I must say that was good that you explained the camera settings as most of us angler's don't understand stuff like that good vid
Unless your very old then you don’t have to know how to use one your on UA-cam there probably hundreds of thousands of tutorials on here
Just to clear any confusion with your viewers re your camera settings ,, you are not setting your exposure to negative 2 stops as you have said in the video, but have set the exposure to 2/3rds of 1 stop which is a huge exposure difference. A negative exposure setting will help eliminate any blown out background highlights, i normally start with 1/3rd negative & then consult the histogram & adjust as required. Hopefully your video will encourage others to embrace self take photography. Well done.
Another top quality video, cheers 🎣🎣
mate absolutely mint I've been looking for a self take tutorial spot on helped me a lot
Good video! I used to use an intervalometer (wired) myself but lately i’m using one of those paddles from Rhino. With this you can choose the exact moment to release the shutter. To be honest the constant clicking with the intervalometer made me kinda nervous. The paddle takes care of this and saves me deleting lots of pictures of me in awkward positions trying to hold a fish for the camera. :)
Great tips!
Nice video Rob. Could maybe have done more on focusing as this is an area people seem to struggle with on self takes.
Great video 👍👏
Superb Rob good catch of remark?🎣🎣👌
Nice vid
So do you leave the lens on auto focus?
Pretty close to how I do mine. I just interval my whole photo sessions and dont bother with countdowns etc. A couple of years ago I used to use remotes and timers and so on but intervals and continious shooting is a far better option. I also almost only use primes but that in itself is to make it harder for yourself but I prefer to risk it for better bokeh. The easiest way is obviously to use wide angle lenses in order to always get sharp photos and easy framing but it's not as nice to look at unless you get off by watching blown up carps.
Hi what settings do you use for night time shots
Anyone know the landing matt he uses, is it the aqua deluxe?
this is not the greatest way but not the worst.
i started by just videoing off my phone on a tripod and screenshotting the pictures later that worked really well.
now i have a very expensive cannon camera with lenses and external flash. i also have go pros around my rods to film takes.
I use the same camera and weirdly, same tripod. I use a Canon 28mm F/ 1.8 lens - smaller, lighter and very fast - perfect for self takes and it doesn't need the flash in low light. I just wouldn't bother with an Intervalometer, an old device that you simply don't need with a modern DLSR and all you're doing is over-complicating things by using one. Just use the remote fob - it'll refocus every time you press it and I hold mine in the hand that supports the carp's head. Really simple and effective, with you having full control of when you want to take the shot. No faff at all. I do almost all my fishing on my own, so self takes are second nature.
What is this tripods name?
@@jacekczogalla8641 Brian !!😂😂
I used to have a remote fob with my previous camera, and to be honest it could be awkward at times using that with a lively Kipper in my hands, i also thought it looked unsightly in the photos. I now use an intervalometer and i do prefer it. Each to their own though.
Yes such a shame he didn't go into more details on the focus and iso settings.
Hopefully in the future they will do more of an in depth video on more advanced settings.
It seemed like a very rushed video to me.
@@jacekczogalla8641 It's a Velbon mini. Exactly the same as the one I use. Folds down small enough to stash it with your bank sticks or tuck into a small rucksack or carryall. Nice and light too, as well being sturdy enough to support a pro size DLSR.
Great video Rob. Straight to the point. Clear and easy to understand 👊👊 @WHATEVER_NEXT89
Grate video but what about the people that dont have and cant afford a camera and just have a phone ??
What is the F stop on this lens?
F4
What about the iso settings?.
Set it to auto with an 800 max so it doesn’t go grainy. You can get away with higher iso the more expensive your camera but rule of thumb is as low as you can get away with
@@trugman1 thank you so much I will have a play with the camera 👍
Higher ISO will build up grain/noise in your photo. Especially over dark parts. Depending on your camera it will be more or less sensitive. Generally, you want to take photos with as low ISO as possible (100 in most cases) in order to get as crisp and noise-less images as possible. However, as light varies you will sometimes have to sacrifice noise level for shutter speed in order to get sharp photos that otherwise would have been either too dark or have movement blur from a slow shutter.
So all in all, ISO depends on your light level and what lenses and apartures your'e shooting with.
Thank you guys much appreciated.
1 more question, what settings do you have your shooting mode on, single shot or continuous?
@@techd4743 if you're using intervalometer you decide precisely how often your camera shoots. In my case I often go 3 seconds in between shots.
Let’s be honest that’s by far an expensive camera set up, for those not that into cameras and lenses I’ve taken many good self takes with just my iPhone with face forward mode so you can see yourself on the phone and timer setting using a cheap telescopic selfie stick.
I use my phone the normal way round (with a phone holder on a bank stick adapter) and take some test shots without the fish to test the framing first. It's a higher-quality resolution than the front-facing camera. I turn on Voice control on my iPhone and with the camera app open I say "Turn volume down" and it takes the picture (yes, I know that's sounds weird, but it works). For night shots, I have two cheap 96 LED lights from Amazon on bank sticks angled 45 degrees to the side pointing at the fish over the unhooking mat.
True... but if you really want the best possible images, no iPhone can touch a good DLSR and lens. I have an iPhone 11Pro Max and it is good, but I'd only use that as a last resort for a self take. Each to their own, but you only have to look at most people's phone pictures of carp and err... if they're happy with them, I guess no argument.
@@luciussander8217 Sure, of course. Just suggesting a somewhat improved use of a phone. Not everyone can afford a DSLR. I have a camera too but when travelling ultralight I revert to carrying my phone setup. I’m honestly not THAT bothered about the highest quality as I’m not going to send photos for printing/publishing.
many of the tips he gave you can use on any camera. Even cellphones. You wont get the same result though.
Mobile phone with £20 tripod of ebay 👌
Exactly mate :) decent phones nower days have brilliant cameras. I have a s21 ultra the camera is ridiculously good 👍
@@FamasLy a DSLR pisses all over any mobile phone on the market
@@samwright8559 well i doubt many people car afford a decent camera so your points totally irrelevant
@@FamasLy but people are still happy enough to pay silly money a month for a contract phone when you could go and get a DSLR on finance for around 40-50 a month rather then having the newest iPhone or whatever
Very good demonstration but 1300 quid just for the body!!!!
Bottom of the range cameras are it’s the same process. If you’re on a budget you’re actually better off spending money on a good prime lens than a good camera body
@@trugman1 Spot on. Lens is more important than the camera it sits on. I use a 28mm prime for self takes, it's not an L series lens which cost a couple of grand, but the image quality is very close to one.
@@luciussander8217 I use a 50mm prime on a crop sensor camera for most of my photography. It’s like using an 80mm lens, and your sensor is picking up light from the better glass in the middle of the lens so you get a very good quality photo for cheapish kit.
yeah i’ll just go to my money tree and grab 1k off it now 🤣
I'm new to photography and for a basic DSLR, memory card, intervolemter and padded bag cost me around £400-450 you don't need a top of range fancy camera mate a budget DSLR with a good lens will take as good of a photo as a £1000 one will, it's how it's used that matters 👌🏻
Not everyone carries a camera . Do one with a phone .
Just set your phone camera up on voice controls, put it on a few buckets and lean it against ya wallet. Costs fack all
And takes a shit picture compared to a digital camera 🤣
Just another bs recommendation to new anglers just get your iPhone a bait bucket and 1kg of bollies as I do to rest your phone against the bag then put it to video and test the space where your putting your cradle or mats by moving the bag of bait and looking at the screen then once happy out the bait back click record and then go to the video and take screenshots where you like the angles the most
Some ones angry they haven't got a DSLR 🤣
@@samwright8559 angry haha nah you’d be the angry one when you pay hundred+ for a camera and don’t even have a fish to capture
@@royals7045 don't catch fish lol okay pal want me to leave my social media links for you?
