You are welcome, thank you.

Thanks for watching, glad you are enjoying the videos.

Hi Ako, I have plans for a landscape video later in the year, thanks for the suggestion.

[@delos2581968]

Once again perfect, exact and simple words to explain what to most of us begginers seems like mount everest. Thank you. Great job as always.

[@photogenius]

Thanks for watching and supporting my channel.

[@ThorstenAltmann]

Struggling for several days not getting managed to change my shutterspeed to higher than 1/30s in live view, you actually saved my life. Thumbs up and subscribed. Your way of explaining things is brilliant.

[@photogenius]

Happy to help, thanks for the feedback and for watching - your support is very much appreciated.

[@DJProPlusMax]

That manual movie setting!! Thanks for pointing that out. Could have come in handy just today.

[@StuYorks07]

I really enjoy watching your videos on dslr photography. You explain things simply and clearly and you do not go too fast to understand. Thank you.

[@photogenius]

Thanks for the feedback Stuart, very much appreciated. Paul 👍

[@psbsynthmusic]

Absolutely spot on tutorial ! Just perfect for everyone to understand quickly all those concepts under discussion. Million thanks, Paul !

[@mongoose9594]

Liked and subscribed. I’ve only been using about 25% of the live view functionality until I watched your video. Many thanks !

[@photogenius]

Thanks for the sub! Appreciated 👍

[@stevedickinson765]

Paul you're a saint,the best tutorials I've ever watched,if only you could do something for my memory.Please keep up the good work.

[@sgtgohara]

Very nicely produced and easy to follow. Maybe you could start a contest for subscribers to submit their best work and critique it. Would like to see a tutorial on the D3500 and how to set it up for the best shooting. Would like to see if the D3500/D70 can be used with a remote. Also good to see would be an explanation of the different lenses and what APS and such designations mean and which camera can use what lenses, there are a lot out there and all we have to go by is if the lens being considered for purchase will work in your camera based on model, thanks mate!

[@rodschweiger4195]

Paul, that was great. I will be watching this video often to reinforce the lessons you covered. Thanks so much. Love videos specific to the D3500.

[@photogenius]

Thank you Rod, appreciate the support.

[@dirkgibbens377]

Hi Paul. Another very helpful video as always. I realize this is an old one, so maybe you don't keep up with comments on it anymore, but if you do.... at the 8:22 mark in the video, as you increase shutter speed you can see the effect (darkening) on the Live View screen real time. I'm trying to do the same on my Nikon D5600, but when I increase or decrease the shutter speed there is no real time change to the Live View display. Is there another setting I'm missing? Whether you respond or not, thanks for all your helpful videos. I think it's great how you create so many of them using both Nikon and Canon products to be more helpful to the broader photography community! Cheers!

[@HarshSingh-fq6tm]

You've covered literally covered everything on your channel but i thinl you should also make an video on metering modes on dslr and when and how to use it will be really informative.Great video though yet again🔥

[@photogenius]

Thanks for the suggestion 👍👍👍

Thnx sir , nice explanation 👌🏻👍🏻Always deserve like button thousand times👍🏻

[@patelgulamahmed1]

Just exploring my new (used) D3400. This video has really helped to have overview of the various features. Fantastic presentation. Thanks Mr Genius.

[@kaushaljha6966]

Loved it, some of these tricks, i wasnt even aware of even after using the camera for years

[@enockmashabela8464]

Thank you so much champ I've learned a lot from this video as a new beginner

[@wodandewael3613]

Another really handy thing to notice is using your exposure compensation via live view. It gives you a really representive example of your photo and can be really handy for big contrast f.e. a white bird in a darker area

[@ItchyThirdEye-j6u]

another awesome simple, clear explination for us newbys. thanks.

[@luisso9893]

Excellent video tutorial, thanks so much, very useful!!!!

[@ShaunakHub]

Thanks for your videos during these tough times

[@photogenius]

Thanks for watching Shaunak.

[@wodandewael3613]

Woow what a clear video! Just one more question: when using live view my shutter speed works the other way around... having a higher one takes longer and lets more light in, and the other wat around.... really weird and confusing...

[@pixelpret712]

Great and usefull D3500 video. Thanks from Belgium!

[@Patrickel300]

Excellent training and explanation of Nikon DSLR. You explain clearly and professionally. Thank you for sharing. I bought a second hand Nikon and finally thanks to you figured out why the Lightmeter did not function properly. The previous owner changed the aperture correction and flash correction. I did a reset but factory settings dont return on all changed parameters.

[@star_mary15]

Thanks for this sir. In live view mode, can we capture using AF-S or AF-F mode? Mine cannot capture

[@photogenius]

I just want to add that that this video was inspired by Muneeb Khan - thanks for suggesting the content. Follow Munneb on Insta @emmkay93 Paul @ Photo Genius.

hi paul I have a Nikon D750 would it be possible to post some video content on the higher end Nikon bodies?great channel by the way paul .excellent.

[@photogenius]

Hi Stephen. I would be interested in featuring higher end cameras, but I do not have a D750 myself to feature. Thank you for supporting my channel - it is very much appreciated. #staysafe #stayhome

[@patcostello25]

Hi very ,very new to cameras, loving your videos , decided to purchase the Nikon d3500, but in lockdown can’t get the information. I have seen the d3500 but there seems to be two models, could you please explain the difference between the following. D3500 AF P VR /. and the D3500 AF-P GVR. Thanks in advance. Pat here in UK

[@photogenius]

Hi Pat, The cameras are the same as there is only one version of the D3500. The rest of the info (AF P VR and AF-P G VR) refers to the lens that comes with the camera, and again I think it's just the same lens only some listings have include a G in the description.

[@docpramod]

Paul, you have enormously helped me enjoy my nikon d35. Could you please do a video on macro photography, incase you have done already, kindly share the link.

[@earavichandran]

Great video photogenius. Awesome facts. Is it possible to use the Histogram in liveview in D3400?

[@photogenius]

Hi Ravi, unfortunately no option to view the Histogram when using LV mode.

[@earavichandran]

@@photogenius Thanks for your valuable reply.

[@mikeries8549]

My photo quality improved when I went away from using live view. I was surprised. Them little red dots are amazing once you learn what they do.

[@shaun1961hodge]

Hi Paul, really enjoy your videos. I have a question for you on my Nikon D500. When setting the shutter speed after the "bulb" there is a setting called "--". Whats is this for? Thanks in advance

[@barrygiddey9139]

Interesting as always Paul,Thanks 👍

[@photogenius]

Thanks Barry - keep safe.

[@RorysNanaLowe]

When you set up your settings to do a shoot, do they default back to the original settings when the camera is turned off? Does it have preset setting options for video and photos?

[@margueritelahaye7457]

Thank you very much for this video, which makes using live view look easy. I've had my Nikon D5600 for three years, but I've always stuck to using the viewfinder, because I don't always understand the instructions in the D5600 manual.

[@gopinathnair9716]

Great job done. Too much to grasp for a beginner but will help as one practices and gains experience to almost become a professional .🙂👍

[@odaineduncan4820]

Great tutorial. I didn't know the D3500 was capable of those features.

[@keeshandcarl]

Hi. Please help me decide on which camera will I buy. It will be my first camera and I’m choosing between D5600 or 800D. Rooting for 800d because of dual pixel af but it worries me regarding the IQ and i low light. Does it really fall behind the IQ of D5600? Thank you

[@photogenius]

Hi Carl, although I have not tested these cameras side by side, I would definitely be going for the Canon 800D. They have the same resolution so image quality should be very similar, but the Canon beats the Nikon for features. Thanks for watching, please consider subscribing (if you haven't already) 🙂

Hi paul,to do rack focus i understood we have do be in full manual mode M,and use manual focus by pressing i button,but do we need to change manual setting to on or off from the main menu??which u showed at 8.40,thank you

[@photogenius]

What's important to understand is that focus and exposure are very seperate - so you can use manual focus in any camera mode including auto if you wish. Hope that helps.

[@acekat7009]

@@photogenius hi paul,i understood watching your video twice regarding rack focus,i liked it very much thank you for a cool tip,i would like to ask one problem i am encountering regarding video.when practicing a video i chose AF-F focus mode and Tracking as u said,but when my subject is moving its tracking it quite well with the red square boxes but not in focus when it goes from front to back,do i have to half press shutter button when subject moves front to back??i thought with AF-F and tracking it should focus the subject when it moves from front to back or sideways without me having to half press shutter button, every time it cant find focus.hope you have some tips for this problem i am facing right now.thank u again

Photo Genius hi thanks I don’t shoot effects anymore it’s manual I realised shooting effects was way to over saturated I’ve learned a lot on your channel thank you!

[@Ahhmathilda]

thanks for the video. I have nikon D5100 and there is no such option as manual movie settings on the movie settings side. the only thing appears is the movie quality. is there another option that I can use?

[@Ahhmathilda]

OHH I just figured out there is no need for such setting changes. I tried pressing +/- and it let me change the F thanks!!

[@davidlong3824]

[@shitalchandrap7987]

Mr photo genius , first and foremost advise us if it's worth buying a DSLR. Old technology instead of new technology mirrorless with evf

[@photogenius]

Mirrorless is definitely going to be the future - but DSLR's like the D3500 and Canon EOS 1500D represent better value for money.

Do You have a tutorial video for dslr d3200?

[@anna_murawski]

My d5300 takes pictures so so slowly on live view... is there anything I can do to change this? X

[@photogenius]

Live view will be slower - so consider using the viewfinder more, unless there us a particular reason for using the live view you will find the viewfinder does it all PLUS focus and taking photos will be much quicker. Hope that helps.

[@edacavus6267]

I have the nikon d5600. Even with the movie setting off it doesn't show you in live view how the picture will turn out according to the exposure adjustments (aperature, iso and shutter speed) and i think that really sucks!

My D5300 in live view takes 2-2.5 seconds to complete a photo capture. Even if the Shutter is at 1/500.Any idea, how to speed it up?

I hooked my camera to a simple computer monitor with an HDMI cable so that I can see the eye I'm taking a picture of on the big monitor in order to focus better and the monitor makes a loud noise. The monitor is not hooked up to a computer. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

how to set in Nikon show image immediately after shooting? becoz my Nikon taking too much time in live view after taking picture.
