In this week’s episode, we discuss how to get started with long exposure photography. Perhaps the best part about long exposure photography is that you're able to create something that doesn't exist in real life as you cannot see the impact that long exposures has on moving objects with your naked eye. And, the best part is that you don't have to rely on post-processing wizardry in order to create this, it's all done in camera, which I think is super cool!
In this video, I discuss the three main types of filters used for long exposure landscape photography and how best to apply them. The three main filters are Circular Polarizers, Neutral Density filters, and Graduated Neutral Density filters, but before you go slapping filters on the end of your lenses, there's a few steps that need to be completed from a settings perspective beforehand. Once you have your composition set and camera settings dialed in, now you can begin adding filters to your lens and this is where the real fun begins. I enjoy experimenting with different shutter speeds searching for different effects especially when photographing long exposure seascape scenes or really any scene with moving water.
I hope this video answers any questions you may have regarding how to get started with long exposure photography or any questions you have related to photography filters. Getting started with long exposures may seem a bit intimidating at first, but once you begin you'll quickly realize that it's much easier than you originally had thought.

From couch potato to mountain climber. All because of the love for landscape photography. Less money in the bank, but I'm much happier!
I am a 72 year old photographer....started when I was 9 years old. I got my first camera at 9 by collecting soda bottles from people's trash and trading them in for 2 cents a bottle until I had $5.20 to buy a Kodak 620 box camera. Then I would repeat the process to buy film and then again to get it developed. It was a slow process. Much of my photography is self taught from taking photos to color development before the current megapixel system. I have some equipment but no filters maybe you can help me before I die or get too old to go out and take photos. In any case I have enjoyed the photography process for many years and have seen tremendous change and I hope to be around to enjoy even more.
What a crock of shit 😂
G’day Joe. You might see my response to your comment. I’m 74 and I started learning from scratch at 71. Bloody hard work with no knowledge and having to study,watch, listen, try, fail but I keep on learning. Great to see your just the same. Try and try again. Stay safe Mate.
Almost the same story with me, 620 and 127 film TLR's and Box Cameras until I got my first SLR around 1973. Film developing is expensive so I mostly do digital but I still have my film cameras in case Godzilla blows out all the electronics with his EMP breath!
"You'll never be able to see the effect of long exposure on moving water or clouds with your naked eye".
I got a tab of LSD here that would beg to differ on a technicality, but for the most part you're right.
What he said;)
Long exposure images were one of the very first things that drew me into photography and it's still my favorite.
Photography is a form of therapy for me. Also it helped my sensibility towards to the world that surrounds me.
I have been learning, experience, doing mistakes, loving it. I have been photographing for about 2 years now, recently I got the courage to shot on the manual setting and I am loving it. I have been learning many things through your UA-cam channel, thank you for adding to my growth.
Andrea Annie I’m a complete newbie, I’ve had good pictures but a lot of bad ones too. Good Luck 🍀 .
I wasn't interested in photography at all, and around 5 years ago i saw a a heavily discounted canon 1100d at the mall i work in, and thought: "why not, it's cheap and might make me look cool!". i wasn't taking any of it seriously at all :) but then i started to read about what you can do with an DSLR, learning more and more about composition, exposure and editing, and here I am now with photography being my main interest, chasing far off landscapes at the early hours of the day.
It just shows you the true power that can change lives and alter destinies: great discounts!
I am a young photographer from Germany, I shoot pretty much anything, but love the process of taking landscapes, because you see some beautiful places and are able to capture them with your camera.
I started photography 8 years ago. I started to capture places I visit. Over the course of time I actually take images of the places I visit so my friends can live vicariously through me as most of the places I have they will never be to go. So I do a lot of landscape / travel photography.
Hello mark,
I started in high school in the darkroom and fell in love with the art. Took a long break to taise kids lol, just entered tbe digital world about 2 years ago, so i am re-learning everything. I have come a long way in 2 years but have a long way to go. Your videos have helped. Thank you. I really do appreciate the the work that you do.
Hey Mark,
I’m a new landscape photographer and I do A LOT of time-lapses. I’ve been shooting just under 2 years. I just bought my second Sony camera. I now have the A7iii and the A7riii.
Your video on bracketing has changed the way I shoot certain landscapes. All of your videos are so helpful but that one in particular was fantastic.
I appreciate when people I look up to in terms of photography help other people. Keep up the great work!
Photography for me is like a getaway, a hobby to keep me occupied and sane. Being the only photographer in the family, I urge my younger cousins to explore their undiscovered potential. Hoping to continue it till my last breath.
Amateur, beginning photographer here. Your videos make learning the craft less mysterious and easy to understand. A million thanks!
I'm just a middle aged bloke that took up photography about 7 years ago. I enjoy landscape and long exposure photography. Thanks to people like yourself and a couple of other UA-camrs you make learning new stuff fun and exciting.
A couple of months ago I started using the 6 stop, 10 stop, a couple of Grad filters and a polarizer from LeeFilters. I'm absolutely in love with this type of photography. And you can use them not only for long exposures. But the grads and the polirizer really lower the amount spent on the PC post-procesing. Many things are accomplished in-camera which is absolutely cool.
Photography has really grown to be. passion over the past few years. From action (mostly mountain biking) to wildlife, landscapes, to dreamy, long exposure sunrises/sunsets, I play around with a bit of everything. Being a photographer and living near the mountains means I have almost endless excuses to get away from everything and find peace and quiet while allowing the creative juices to flow.
I was a news photographer in the late 1970s and early 1980s. I photographed theater in the early 1980s including Ella Fitzgerald, Benny Goodman, Steve Martin, Danny Kaye and many others.
As in a typical japanese family, photography has been in my live since ever. So more than a hobby, or profession is a style of life, a form of expression where unnumbered moments were registered. I came up to your channel on a pursuit of improving my skills and get the most of my (kind of beaten) Rebel T3. I does not have any particular style rather than registering our life that might range from landscaping, sports, portrait, events, etc...
Thanks for sharing your knowledge !
Today I combined a picture of the moon with a picture of the stars and I´m really happy with the result, it is simple but knowing that I´m happy with my first try I feel good about trying it again. I learn so much frome these videos and there are many awsome creators on youtube but I must say that I have become better mostly becuse of you and your talent to teach, at least I feel that you have that talent :) Keep up the good work!
You could call me a senior citizen photographer. Retired in my late sixties and became disabled. No problem, aside from having to give up golf and hiking. That's when my youngest daughter said she could remember when she was young that I always had a camera in my hand; the film kind. Got back into the hobby full throttle, purchased a Canon 80D, a new laptop for my Lr post processing, for which I then knew nothing. The laptop was Windows driven, ouch, hard to operate after all the Apple products I used in the past. Got it done though. Learned the basics of the camera, and now shoot in raw, and now starting to look at the filter system, especially for landscape, which we have here, where I live. I can get close to much of it because of having a four wheel pickup truck, and lots of forests around us. In short my ambition is to take the best pictures that I can learn to take. I put hours in every day watching videos, tutorials, and playing with my camera. Your videos have helped to supply me with one of my learning resources, as well as insightful tips. Thanks again for being there for me and all who are in need of good teachers. If you choose me, the filters will be put to use. I have the cheap screw on type now, and they haven't worked out the best for me. Was impressed with your video and the filter system. Looks much easier to employ while learning to use, and for the post finishing process. That's important to me.
Started my trip with photography back in 5th grade with Mr. Nesbitt after school and 40 years later I enjoy it as much as I did back then.
Shooting on beach is one of my favorite scenarios. Lucky to be living on an Island (Puerto Rico!).
I'm a student who rather recently got into photography, due to the fact that my mom moved to the mountains and I saw all these amazing views that I wanted to capture. Hence I started to research and came across your channel, and I must say I like your style of video a lot when it comes to photography-tubers, it's calm, down to point, easy to understand and relaxing. Good job! I've researched filters recently since I shoot almost exclusively outside, and I really wanna catch those creeks with smooth water. Got any tips besides filters?
I started a year ago with my photography... What I adore about it, is the amount of knowlege out there - and how much people are willing to share. It makes me happy to witness that "anyone" can do it now, if they were so inclined to :)
I am a new photographer. I got my first DSLR 15 months ago so I could spend time with my dad. He has been taking pictures most of his life. Spending time with him is as great as I hoped. What I didn't expect is the passion I would have for photography itself. I started with a crop sensor entry level camera. I focused on buying the best lenses I could. This was great to get my understanding of many basics. In June of this year my dad and I went to the Grand Tetons on a workshop. The experts on the trip encouraged me to get a camera with more features to support my growth. I bought a Nikon D850. I changed out my lenses as well. I now have a 16-35 f4, a 24-70 f2.8, a 70-200 f2.8, a 200-500 f5.6 and a 105mm macro. This brings me to the real progress. I have been watching many UA-camrs to learn skills to leverage the equipment. Many are motivational but the best are educational. This brings me to you. Your humble and conversational style has been extraordinary for my growth. I have spent the last 3 months really working on post processing in Lightroom. This is where you have quickly helped me change from taking pictures to taking photographs. I live in Washington state. My dad loves landscape photography and so do I. We both also go to the Oregon coast as much as possible. I have been working on long exposure around water with inexpensive filters. I love the pics but I know I need better filters. In closing I just want to let you know that your images and your channel have inspired and made it possible for me to do better. Keep up the wonderful content.
Congratulations!
Seems like there’s two types of people in the world - those that like Long Exposures & those that don’t, Which are yoU?
Definitely in the Long Exposure likers category! Time to do some with my new A7rIV.
Mark Denney I’m a big fan of long exposure photography.
Just beginning that journey.
I’m upgrading my inexpensive ND filters to Lee.
Thanks for the helpful video!😀👍
I’m now considering Nisi after watching.
Thanks again!
I'd LIKE to do daytime long exposures, but the closest i've come is a few seconds here and there at dawn/dusk. I should invest in some ND filters
It depends on the subject I guess for me, I really enjoy seeing night time photography but if I look at one more long exposure waterfall as long as I live it'll be one too many!
Long exposures = just feel more creative!
I have been in Photography for about 1 years, and now I got admission at the University to Study Still Photography and Visual Communication. It's all because of you. You are my inspiration
Oh wow! Thanks so much - very kind of you to say!
@@MarkDenneyPhoto Thank you for being here Sir!
I've been taking photographs for nearly 50 years now. I started with a Kodak Instamatic film camera which my dad brought home from work - someone had left it on a bus and never claimed it. After all this time I'm only just really beginning to understand the whole process of image-making. There's such a lot still to learn. When I started there was no UA-cam and no one to teach or give advice about how to do things so you just blundered along making expensive mistakes - developing and printing costs were massive in comparison to my pocket money pennies. I well remember the tears when a whole 12 exposure film came back with 12 totally black pictures that had taken a fortnight's planning and hard work to shoot. Digital makes experimenting and learning a whole lot easier. Thank you for your teaching and inspiration.
I started photografy about 4 years ago and today landscape belongs to my faforite subjects. Up to now I have never tried long exposures but I am often blown away by this kind of images.
I do mostly landscape and cityscape photography. Most of the stuff I shoot is along Route 66.
James Hilderbrand man I need to add a trip down Route 66 to next year's schedule. Thanks for the reminder Brother. You must get epic shots there. 🐼🧟♂️
Okay?
As a colorblind photographer it's always an exciting time when I can find something that helps me manage the "color" of any particular photograph. These really look like nice filters.
Hobby photographer, mainly macro & landscape but it's been a lifesaver for my mental health. It gives me a way to disconnect from the chaos, to slow down & breath.
Thanks for the video Mark, great information! I’ve been following your channel since you reviewed the Atlas camera bag, which I eventually purchased, thanks for that recommendation, what a great bag! Anyways, thoroughly enjoy your content, keep up the good work!
Great content as usual. I was just watching your progress videos yesterday and it's super inspiring for a newbie like me what you've been able to accomplish in less than a year. Great work!
Love your channel and how straight forward and easy to understand your content sounds like. I'm most passionate about taking photographs high up in the mountains without any distraction. Love the calmness and serenity up there...ohh and the views! Thx Mark
Even though I photograph cities and citiscapes, I like to watch channels of landscape photographers. They are calming :)
Enjoying your videos Mark, thank you for all the tips and advice. You’ve inspired me to get out there and take more photographs, this time with some longer exposures.
I love the way you explain everything. Really cool videos. I found your channel today, so you really intrigued me. Thanks for sharing all this info with us. Good luck. Waiting for more videos from you.
Hey Mark! Loved the video and thanks for making so many videos explaining what you know. It’s always great hearing about areas I can improve in my photography. Growing up in Yosemite is what got my start in photography and I’ve been learning something new every time I go out and shoot!
I'm a guy from lovely country in the exact centre of Europe called Slovakia. I got into photography a year ago, and I've received my first request to photograph someone just week or two ago. The best part is, that he was satisfied, so I am to shoot with him again tomorrow. Really looking forward to it!
Hi Mark, I ran across your video's and subscribed right away. I find the content you share to be super relevant to a new photographer like myself. I plan to start experimenting with long exposure soon.
Hello Mark, great video again, I’m just about to start on the long exposure photography and love your explanation. Thank you
I first began my photography journey probably sometime around 1990 when I was given a little disposable film camera. I don't think I have any of those photos anymore, and to be honest, they were probably all garbage, but it sparked something in me, and I've had a bit of a passion for it ever since, though it hasn't always been at the forefront.
Having taken up guitar during my teen years I spent all my pocket money on musical equipment, so photography took a back seat until sometime around the mid 2000's when I was given an Olympus ~10MP digital point and shoot. I went crazy taking photos of anything and everything, and then my daughter came along and photography took a back seat again until a few years ago when a dear old friend who had just reignited their own passion for photography gave me an entry level fixed lens Pentax digital camera and reignited my passion for it, too. I've since upgraded a few times and recently started taking it a little more seriously, taking in as much info on the topic as I can, but also trying to put it in to practice as often as I can.
Mark, Have been enjoying your videos for awhile now. my passion is landscapes so I find your information spot on. Great explanation of the Nisi system. Thanks.
Been introduced to photography 7 years ago when my uncle gave me a nikon d3100 as a graduation gift. Still using it today with upgraded glass shooting as a hobbyist and still satisfied with its image quality.
I got hooked into photography when on holiday in the lake District about 3 years ago, landscapes is what I enjoy doing from the planning/hiking and then the image. Long exposure is such a fun aspect of photography which is why I enjoy doing it. I own the Nikon d7200 and find getting the sharp the hardest. Thank you for your helpful videos
Always great videos - easy listening, easy watching and straight forward thoughts and advice for all us getting started in photography. Thanks Mark.
I'm usually not into landscape photography but, watching your videos it makes me just grab my camera, steal my father's tripod and run through the Tuscan hills and click click click... Thanks again for your super useful tutorials.
Great to see the channel doing so well mark! Long exposure photography definitely is addictive, I just wish I lived nearer to the coast...
I truly enjoy your videos. Each one breaks down a concept of photography and puts it in simple, easy to understand terms. i learned multiple things about ND vs graduated filters and their respective uses in this video alone! I loved, in particular, the comparison pictures using each one. Keep up the good work Mark!
Again a very useful video. Your explanations are clear and easy to understand. I can feel your passion for photography by watching you. As always, I wish I was there enjoying the experience.
I started doing photography in 2017 when my dad gave me his DSLR. It's a Nikon D3100 and it gets the job done. I find myself shooting mostly nature and landscapes and I love every second of it!
Watching your youtube Videos is constantly increasing my learning curve. I appreciate the way you manage to transfer your knowledge and your passion for photography. A big thumbs up!
My wife and I are passionate about landscape photography. I enjoy learning from your tutorials. Many places you visit are not too far for us to shoot since we live in Tennessee. I find myself doing the count down to your video each week. Love your style.
Love the channel and truly appreciate you passing along what you have learned. I am just beginning to expand upon my base of knowledge and venture into the different types of photography. Landscape and long exposure are becoming 2 of my favorite types. Being able to capture the earth with all of the colors is simply fascinating. Again, thank you for all you do. Keep up the good work!!
Hi Mark, I always enjoy the videos. I've been photographing for many years. I recently have been slowing down and trying to be more intentional with the photographs I make. So long exposure photography has really caught my eye. Thanks for the great videos!
Love the videos, keep it up! I bought a camera years ago to take nice photos of my design work, but over the last year have really gotten into landscape photography and i just love it! Such a nice relaxing escape.
Hi Mark, I have discovered your channel a while back and I look forward to your weekly videos now. Really nice to watch and very inspiring! Living only two minutes from the North Sea you made me realize I should really start to discover the possibilities of long exposures as well......
Ive always loved nature, hiking, and the outdoors. Landscape photography has become a great way for me to capture exactly how the outdoors makes me feel and the comfort it brings.
I love how you keep it simple for the new people trying to learn. and you provided examples of pictures with and without filters next to each other. Thank you for the video
Hey mark. Love your videos. I’m just getting back into photography after a long hiatus and finishing up school. Your videos have helped me get back out there and play around. Thanks so much for the time you put into these videos! Just got the Lumix s1 and am loving it! A good filter kit has been on my needs list! Thanks for the review
Thanks for the straightforward video Mark! I’ve been looking at those NiSi filter holder kits for a couple months now trying to figure out which one I wanted. This gave me the info I needed to make that choice. Keep up the great work with these videos. They’re a great mix of “how to” and down to earth sharing of your experiences with landscape photography.
Hey 👋 Mark , I’m just entering the field of Landscape photography after being involved with Wedding and Portrait photography for many years part time;while working at Eastman Kodak as a Lab tech . I’m at the stage in my life that Landscape photography is what I want to be part of . I really enjoy 😊 your youtube videos . The way you presented the information regarding the art 🖼 of landscape . photography. My love of photography stared at 13 . My Brother gave a camera when we visited Niagara Falls . I set the camera on a wall ( had no tripod) overlooking the Falls at nighttime with color lights were shining on the American Falls from Canada 🇨🇦 side. When I saw the processed print, I was blown away at the results I captured on film . I have been in love 😍 with photography for one heck of a long time , almost 60 years now. End of story. Thanks for all your knowledge and hard work.
Regards Richard
I love taking pictures of nature. There is so much to learn and your videos are very helpful for me to grow on this photography journey I'm in. Thank you, Mark!
Hi Mark,
I love all of your videos. They're always very informative. I've learned so much from following your channel. I hope your channel continues to grow. Good luck to you
I really like your channel and very descriptive videos. I'm rather new to DSLR photography and have a lot to learn. I'm saving up for a good filter kit and your description of the NISI system was very helpful. Thank you again for the great videos and of course for the great photos.
Hi Mark! I really do like your UA-cam films. I learn a lot all the time. I love taking landscape pictures and I'm always try to improve my work and for that you help a lot. Keep up the good work! Erik from Sweden.
This tutorial on long exposure was crystal clear from start to finish and I hope to see more such content. Thanks so much Mark.
Thanks for the info. Just getting started with long exposure and looking for a good filter system. Your video was very helpful. Thanks!!
Hi Mark, So glad I stumbled across your channel while browsing aimlessly a few days ago. I have watch ed a few of your videos now and find your easy listening style and Jargonless technique a real pleasure. I was heavily into photography over 30 years ago, but life does sometimes tend to get in the way, well the good news is I am back and looking forward to it all. I have found I have lots to learn in the digital world, editing, software choices and so much control available before, during and after the shot.
Keep up the great work, you have to feed my addiction now.
Appreciate everything you do, thanks! I haven’t been in photography too long, maybe a few months now, but I shoot cars a lot, and landscape photography has always been a go to for me, even if I’m not that great at it. Thanks again Mark!
Thanks for the great tutorial. I am particularly interested in long exposure and this was a perfect video with great explanation that helps to take the mystery and angst out of using filters! Also loved the comment about a day at the beach! Cheers
Hey Mark, great topic as usual. After “taking pictures” for about 30 years and getting mostly average results I upgraded my camera and started learning more about photography instead of just “taking pictures” and your videos are helping a lot with that as well as some local classes. I’ve dabbled with various filters with mixed results but will keep trying. I have a 6 stop ND that I was able to use for a really nice Joshua tree sunset shot here in the desert a while ago with the sun in the shot. The ND made it so the sun didn’t over power the rest of the scene.
Thanks for the help.
Thanks Mark. I have played around with the long exposures on the river here in Richmond, as well as when I am down in Southport. It's always great to see how a real professional does things and your videos are always clear and approachable. Also, I was unaware of the NiSi line, so that was a nice per as well. Thanks again man!
Hey Mark! Thanks for many tips and guides, which are priceless for beginning photographer like me. I've just started my adventure with photography and regularly implementing Your hints into my photos.
Thanks for the video and the contest. I'd love to use those filters for my woodlands and landscape photography. Maybe I'll finally get that long exposure!
Hi Mark, enjoyed the video on Long Exposure. I have been trying to learn photography for the last couple of years and had not realised how much there is to learn. Videos like yours are really helpful and I normally take advantage of rewind so that I can really appreciate the points being made. Keep the videos coming.
Great video and newly subscribed!
I've always been interested in photography but only owned my first dslr after being gifted one by my late father in law. I love it! Photography allows me to express my creative side and has allowed me to join photo communities, meeting many new people, experimenting with new methods and learning something new everytime I take my camera out.
Keep up the good work!
Glad I watched this video. It's good seeing the difference between 3, 6 and 10 stop filter. So many other videos on the subject never show examples of the exact same subject to see the different. Thanks Mark.
Hello Mark. Very informative video. I especially liked your detailed explanation on how to determine the appropriate shutter speed with the filters. I have been watching all kinds of videos from different landscape photographers discussing long exposure photography and yours was the most comprehensible. I have been teaching myself long exposure/landscape photography with some guidance from your videos and other landscape photographers. Thank you for the enlightenment. Looking forward to your next video. Peace!🙂
Excellent video Mark. Clear and concise on the use of filters .... much appreciated! I got into photography about 4 years ago . I love the outdoors and it fit right into my lifestyle. It’s a great way to get you out the door especially during cloudy or stormy days. I love all kinds of photography but especially landscape. Thanks for your great videos 👍
Just upgraded my system and am excited about taking things to another level. Thanks for the tutorial on these filters. Very cool stuff!
Hi Mark! I really enjoy your videos. Very easy to follow.
I am learning photography and love landscapes. I do some sports shooting as well.
I find long exposures very interesting and looking forward to giving that a try as well. Keep the videos coming.
Keep up the good info Mark. Appreciate the content. Got started in photography shooting for my high school yearbook back in the day.
Thanks as always for the incredibly helpful video Mark. Shooting beach scenes especially long exposure (with and without filters) is one of my FAVORITE types of landscape photography! As a matter of fact, my love for shooting the beach has crossed over to a love for shooting all types of bodies of water- lakes, rivers, falls or beaches...if there's water I'll shoot it! Nothing else like it!! Have a fantastic week!
I found your channel a few weeks ago and love all of your videos. Your channel is very inspirational and educational. I think it is great how you were able to become a full time photographer after leaving the corporate world. Gives me hope and motivation to someday make a passion of mine a career too. Keep up the great work!!
Man, I love your channel, son instructive. I started photography 2 years ago with my smarthphone and since then, i bout a camera and learned a lot from you and improoved a lot my photography skills. Continue like that you're on the right path.
This is inspiring... thank you for sharing. I just started taking landscape long exposure and this demo was very helpful.
Hello Mark,
I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your videos. I subscribed to your channel after watching one of your videos that was “recommended” while watching other UA-cam videos on my tv. I find your simplistic approach at instructing very refreshing and easy to understand. I’ve already incorporated some of what I’ve learned into my own photography. I’m a self taught hobbyist at best, who thoroughly enjoys taking photos. My genres of interest are wildlife and landscapes. I look forward to each new video and urge you to keep doing what you’re doing. Thank you again for helping me as well as others in furthering our photographic skills.
I've been into taking pictures for a long time now but have only recently started to learn about all of the sertings on my camera! Ive learned quiet a lot from your videos! Thank you very much Mark!! Keep up the great content!
Mark, thank you for the videos! Being new to photography and learning all I can, I really like your straight forward approach to ideas and techniques. Thanks! 👊🏻
Filters have been the most trying part of my gear! They can be so expensive and no one wants to waste money! I appreciate the detailed explanation on this filter system! You have been a big help for my maturing photography skills!
Hello Mark. Greetings from Brazil.
First of all, congratulations for the almost 60k subs!
Happy to see that all the effort you put in this channel is working out just fine!
I share with you this thrill about long exposure photography.
It is almost as going back to the old film days where you had to develop and wait for the photograph to reveal itself.
When the lcd comes back to life and you see that the exposure is fine, focus in fine and that ethereal effect came out great,
that's when it's all worth it.
I'm an urban photographer in São Paulo and also wishing to make a living out of photography.
Watching your videos gives me the willing to keep shooting and create new images every day.
Thanks a lot for all these great content. Keep it up!
More great content. Thanks Mark. I am a beginner and I'm loving the process of learning through utube. I particularly like long exposure but I'm quickly discovering what an expensive hobby this is! Cheers
Your videos have really been instrumental in helping me take better pictures. I have just bought my first camera this year and I'm excited by all the different kinds of photography I have jet to try out!
Long exposure photography is one of them :)
Thanks for another great video Mark. I've really enjoyed learning from your tutorials, and definitely inspired me to go out there and shoot more photos. I haven't used a filter system before but has been on my wish list for a while now. Thanks!
I really liked this video. Especially how you compared various ND filters of the same subject to give a good idea of where you started and where you ended up by which you chose.
Thanks Mark. Just got back to photography after many years. Used to shoot a lot of film, but trying to catch up to the digital stuff. Have really enjoyed and been educated by your videos. Keep up the good work.
Great review, as always! I can relate to your videos a LOT! Especially when you mentioned in another video around mistakes - I had a a6000 and in under a year, I've made my way to an a7iii + full frame ecosystem without actually spending time learning techniques. I realised the mistake a while back and now I'm taking a few steps back to learn stuff. Your videos are super helpful! Looking forward to the next vid and IG banger.
This video came out just in time! I’m planning on going out to experiment with long exposure at the coast today. I’m very new to photography.
Thanks for the well explained video. I’ll rewatch it several times to get a better idea of the different filters. I love to shot landscape, but I had issues with the long exposure. This video would definitely help.
