    Although i already understand the basics of ISO/aperture/shutter speed, i found this video a helpful refresher particularly the explanation about why sometimes at low apertures the shot can end up out of focus. Cheers Jason!

      @@JasonVong You should also include explanation of when the subject is further away from the camera, then DoF gets larger, so i.e. shooting at f1.4 will have different DoF depending on how far the subject is from the camera. I assume you know that, right...?

    • @careylymanjones
      @careylymanjones 7 місяців тому

      If you've set the correct aperture and shutter speed for the effect you want, having your ISO too low will result in an underexposed shot. You will get more noise trying to fix the underexposure in post, than you would have, if you'd used the correct ISO, even if it's "high".
      If you have to use ISO 12,000 to get the exposure right, use ISO 12,000. It is almost ALWAYS better to get the exposure right, in the camera, than to try to fix it, in post.

    Thank you for this video! Going through a photography college course, our professor gave us the run down on all the important things so that we could manual all our settings. However, she forgot to mention the difference between shutter speed minimums of focal lengths being DIFFERENT between full and crop censor cameras. As well, your explanation of DOF for aperture really helped me understand photographing moving subjects during my street photography.
