[@osvaldo5123]

[@Rjet33]

I love it. I have a new T6 and I prefer this one.

[@siahlater-_-]

Yes OMG! LOL

[@miajohn7511]

2020 and I still use it

[@CDGMR1]

What an amazing video. I bought my camera like 7 years ago. Now that I am into photography, I am learning how to use it. 😁

[@Kanchhakaji1731]

I bought the same camera few years ago but never used it because of not understanding how to use it I am retired now and took it out to use it but it became more complicated now than before and thought of selling it My son told me to have a look in youtube and found your video, I found it very interesting and useful and well presented. Thank you so much.

[@TheSurlyWombat101]

Extremely helpful and very thorough. You explained everything clearly. I am a beginner but I understood everything so thank you.

[@ademakid212]

Just bought this camera yesterday. First DSLR camera. Your video made this camera seem not as complicated as I thought it would be. Appreciate it!

[@sgtmoose1942]

Thanks for this video. It's 2021 and I just bought this camera used. It's in good shape and it's my first "REAL" camera.

[@uduvudoo3083]

May the Good Lord bless your Canon training for Noobs ministry! Thank you so much!

[@ouidajoi8862]

Just purchased this camera and was clueless about how to use it. Your videos are fantastic! I am ready to go now! Thanks!

[@MediaUnlocked]

thanks

[@forellana88]

i just recently got this camera as a gift since I like taking alot of pics of friends and family members....But I am clueless in how this camera works or what its capable of. Your video helped me out a lot. Especially what the numbers in the screen mean. Subscribed :)

[@GotsProblems]

With such a title, I'm surprised that you got so many views. However, when I see the sheer knowledge you have with that camera and the skill you have at teaching it, I wasn't surprised anymore.

[@amcomeau]

I just bought this camera yesterday. When I first looked at it at home, I was pretty overwhelmed but after viewing your video, I think I can get the hang of this camera quickly. Thanks!

[@shortcut525]

Just purchased a used canon T2i and this helped A LOT! Thx

[@roniproductions6011]

Hello and thank you so much for the video,I couldn’t activate slow motion video effect,I record on different modes but when I come to see what I recorded,the video Is normal speed.please advice .thank you again

[@jasonrossrealty]

I must say that this video is AMAZINGLY helpful for someone who just purchased a Canon Rebel t2i. Thanks so much for making this. Helped me very very much.

[@stacyseptember]

thank you for these videos! i've been searching for something like this and am so grateful to have found it. i think my favorite part is that they're videos of the camera and where you're pressing buttons and such. so helpful, thanks again!

[@MediaUnlocked]

Stacy Muller thanks

[@vuivunaturagavou6877]

thankyou for the tutorial I've just bought a secondhand camera and watching this video has really helped me

[@coconut7130]

This was extremely helpful, David. Thank you very much. You were very clear and thorough with what you covered. Looking forward to seeing the next video on the T2i from you.

[@ingridhatletveit4772]

This is SO helpful! Thank you for taking your time to make this video!! :)

[@MediaUnlocked]

Happy to help

[@TheVATraveler]

I've been using my t2i in a studio on manual...setting the ISO to 100 or 200, aperture and shutter speed...during shoots I've found the setting seem to change without me doing anything. It became most noticeable when the shutter speed went to 1/320 and half the frame was black being out of sync with the strobe. I'm using the 'Q' button to change settings...My question is am I doing something wrong or is the camera broken?

[@tjm8733]

you have any advice on shutter speeds or aperture settings for a live music gig? preferably one with stage lighting?

[@CDGMR1]

Would be nice to know what ISO is.

[@adriandiaz7690]

Question loved the video I owe a T2i and it was great to know alot more of my camera, but the CA setting on the dial you skipped that part? I would like to know more about it..

[@tess303]

Thank you sooo much David! You are a good teacher. You have kept it straightforward & simple/clear. Looking forward to learning more.

[@TheIsabellV]

I am new to this extreme camera, and i do know what all the buttons are for i had it for 8 months but I havent really touched it only because I am still learning how to use it so what is your best advice for me as a young person?

[@rdk285]

why dint u mention anything about the CA mode? i guess it stands for creative auto. im a beginner so iv just tried it a bit.. wud love to know more abt it!

[@Longshotblade]

how do I open up one stop while keeping aperture constant from the previous exposure? Also how do I close one stop while keeping the aperture sonstant from the previous exposure? I'm so confused! Are there certain aperture settings that go with shutter speeds, or can I mix and match?

[@pfdragstrem]

Thanks, I never thought of using the AUTO setting as a meter. I am doing a photo shoot in a month for a friend and I now have a way to check out my settings.

[@JBHIRONS]

Thank you so much for getting back to me, I have a EFS 55-250 f/4-5.6 is, lens with image stabilizer, Is this ok to use, cause thats all I have. I will be 80 yards from the stage, hope this works and turns out ok. I will let you know, Thanks again for the advice!!

[@bobate6030]

A good friend of mine gave me his older canon. So here I am learning how to use it. Starting small b4 I go big!

[@quiles26]

Question? I took your tips and put them in practice at my kids soccer game and it went great. I took a video and when I play it in the camera it plays normal. When I try to play it in the Mac using Quicktime or VLC it does not play at normal speed and kind of freeze. Any suggestions???

[@TheMobileBertman]

What setting would be good for a KISS concert, just got the camera and dont know it yet, could ya help me out???Thanks

[@quiles26]

Another ??? I bought my T2i in a bundle and got 2 lenses. One is EFS 18-55mm and 55-250. Are they good or shoul I start thinking about other lenses? Thanks

[@ralph7675]

good informative video, what lens did you have connected to camera. or what do you recommend for everyday outdoor use?

[@iamvihaansharma]

Hi! Great video! Helped me a lot! Just a little question. Please tell me the difference between the Av setting and Tv setting... it sounded like they were the same in the video.

[@MediaUnlocked]

You can put it in M mode keep you iso as low as possible set your aperture to what is needed to get the lighting right then lower shutter under 50 and play around with it. Make sure you are holding the camera as steady as you can when shooting with a low shutter. I hope that help

[@StevenLipson93]

@MediaUnlocked The difference between a crop sensor and full sensor is an increased field of view. There is a magnification factor with crop sensors that full frame sensors don't have. The rebel T2i is a crop sensor with a 1.6x magnification factor. This magnification factor is the equivalent to zooming in 1.6x on a full frame sensor. Another difference between a full frame sensor and crop sensor is that a full frame sensor gives your photos shallower depth of field.

[@rreganjjohnn]

good info but I cant tell which buttons you right finger is doing to change the modes perhaps you could let us know what and where you are pressing to change the modes with you right hand

[@CDogg97]

Thanks for this...great for beginners! Just got this camera from my husband for my bday and had no clue how to use it, lol. I knew i would be able to come across just the right video to teach a beginner how to use this camera, thx again, just what i was looking for!

[@Groverfargo]

ok so question if i have a 50mm lens and i want to move in video mode, but i dont want to keep playing with the focus in order to keep there face in focus, how can i bring everything in focus, cause i have been playing with my canon for a few days trying to figure out how to do this.... i was thinking like 1/40 f11, when i do that it seems nothing changes on the video side of things...

[@ineedstuff8286]

Thank you!! I am using my Dad's now, as I get used to it (aka, see if I'm ay good ;) ). I am curious about how "bad" the video capabilities are for current use. For example making youtube videos. What was used top record this video?.. a camcorder? a DSLR?.. Have a great day!

[@tiffanyhendeson7831]

Hello David I discovered you here searching for someone who can explain calming on how to use this camera still in 2three My son with Down Syndrome was given this camera years ago and he wanted to take photos but I have no idea how to use it to teach him. Yes this camera is about 10 yrs old or so but no since in getting a newer one if we cannot work this. Thank you for time in teaching just the basics. 2three. Since he’s a beginner at modeling I’d like to use this camera myself to take his photos to save funds but I need help on just basics to do so. Again Thx

[@MediaUnlocked]

@Back2BackMovies any time what did you get confused on

[@Klok666Deth]

Thanx man...really gud...i wanna get into travel photography...which lens do u suggest?

[@MCMUNROE78]

awesome 3 videos. I just got my t2i yesterday, and after watching the 3 vids, I went back to take some photos today, and there is a huge difference since now that I know what the controls do, lol. thanks

[@949surferdude]

Which settings do you recommend for a beginner with a 50mn lens? Mainly for baby/ portrait pictures.

[@L0lal0la23]

@MediaUnlocked I didn't get what we are supposed to do with WB, i mean how to use it while taking pictures and if i take a picture of white blank paper in any light, would tht be gud? I've bought my canon this week so m totally new:D Thankyou very much for replying!

[@rickijones8793]

Hi! I just got a used camera (same one in vid) & I tried taking pictures today at the beach but it did not come out like I thought it would? Any thoughts or tips would be much appreciated, I'll also research what I can do to improve! Thank you(:

[@BabiferJ]

This video was very straight to the point & helpful!!! I just bought the t2i and im trying to learn how to use all the features.. Im a slr newbie and this video really helped to break everything down..thanks :) Going to watch the rest of your series!

[@karenclairedimacutac5490]

I just want to ask wat is the best setting for daytime? Indoor? And kinda dark sky? Thanks! I really find it hard to set my camera.

[@MediaUnlocked]

@Longshotblade You mix and match to get the right lighting. I all ways keep shutter at 30 if I can

[@leonserdna1]

Nice video tutorial. can you recommend not so expensive wide angle lens for me using 550D. thanks

[@MediaUnlocked]

That is the cheapest decent wide angle I have use to date.

[@Sarahlee52106]

Just bought this camera in 2021 and I'm excited to learn it!

[@pearllagoontalent6000]

Can you choose different effect while taking pictures?

[@MediaUnlocked]

You can put lens on the M mode witch is manual mode but you will have to focus the shot your self. You need just a little bit of light to take a picture if it is pitch dark you will have trouble taking pictures bring your iso up and apature the lowest it can go

[@MediaUnlocked]

if you put your camera in the M mode and go through the settings there is option to change the color of your menus

[@MediaUnlocked]

@BabiferJ What class is your card if it is a class 6 or less then this is a common problem.

[@MediaUnlocked]

@bokikawa Go to you menu and then go to the yellow wrench I believe it is the last one and change your camera from Pal to Ntcs

[@bisdaktvofficial1590]

Its 2021 and i still use it peace

[@Loucura4Life]

Have you tried setting it to Wombo?

[@L0lal0la23]

I didn't quit understand what you did with white balancing, can you may be explain that a bit please? Thanks!

[@MzEllieStarr]

Av- is aperture priority- you set the apeture, and the shutter will be set accordingly automatically. Tv- is the opposite. Shutter speed priority. you control the shutter speed and the aperture size changes automatically to create the proper exposure. I'm not trying to be a "know-it-all", at all!!! idk much!! just wanted to make it clear. Ty for the info :) beautiful lens as well! create on!! ~peace*

[@TheBrigigio]

I've been watching tutorials all day and yours was the most helpful! Thanks :)

[@BabiferJ]

Hi again! Ok I have a problem/question and I hope you can help! I have this camera (Canon T2i) and for some reason when I put it on the video setting and press the record button..it only records for around 12-15 seconds and automatically stops. I tried to look under all the different settings but cant seem to find out what the problem is. I also googled this and most ppl were talkinga bout the memory card. Im using a Sandisc w/lots of space so I dont know why this is happening :( Pls help!

[@emanzubia3329]

What's the right settings for shooting miniature objects(like toys)? So I can capture the right balance between subject and it's background.I usually use at shoot outdoor for toys. thanks

[@MediaUnlocked]

Every place is different because of lighting. I really would not know. I would try low aperture low iso with a shutter speed being the final factor in your picture.

[@emanzubia3329]

hmm aperture.many thanks and keep it up

[@iamaco0kie]

Hi....i got my 550d 3 months back. i will be really grateful if you would kindly attend to my problem which i am facing with the camera. Since its a class 4 card, i use the video at 640p. its all good during the day, but when it comes to my tube-light lit room at night, a horizontal greenish sort of lines appear that runs down horizontally. i have formatted the camera and don't know what more i could do with it before i approach the canon assistance. please help!

[@YARA_THE_PITAARA_268]

Please tell me if its good camera I get it to day its have a mic what I can put it on the top thanks

[@frvncoramos]

it's 2017 and i'm still using the handy 550D.

[@hassanurrahmansumon5463]

fscramos me too😁

[@MediaUnlocked]

it is a great camera

[@XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD]

I just bought a flashair (wifi enable sd card) for the t2i! Still rocking it ;)

[@Hotelsocks]

Just bought a t2i for pretty cheap. It's a great camera for its age!

[@unzarjones]

2019 and I just pulled it out of the closet after four years. Forgot how to work it so thanks for the video. :)

[@lightning0409]

Hi ! Can you recommend any good lenses for shooting video...I do more news reporting, but I'm also hoping to do little documentaries.

[@MediaUnlocked]

Prime lenses 50mm,28mm,85mm

[@MrSkeath]

got one last month and i am simply adoring it...I will admit althought its fantastic,im having trouble pulling some amazing shots due to in expeience.This video is so so helpfull.thanks so much from ireland...

[@alyssaotero8032]

Is anyone here in 2024 still using this camera... I am.

[@kproctor77]

Question. When I put my t2i in the automatic mode and look at my screen, it looks great. It shows me exactly what the pic will look like when I take it. However, when I put it in manual(M), the screen is A LOT darker than it should be. When I'm focusing on something, the screen goes back to exactly how it's supposed to look, but once I take the pic, it's back to being dark as hell! Help!

[@shainyyy1950]

Hey there I dont know if you still read this But do you think the videoquality is better than a galaxy s10+ camera?

[@BabiferJ]

@MediaUnlocked Oh I see..Okay I will have to go take a look when I get home tonight! I have a feeling it may be a 6 but not too sure. Would you recommend a certain specific memory card for shooting videos on the T2i camera?

[@mamaoneson6145]

Do you have any tutorials that addresses shadows and how to eliminate them while using flash?

[@MediaUnlocked]

not really flash just takes a lot of practice. bouncing the flash off the ceiling can help.

[@matheuslink61]

Have you checked out the nikon d3200 ? I was about to buy the t2i but the d3200 seems to have better features and is really not that much more expense than the 550d. The 24 MP seems great too even though I am a little skeptical about its performance in high ISO. Anyway , I havent decided and would apreciate very much your opinion on this . Thank you

[@quiles26]

Great video. Great tutorial. I just found you yesterday in KZbin and already watched all you videos. Thanks!!!

[@MediaUnlocked]

@Groverfargo You will all ways have to manually focus to keep the picture in focus

[@JetSet614]

Thank you so much David of Media Umlocked! You helped me a lot understanding my dslr function!

Happy I could help

[@m71544232]

i have a question.....i want to capture shaky picture without blur like when someone is running or dancing, which mode should i use? help pls.......

[@bradyelton903]

what settings should i use to take sports photos at night

[@muhammadkhursheed7641]

Kindly recommend a good lence for the same camera

[@MediaUnlocked]

50mm 1.8 by Canon

[@skyjaimes]

Hey what video editing software do you use? And would you recommend Adobe Premier Pro CS6? All I'am trying to do is a small 4 minute clip that includes night shots..pics and day shots..oh by the way I think I consider myself a beginner with a descent amount of knowledge..feedback would be appreciated

[@jenn5959]

what settings would you recommend me using for shooting pics of a newborn indoors available light no flash using the 50 mm 1.8 lens?

[@MediaUnlocked]

low aperture shutter around 100 and iso as needed. Hope this help

[@jenn5959]

THANKS!! shooting tomorrow and will definitely try this! I still have a rough time understanding shutter aperture and all that.... keep it in manual? I haven't shot in manual before.... would av mode benefit me at all?

[@jenn5959]

what about the metering? do I leave it in evaluative? partial spot or center ?

[@shail24703]

Can you show me a video in which I can know how to zoom and take a picture in my canon eos 550 d . As when I zoom and take a picture , in the display , the picture is always taken without a zoom .

[@sherylstahl6913]

Thanks, this was EXTREMELY helpful. If I could make 1 small suggestion for future videos ... when you switch topics, can you put a title screen? I had to back track a few times to review what you were saying and it would be helpful to find the start of each section.

[@MediaUnlocked]

Sorry this is a very old video.

[@MediaUnlocked]

@TheVATraveler If your shutter speed goes over 200 to 250 it will start to give you black lines it has to do with the speed of the flash not being as fast as the speed of the camera

[@firerocks5938]

How do you get Wi-Fi connected on t2i cannon camera ?

[@DigitalNoomad]

Whats a full frame lens and whats a crop sensor?

[@zainz2467]

hey man, what type of pro lens can most suitable for this camera ?

[@MediaUnlocked]

what is your budget? What wil you do mostly photography or videography

[@awowoosas]

Lol, AV mode is Aperture Priority , you will have the control of your F/stop or Aperture and the camera will adjust the Shutter speed and the ISO for you to get a correct exposure. This is good if you want to focus on one particular subject of an image. eg, Portrait photography, etc etc.

[@sisco0304]

Can I connect this camera to wifi to the camera connect app on my iPhone for eazy uploads is my camera capabilie of Bluetooth WiFi

[@cynthiaseafeldt4814]

What are settings P and CA for that are located above auto?

[@darklabelleather]

Dude,In Av mode,you control the aperture and the camera sets the shutter speed for you.

[@ferndog681]

I got a good deal on this camera (t2i) but I have no idea how to use it. I will be viewing these videos. thank you

[@jenn5959]

should I set it to center weight focusing ?

[@TheBoosterGuy]

Hi, my T2i won't shoot with flash in manual mode.. how do I fix it? And in manual mode I can't adjust the "Exposure comp./AEB setings" like in the P mode

[@OwlTL]

Why do I sometimes see a green blur or square on pictures that I take at night? How do I turn it off? Thanks

[@vampirechibiofreno]

how do you take pictures up close with some one?

[@HabboPhil]

could you take photos with all of the different manual settings and go over the amount of iso , shutter speed and apeture with each different shot. or have you already done this in another video that i havent seen? if so id like to know :))
