    I’m lucky enough to have owned a Hasselblad 500cm for the last 15 years. This camera has taught me so much.
    In terms of hand held shooting: steady you body against something (rock, tree, wall, whatever); if there’s nothing around, then think about kneeling like a soldier with a gun, or sitting down; compose your shot; take a deep breath and hold it; and slowly squeeze the shutter, as jabbing at it will cause a lot of shake.
    I greatly enjoy your videos. My favourite was Buttermere, as I used to live a few miles from there. My dream house is the white house in your photo.
    Keep up the good work

      No, slowly exhale as you press the shutter release! Holding ones breath will cause minor body trembling. It’s a fact, not my opinion. Cheers

    A good thing about handheld shooting is that you can shoot in the moment. I often find that the more I think about the image (composition, focal lenght and such), the more it sort of slips away.

  • @MikeNelsonPedde
    @MikeNelsonPedde 3 роки тому +1

    Composition, even in handheld photography is important. When shooting handheld, especially with longer exposures, there are two things to consider. One is that you need to allow time AFTER making the exposure. If you're in a hurry you line up, mash the shutter button down, swing away and move on to the next image. Except, you get home and discover that your image is marred by motion blur. Now, if you were shooting large format film photography you'd be looking at 30+ minutes for EACH image, but we don't need to go there. Still, line up your image, press the shutter button GENTLY, and hold your position for a second or two. THEN move on. If you're using a slow shutter speed, it can also be beneficial to shoot 2-3 images and choose the sharpest one from the group.
    The second thing when shooting handheld is to use the viewfinder rather than the LCD. Don't believe me? Pick up something heavy - a bag of potatoes for example - and hold them out at arm's length. Hold it there for as long as you can until you feel like your arms are about to fall off. Now, try the same thing with the bag hugged to your chest. Any difference? You bet. Your steadiest position is with your camera tight to your body mass, arms tucked in, and with your body side-on to your subject - like a boxer's stance. It's not always possible - crouched by a stream for example, or holding your camera a few inches above the ground to shoot flowers - but camera tight in to the body, arms tucked in and side-on to the subject is the steadiest position you can create. If you don't believe me, ask Joe McNally. Besides (as photography great Michael Reichmann once said), you won't look like you're holding an infant with a dirty diaper... 😮

  • @kwchalky02
    @kwchalky02 3 роки тому +17

    Like someone else said I think using the viewfinder helps with stability, because you can anchor into your body. The further out you hold the camera the more susceptible to shake. I'm comfortable shooting a quarter of a second no problem, sometimes slower, but obviously it depends how many effective stops your particular camera gives you as well as how steady you can hold. There is a skill and worth practicing.
    Never occured to me that anyone would think less about the composition because of how the camera was supported! I guess it goes back to the "handheld shots are just snapshots whereas tripod shots are real photography' view, which I don't agree with.
    Once again you got some nice photos there. I like the first one particularly.
    Enjoyed your video. Cheers. 👍

      @@markhoffman9655 I just started learning the EM-1 mk3 and with 40-150mm f/2.8 I was taking images in the ambient light of our home, ISO 400-800 and was taking images at 1/5 and 1/6 and was amazed that there were very few misses (pixel peeping at 1:1). The IBIS and technique are key and I use EVF tucked into my eye - not hold out shooting off the LCD. And most of those shots were 200-300mm FOV. Amazing! I'm certain I could not do the same with my Nikon D5, nor Nikon Z7. It was just testing and exploring, but was pretty cool to do.

    Consider yourself incredibly fortunate to live within short reach of such unspoiled and photogenic landscapes. It still takes talent and creativity to capture it but you do appear to have some nice choices. I reside in the U.S. and in our Midwest -my backyard - it can be tough to find any comparable, rolling terrain. That said, I must accept it as another challenging element of landscape photography. Hey, I'm no quitter. Ha! Keep up the good work. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

    In September of 2019 my wife and I went to Ireland and Scotland. One day we were at Muckross Abbey and for some ridiculous reason I left my tripod in the car, I think was thinking it's daytime I wont need it. At the Abbey I saw this beautiful scene looking down a dark "hallway" with light coming through some archways...did I mention it was dark? I ended up bumping my ISO to 2000 (still very usable with my D750) and had a .6 second exposure (with VR)...you read that right... .6 seconds! I took about 9 frames and got one that was tack sharp. Handheld I feel is a lost art. Great video and I look forward to the next one.

    Just come across your channel and love your attitude and content.
    Like you I have always used a tripod and am just starting to go handheld. My mate is a wedding and newborn photographer and she always says I have so much patience and plan my photos way better than her.. she never uses a tripod. I guess a lot of that is what we shoot, mine is landscapes where I wait for a particular cloud to come into frame or wait for the sun to appear from behind a cloud. She on the other hand has to capture the babies smile or a moment at a wedding. We shoot together occasionally and she loves it because she says I slow her down and can think about what she is shooting.
    I recognised a lot of me in what you were saying.
    Thank you

    At last a landscape photographer who doesn't use a tripod! hoorah! I hate tripods. I agree 100% that we need to think about lines and frame etc. That is why I DONT use a tripod - because I end up setting it up in completely the wrong place. Whereas hand-held lets me move a few inches here and there. Also agree with hand held pano shots -it just takes practice. Also a photographer who uses the rear LCD yes, yes, yes becaise it allows us to put the camera in awkward angles without having to look thro the viewfinder. Ive got cateract and suffer eyestrain so I dont use the viewfinder. Great pics, great videos. Thanks.

    I just stumbled upon your channel by accident and I am glad I did. I subscribed before even finishing the first video. I love your enthusiasm and agree wholeheartedly that photography makes you look at the world differently. There's beauty to be found everywhere. While I live in a suburban setting outside of New York City and don't have the beautiful natural setting you have, hardly a day goes by when I don't discover some other place to photograph. My late parents were artists and captured the world on canvas while I attempt to do the same using my cameras; I learned composition, technique and most certainly patience from them. Keep making these great videos. I look forward to more virtual travels and of course hope to pick up a few pointers from a fellow photography enthusiast.

    Tripod goes up when composition it’s well known and weather making epic

    Henry, I am 83 yo maybe that is why I shake so easy. but I have found a way to keep my camera steady. With the camera in my right hand I place my left hand onto my right shoulder, then I place my camera on top of my left arm. This is much steadier for me,and I can still move up down left and right. I do all my camera settings before I do my cross arm method, and "hey presto" it works for me.

    Hi Henry. Since your last video I was out with my wife with time at a premium. I took my DSLR + nifty fifty and I have a massive confession to make; I set my DSLR to full auto!!!!! However, this helped me concentrate on the composition without any 'technical' stuff. The freedom this gave me was fantastic and I also started to use Program mode as well for a wee bit more flexibility. Worth bearing in mind for us photographers that these often forgotten modes are so brilliant and easy to use.

    Only just discovered your channel. I've been taking photographs for 60 years and am still learning. I use a D7500 along with a dinky little Fuji X-Q2 (full manual available and creates raw files). I don't have your eye for a composition but one thing you may have missed with your Canon is that so far as depth of field is concerned you can use larger apertures on smaller sensors. I reckon somewhere between f4 and f5.6 on my Fuji gives me about the same as f11 on my D7500.

    I love shooting challenging images handheld even if I end up doing my final image on a tripod. I once shot a lowlight scene with my Nikon Df, it looked dark and a bit of a delete job. I pushed it into Lightroom, and twiddled with it, and what emerged is still one of my most favourited images of all time. You just never know. The tripod versions just did not have the same look as what emerged from the shadows in post processing. What I would say is the Df has the most amazing dynamic range of almost every camera I have ever used. It's why I will not rush to sell it.

    Henry. Excellent work. Beautiful area around where you live. Big fan.
    Anyway was curious about your technique used in this video (and others), specifically your camera settings. I know you’re shooting manual but are you in complete manual (shutter speed, f-stop and ISO) all being “set” by you or are you shooting with Auto ISO and manually choosing shutter and f-stop depending on your desired outcome? I shoot a lot in manual mode (f-stop/shutter speed) but let camera choose ISO (I’m using a Nikon D500). I’ll adjust my manual settings to achieve best output (shoot RAW). And I’m a big fan of handheld shooting if I can get away with it. Thanks.

    I know you don't use a strap but when not using the viewfinder, one thing I do is keep the camera strap taut (while around my neck) when holding the camera in front of me and use that force of almost pulling the camera in front of me to steady the camera. So do you think the M50 could take the place of your Nikon D7200?

    @steveboys5369 3 роки тому

    More great stuff Henry, thanks. A few tips I was given about shooting hand held ( when Noah was still running around in short trousers ) before you take the shot, breathe out and hold, it aids your body to be still. Strangely breathing in and doesn't work anything like so well. Also try to get the camera relatively close to your body so it is more stable. Its a great idea is you have good eyes and can see the focus properly, but not so great if you're a coffin dodger like me. For my next birthday I either need better specs or longer arms, so probably back to the tripod for me until then .. Keep up with the exercise Henry, you're keeping us all sane!

    Have you tried using ND Grads and polarizers handheld? That's when I give up and pull out the tripod! But for non-filter photos handheld usually works.

    Hi Henry Great photos. You always seem to inspire me to go out to a place that I have been to before but to take photos. Love it.

    Another cracking video Henry! I was impressed how well the pano turned out.Just wish we could have a dusting of snow down here in Hampshire to give us a different outlook on our landscape.Mind you,they do say be careful for what you wish for!

    Have you ever considered giving a monopod a go. Would double up as a walking aid through those fells and give some extra stability to those hand held shots. I use mine to give elevation to my shots, at full stretch I can have my camera roughly 9ft above ground.

    Great video, enjoyed that. I'm kind of the opposite really, most of my photography is hand held while hiking for convenience. I do miss the tripod, but I think it's great to shoot both with and without.

    I go handheld shooting with a Sheltie leash in my last hand and my camera in my right. Try doing that and get clear shots. Somehow, I do.

    Great fun video! What brand of gloves do you use? I live in the Portland, Oregon area and we don't get a lot of snow. It can be several years between snowfall at the lower elevations. Last weekend we got snow down below the 500 foot level, so I went out into the Columbia River Gorge to find some photos. The short story is that I ended up with minor frostbite in my fingers due to not having proper gloves for photography. So I can be prepared for next time it snows, I would be happy to hear about the gloves you, or any of your followers, use. Thanks!

    You're doing well Henry - keep up the good work and you'll be finding it second nature to get the shots handheld.
    I've often done a 12 shot (2x6 landscape shots on top of each other) pano hand held and it's all in the stitching software that makes the difference.
    Looking forward to your next outing!

    Shoot handheld when you can. Tripod when there is a distinct advantage in doing so (in the context of an image that makes it worth the effort/time).

    Weird idea? I did a vertical panoramic of the highest waterfall in Wales - it worked, took about 2 seconds I guess, fully handheld

    After 20 years i am turning back to an old hobby: photography. So last few days reading a lot about systemcamera's. And then UA-cam thought it was a good idea to watch your video's ‼️ and yes it is 😃
    (Think i will go for the Canon EOS RP with 35MM lens.)
    Bye 👋

      @@HenryTurnerphoto when you consider that the pixel pitch (centre to centre distance from one pixel to the next) of a camera sensor is measured in single digits of microns, it is MIND-BLOWING to me when someone who doesn't use a tripod wants higher megapixels. There is ALWAYS going to be a blur across a few pixels when handheld, ALWAYS, and moving to more MPs means NO DIFFERENCE in quality at all, in most cases, without also moving to using a stiff, pro-quality tripod and self-timer or remote shutter release for landscapes.
