    AF-S is good for focus and recompose type of shots, also keep in mind that focusing in the center of the lens produce the best results, the edges are not that perfect.

    Thank you very much for this short and sweet video...
    I am learning photography and I was invited to a graduation and I had a really bad time trying to get moving people in focus, before watching this video I was thinking that my mistake was using a low ISO and a slow shutter speed (I changed that later even if high ISO would introduce noise but at least I was using 1/60 shutter speed for most people and I even set it higher in some occasions)...
    But right now that I watched this little yet simple explanation of the focus modes I discover another big mistake I did... I use a Canon EOS M5 and I deactivate the SERVO option which is the focus mode for moving objects (besides the continuous focus in the main setting) and that is why I was struggling with people moving and getting blurry (yes... I was trying to 1-Point focus all the time with my finger, for the time I had everything tweaked people just moved)....
    I test a little bit with that and that improves the shoots a lot (moving conditions of course).

    I've been using mostly AF-S mode. I'm trying to learn how to take photos more manually, as well as straighten my horizon. Your videos have been helping. I just got my first Digital SLR a few weeks ago. I got a really good deal from an elder man, and he gave me an even better deal because I told him I was planning on taking courses. Super kind gentleman. Thank you for sharing your tips with us. 😊

    DMF with the adjustable focus centre for static objects. C1 button set to bring up the adjustment setting. It took a long time to figure the C1 setting out. It enables you to keep on looking and readjust this focuspoint. Or.. for moving objects like lemons😬 or birds bees and other animals AF-C with shutter release activation. With adjustable focus centre

    You caught me using AF-A as a standard setting. However I play around with flexible spot as well as AF-C trying to catch some birds. But I dont get them in focus yet. BUT the focus FIELD with flexible fields could be the solution! I did not know that setting in my a6000! Thank you! I use this kit lense most but I also have the 55-210 3.5 I guess - the other cheap kit lense if you bought a camera set ;).
    Up to now I tried to catch the bird with focus in the middle and tried to have the bird in the middle of the picture. But I figured that AF-C does not work with focus on the middle or does it???

  • @estebancaldero8118

    For taking Normal Family Photos/ everyday photos, which focus mode is best. I assume AF-S but should you use Focus area or Focus Point??

  • @user-lx8xb1lc9c
    @user-lx8xb1lc9c 9 місяців тому

    I have been troubled by the setting of the focus area. Under what circumstances should I use the wide area, center point, expanded elasticity or fixed-point method? Because it is often out of focus, as long as it is above 10 meters, the shooting purpose is humanities and street photography. The camera is a6600 and the lens is 18-105 f4. Thank you for taking the time to teach me.

    i set to AF-C and focus area to center. When i wanna focus a subject i frame it in the center and half press, as i move along for composition it will switch to wide automatically and the camera will track it. putting it on wide will just make the AF-C focus all over the place

    Is there a way to make it that the camera focus is not all over the place? A way to make the focus calm and settle? I want it to be that when I am recording the camera is able to focus, but not get blurry in video when constantly adjusting the focus. Is there a nature way for it to look more smooth? Thank you.
