      Forgot to mention, I've been doing photography for 5 years now with some really great equipment (Sony a6000, Sony a6400, and Nikon 5600) Various lenses). Never knew what one single button's purpose was. It was all point and shoot. A couple of months I got the Sony a7iv and decided to actually learn everything about it to really maximize my photography. This video was super helpful! Thank you again.

    this was excellent!!! thank you! I've been shooting manual for a long time and thought it was the best way to shoot but lately i've been looking for a way to have better control and this video really shows me that having complete control all the time can also be a downfall, so allowing the very expensive camera to do some of the work is not a bad thing, NOT AT ALL. So thank you for this video, very helpful.

    First I want to say, Thank You! Your video was very informative and easy to fallow. I only have one question about your f4 & f2.8 suggestions for your portraits. I know that getting good Bokeh outdoors is one good reason for shooting wide open with portraits, but was there any other reason? In the past, I have had a Love / Hate relationship with shallow depth of field. My Nikon D850's autofocus is "hit or mis" with shallow depth of field in studio. Outdoors, no problem. Sometimes my modeling Lights aren't bright enough for my Autofocus. For portraits in the studio, I have had to mark the floor for my subjects and have them sit for careful focusing and keep my studio ambient lights bright while my ISO is low in order to keep my cameras autofocus working consistently. So I end up shooting f5.6 - f11

If you don’t practice a lot. I also do a lot in manual but now moving more to street photography. I’m trying to figure out best setting.
    I will try your technique of a priority. F4 speed to 125. Since hand held and auto iso. Will see. Any other tip for street p..?

  • @dangalender8748
    @dangalender8748 4 роки тому +2

    James, I really liked this video and got a lot out of it. I did, however, think that there were 2 things that you could have at least mentioned in the landscape portion. Those would be that when using a tripod turn Steady Shot off and when using such a slow shutter speed to use a wired or wireless remote or a 2 second timer to reduce camera shake. I realize that these points are not part of the main story (Aperture Priority), but could have been mentioned in a second or 2. But, other than that, great info!

    I noticed during the portrait portion, as you moved the camera around from light to dark areas your shuttle speed stayed constant at 1/125.
    The challenge for me in Aperture priority has been the constantly changing shutter speed. Is there some specific setting that locks the shutter speed in? I set my iso min ss and all yet my ss is all over the map usually too low to freeze slight movements or compensate for shake common in portrait/wedding/event work.
    Thanks for the vid.🙏🏾💪🏾

      Hey Mikey. Thanks so much, man! Great question, and sure Aperture Priority works just fine with a manual lens.

That G85 is an awesome camera, especially for video! You will love it!

    Anyway, I am currently experiencing cognitive issues so getting into the photography world as if I have never used a camera before is extremely frustrating and a serious challenge.

    See I was already using manual but had never used aperture priority or shutter priority and I found I was missing shots sometimes especially in faster moving subjects or fleeting moments so I wanted to learn more about it...

  • @RomellAlaman
    @RomellAlaman 3 роки тому +1

    I am a little bit confused. You said in aperture mode, we just adjust the aperture, but then, the ISO was adjusted as well .To me this is more a "manual mode" rather than Av mode.

      No problem, to get the best results from Aperture priority please see below.
      Just one thing to bear in mind when setting a minimum shutter speed on your camera Generally speaking, using the standard rule of thumb is to make the minimum shutter speed equal to the maximum focal length of your lense when hand- holding your camera. For example, if you are shooting with a 200mm lens then you want to keep your minimum shutter speed at 1/200 sec or above to avoid any blur occurring from camera shake.

    When taking outdoor portraits in aperture priority with auto ISO will you get consistent exposures in a series of photos shot in the same location?

    • @tehMaloWalo
      @tehMaloWalo 2 роки тому +1

      nope. ISO will bounce around and so will your shutter speed

    Great tips James thank you, When I am in APriority, my ISO indoors routinely goes to 25600. I dont want noisy pics. They are also over exposed. What am I doing wrong? I can play with exposure comp. but why must I? I thought these cameras were "smart."

    If ISO and shutter speed are then automatic in Av, why do I have dark photos that need exposure compensation to be changed.
