Softy / Soft release button : this accessory may make you fail your photos - IN ENGLISH

[@Brysengus]

Wow! someone that finally said it! i thought i was me, i was wondering why most of my pictures came out so blurry and now i found out why. Thank you so much! you helped me a lot, finally someone that speaks the true.

[@EricGibaud]

Thank you very much for your comment!

[@jpm5205]

lol That's not the reason your pictures are blurry.

[@estogaza1]

You just saved me a hundrud bucks from buying fancy soft shutter release. On top of that, I gain knowledge how to press shutter button correctly. Thanks Mr Eric!

[@NetvoTV]

Is there a button that cover the hole while sill have stability and not stick out tat tall like these soft release button?

[@Captain-Yeti]

dude your pink beard looks so cool! plus that mustache looks EPIC!!!

[@EricGibaud]

Lol! Thank you!

[@SpencerLupul]

I think I’ve shared this video almost 10 times in different Facebook groups…. great tip! Wish it was discussed more often

[@andrecsx]

Perfect point, thanks to you I avoided a totally useless embellishment for my camera.

[@cronufc]

I can see this is you arch your finger to use the tip of your finger, but not if you use the flat part of the middle of your finger. I find the soft shutter release useful if you have a small body and big hands, if anything, for me at least, i find it makes shooting more stable and comfortable

[@Robin-theoneandonly]

Been searching for a description of the right technique to use the trigger. Hard to find. Thanks!

[@EricGibaud]

Thanks for watching!

[@iJerrrrrry]

Thanks, almost fell into the trap of getting one thinking it would be useful

[@johnhannon7318]

Thanks! I was considering one, but not now. Actually, the more I look at them, the more I find that they detract from the nice lines that are already a part of the cameras.

[@EricGibaud]

Thank you for your comment

[@PimentaDaNeyde]

It's possible you made these experience because of the concave button. I did not make this experience with the convex button-style.

[@PaulsMedia2024]

Only reason I can think of adding a "soft realse" is to stop dirt entering the shutter button.

[@wosam]

Very clear speech !!! Much better than other channels!!! God blesses you mate

[@nougat0815]

This is what youtube is for :) Thanks for the honest wisdom

[@EricGibaud]

Thank you!

[@samking4179]

Great video! Love the accent! Diving into your video archive now! Thank you for info on the soft shutter and the technique!

[@wh0tube]

Thank you for your insight 🙏 But how else would I get a red button on my camera? I can’t afford a Leica! Maybe a round red sticker on the lens?!😁

[@hukumongdu]

Hmm.. i think you have a point, but not sure how much of a difference it will actually make 😄 thanks for the video and cool mustache!!

[@lsamoa]

Merci! Vous m'avez épargné beaucoup de soucis, j'étais sur le point de commander ce bouton mais heureusement j'ai vu votre vidéo avant et maintenant je l'ai rayé de ma liste. Ouf!

[@sebastianmillmaker]

Thank you for the explaination, clear story!

[@EricGibaud]

thank you for watching

[@norlmanlo343]

Buy the black colors 5mm diameter 3M adhesive convex round silicon pad would do. Cheap and prevent dust stuck in the shutter hole.

[@Atokxn]

Wow super interesting thanks Eric never heard about that !

[@chinense1976]

Fantastic information Eric, thank you very much for helping me avoid a mistake after I bought a cute red soft button for my new Leica Q3.

[@EricGibaud]

Thank you for your comment

[@SimonSlav-GameMakingJourney]

Is this the "Rolling Shutter Motion" everyone is hyped about? 😂

[@benjamindeguzman8509]

Thank you for the tip. I was seriously thinking about it.

[@petersonlee26]

I think this might be my issue with my x100vi

[@solomonliu7354]

but he didn't really show or give any solid evidence that told that this is the sole reason for blurry photos right?

[@EricGibaud]

You have to make your own tests as each person has a different stability. But when you reach the minimum speed you can get without blur, then put the button and shoot again to compare yourself

[@ToniLovesSkateboarding]

back button focus ;) problem solved

[@rlarsen4562]

Yes ! Does the added thumb-rest interfere with back button AF ?

[@Isher13]

Great advice

[@EricGibaud]

Thank you

[@GPadugan]

You should not be focusing with the shutter button in the first place. Back button focus is a much better way to shoot and allows you to add the soft shutter color buttons. Really there is no reason in digital photography to even have a threaded shutter button because there are better remote releases available.

[@EricGibaud]

I disagree, it all depends on the camera ergonomics, on some of my cameras I use back button and on others I don’t, on the X100 serie I don’t find the back button ideally placed and it is also too small so I prefer standard shutter button. Anyway what I explain is about trigging, so no matter if you use back button or not, the problem using this accessory will still be the same

[@ridhwannasution5085]

Now mine stuck in that place 😂 how to remove it

[@EricGibaud]

Ouch!

[@ridhwannasution5085]

@@EricGibaud is it safe to unscrew it using mechanical tool ? Or it will remove the whole switch

[@robertsacamano]

@@ridhwannasution5085 maybe put a bit of WD-40 on there wait a few seconds and try unscrewing again with your hand

[@craigkoch4585]

I say dump the camera with the stuck shutter button and get yourself a new Leica 😊Q3

[@WilsonOrtiz]

cool thanks for the advice! it better with the original :-)

[@EricGibaud]

thank you for your comment

[@SuperSlackOff]

Thank you for this bit of info, really helpful

[@LeopoldoManuelRamirezMena]

So you get soft pictures 😂

[@darrylatkins5049]

I only shoot manual focus
