Thanks so much Steven! It's great to hear you are appreciating the work I put into my videos. Although with this one, I got up at 3am, drove 2 hours to one location, and it was pouring with rain, then ran out of fuel in my car ... had to wait at the petrol station for it to open, then drove another 2 hours to get out from under the rainclouds!! 😆 In saying that, it was quite rewarding when it all started to come together!! ... and if you look closely, in the last scene, the rain had caught me up and it had started again ... But I do love a challenge!! 😆😆 Thanks for watching 😁👍

Good tips, a few more I can think of are: - I've found long tripod spikes can help especially on soft ground. - If you're on very soft ground like wet sand you can use CD's to stop your tripod sinking and causing motion blur. - Longer focal lengths will amplify heat ripples. - Check if your vibration reduction/image stabilisation (VR/IS) is on or off. Sometimes this can cause motion blur if left on when on a tripod, but it depends on the camera - some automatically turn off when it detects it's on a tripod, some don't.
@mikesphotography Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the extra tips! Heat ripples are an issue in hotter countries and on those hot summer days, but if you get up early enough, they should pose too much of a problem. As for turning the IS off, that was one of the first things I spoke about but referred more to DSLRs as in modern lenses and cameras, they seem to have remedied this problem. I did a video on this very thing a few years ago where I tested image stabilisation out when using a tripod. Check it out when you have a few moments: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKXPnH-Kas56aNk Spikes and old CDs are great for those rough or sandy terrains and well worth having in your bag. Thanks for watching 😁👍

Cheers Paul! Haha! I mentioned sheltering from the wind, but not to not go out in them! 😆 I did think of you when I sat down to film at the picnic table!! 😆😆 Makes complete sense. 👍 You're right there with the focussing systems. I suppose it is a case of just checking the shot after you have taken it, until you are confident about using your specific camera/lens combo. From what I understand about the AF micro adjustment option, it is for adapted A mount lenses with the LA-EA5 adapter. I remember owning a sigma 70-200mm and that front focussed a little on my old Canon 7D. That was very annoying ... It doesn't seem to be as much of a problem any more, although I was photographing kitesurfers then and now with landscapes and headshots, the process is a lot more calculated. 😁👍

@mikesphotography Жыл бұрын
Good question Paul. I think nowadays most cameras have an ISO range limit, and also an "ISO auto min shutter speed" setting as well. When there is room to spare with your shutter speed (in aperture priority) it will keep the ISO to its lowest. Then when you get to the minimum shutter speed set, it will start to raise ISO. Then once it has reached the maximum ISO set, it will start to drop the shutter speed again. That's how I understand that it works in the Sony cameras at least ...

I agree to a certain extent that there are a lot of similar videos out there covering similar topics. But that isn't the whole story, is it? Mike's work is definitely Sony orientated - we can forgive him for this 😂- which appeals to the Sony owners (I'm not one, I have Fuji). Also, there is delivery of the content - some of the others maybe boring, not as articulate in the detail or have missed the point completely. The thing is, I believe it is good to have variety and we will all gravitate to what it is we feel comfortable with or entertained by. Henry Ford made a car a few years back... thank god we didn't just stick to that model and that other people had the good sense to redevelop and redesign what it is a car should be 😉. Or we could be more modern in our observations and use the news as our comparison subject. There are many many news outlets pretty much covering the same headline stories. Yet we don't complain about the channels we don't watch, or maybe you do, we just watch the one that is familiar to us for whatever reason that may be. Anyhow, hope you now know how to take a sharp photo! Lots of love from the 'UK'.
