How to Use Shutter Speed, Aperture and ISO For Video

- Today we talk about 3 critical video settings that you will find on almost every camera.
This video is an excerpt from my G85 Video Guide: dslr-video-shooter.thinkific.c...
Overview of the Settings:
Shutter Speed
Controls how LONG light hits the sensor each second. Also controls motion blur effects.
Saving Private Ryan is a great example of how a fast shutter speed can be used for tension.
The Bourne movies are a great example of slow shutter speeds (when Jason is dreaming/remembering his past).
180 Degree rule explanation.
Aperture
Controls how MUCH light hits the sensor. Also controls depth of field or how much of the shot is in focus.
ISO
Controls the sensitivity (brightness) of sensor. Noise can be introduced at high ISO levels so try to avoid those.
How I Use These Settings:
1) Set shutter speed for desired look (180 rule is applied when I shoot most of the time)
2) Set aperture for desired depth of field.
3) Use ISO to make final exposure changes.

I've been shooting for 3 years but I still watch some basic videos like this to make sure I'm doing it right. Thanks Caleb!
Haha! Nice.

People who do videos about video rarely discuss the basics of setting up your camera, but you just did - thanks. This is probably your most important video in quite a while. I hope your viewers will bookmark this, click the like button and share it.
I Agree
Thank you James! Means a lot!
Who needs photography school when this guy shares his knowledge so gracefully. Thanks brother. What a plus and great resource. UA-cam one of the best things to come out of the Matrix we live in today. Thanks I follow and learn something every day.
yea buddy thanks!
I’m studying filmmaking and in class I find it all so confusing! This video made it all simple;) thank you!!
Great video, helped me out heaps as a photographer going into video. 🙏🙏
oh man I couldn't imagine paying someone to teach me this
@@jake.bennett lol ikr, i learned all the basics in just a few weeks of watching youtube videos, but took photography 3 times at my school (because no other electives seemed interesting to me) and only understood anything after I taught myself via youtube.
One of the best explanations I've heard on shutter speed, aperture, and ISO. Simple and clear. Was a headache to try and understand but you made it very easy to grasp and I know what I need to adjust to get the look I'm after. Thank you and keep up the great work!
Yeah yeah cool man. I just watched A Kite (1998) on hanime last night HIGHLY recommended. It's R18+ I presume. Gonna get back to drawing now but shoulder is hurting! How do you get your drawings looking like a 90's anime??? I mean the colours are different right, I think it was put to film which is what caused the colours to look like that. Woah your hands videos got 2.7 mill views woah I'm gonna watch that.
I totally agree.
This is dam true!,,,i feel like only now i understand.
Side note: If you're shooting on a green screen, you'll want to use a higher shutter speed, to eliminate some of the motion blur. Often 1/80th will suffice.
Came here to ask just that. I recently did some green screen work with my a7sii at 24fps and 1/80. Still had a bit of trouble with the key, as my subject was energetic with lots of hand movements. Was shooting slog3 internally.
I’m wondering for my next shoot if I would benefit more from increasing shutter speed even more. Or, I just purchased an Atomos Ninja Inferno, so less compression might do the trick.
Just came across this. I've heard people shooting as high as 1/320 to get a very clean key. It's trial and error depending on the camera and setup.
Or get a superior keying tech for post that will key blur.
That's what brought me here! Blurry green hands when I move around on my green screen.
Thanks for the info, that will come in useful.
DUDE!!! I've been shooting for like 4 years and still can't get this right. Even professors couldn't be this brief and to the point! You rock man!
After hours an hours watching videos trying to understand this S* finally i got it!! thank you soooooo much !!!
With shutter and Aperture set........ then use the ISO as variable to get the right exposure......that does it PERFECT Thank you Caleb
I'm amazed that 29 people, so far (I'm spelling 'people' i.d.i.o.t.s) have disliked this video. I've been a pro photographer and video maker and teacher for over 35 years, and this is the clearest, most succinct and best delivered instruction on these 3 tricky topics that I have ever seen. Well done!
its the compteittion
yes, but competitors hate that ;)
All videos get random likes and dislikes from bots and the like.
Hands-down the most useful video on UA-cam for someone getting into film. So clearly explained. Now I can take my camera off auto mode and do some experimenting. Definitely bookmarking this one! Thank you
This video is worth 10 videos from most creators! Very well explained & to the point!
Seriously, I took an entire photography course in college and I feel like I have a better understanding of this topic and the interactions between all these settings better now than I ever did then. Thanks for this video. Subbed.
Just found this video today, I'm just starting to shoot. I have watched like 100 videos in the past week and trying to learn, but for some reason it all kinda clicked when you explained it and for that reason I thank you!
These super basic simple videos are great, perfect for any beginner. Wish I knew this starting out
Me too! Thanks Rowan!
One of the easiest to understand videos on the subject I've seen in a while, thank you for making this! Extremely helpful. Cheers.
Excellent video man. It’s crazy how hard it’s been to find this exact info for shooting video. As a photographer I understand the ‘exposure triangle’ but when trying to wrap my head around how they apply to video when it’s not just individual photos but a constant capture it leaves a lot of questions and you’ve answered many of them very simply. Thanks!
Im a new UA-camr and learning a lot with cameras. Thank you this helped a lot. I’ve watched many of these videos and I understand this one the best
Amazing video for those who are looking to get into the basics of videography!
This is extremely helpful and explained so nicely - thanks so much!
Finally. I've been watching tons of vids since I got into photography last month. This is the clearest explanation of these settings I've found thus far. Thanks!
This is the most informative video I have seen Thank you
One of the most useful videos ever. Thank you.
This out of all the videos I've seen on UA-cam regarding this has been by far the best. Learnt a lot! Thanks man!
I just got my G7...and I'm so glad to have your videos helping learn. You're so good at teaching this stuff Caleb! Thanks!
In a studio with controlled lighting it's fairly easy, a totally different ball game when outside in constant varying lighting conditions.
Get a variable ND filter. This allows you to keep your settings and adjust your exposure to your environment.
What is his tripod and head shown in the video ?
Finally a video that gives a systematic, yet practical, explanation of these three DSLR settings without getting too technical. Far to many videos get into the mathematics and physics of these adjustments. I just want a basic and practical explanation like you gave! Thanks a million!
Wow been at this for months and thought I needed a quick brush up. I must say this has been one of the best explanations I've seen on the subject. Thorough yet straight to the point without all the extra jazz/noise you see everywhere on UA-cam taking up your time. I like that you put it all into real world practice for usu too. Subscribed I'll deff check out some of your other videos.
Simple & Easy to understand. Thanks. Question: What is a optimal ISO for day video on my G7?
How is this video even legal? My teacher should’ve showed this to our class instead of wasting a semester
Great video. Many thanks 🙏
Hero!!!! I've had a NIKKON D3300 for at least 3 years now and it's the first time I find someone to explain it this well and concise. Thanks so much.
I actually did film production at uni for 3 years and had films in Bafta accredited short film festivals and this video has taught me more in 12 mins than I have learnt in 8 years so clear and so well explained . So so grateful thank you
What was the frame rate during your opening effects?
24fps.
No.
f/22 means "Focus divided by 22", the same as 1/22=0.04545454545. Everyone doing this tutorials seems to don't understand basic mathematics language. And the earth still spherical. ;)
thank god you're not the one teaching it. Ego sucks to learn from.
Rhonda Costa that may be true, but knowledge is best learned from knowledge so there’s also that..
Hey Caleb, this is the most helpful "how to" for the subject that I've found! Simple, great pace, and easy to understand. Thanks for helping us become better shooters and create professional videos. 👍
Been watching your videos for 4 days now, crazy crazy informative. Bought myself a g85 a few months ago, and I’m so delighted to find you have a guide series for only 20 dollars. Just purchased it now, can’t wait to watch it tomorrow!
Caleb, I watch your content everyday, and thoroughly enjoy your structured method into breaking everything down and explaining it into such detail! Your channel has played such a pivotal role in my success!
Great job, and thank you very much!
Out of the 5 videos I watched on exposure this was by far the best and under 20 minutes! Exceptional work!
I've been amateurly shooting for a year by now. And this video is enlightment. Thank you so much Caleb!
I've been browsing a lot of video tutorials today about these and I can say that this is the best! You explained it very well!
I've gone to school for videography, and even the teachers there didn't manage to convey this as nicely as you did. this helps a ton! thank you!
Wonderful explanation, Caleb. Any beginner's photo book explains shutter speed, aperture, and iso, but you went on to give us examples of how they work in video, and how to adjust one to fix the other, ND filter, etc. Super job!
Thanks so much for making this! I learned a lot. I really enjoy your personality and the way you talk, I'm sick of watching through videos where youtubers strive to make me feel entertained. Your style carried me all the way through the video. Thank you for being you! Keep up the good work. You've played a part in my videography growth!
Caleb, thanks for this great, informative video. I know I'm commenting on a very old video at this point, but I've been watching your channel for a while and this is just what I needed. I have uploaded hundreds of vlogs many years ago with Flip cam, iPhone, and GoPros, then took a many year break when I got into photography. I've been a photographer for about 5 years now, shooting manual, so I understood the concepts of the exposure triangle, but I had no idea where to start with shutter speed for video. When I searched the topic and saw your video, I knew it would be the one to watch. Thanks again for your great channel!
Best video I've found describing these 3 aspects specifically for film making. ISO has always been the one that I didn't fully understand, great explanation. Also, great examples of how shutter speed can affect feel and tone of a scene. Never thought of that! Thanks so much!
This was THE most straightforward, helpful, and informative video i have ever seen describing these settings. Thank you so much for sharing this! I've watched soooo many videos where they use complicated language and it makes it so difficult for beginners to understand. This was so so helpful
I started shooting on a dslr about 6 months ago and this has been the best description of how to set up my camera by far. Thanks!!!
I love how you referencing movie's which have used the techniques, really helps the explanation click
I've watched SO many of these videos now and this is the most consise and most helpful and I'm so glad I found it!
Best and easiest explanation and guide to understanding the works of a still camera. I have been a shooter for TV 25 + years and have just recently given in to the new generation of " Video by Still Camera". I have never been a still shooter, so a difficult move from Iris, and ND filters to, Aperture/ISo/Shutter. Thanks
This video is AWESOME! I've always had trouble figuring out how these 3 settings work together. Thanks to you, I now understand how to use them in tandem. Cheers, Caleb!
This is a great explanation. I like how you provide real world applications to each shutter speed, aperture, and ISO, and how it affects your camera individually and symbiotically. Great content as always. Love your channel.
I’ve watched many educational film making videos and I just have to compliment, this is the best educational explanation over these three major video elements that I came across. Wonderful job brotha
i knew most of this but it took bits and pieces from a 100 videos where you actually explained it so well in one and i learned alot more ....good job
I’ve seen many videos that describe A/S/I and how the affect exposure. This is the first video I have seen that actually explains what to do with that information; how to actually apply it. Thx
Thank you so much for this excellent tutorial. Normally I have to watch two or more videos to understand all the details on a specific topic I'm attempting to learn. Your video covered all of the basics I needed. The visuals were clean and clear and dramatized the subject matter perfectly. Well done.
Fantastic references, thank you for the explanations!
Thank you so much for making this video. I just bought a camera and was wondering about Iso, appeture, shutter speed and FPS. Your video has helped understand the difference between all this. Great work buddy.
professional musician here who is filming sunsets, etc to put music to. I was stuck in autofocus and recently wasted an afternoon and a beautiful sunset. (I have good ones as well). I thought it was too complicated to learn this but you made it clear. This is by far the best tutorial I have seen. You have a gift. I subscribed of course.
This was pure class. Simple, friendly, and direct. Amazing video, cinematically and pedagogically. Thank you, Caleb.
I don't comment often on UA-cam, but this was easily one of the BEST, most informative and digestible tutorials I've ever seen.
Caleb, we discovered a video of yours last night, and we are hooked! Your videos are fantastic and so informative! We're subscribers now, and looking forward to new content!!!
This video was the most clear explanation of shutter speed, aperture and iso. nice way of visually showing the functions instead of showing graphs and triangles in other videos! Great helpful video.
I've been watching a lot of these kinds of videos and I have to say yours was by far the most helpful. Thank you for explaining things clearly and simply!
I like how you bring out the most basic characteristics that You can influence the quality of a good photo, how bright or dark it will turn out. This may seem very easy to understand, yet it can take some time to master.
There isn’t any objective variable that tells You when the exposure is “right”. You have to find for Yourself if a photograph looks too bright or dark. Your Video is quite the guide.
The intro music makes me so happy. Thanks for being the one who introduced me to the world of video
its 2021 and this vid is just a gold mine. Super clear and full with info - Thank you!
Thank you! This is the most informative and succinct explanation of Shutter speed/aperture/ISO and how they work in filmmaking I have yet to come across. I really appreciate the explanation of how to approach balancing/prioritizing the three for film work. Most explanations stop after describing what the three features do. Very helpful!!
Thank you Noble Warrior! Wanted to produce something I wish I had seen back when I started.
The way you explain makes it easy to understand. Only need once to watched the entire video. Thankyou very much!
Great explanation and video. Thanks!
Well done. I've watched a lot of videos that talk about these three parts of setting up to shoot but none that brought them together so well! Thank you!
Hi! fantastic video and explanation! I’ve been using my DSLR for UA-cam videos. Finally venturing out into the world of photography and have watched probably 20 vids on Aperture, Shutter Speed, & ISO, only to become more confused lol. I can’t thank you enough for the clarity and examples provided in your explanation. My photos have improved tremendously as a result of your explanation because you provided easy to understand concepts for each and how they work together. Keep up the great work! Thanks so much again!
I just purchased a LUMIX G7 and as a beginner, this video helped so much ! Thanks for such an informative and well-articulated video.
Really in depth video for better understanding video and being confident behind my camera! Your content is much appreciated !
Amazing tutorial! Thank you so much. I've been looking for a tutorial where everything is explained so I could actually understand it as a beginner. You've done an amazing job!
Thank you, sir. This tutorial is way much better. I've learned everything I need to make my first dslr short film in less than 13 minutes. Very clear, practical, and straight to the point.
The most logical and clear explanation I have seen for beginners! I will paste your video link to my friends who would ask me camera basics.
started my video training from my daughter last night and decided to watch your video just to make sure I was covering all the bases excellent job Caleb
Great job explaining and thanks for this. I keep hearing and learning about these three important camera fundamental settings (shutter speed, aperture, iso), and everything would seem clear whenever I would watch an explanation. But then 10 minutes later, I would be like, now what does aperture do again ? This explanation really helped simplify and clarify the distinctions on which each of these settings does and how to use and adjust each in different scenarios. Much of photography will be overcoming challenges of too much light, not enough light, too much depth or not enough depth of field, so to logically think it through which settings to prioritize and then adjust for special circumstances is really important and helpful.
Best Video on UA-cam over Shutter,Aperture & ISO. Simple & Complete
Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you.
I’m so happy I found your channel! Definitely one of my favorites!
New to video but old to photography - this video was brilliant in explaining why you need to think differently about shutter speed I.e. 180 rule. Thanks
This is exactly the info I needed to understand but didn’t know how to ask- thank you for this! Will make my videos way better! Seriously frustrated over light/focus and this helps me understand how to use iso aperture and shutter speed in the best order- I was making all kinds of weird tweaks not knowing which one did exactly what. All that to say, thank you!
WOW! This answers all my questions and i do REALLY appreciate your way of explaning, thorough and easy, calm and steady. Thanks!
Was looking for simple understanding of these 3 things. This is by far the most simples and to the point video. 180 degree rule solved my isues.
This is the best explanation of shutter speed, aperture and iso I’ve seen so far, and delivered at a nice pace.
I just bought a G7 for my channel and just by placing it on auto, I see an amazing improvement over my iPhone; obviously. But during the video I noticed the camera changing settings in the middle of my video. It was irritating to see. So I came here to learn how to manually control the settings to prevent this. I know nothing about photography, but thank goodness for you. You were a huge help in at least clearing up the basics. Now I can play around with the settings and have some idea what the heck they do. I think there must be 200 buttons and settings on this camera😒. But I’m determined to learn them. Thanks so much. 👍😊
I know about these 3, in the context of still, underwater shooting. I now make a push into learning video and I know NOTHING about how to coordinate them in Video. Seems to be a whole different animal, and yes, maybe easier (!)? Really clear, concise explanation, maybe the best I've heard. Even though I shoot with a Sony, this is totally applicable! Thank you so much!!
2021 and this video is still helping people! Mad props to you my friend! You rock!
This is the best version of explaining this I have seen. Concise! 10/10
Thank you!
Super easy and straight forward explanation. Thanks for sharing!
Before this video I had no idea what I was doing wrong when some of my footage looked great and some of my footage looked really bad. I have a Lumix G7 and I thought I was going crazy while filming in Lowlight. This video was very helpful for me. Thank You for explaining it all.
Hands down best video on shutter, ISO and aperture. Great job dude!
I have watched a number of different tutorials before but this one sums up the best and breaks it down to the level where even i can comprehend,
Cheers!
These settings have always been a mystery to me. Very well explained and thank you for giving me the confidence to break out of auto mode 👍🏻
Looking at a bunch of vids and this one is the best one so far, well explained, good examples, to the point and no fluff. Thumbs up!
This is hands down the best video for learning about these three basics, thanks a lot, subscribing...
Bro....what an amazing video!! Now this is how to explain things!! Good job 👍🏼
Really appreciated your straight forward explanations. I have been told a million times from childhood what those three can do. Just got it!
