Thankfully, I have developed the habit of imagining the edited image when I'm actually composing> The three questions once verbalised crystallise the composing process. Thank you.

This is good advice but it is basic. Anyone who started with a film DSLR would know all of this. If you don't understand the basics in the first place, you should just buy a simple point and shoot camera.

So you're against someone learning? How are they meant to learn if you want them to just buy a point and shoot?

Isn't setting your aperture to a pretty fixed value (f8-f11), your iso at 100 and then adjusting your shutter speed until you get a neutral value at your indicator just aperture priority with extra steps?
@SteveArnoldPhoto 11 күн бұрын
I see where you're coming from, but it's not quite the same because your camera will decide the shutter speed for you in aperture priority and it might not always give the exposure you actually want. With manual mode you can decide to make it longer or shorter than what the camera would have thought was correct. Getting the indicator to neutral is a quick starting point for you to then alter shutter speed up or down based on your needs.
@Chaosghoul 11 күн бұрын
@@SteveArnoldPhoto okay, but if most of what you do is adjust shutter until the light meter is neutral and then adjust a little further to get the picture you want, isn't this almost the same as just using exposure compensation?
@Chaosghoul 11 күн бұрын
what I'm basically asking here is: If you more or less lock two values and adjust the third, why not simply use an auto mode? (in this case aperture priority). Or in other words: Why go through the "effort" of manual mode if you end up locking two values and just adjusting one?
@Chaosghoul 11 күн бұрын
+ as an absolute beginner, I'm asking for the genuine difference, not meaning these questions as a critique
@SteveArnoldPhoto 8 күн бұрын
It's a good question. One reason I like doing it how I'm showing here is that conceptually it's a lot easier just to think of your shutter speed as being your "brightness dial" once the other values are locked in. You're right, it is effectively the same as using exposure compensation. But the other advantage of doing it my way is that using an auto mode and relying on exposure compensation adds in another variable where the camera could mess things up. For example, shooting a scene where the light changes in front of the camera frequently - like a seascape where the foreground can change from one shot to the next because there may be a bright white wave rushing rushing past, or it might just be dark blue water, or somewhere in between. In auto, the cameras going to meter each frame differently so all your shots will be exposed differently. And if you have a sunrise in the background that MUST be exposed precisely, then its going to get messed up and probably over or under exposed half the time. Thats just one example off the top of my head. Let me know if that helps :)
@1pcmedic 13 күн бұрын
For those who do not understand why AUTO only works for average scene brightness and colors, try this. On a sunny day put a black piece of paper on a table and fill the viewfinder with it and take a pic. Then do the same with a white piece of paper. Both images should almost look the same because the camera is trying to average the scene. The average scene is MEDIUM GRAY. That is why photographers used to carry a 'gray card" to get their exposure off of to set manual settings.

While manual mode has its place, and it’s a good/important skill to know. I’m still going to use Aperture Priority mode most of the time. Modern mirrorless cameras have useful tools like live histogram, zebras , preview, etc… If you are paying attention, and have your camera setup how you want (and understand how it works), using the auto modes (combined with exp comp dial, or manual mode when you need/want it) will be a lot faster and easier to use (at least it is for me), allowing you to concentrate more of your time on composition and looking for the next scene. With that said, I do use manual mode when shooting astro, and often when shooting waterfalls, creeks etc.. Learn all the modes, understand what does what and use what you want. To each their own. 🙂

Oh thank goodness, FINALLY a digital era photographer who speaks about the cameras built-in light metre. I'm a two-time award-winning former news/war photographer who am now teaching photography. I am constantly astounded by the amount of digital era photographers who have never heard of, or have ever used the cameras built in light metre. Just as the speedometer in your car tells you how fast you're going, the cameras built in light metre gives you a guide the exposure level of your image. What a breath of fresh air this video was.

Using Auto ISO is not automatically bad. Sometimes you just have a second to get a shot off. And in that case i´d rather have Auto ISO give me a usuable image than missing the shot alltogether. However, if you have the time, always go for fully Manual obviously. Luckily its often super easy to switch from Auto ISO to Manual ISO in a matter of Seconds too. So i usually just let my Camera sit on Auto ISO so i never miss a shot, but can always adjust when i know i have a couple of seconds. I cant count the times i´ve missed a great shot oppertunity because i just didnt have the exposure set in time. Also i shoot pretty much exclusively Outdoors and not in spaces where you can control the Light or your subjects and without a Tripod. So that heavily factors into the Decision to have Auto ISO on as the standard.
@AW00047 2 ай бұрын
I am not a pro by far, but isn't the point of semi auto modes to do everything you said here, but in reverse - first you choose a signature effect you need from either aperture or shutter speed (and you're already pretty much limited with the setting range), then your ISO is adjusted for optimal brightness/noise, then you adjust the indicator with exposure compensation?

@joegame4576 2 ай бұрын
i don't agree with the priority list. ISO setting should be the last of the three for most shots. ISO 100 is just unrealistic for most shots. the only time ISO can be set to 100 (or whatever the base is) before shutter speed is if you're both using a tripod AND the subject is not moving. in that case, the shutter speed can be set as slow as you want to get the desired exposure. any other time where shutter speed can't be too slow, ISO should be set last.

Finally Steve, a photographer telling the truth about Adobes headlong pursuit about AI technology fixing and repairing everything, and worse, so many well respected photographers making YT video after video about this new AI stuff showing how wonderful it all is, without mentioning the problems. I’ve tried Generative Expand and not yet gotten a good result with it. And as for AI removing things and giving you great expanded images I found early on this result of 1024 x 1024 pixels is just a load of unusable nonsense. And the thing that really riles me is Adobe only give you 500 free AI credits on The Photography Plan, but all the `garbage` generations that it produces in each block of 3 attempts, is charged against your account whether the results are usable or not. You should be able to `reject` any generations that are just not useable and not be charged for these. Great honest video Steve, thanks for posting this and let’s have more like this please.
