I missed a link with the light meter in the camera, which can be a great help for novices what values to choose or at least see that the values are wrong and in which direction they have to think to fix them: Too much light: perhaps increase shutter speed or aperture value, too less light: perhaps decrease shutter speed or aperture value; your video has taught them already what high/low values for these do wrt what's *on* the photo :)
Hi Anthony, very well explained! I recently had the situation that I was shooting a dinner at an event and the room was very poorly lit. So I couldn't use a flash and even at f/2.8 with a shutter of 1/40 or 1/80 I had to crank up the ISO to a degree where now I am not fully satisfied with the outcome since it's a bit too noisy for my taste. What do you recommend here?
Can you make a version of this for video instead of photo? There’s some unique challenges to video obviously like frame rate, motion blur looking natural, and you can’t denoise video nearly as much as you can do Raw photos. Then there’s native iso and histograms but that may be a little too complex for a basic video haha. Just think it would be helpful to people. 😊
Hi mate! I just have a question, when you were talking about the panning shots, i saw your headset, i know what it does, and how it works as i have used one before, but i need some, where can i get them? Thanks in advance!
Excellent video. I've been shooting for years and all of this is a great reminder that hammering down fundamentals will solve most of the problems you come across.
I learned a lot by putting my camera on full automatic and then paying attention to what ISO and shutter speed the camera wanted for every shot. This broke my habit of trying to use low ISO, as my camera was consistently telling me that a higher ISO would work well. I learned a lot from my camera just by seeing what it did with all of the exposure factors. Great video, as always 📸📸📸
While in film-school (ucla in 2000) I shoot a lot of negative film (Kodak cine) and was pushed by teachers to shoot all in 1/50 (close to 1/48) to emulate the 24fps speed, that made me really understand the f-stops (t-stops) either up or down, because while in studding film (4 years) I had to shoot all in that exact speed (I used all analog films, mostly Kodak film emulsions but cut for still cameras, so the shooting will not be as expensive as film cans) it was a very interesting exercise, of course I pushed and pulled the film all the time to get better results on very interesting emulsions, I got to play with the most interesting films (emulsions) from that era, what I want to say with this is that the more you play with different stuff and different uses on the camera, lenses, speed, t stops every part of the idea of an image, the better photographer you will become, the better understanding of the camera you will have and you will get exactly what you need in every shoot you’ll be asked to do.
All correct. A small improvement though: if you raise the ISO the sensor doesn't become more sensitive per se (as film does), you simply crank up the gain of the signal the sensor catches. That makes little difference but it explains the noise you are getting (the quality of the sensor would dictate the noise/signal ratio) at higher ISO, because you raise the gain in both. A more sensible sensor would get less noise - how so depends on factors I'm not deep enough to explain fully.
Normally if the picture is all black either you forgot the lens cap or the flash isn’t triggering. Could be a channel problem, out of range or simply discharged batteries. There is also the exposure meter. Turn knob to right to move exposure meter to the right 🙈
Another tip I'd like to add is that I'm often shooting on bright days but the subject (bird) might be in a tree so I'll have the camera on auto-ISO but I also set the exposure compensation higher. The tip is always check the exposure compensation as I've had many times where it seemed the like image was fine but after taking it the highlights were really blown out. Fortunately with the raw file I'm usually able to recover the image, but it's something I have to remind myself to check. It's also difficult to fully see the LCD screen on bright days.
I use ISO...yeah :D I only shoot manual. I started doing this on my M50, and transitioned it over to my R7. I take full control over the triangle. It takes me a while to dial in my settings, I know auto can cut down the time but I want to train my hands to make those adjustments on the fly. Its a lot of hit and misses, but most of your misses are within your first several shots of adjusting that triangle, as long as your shooting environment or subject doesn't change quickly.
Hi Anthony, I'm buying more interesting lenses & adding to my gear. I'm traveling to interesting places to photograph. How do you keep everything safe in the car, the hotel room, a restaurant etc.? Love your channel🎉
I am about to buy a s5iix or r6ii and would love for you to just tell me which one to buy. They both fit in the heads well and I can’t make up my mind!!!!
António as they say in Portuguese I am loving your videos but I would like you to make a full video with your best photo and video settings of the Canon R5 mark ii thank you my friend
Thanks. Can you please explain how to shoot with Canon in situations with a wide DR, with shades and areas exposed to direct light? If I’m not mistaken, decoupling the point on the screen where the camera evaluates the light from the focus point t is not possible on Canon prosumer cameras such as the R5 and the R6. Thanks
Is it just me or do the other videos at the top of the screen he points toward aren't there and pointing at nothing? Also Anthony, I hope you had some good food and fun when you visited Canon in my town lol
I am struggling with this video. What are the actual tips? Ypu say that fixes 90% of issues and sayikg this helped a lot of photographers. Looning at this content, it is abvious those were not photographers but people with cameras if they do not understand aperture or shutter speeds? Also, claiming priority modes somehow go haywire, which again is very rare , but showing camera in manual mode is confusing.
If you already understand how your camera works, then this video isn't for you. The advice given here may seem obvious to some more seasoned photographers, but most photographers are average everyday people who picked up a camera for fun and are just trying to understand the basic function of how to choose the right settings.
I think I’ll unsubscribe from you! You know no one is going to give their camera to you black lol that’s just a lie! Which photographer is going to do that! You always with your friends which is always shooting with you, you all are pros! lol 😂
“This situation has never happened to my simple head ass. So there’s obviously NO CHANCE that this can happen to anyone else” You hear that Damian? That’s how dumb hating wannabes sound like. That’s what YOU sound like. Delete this comment
@@daveplefka2180 that’s the problem with society nowadays if you don’t comply you are a hater! Maybe he’s talking about you! You seem like the type of guy to hand a camera to a “pro” all black screen your apurture to F22 and your speed to 1/8000 and ISO 50 lol 😂
This is just the tip of the iceberg. Let me know what other camera issues you're facing and I might make a part 2! 😊

Absolutely! Having a simple process to troubleshoot is key!
I prefer saying ISO over ISO, similar to my preference of saying Data instead of Data.
Makes sense 😂

Great video, as always 📸📸📸
This works really well. I might need to do a follow up on using your camera in Av and Tv modes outlining this method!
Super video! Im a beginner and this is definitely gonna help alot. Great content🔥
Hey man I really like everything that you upload. I would really love to meet you and learn from you. Cheers
So so helpful! Thank you 🙏
Thanks for the video❤️
Thank you so much for this Video. 🤗
this helped me so much
This video really helped me. Thank you

Great tip Anthony! I'm wondering why Shutter speed priority is "Tv" on Canon cameras.
It stands for "Time value"
Normally if the picture is all black either you forgot the lens cap or the flash isn’t triggering. Could be a channel problem, out of range or simply discharged batteries.
There is also the exposure meter. Turn knob to right to move exposure meter to the right
🙈
I like the auto iso manual hak tho. It’s my go-to. 1/50 f1.8-2.8 and auto iso.
I often shoot in aperture priority with a minimum shutter speed set.
That's a great way to do it too!
Love this style of video. Really helpful thank you

Some cameras also let you show highlight clipping! That can be very useful in this type of example!
Awesome video very helpful for me thank you so much hopefully you continue to make some more videos like this one thank you so much 😊hopefully
Great video ! It would be nice one to nail focus 📸
Did you not use Fv mode on the canon? It covers everything except bulb
Thank you for the nice video Anthony! A question, how do you read proper exposure from the light meter?
I use ISO...yeah :D
I only shoot manual. I started doing this on my M50, and transitioned it over to my R7. I take full control over the triangle. It takes me a while to dial in my settings, I know auto can cut down the time but I want to train my hands to make those adjustments on the fly.

I'll be pointing people to this one when they ask me "how do I make my photos better?"
Perfect! That's exactly what this video is for! ☺️

If I’m not mistaken, decoupling the point on the screen where the camera evaluates the light from the focus point t is not possible on Canon prosumer cameras such as the R5 and the R6. Thanks
I'm working on a similar video with some of the photos I shot last month. Should be out soon! :)
@ perfect!
Turn on your camera - great advice! Thx
No problem
I love you baby.❤❤ I am learning little by little
What are the red things Where the Camera strap often is
562K To Go

I prefer to say ISO instead of ISO.
i cannot shoot at low fstop because of fungus forming in my sensor
Is it just me or do the other videos at the top of the screen he points toward aren't there and pointing at nothing?
Also Anthony, I hope you had some good food and fun when you visited Canon in my town lol
On mobile they might not show up, but you can scroll through the description and there are 3 videos linked! 😊
