Hope you are well ... stay safe! :)
Mark is like a cool uncle who teaches you cool things like photography and you are always happy to see him,
lol - thank you and more to come! :)
So happy you're posting again. These videos help me wind down and relax.
Good to see and hear from you again Mark. Looking forward to your installments for 2023. Here's one topic for you, wide angle photography. I just acquired a Nikon 14-24 mm lens and I'm having a blast with it so far. Always open to some more tips and tricks if you can offer any on this subject. Take care!
Look forward to the new content. Always good to see someone using normal equipment like normal people 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Great to see you back, Mark. Looking forward to more new content!
Great to be back and hope you are well! :)
I bought a Canon t6i because of you ❗️. This was 5 years ago... have been getting better through the years / and now I am enticing my 14 yr old daughter- hoping she stays on photography 📸.. as documenting our lives - really helps us appreciate and love our lives
Ahhh yes, the I remember reviewing the t6i - a good/solid camera:). Canon does a great job with AF as well. Sounds like you are on the right path - capture every moment as they will serve as awesome memories down the road.
Glad to see you back Marc.Looking forward to see your new videos .
Hey Mark, glad you are back and well!!!! I think the direction you want to take the channel is perfect!!! Everyone has questions about everything in tech. I will give you an example, I bought my wife a smart watch for Christmas (Not at all interested in the subject going into it) boy am I amazed at what it can do!!! The one that sells it for me is the ability to be a device that can run an EKG on your heart! I have a family history of heart disease and last week my doctor told me that they can not recheck me (I do have some heart defib but within the acceptable range) unless I am currently simptomatic. This tool will give me a change to monitor my condition and I will be able to see in advance if I have any worsening conditions perhaps. It also does many more things. Another item new to me in tech are the smart tags!!! I did not know these were out there, a simple way to track two of the three things I always have with me, that is my keys and my phone! I saw a report yesterday about the airlines having an issue with lost luggage again, would it not be so cool to check your app and see where you luggage is!!??? So there are a couple of small potatoes that are real game changers out there in the Real World!!
Appreciate all you do!
Rich aka Moonpie
Thanks for the post Rich!:) Ahhhh yes, I can appreciate your perspective on smart watches and various other devices. I feel the same about the EKG features along with accelerator indicators (fast drops, etc.), blood oxygen, pulse, sleep, etc. Air tags are another benefit to lost luggage and many other potentially lost items:). Stay tuned as we will navigate the waters together:).
I watched your video about long exposure photos with entry level dslr back in 2018, i had Nikon D5100 back then, i went out shot with same settings and i was blown away, i never thought that this was possible with my dslr, i knew nothing about dslr camera much, since then photography and videography became my passion, and i came long way by watching so many of your videos and other tips & tutorial videos, now im a sony user shooting with A7IV & FX3, few months back i checked ur channel thinking that because of your videos i came long way, and i was very sad to see that such a great channel with lots of knowledge isn't uploading anymore, good to see you are doing great and planning to upload again. you always made a very good tutorials, huge fan from Pakistan 👍
Thank you for your post/feedback and welcome from the United States:). Glad to be of help/inspiration - sounds like you have made great progress and the Sony A7IV is on my list to try very soon!:) How do you like it?
Glad to see you back and keeping well. Looking forward to the upcoming videos.
Good to see you back. I have missed your videos. Looking forward to your future videos.
I just discovered your channel when I was looking for the discreet topic of back-button focusing. I’ve been going through several of your vids, and given that we just moved to Indiana, I was happy to realize “hey, this guy is right here somewhere”. I really like your photography content, and as an IT guy as well your other subjects are also up my alley. Thanks for doing all of these, hope to cross paths with you some time.
Glad to be of help and thanks for the feedback!:) I have been relatively quiet over the last year but plan to post more videos relatively soon. I am thinking to overhaul my gear and focus on tutorials. Welcome to hoosier land! :)
Sooo Neat to have you back ❗️. Thanks for letting us know you've been good 👍
Great to be back Mario!:)
Your videos are what helped me learn how to use my Nikon D3400 five or six years ago. I have been eyeing mirrorless cameras more often these days and would love to hear your take on the pros and cons. Thanks!
Hard to believe it has been that long!:) The D3400 is still a solid crop sensor camera, however technology has advanced. All manufacturers are trying to stay relevant which is challenging given the advancements in cell phone technology and computation photography. Mirrorless cameras are the next evolution. I plan to migrate down a similar path as I explore various options. Nonetheless, I feel a great photo is not as much about the gear as it is about the photographer's ability to use the gear - any gear (old, new, or in the middle):). Composition and post process play a big part in the overall creative effort to capture truly amazing results in my opinion:).
Hey Mark and HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎉! It is sooooooo good to see you again. Keep up the great work you do. I’m still in Germany, but I will be checking out your post. God Bless Sir.
William
Thank you William! :)
Thanks for coming back to youtube Mark. Here in Australia where I live, we also have a huge variety of photo opportunities, from huge red deserts, to massive tropical rainforests and beautiful white sand beaches mountains and snow also. Your videos have inspired me to grab my camera gear and get out there to take some photos. Thanks for the effort, and time you put into your watchable, easy to follow and listen to videos.
Great to see you back 👍
Your videos are always interesting and informative.
Such a beautiful man 💯
Good to see you are back at it, and yes it was a bummer about the camera shop there in Carmel closing, I went there often myself. And thank you gain for your great videos, they taught me so much! And cause of that my pictures from my month long trip with my son out west were amazing, hope to have a few in the upcoming 2023 State Fair Deal. Thank you, cant wait to see the new content
Awesome to hear from you Bryant!:) The shop is Carmel was great - always clean and run by a solid group of professionals. Unfortunately, I sense the landscape is changing and the broad demand for DSLRs is falling as computation photography in cell phones is gaining massive ground. DSLRs will return is a relative small niche of professional photographers and strong enthusiasts who seek more from their images. I will always appreciate large sensors and the ability to post process - flexing full creativity to make an image pop!:) Nonetheless, great to hear you had an awesome/safe trip!:)
Good to see/hear from you again. You've always been a refreshingly different presenter, not like the over-slick, shouty, know-it-alls who seem to populate vast areas of the YT space these days. Looking forward to photo expeditions and the like.
Thanks for the post/feedback Martin:). I am looking forward to new adventures in 2023!
Real Glad you are doing ok you are definitely my go to for Nikon info you have shown me what I can really do with my D3500 and I have taken some fantastic shots with it, Thanks and cant wait to see what you have in store this year.
Thanks for the post/feedback and glad to be of help!:) Nikon created a solid camera with the 3000 and 5000 series IMO:). I still have my D3400 and it is running strong.
Nice to see you back. Looking forward to your comparison between iPhone and Samsung with their latest tech.
Looking forward to your new videos, Mark. I hope 2023 is a great year for you!
Same to you!
Good to see you back I thought you had finished video vlogs David bolton eng
Good to see you back. Your video and tips were indeed very helpful. I still watch your videos over and over again. I am from Chennai, Tamilnadu, India. Nice to see you and looking forward to your videos.
Thanks for the post/feedback and welcome from the United States! :)
Welcome back. Looking forward to more content from you.
So glad to have you back! You are the best teacher!
Thank you Cindy and glad to be back! :)
Good to see you are doing well! Happy 2023!
Glad to see your back dude... All the best for 2023..from the u.k
Thanks Keith and glad to be back! :)
Great to have you back Mark, it’ll be a great pleasure to start watching your videos again and learn more about photography, especially with the trusty D3400 👍
Thanks Rob!:) I have put the D3400 through some crazy adventures over the years and it is still with me!:)
It's been awhile Mark... It's great to see you doing well and glad to see your video... See you on your vids soon!
Never clicked so fast on a video!! Good to see you again ☺️
Thanks for the post Hayley! :)
Waiting for your videos.. 2023!! Happy new year to you & family... 🎊🎉🏮
Very happy to see you are well and ready to further educate us with your perfect style!
Would love to see more macro photography tips and tricks..lighting etc. Also your thoughts on the Tokina 100mm , Sigma 105mm and the 150mm macro lenses! Great to see you back.Thought our favorite tutor was not coming back to our screens From Newcastle England 🌎📷👌👍
Thanks for the post/suggestions! :) The Tokina is a hidden gem in my opinion - nice and solid:). More to come!
Good to see you again.. happy new year
Glad to see you back Mark. I've used a NIKON D70 for quite a few years and about a year I ungraded to a NIKON D7500 hoping to improve my photographic capabilities. For the past 4+ years we have been doing a LOT of traveling in our motorhome all over the USA and I've been trying to document our travels. Between my Galaxy S8, and now S10, I have unfortunately almost exclusively been using my cell phone to take all of my photos. As much as I have tried I just cannot duplicate the quality of my photos from my S10 with my D7500. I've set them side by side taking the same photo and I can't get the color or exposure the same and my S10 always comes out on top. I know the D7500 should do much better. I use Photoshop Elements 14 to process my photos and Vegas Pro 19 to compile my video. I know you promote shooting photos in RAW but when I can easily capture well over 2,000 photos on a 2 month trip that's an overwhelming amount of photos to be having to process. Could you do a video on how to get a DSLR to match the S10 photos?
Thanks for the post and suggestion!:) Wow - I can really appreciate your perspective and will attempt to work through it in an upcoming video. I have been using my cell more and more as well, however I just encountered various benefits to shooting in raw with a much larger sensor - I pulled images from a recent photo adventure into Lightroom and started post processing. The larger sensor allowed me to pull more detail from the image and really leverage more creativity in post to make images pop. Nonetheless, I love the convenience of using a cell phone!:) I will soon post a video on a trip to Red River Gorge in which I used my old iphone 6s to exclusive shoot and edit all shots in the video - the results were much better than I expected. Stay tuned as this video will launch very soon:).
@@RealWorld Many thanks. I'm subscribed to will be looking forward for more of your videos. I have the cameras for taking video but it seems as though shooting photos and putting them into video slide shows has been easier. I can then narrate the video, add some graphics and background music etc. I think we'll be heading out to the north west next year and may try shooting a little video during that trip.
Welcome to the channel and travel safe!:) Depending on where you start, I suspect you have some great opportunities to capture shots along the way:).
good to see you back Mark.
It's glad to see you again!!
Always happy to learn from you
Mah man ✊🏼 good to see you back! 😅 I’ve been missing in action as well with new job and I will also be putting a cell bs expensive camera and lens…. I can’t lie, I’m a bit worried or sadden that big companies charge so much money for cameras and lens but, can’t measure up. Cells shoot 48mp or more and are getting better in low light.
Hey Dennis - all good!:) Agreed, cell phones have come a loooong way and I plan to put them through the paces:).
Good to see you back, and good to hear you are well. Looking forward to seeing the videos you are working on.
Nice to see you back.....😍
Good to see you back Mark. I’ve switched from DSLR to Micro Four Thirds so would be great to get your thoughts on that system at some point in the future. Good luck with the camera store relationships.
Great to see all is well Mark. While i've moved to cell phone photography, thanks to you i learned about photography and how to properly use my d3400. I would love to get back into the camera world, maybe via the mirrorless route, hopefully soon. All the best for 2023, looking forward to the new content
Thanks for the post/feedback:). I have been using my cell more and more for photography, however I there are many advantages for a larger sensor ... more to come as I take a deeper dive:).
Welcome back, sir!
Great to see you again Mark, looking forward to the next set of videos
Welcome back ! 🎉
Woah you are back! I remember watching your videos/reviews to help me decide
Loooking forward to your 2023 videos
Happy new year!
Thanks for the post Ralph and glad to be of help! :) I am back and plan to post more videos soon - stay tuned! :)
All the best to you as well.
I gave up on cellphones because they always break down beyond repair. The trouble is that that is done by design to sell more phones. So why would anybody invest in such a scam?
Looking forward to seeing you video's
Thanks Rudy ... stay tuned as I have more on the way! :)
Glad to hear things are well with you! I made the switch from my d5600 to a D780 and love it! I Hope Robert’s continues supporting your channel! I entered several shots into their gallery night contest last year and had one chosen to be displayed at the store. Can’t wait to see your new content!
That is awesome Matt and congrats! I believe their downtown location is surviving but not certain to what extent.
Good to see you back, Mark. Happy New Year to you and yours.
Thanks Tom and same to you and your family:).
Your tutorial helped me so much and now I'm pro photographer thnku so much 🙏❣️ love from india ❤️❤️
Awesome and glad to be of help! :)
What’s up! Great teacher!
Thank you my friend! :)
Good to see you again
Great to see you again sir.
Your contents help me a lot. Have a wonderful new year 2023.
Look forward to your content again.
Welcome back fellow hoosier
Thank you Mickey and nice to see another hoosier on the channel! :)
Happy new year to you and your family 😇
Thank you and same to you and yours! :)
Glad to see you're back and healthy! Do you think the d3400 is still a good camera?
Thanks for the post! :) Ahhhh yes, the trusty D3400! I still have mine today and it is relatively solid given all the adventures I put the it through. I like the camera and feel the sensor is still relevant today:).
@@RealWorld thanks! When it stops being relevant could you make a video pointing to a good replacement?
I would take the D3400 over the D3500 if given the choice:). They both share the same sensor, however the D3500 is mission a couple of basic features found on the D3400 (i.e. a function button and remote shutter sensor).
Looking forward to videos from you
Thanks for the post Andrew! :) I have a few in the works now and plan to have more on the way ... stay tuned! :)
am waiting for new videos about how to take good photos with a basic DSLR
That is where I started and have given thought to resurrecting the same ... stay tuned as I may return to the basics:).
I wonder why phones are better processing photos than real cameras. It feels a shame.
