    @TheMusician2796 I metered for the centre of the pano and yes some shots will be lighter, some darker. BUT the exposure on the edges will match one shot to the next and that makes a smoother blend when they are stiched.

  • @GavinHoey
    @GavinHoey  13 років тому

    @movania89 I use Photomerge, which is part of Photoshop / Photoshop Elements. It's perfect for small panoramics like this. I then ran my "Cross Process no 1" action on the pano to boost the contrast and twist the colours a little.

    @in2food The first couple were always VERY blurred, but the next couple are pretty sharp. Got to love digital SLR's

  • @GavinHoey
    @GavinHoey  13 років тому

    @rticknor No bracketing of exposure this time, but I was shooting in continuous to get sharp shots at low shutter speeds or shooting the water spalsh sequence.

    @WJFLorida 13 років тому

    @PhotoGavin Thanks! Yeah, I also keep my AF point in the center as well...but was never really sure if that was best for moving targets. Thanks again!

    @oSCRIPTo It was indeed 1/2000th of a sec. There's a link in the description to my FlickR feed. You'll find a coupke of the photos and exif data there.

    I like how you change the focus, program, exposure, modes. Good video

  • @GavinHoey
    @GavinHoey  13 років тому

    @JulieJules623 Otherwise the exposure from one shot to the next would be different and stitching the shots together might give the problem of uneven exposure across the image

  • @GavinHoey
    @GavinHoey  13 років тому

    @abercrombi803 I use evaluative metering more or less all the time.

    @mcbpete 13 років тому

    @GeorgeNathanPhotos I think it's because if he left it in AV mode the shutter speed would keep changing depending on the light levels at each position he took a photo, which would make piecing together a panorama a bit of a nightmare. Once the settings are detected by the camera you'd go into manual and dial in the settings so they'd remain locked no matter what changes in light conditions etc. there are.

    I love all your videos, but most this 15 minutes challenges. I am beggining in photography and they are a lot of help for me. You are very creative! Thank You so much I would like to see more videos and I wish to not have to take a tons of photos bbefore I have the correct one, but practice is the key.......

    @animefile2 A bit of luck and a bit of skill. When shooting a pano like this I try and keep moving subjects in the centre of each image and away from the edges.

  • @SadXAdam
    @SadXAdam 13 років тому

    @GeorgeNathanPhotos For panoramics, you want the exposure to be the same - so if he had left it in aperture priority the exposure may have changed causing in the different images looking strange when stitched together.

    Hi Gavin, brilliant video as usual. Do you use Canon's Digital Photo Professional to open your RAW photos or do you download them directly to Photoshop? Thanks

  • @dreamingtree
    @dreamingtree 13 років тому

    Gavin - Why would you need to put the camera in AP to get your exposure settings, and then set it back to manual for the panorama? BTW - Love your videos!

  • @WJFLorida
    @WJFLorida 13 років тому

    Gavin, I've always wondered... When putting your camera into Al Servo mode to follow a moving subject with continuous high speed shooting, do you also change your AF points to auto or do you leave it in a manual AF?? Thanks! Great video as always!

  • @Randolph_
    @Randolph_ 13 років тому

    Sir, good thing you didn't forgot about the 15 minutes. it's a theme park, lots of people and things going on, and the next thing you knew, you'r 1 minute or more too late. :) Nice!

  • @Aureas133
    @Aureas133 13 років тому

    Gavin, how do you like your trusty 24-105 on your new 5DII? You've shot with that lens on a cropcam for so long, I can imagine you had to take some time to get accustomed to the new field of view? The loss of tele and the gaining of (a lot of) wide angle?
    Great video BTW. You've learned me so much. I like your photoshop action pack aswell! I can reccomend it to everyone.

    Awesome video! I have a question, why do you set the camera to aperture priority get the settings and then switch to manual? If your using the same settings as aperture priority why change it? Why not just leave it in aperture priority? Thanks!

  • @Sheshader
    @Sheshader 13 років тому

    Great video, but reminds me of the last time I visited a fun-fair / amusement park with my partner. Not happy memories. We walked around for about an hour while I took photos of the various rides, but she had to warn me on several occasions that we were being eyed very suspiciously by many, many people, and not just park staff. A surprising number of people were quite verbose in their protestations and accusations, and this alone has made me VERY reluctant to do so again.

  • @jakehanson123456789

  • @Ticknorphoto
    @Ticknorphoto 13 років тому

    It sounds like you are bracketing each shot (i think i hear 3 shots each time you take a picture). was that to use later for HDR, or to make sure you get a good exposure?

  • @abercrombi803
    @abercrombi803 13 років тому

    Gavin, when you metered in Aperture mode before taking the wide shot, which metering method are you using? Having some trouble how to decide which method is best for which situation...spot, evaluative, partial, etc..

  • @SergeySkoropad
    @SergeySkoropad 13 років тому

    about the panorama, wouldn't the exposure of the picture change if you don't keep changing the settings, because when ever I try doing a panorama and not changing the setting, I always have some pictures darker or lighter than others.

    • @hudlmaniac7673
      @hudlmaniac7673 9 років тому

      titaniumsandwedge Excellent way to keep your camera secure. I'll have to invest in one of these I think. I had a look on Amazon uk and they have something similar that would fit the bill nicely I think.

    I like your 15min photo challenge, but I think this time you over saturated almost all of your pictures (the exceptions were the pictures with the kanu at ~5:40). This way the pictures look almost too unrealistic :/
