    Chelsea & Tony Northrup teach the beginning photographers the Exposure Triangle: Aperture, Shutter Speed, and ISO. They'll teach you how to use your mirrorless camera or DSLR to set low f/stop numbers, like f/1.4, let in more light and blur the background more. They'll also teach you how to use shutter speed to hide or show motion. First, however, they'll start with the easiest setting: ISO, which controls the brightness of your image.

    Nifty Fifty to blur the background: sdp.io/fast50

    The panic and confusion on Chelsea's face at 8:03 when Tony threw over his head the lens cap is so funny.

    I've spent the last week or so explaining camera basics to a friend getting into photography, this video will be the perfect follow up and is even better than the original version on this channel that I learned from back in the day. Thanks!

    Hey guys! No video has been so singularly and instantly game-changing in my understanding of cameras and how that applies to my streaming/videos. After watching this, I went back to my set up and changed settings following your advice, which immediately improved my video quality and consistency (no more weird tonal shifts cuz the camera was auto-adjusting to whatever colour of light was shining from my monitor onto my face!). I cannot thank you enough! ^_^

    Watching this video is somewhat surreal. One of the first photography vids I ever watched was the original exposure triangle vid by T&C. Now, about three years and many, many T&C videos later, I am watching a video about something I already (mostly) understand. Thanks T&C, glad I found ya'll when I was just getting started.

  • @Lesterandsons
    @Lesterandsons 4 роки тому +2

    I'm sure someone will say iso not part of exposure so no triangle exists and iso is only gain. I'm waiting and already smiling.
    This tutorial is very helpfull to start understanding. After that you can learn ETTR... exposure vs iso

    with the same zany antics as in this video.

    i love the fraction analogy. I always forget these because in ISO a bigger number means more light in the picture but in shutter speed and aperture it's the lower numbers that are associated with more light.

    Hi Tony,
    I am Using a Sony A7 R5, FW release : 2.01 With a Sony mirror less Lens 55mm F1.8 FW release 2.0.
    Please let me know if I am doing something wrong or my expectations with Sony are misplaced.
    First my Camera Settings: - Focus mode = Continuous Focus, Focus Area = Wide, Focus , Human+Face Detection = Enabled, Exposure=Multi, Face Priority in multi = ON, Spot metering point= Focus point Linked. Shutter= 1/125, Aperture= 1.8, ISO=Auto 100 to Max.
    Here is the scenario. Subject is placed to one side (not in centre) The Center is brighter than Face of the subject. Imagine a person near a window.
    My expectation : The face will be properly exposed since exposure is Face priority and spot metering point is focus point linked and Focus point is linked to face detection.
    Actual Result : Focus is perfect but the exposure is metered from centre.
    Question : Are my settings wrong or is my camera faulty or does Sony not work as I expect.
    Many thanks

I know it doesn't really mean anything in the digital world; however, in the film days no matter where you are a 400 role of film is the same in America as it is in Australia.....although they have different systems of measurement. Just saying....😉
