Thats great to hear! It is amazing seeing what happens when you change a certain setting within the functions of the camera. This is one of the downsides of shooting in manual with auto iso, as soon as you switch it to bracketing, you have to come out of auto iso so you change shutter speed. Thanks for watching 😁👍

I started exposure bracketing after watching a video you made many years ago. You brought up a great point in this video about using it to determine what your individual taste for a photograph really is. I found after a lot of trial and error, that point zero seven under-exposed was my sweet spot for most photos. Sorry, didn't mean to speak American, point nought seven for you Brits. When I would bring my bracketed sets in to edit, I usually always ended up making the overall photo look something like that .07 underexposed frame. Anyway, fantastic technique for static shots. My seven year old grandson and I are knee deep in making green screen videos at the moment. We are flying through the air, swimming with sharks, running from dinosaurs, bears and lions and various other scenarios, all from the comfort of our living room. I hope you and yours are well, my friend.

Very good show of the many options, BRAVO! Here's a little extra, Bracketing started mainly due to low dynamic range of cameras but got may images looking like cartoons but just a phase! I experimented to get a moon in focus and sharp while also getting a bright foreground ISO/SS are equal and F is 8 to 11 for focus. ISO/SS 125 F=10 center shot .5s last shot will be 30s but if you increase ISO/SS the last shot will be the brightest any way just a different center. The reason back in 2010 and such PS/Lr was $800+ each and each update/upgrade and my first Canon T2i and two lenses were $850 in 2010, Yes today in PS you can just blend a moon in like the days of dark rooms. But remember to keep the moon the size of your thumb held out in front. Also no lens will get you the size moon the way you see it and also a full size full ground the way you see it due to your peripheral vision. Today doing 5 @ +/-2EV during blue hour will get you bright foreground as well as stars and if done with sun up above horizon the sun will be small and not blown out and instead of silhouettes in the foreground the dark side of things will be bright and sharp with great detail also for sunsets both times will get great color to play with. A driftwood beach is great place to test, and if you use f/22 you may capture a drawing in the sand nature drew.

Compelling post, Mike. Covers much detail. Showing different camera brands, a plus. Same for depth of field caution. Spot-on thumbnail. I don’t follow the advice about not using auto-white balance, though. Unlike a pano, where different image segments might have different temperatures, wouldn’t the WB be expected to be constant for the scene - unless each frame is taken hours apart. For occasional bracketing, my preference would be to use the exposure compensation dial method you showed. No table this time, but there was a bench in background.😊 Cheers!
@mikesphotography Жыл бұрын
There was a table in there, but it was a little undercover ... at 0:16 . You're right with auto white balance, but sometimes if you're shooting long exposure times and the sun is coming in and out, this could change it a little. I tend to switch to the bracketing function in the drive mode and then switch back, but the exposure compensation option is a great way to do it, especially with cameras like Sony and Fuji having a dedicated EC dial. As always thanks for watching Paul 😁👍

Great video! As someone who can have difficulty staying focused at times, this video was great because you kept changing the camera angle. It may be a small thing, but it really does help!! I was just wondering if you have any recommendations for bird photography. I am new to photography and when I went out to take photos of birds I found myself spending a lot of time adjusting my exposure compensation/brackets. I think I was in the wrong mode though, I was testing out aperture and shutter priority modes, but I just learned you should be in manual with auto ISO, because low aperture and high shutter speed is critical for bird photography. It would be awesome to see a video by you on a video on bird photography since you teach so well! (Unless you already have made one.) Thanks!!
@mikesphotography Жыл бұрын
Thanks very much! great to hear I was able to keep your focus. The whole idea behind changing angles came out of me messing my lines up so much, and hating jump cuts. 😆 Bird and wildlife photography is a tricky genre to master. You do need to keep your shutter speed high, especially when you are using a really long telephoto. I haven't shot many birds, but I'd say to keep it in either shutter priority or manual with auto iso, but keep an eye on your iso levels as you shoot. Then use exposure compensation to quickly change the settings when necessary. It is a case of going out as much as possible until you find a technique that works for you. IF you are not getting the results you want, find out about another way and then try that. It's good to have somewhere close to where you live so when you have some time, you can quickly and easily go out and shoot. I know a lot of bird photographers have a bird-table in their back garden and practice with the local wildlife until they know how to get good shots, before heading out somewhere in the wild. I hope that helps. Thanks for watching 😁👍

No worries, great to hear it has helped. If you shoot with Sony cameras, there is a "bracket settings" in one of the many menu options. Go to this and select the timer to 2 seconds or more, and then shoot in BKT-C setting in the drive mode, this will then set a timer and shoot them all in one go. I don't have me camera with me at the moment, so can't remember the exact menu options, but I think that should get you there. If you shoot with a different brand, they all should have this option and there will probably be a video on it. Thanks for watching 😁👍

Were you in peak district? I was in Edale last week and look super familiar :D Thanks for the tutorial! I didn't know about this feature and was doing manually and lost a good picture because I moved a bit while changing.

It looks quite Peaky doesn't it... I actually filmed this near Dolgellau in Mid Wales, on the Precipice walk. It does look a lot like Edale doesn't it! It is well worth knowing about bracketing exactly for reasons like you mentioned. Nothing worse than having your camera move between shots. Thanks for watching 😁👍

Great I think I like bracketing but just one thing. Everyone says LR but in fact you’re using LRC and I get confused if it’s the same process or different. Not moaning just an observation loads of teachers do it lol.

Hi Mike, when you are merging in light room you never mentioned processing the raw photographs! Does light room do that automatically when merging? Good video by the way

The worst thing about this advice is that if I follow it, I'll finally have to get that Lightroom subscription. 😮💨 (or something else that processes RW2)

I do disagree with one comment however: I don’t think that it’s laziness to bracket your shots routinely. I think it’s smart because it’s always better to ensure coming home with a good shot versus missing it entirely or having to come back to re-shoot.

I don't like the ransom based model of Adobe (subscription). I bought Photomatix v6 pro years ago and got free upgrade to v7. I am using Acdsee photo studio ultimate for digital asset management, development and editing. All perpetual license, no ransom Adobe crap.

This is for advance camera “bracketing 5 shots and more”. Canon T7 doesn’t have more than 3 shots. Hopefully, I’m not mistaken.😢😢😢

You can still follow this process with three shots in a set. Sometimes I'll shoot one shot, other times I'll shoot either 3 or 5, depending on the conditions.

Is there a difference between doing this manually and having your camera take HDR pictures by itself? For the last couple of days I have been accidentally using my X-T4 in HDR mode, noticed it was oddly sluggish in taking and storing pictures now and then. Most of the pictures turned out as I expected them however. I wonder though because it also has exposure bracketing features as well and if they do the same thing, just with more work then what's the point?

I'd always say when bracketing to shoot raw and edit them afterwards. This speeds up the shooting process ... and you make decisions on editing your photos instead of your camera choosing the editing peramiters for your photos. Thanks for watching 👍

I usually shoot in PP10 (i.e., HLG) to capture maximum dinamic range, and color grade the photos in the post.. What do you think???
@mikesphotography Жыл бұрын
Picture profiles are more for video files where there is very little scope for editing with the lack of data in the 8bit files. With photography, it is better to shoot in RAW as this has all the information saved by the sensor, without the need to shoot in such a flat profile.

REALLy enjoyed your video! Just a quick question! what is the name of the product that you are using with at the shoulder of your bag pack to put your camera mwhile not using it ??? (at 8:09 beneath the logo of your backpack)

I’m just spotting your subtle little speed ramps as well. Nice way to transition. Now that I’ve finally stopped using my ancient Lightroom 5.7, I shall try to see if DxO Photolabs can blend Bracketed images. This software is amazing at eliminating noise from my MFT sensor. I no longer get sweaty palms turning that dial up to 3200 in low light conditions.

Haha! Well really it's a way of getting around me messing up my lines all the time!! 😆 That's great!! As I use lightroom, I often wonder about other programs when it comes to blending images. Can you stitch panos in that program as well?

As the dynamic range of modern cameras is 14EV, why not just take 2 pictures with 4 stops difference? If they are done immediately by the camera there almost no movement.

KZbin algorithm suggested this and when I saw that the video is only 8 days old I had to watch it as bracketing makes little to no sense at all in2023. Unless the scene has more than 5=6 stops to compensate it is a complete waste of time and data storage space; modern sensors have the capability to easily compensate for, only when and if you have to go -3/0/+3 and further it might be argued that bracketing could be useful, personally I don't, unless you want to produce the unrealistic images that were so popular 15 years ago. My Advise it just take one shot as bright/overexposed as possible without blowing the highlights (ETTR), then adjust everything else in post, you can darken any part of the image as you like and you still have 2-3 stops to lighten any shadows without introducing extra noise; total control on the entire picture instead of letting an HDR algorithm take control or waste time on a tonemapping dedicated program. I don't dismiss the technique totally, there are some extreme cases when it is useful and necessary, for example when you want to take a picture of an dark interior and keep details in a window frame of the exterior on a sunny day, it is an extra tool in the photographer bag of tricks, one of those tools that comes out of the bag one in every blue moon.
