    Mike, I just finished watching your collections of videos. I have reinvigorated my photography lately with the help of several excellent UA-camrs (there has not been much opportunity to travel and practice in recent times). I have to say that you have been a standout! This video in particular gets straight to it in a way that few other have, and I love your communication style as well as your cheerful nature. Beautiful photos. Thanks for sharing

    Thank you for the explanations of the most important things. However, you havent said much about composition, i think this is the most important aspect of the photo. You can take technically perfect image, but if there is nothing special on the photo or the composition sucks, image will suck as well. So yeah, much more focus on that would be very helpful. Some basics on that…

  • @robertleeimages
    @robertleeimages Рік тому

    I definitely don't class myself as a beginner but 1 thing never made clear is the minimum shutter to focal length as you also cover saying with 50mm, you need 1/50sec, etc etc, it may sound a silly question but is that what applies to full frame but would then make someone using a crop sensor need a shutter of 1/80 for a 50mm and 1/50 for a 30mm as I mainly use? It's not a hugely big deal for me because even night street photography I'm never slower than 1/100sec, but through my testing I either have very shakey hands or 1/30 for a 30mm on a crop sensor is too slow and should also be multiplied by 1.6(canon) because i get shake blur at 1/30 but for me that could also be due to no IS on the sigma 30mm and definitely no in body IS on my 200d

    • @PereaPhotography
      @PereaPhotography  Рік тому +1

      I would say yes that you would use the full frame equivalent, as it would always mean a faster shutter speed. To build on that, if you’re like me and shoot a large megapixel camera like 30+ megapixels, it should be double the focal length. So 50mm would be 1/100”. You’re technique, really gets put on display with a large megapixel camera. This is why I just prefer to use a tripod. It takes away that issue of any camera shake from a slow shutter speed/handshake.

    • @robertleeimages
      @robertleeimages Рік тому

      @@PereaPhotography awesome thank you that explains why 1/100 I'm fine although i can get the odd sharp image when burst shooting at slower speeds, but have to really think about everything like breathing, bracing to the absolute max of my ability. My camera is only 24.2mp, but i always use a tripod for landscapes that are a planned shoot. But boy I'm now really glad i got the sigma f1.4 30mm for night street photography, otherwise if i went there 50mm like originally wanted I'd need to be up at 1/200 which would then need iso pushed up to over 3200 for a lot of the images.

    • @Reddepex
      @Reddepex Рік тому

      @@robertleeimages Not sure if I am correct, but I wanted to say this: You're camera has a 1.6 crop factor. The size of the pixels is approximately the same as a 60mp full frame camera. The photo you take, can be considered a crop of a 60mp full frame. So the shutter speed needed on the full frame body would be even more than 2x the 1/50. And the part I'm not sure about: that would mean your shutter speed on your crop sensor with a 50mm lens would also need to be higher than 2x 1/50. If not stabilized.

    Hi Mike, I'm a complete beginner. ( Been using cell phone camera Lol) I am looking to buy a quality decent camera but I don't know where to start DSLR or Point and Shoot.
    I mainly want to take nature pics wildlife like Bald Eagles from my kayak and other wildlife and landscapes while hiking.
    Any recommendations are appreciated I'm looking to stay under $500

    • @PereaPhotography
      @PereaPhotography  Рік тому

      Hey David! For your budget I would go with a used DSLR to start with. B&H has some Nikon D3300 with the 18-300mm kit lens on sale for under $500. That’s a great way to get into wildlife photography. It doesn’t have to be Nikon, I would guess canon probably has some used DSLR cameras with kit lenses that would work as well!
