I was searching to see if I could find a battery grip that would be compatible with my 2000d canon camera...just found out that canon doesn’t make one for the eos 2000d...someone also gave me some misleading info and I end buying one that doesn’t fit...can you please help me I would truly appreciate it...do you know of any brands that might be compatible with the 2000d canon...I would really appreciate your help please..thank You Paul!

Hi, Paul! I'm transitioning from a 35mm camera to a DSLR camera. As a someone on a budget, I'm starting with an entry level camera. I appreciate the way you show us how to use the Canon EOS T7 effectively. Your easy-to-follow tutorials have really helped me understand the fundamentals of using the creative modes on my camera. You have a new follower and I'll continue to eagerly await your posts. I've learned so much. Thank you!

Comprehensive, concise and your own enthusiasm makes it fun to watch!

Charlie looks like a great dog! New subscriber and would love to see more of him. I just learned 2 major things I have been struggling with forever in under 8 minutes from 2 of your videos. Thank you so much for being concise and not acting like a high faluting photographer even though you are an expert. Straight to the point. Thanks for keeping it real and on point.

Being new to the photography world i was really struggling how i can choose the subject for my focus. It was very frustrating because no matter how i adjust the focus dial in my lens it just wouldn't work. This video helped me a lot in understanding how should i command the camera focus point. Thank you!

Thanks for a constructive tutorial. Just like to say that I have the aperture mode selected and can still bring up the focus points as you have shown and use the front dial to choose the required focus point without having to go into manual, Nothing wrong with either , would just like a comment on why you chose manual as opposed to a creative mode. Enjoy your videos, all so helpful.

Hi Colin You are of course correct - this will work also work in the creative /semi-manual modes such as aperture and shutter priority. I do try and encourage people to use full manual because I think it's really important to get understand the relationship between the aperture, shutter and ISO. But also a fan of the priority modes and have featured them in other videos. Appreciate your feedback and support for my channel. Best wishes, Paul @ Photo Genius.

Thanks for a clear to the point explanation. I just realised that manual could be only selection of focus points and yet the focus is automatic. I was trying to learn photo stacking and am not sure if the point is selected by the "focus points" or "f stop". I am new to photography and above 70 hence the doubt could be very basic. Thanks

@photogenius

5 жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching - keep practising 👍👍

Excellent explanation about selecting the correct focus point which can only be done in Manual mode. The real problem however is that, in Manual mode selecting the correct focus point is the easy part! You still need to also select the correct f stop, shutter speed and ISO your self. After many, many years of trying for photos on the run when there is little, if any time to waste on those selection, I still get that part wrong too often to be out of Auto mode! Aperture and shutter priority modes don't always solve this problem either because you still need to ensure you have selected the correct f stop or shutter speed for the circumstances of your photo.

@photogenius

Hi Rick, thanks for watching my video. You are correct, selecting the focus point is certainly a lot easier (and quicker) than working out which shutter, aperture or ISO to use - this is why practising what we have learnt is so important, and the beauty of digital (unlike film) of course is that we can take lots of images and make plenty of mistakes and it doesn't matter. Programme mode would be my recommendation - with this mode you can still select then focus point with the camera looking after everything else. Best wishes Paul @ Photo Genius. Please consider subscribing - new videos every week.

I just want to say thank you! It helped me a lot, I was using just auto because I am a beginner and I don't know how to use manual, but your channel helped me to improve my knowledge.... Thank you very much, good luck!

No, once the camera is in full auto mode you have not control over the focus points. Give Programme (P) mode a go as this is very similar to auto but you can adjust and change settings such as AF points.

What about using the center focus point to focus on a subject outside the center of the picture then recomposing to take the picture, is that ok.

@photogenius

Sure, this will work as long as you are not too close to your subject. I personally prefer to move the focus point to the subject rather than focus / recompose.
