This is vintage Mike. He has always been an excellent teacher (see, for example, his vids at Avebury - before he lost weight (wish I had!) - where he does brilliant explanations of F-numbers, compression and perspective, using bicycle wheels as I recall. Great vid, thanks Mike.
Thanks. We made a bigger, better version of that old video as a lesson in the Masterclass cours. Even dug out the bicyclewheel 'Field of View' demonstrating engine again... ... MB🙏😊
Manual with spot focusing has always been my go-to mode except for on-the-fly shooting when aperture or shutter priority come in handy. Never forgetting the third part of the triangle, ISO. I do enjoy your videos, Mike.
Mike, as an ex biker (too old now) I would want to watch your biker videos even if I had no interest in photography. You have the knack of presenting information in an entertaining way that makes me want to know more. 5 stars!
Thanks again Mike for a very well explained lesson on setting changes...I still struggle with manual mode & mostly use Aperture priority to change results quickly.... just need more practical experience..... cheers from Australia 😀
You're welcom @Robert Davis. Have you checked out my Masterclass In Photography course? There are exercises and more that'll have you up and running with manual and more in no time. Link below... ... MB🙏😊www.photographycourses.biz/courses/online-photography-course
I think the biggest confusion are the 3 settings and what they do because they all do sort of the same things "in a way" when it comes to light,and it confuses people. AND then another thing is the Fstop. The higher the number the smaller the opening. the smaller number the larger opening. Its hard for people to keep that in mind.
Those creative modes on cameras don’t help a person become creative. I shoot 95% of the time in manual mode and the other 5% in aperture or shutter priority. I suspect many others could get used to manual mode pretty quickly with practice. After some time it becomes like muscle memory working the exposure triangle.
Yep - they just make life more complicated @Bruce Smith. Camera controls are really simple but the camera industry has made folks scared of them so they can sell everyone 'creative modes'. It's marketing bollocks..... MB🙏😊

Love that explanation - clear as daylight. Seen many versions of the exposure triangle, but I love the graphics of this one. Thanks.
Thanks Joe. Glad it was helpful!

They all do the same thing, brighten or darken - BUT shutter and aperture have creative superpowers too. That's why there are 3 of them 🙏😊
damn its work

But I'm not scared about using a higher ISO.
