This video got added to my suggestions after watching your X100V accessories video (I just purchased one myself). I've been an amateur photographer for more than 25 years and I almost skipped over this video. But I'm so glad I did not. This is THE BEST job of explaining the exposure triangle I've ever seen (or read). I showed it to my wife who was as terrified of my X100V as my 4/3 micro and DSLRs...in under 10mins she said "OMG! I actually get it!". Nice work mate. 👍 And a here's a second thumbs-up for shooting here in Sydney. 👍😃
Thankyou so much for the kind comment! And haha, I actually wrote the script for this with my missus in mind. How can someone who has no interest in photography still be able to understand the basics without all the jargon? 🤣
This is the best explanation of the exposure triangle I’ve seen. Will be getting an X100V as my first digital camera. I’m sure I’ll refer to this video many times. Can’t wait for the camera to arrive.
I rarely comment, but man this video is great. I've shot for years and I have experimented lots with aperture and shutter speed, but ISO was always confusing. Rewatched it twice immediately!
Seriously Jay... I have a X100V and I've learned by myself how to shoot manual, but you've confirmed everything in this video. You've made it very simple... thank you, that is a very very nice helpful video, very nice of you. Thanks !
Dude! This is the best of the best video explaining the subject in a simple, easy to understand and with clear practical examples. I know, I have watched about 20 videos on this subject, 2 or 3 are really good but for me this is the best. Thank you!
I already have all of this down but your tutorial is by far the best in UA-cam, I had watched Peter McKinnon's one about this but this is just so much better.
I definitely recommend shooting in manual because YOU choose, you have total freedom of how you want the picture to look like. It might be overwhelming at first but this video explains it perfectly imo
For me ISO always take last place. I would always consider as first if I want to take an image of fixed elements or moving subjects (or some kind of movement in the picture), and from there I prioritize aperture or shutter speed. In the ideal world you would always want ISO as low as possible.
Thanks, you did a nice job of explaining shooting in manual. I shoot in manual 90% of the time and it is no dought the best way you can control the 3 elements. I've tried to teach family members how and why you would want to use manual mode. I think for some people it's just easier to shoot in A or S mode. Fuji cameras are one of the easiest to use in manual, set the manual aperture ring, and adjust the front and rear dial. I set one for shutter and the other for ISO. That said there is a place for A priority at times. The hardest thing for a new user is the thought process you outlined in the video. As a seasoned photographer, this thought process is just part of my workflow and until you understand the process you are always going to hit and miss.
Well said Mark, I think the introduction of automation in cameras came as a necessity not only for working professionals who knew everything and valued their time and money, but more for companies to target general consumers who didn't care about theory and just wanted to see good results quickly. Granted this was all during the time before mobile phones had decent cameras. Nowadays we are starting to see people, the younger generation especially, trying to differentiate themselves from automation by going back to fully manual film cameras, appreciating photography more for the 'experience' of the process rather than the result. I can only imagine the day when we can capture photos with a blink of our eyes and photo editing programs become fully automated and produce the best results without us lifting a finger. The latter has already started, but hey, what a time to be alive.
@@JayRegular Yes, just about any skilled photographer can create stunning images with just about any camera. I started in digital from the beginning, remember 1.5 megapixels with about 2-second shutter delay? Wow, we are lucky!
Thank for you for another informative video. Appreciate the pacing, quality of information and great editing. It's also awesome to see an Asian Australian putting out great quality video content on UA-cam. Can I ask/recommend/nag you to do a detailed video on the different shooting modes? Covering AF-C, AF-S and AF-M. Keen to see how you work with and apply the different functions on the X100V. Keep up the great work Jay. Genuine fan of what you're doing and encourage you to keep it up.
Thankyou for the kind words and support Mr. Quach! Yes I will be covering the different shooting modes for the X100V and a lot more! there will be a lot of topics to cover for this camera, and I will come around to addressing them over time!
Thank you for this. I want to start relying less on auto on my X100V. I’m not a technical person but you made it all seem so simple. Time to practise now!
This helps a lot especially for beginners like me！ The case by case explaination helps to understand why some of my pictures were blurry due to shaky hands
Nicely explained. However, why would you shoot manually with all the smart gear that is available nowadays. It might be useful for landscape photography and for not moving subjects when you have planty of time.
It's very ingenious of you to use your running hand for demonstrating the differences in slow and fast shutter speeds, while tripodding your camera to make all other conditions equal. Many instructors are complacent to just show you photos taken with different shutter speeds. Congratulqtions, Jay. You've done a nice work here that benifits many! 👍
I bought an udemy course on the exposure triangle.. this one blows it out of the water, is an hour shorter, much more engaging and easily understandable. I feel dumb now. Thank you, really!
Every previous time I’ve read up on th exposure triangle it makes my head spin and my eyes cross…except for now. Your explanation was clear and insightful. Thank you so much!
Had photography class in university and all that explained but very poorly, found myself taking photos and having to ask more expericenced friends for help because of how lost I was!! This finally explained it to me clearly, thank you so much!
What a video! I've had an X100f and didn't now how to use it, now I have a Xpro 2 and am determined to learn and use it. Best video on how to learn the exposure triangle!

Best video on youtube explaining the exposure triangle. !!! Much appreciated
Simple and clear. A very good job of explaining for all those who want to understand how it works.
Thankyou Christian!
This is the best explanation of the exposure triangle I’ve seen. Will be getting an X100V as my first digital camera. I’m sure I’ll refer to this video many times. Can’t wait for the camera to arrive.
Excellent method for learning to use Manual mode. Thumbs up and Thanks!
I rarely comment, but man this video is great. I've shot for years and I have experimented lots with aperture and shutter speed, but ISO was always confusing. Rewatched it twice immediately!
Wow learned a lot. I just got my x100v can’t wait to use it

I couldn’t agree more. It’s perfect. Well done Jay.
So informative 👌🏻 Im waiting on my x100v which will be my first camera. This video is saved !
Did you get it or still waiting?😂
I already have all of this down but your tutorial is by far the best in UA-cam, I had watched Peter McKinnon's one about this but this is just so much better.
Congratulations, my man. This is the best triangle explainer video I've seen. And I've seen plenty. Thank you so much.

Very well done, thanks.
I wish I had this video when I was first getting into photography, you’re good at explaining!
Thank you! I made this video also because I wished someone had explained this to me simply when I first started learning photography!
so adorable little running hand lollllllll
It's not a tutorial if it doesn't include some cool hand action right? 😂
Great video, thanks for you job 😉👊🏻
Thankyou Marcin! 🙏

@@JayRegular @D Quach yes please i would like to know how to use the different shooting modes too the AF C AF S AFM ones
one of the best explanation information, thnx for this good job
Probably the best and most underrated video on basics of manual photography!!!Love every bit of this video.
Been understanding this concept for several years and I just fully understood it now. Thanks for this ❤
Best teaching of photography
Even though I learned that over 40 years ago with a K1000, it was nice to see it presented again while I had a bowl of pasta. Thank you!
this is the best explanation of exposure triangle in youtube. thanks
Thank you for this. I want to start relying less on auto on my X100V. I’m not a technical person but you made it all seem so simple. Time to practise now!
Awesome video and commentary 👌
A well-structured video, thanks.
So much value on this video! Thank you
I think if everyone had a chance to shoot with an old 35MM film camera it makes everything much more straightforward.
that is very true, no way of cheating with analogue
Best tutorial u can find on UA-cam, end
Thank you so much for this ! Very informative, yet in a simple and approchable way !
First time I understood this. It's that good.
Bro, can you make fuji x100v video settings tutorial? Nobody made it yet 🙁
Thank you for this breakdown! Sharing it to all my beginner friends.
Top man. Your videos are really very helpful and are some of the best on the internet. Thanks for taking the time to do these and share your passion.
That's huge compliment Stephen! Thankyou so much 🙏🙏
A really, really helpful video for a beginner photographer!
Thank you!
This cleared up a lot uncertainty for me. Thanks!
Thanks very clear and precise presentation for understanding the element controls. Thanks
ur a great teacher, thank you for explaining so clearly
Thank you Jay this was clear and concise. A master class 👏
WOW thanks so much for this great introduction into photography! It was so easy to understand.
Thank you so much for this video, it's incredibly helpful for an amateur like myself 😀
This is awesome Jay, thank you so much! You explain it so well.
Interesting, of the three elements the results appear on the screen a new thing for me.
You man this was fantastic! I do have questions though. Do you have a social media?
Just Instagram, it's in my video description 👍
Well done. I am sending this video to my friend who wants to learn photography and is thinking of getting the x100v as well.
thanks for sharing Patrick!
Such a good explanation! Thank you for making this!!
Holy hecka, super helpful video man!
This helps a lot especially for beginners like me！ The case by case explaination helps to understand why some of my pictures were blurry due to shaky hands
well explained thankyou ♥
Oh thank you so much, this is a godsend for such a dummy like me
Amazing tutorial thank you so much
Thank you so much ! You made things clear
Awesome. Thank you!
Awesome explanation , Loved it !!
wow this was great!
it has never been so clear as this video thank you!
Excellent explanation in demonstration!
Nicely explained. However, why would you shoot manually with all the smart gear that is available nowadays. It might be useful for landscape photography and for not moving subjects when you have planty of time.
There aren't many use cases where you would be shooting full manual these days. It's more about understanding the concept of photography
It's very ingenious of you to use your running hand for demonstrating the differences in slow and fast shutter speeds, while tripodding your camera to make all other conditions equal. Many instructors are complacent to just show you photos taken with different shutter speeds. Congratulqtions, Jay. You've done a nice work here that benifits many! 👍
Haha had to get creative during the covid lockdowns
@@JayRegular Ultimate positivity/positivism that is! 👍
so so helpful!! thank you 🙏🏻
Thanks. You made it so easy to understand.
glad it helped!
Excelent. Thanks.
You explained to me better in 10min than anybody else in several hours :)
It doesn't matter how long you have been playing with cameras, this is still relevant and well instructed. Nice job, Jay.
Thank you so much for this video. Very fundamental. Things I’ve forgotten since I’ve been reliant on Aperture/Shutter priority. :)
Thanks for simplifying this concept and making it easier to understand! Very helpful :D
I bought an udemy course on the exposure triangle.. this one blows it out of the water, is an hour shorter, much more engaging and easily understandable. I feel dumb now. Thank you, really!
Thank you for making this video. This is far the most clear explanation I have seen on shooting manual. Thank you again for your effort.
Every previous time I’ve read up on th exposure triangle it makes my head spin and my eyes cross…except for now. Your explanation was clear and insightful. Thank you so much!
Very helpful thank you Im currently waiting on my x100v to arrive
It finally makes sense!! 😌 Best video out there, thank you!!!!
Just got the X100V & this video is very helpful ! Thanks
Fantastic video. It was the perfect refresher for this amateur photographer. Thank you
Thank you Thank you! Subscribed and Liked the video!
I'm a beginner. So THANK YOU for that.
Had photography class in university and all that explained but very poorly, found myself taking photos and having to ask more expericenced friends for help because of how lost I was!! This finally explained it to me clearly, thank you so much!
Simple and effective, thanks for sharing!
the only video iv watched about shooting manual that i was able to follow and learn from! very well made! TYSM
Going back to basics of photography. Thanks for all these reminders Jay.
What a video! I've had an X100f and didn't now how to use it, now I have a Xpro 2 and am determined to learn and use it. Best video on how to learn the exposure triangle!
I was so close to returning my camera, but after watching your video now I know how to work it.
Brilliant - such a good explanation! Thanks
Thank you so much❤️
One of the best tutorial, I switched from Nikon DSL and I was lost with new sittings 😅
Thanks for putting this so easy for a beginner like myself
Awesome video man. Best explanation I’ve ever heard.
Thanks you so much for sharing your knowledge
Aperture also affects image quality in terms of sharpness since lenses can be less or more sharp at different apertures.
GREAT video instruction. Thank you.
OMG! you made it so clear to someone who has no idea about photography but wants to learn like me! THANKS… 😍
Thanks for the kind words! Glad it helped 🙏
Very well explained. Thank you.
Thankyou Brian!
Wonderfully explained 👌🏼
No better explanation than this ❤ . Clear yet simple n easy to digest… Thanks bro
Great information! Just stepping into photography and this helps a ton.
Great video...Thanks!
well i dont get youre saying on 7:48, you have only iso left as an option. actually what about the exposure button? you cd have used that or not ?
Thank you - clear and very helpful 🙏😎
