    There is a ton of people tryin to explain this basic triangle on the youtube, but I have never seen it done with such a professional way and at the same time funny and human way. Huge thanks I enjoy your work a lot. Just bought the XT20 yesterday (my first mirrorless camera)!

    @Ex4ltation 7 років тому +43

    Even though i already watched my fair share of videos explaining the basics of properly using your camera, this one did one of the best, (if not the best) job at comprehensively unfolding all of the mysteries, which lay behind taking some nice pictures.
    Really well done!
    And im looking forward to my XT-20, just have to save some more money (poor college student checking in).
    Probably gonna get it in silver tho ;)

    Move auto mode selector lever off auto. Turn shutter speed to your chosen shutter speed, or, for time exposures move to "t" (or B if you have a way of keeping shutter open) On "t" the front command dial is used to choose the aperture, and the rear dial the shutter speed (up to 30 seconds).

    Hi Omar,
    Now, over a year later, Adobe has released it's major update with profiles for both Lightroom and ACR. This makes it all the more sensible to shoot in Raw since then you can choose any Fujifilm X-film sim after the fact. You can choose each and anyone of them as a profile. But only in Raw, not in JPEG.

      Shutter priority can be achieved by placing the switch on the shutter dial off Auto and choosing a shutter speed from the dial.

    • @fluoricath
      @fluoricath 4 роки тому

      Just set your top left dial to "S" and your front kinda switch to "M", and voila! You get the full control of your gear. Even you can use manual lens like meike or 7artisans in manual mode. Just make sure you have turn on the option "shoot without lens" in your menu.

    Just bought the x-t20 to replace my old Sony Nex-5T and all the lenses which were stolen this summer. I've been researching cameras for the past several months and have been up in the air between the Fuji X-T100, the Canon M50, and Sony A6300, but I found the x-t20 with the 16-50 and 50-230 kit lenses at the Navy Exchange for an incredible price, so I went with it. I shoot mostly stills of my family and vacation pics. I'm concerned I'm going to miss having an all in one super zoom like I had with the Sony (18-200) - I generally used the 16-50 kit lens or 30 prime indoors and always just kept the 18-200 on outside and for travel. A good auto mode is important for me for when I hand the camera to my wife or daughter (which all of these cameras seem to have). Still not sure I made the right choice between this and the Canon m50; Canon's 18-150 is much more affordable than Fuji's 18-135 and has a little more range. I also like the focal length, speed, and price of Canon's 22mm pancake over Fuji's 27mm pancake. I shoot mostly jpeg, so that was the main reason I went with the Fuji - skin tone colors/AWB (which I never liked on the Sonys I had or a Panasonic GX85 I tried) and what I read were Fuji's great higher ISO look for indoor pics. I really don't care about 4k video or the flip up screen on my camera, so that's not important either way. I watched several of your videos while I was deciding which camera to get; your videos are fantastic. Love your sense of humor. Also love how you provide so much great, basic photography instruction in an easy to understand way that never feels like you're talking down to those of us who are just learning; you have a gift for teaching! I unpacked the X-T20 last night and played with it some. I loved how it looks and feels and the fantastic attention to detail Fuji paid in packaging and what was included (love the leather grip, two nice straps, and big felt camera pad that came with Fuji - very classy touches, Fuji). But as soon as I tried shooting with it, I was immediately regretting my decision because I couldn't figure out how to get the camera in P or A mode (I know that's what instruction manuals are for, but my wife was telling me it's Valentine's Day so put down the instruction manual - that almost feels like a Michael Scott Office joke in the making). Glad I thought to go back to UA-cam this morning and look through your videos and found this gem. Still not sure if I'm going to keep the Fuji or return it for the M50, but your videos are excellent! Please keep up the great work!

    Hi Omar, quick question. I was watching your video on Shooting Modes. When you were in M you pushed the AFL button and a set of numbers (ISO I'm assuming) came up on the right hand side of the screen; how did you get them to come up? I couldn't. PS my camera is the XT 20.

    When you're in manual mode, how do you know if everything's balanced? Are you just looking to see if the numbers aren't red? Is there somewhere you can see if it's balanced to "0"?
