1. @1:04...Hold the camera correctly. Tucked, tripod or lean against something sturdy 2. @2:20...Single Shot or Continuous Auto Focus 3. @4:00...Increase your ISO..The higher the number the better for low light shooting 4. @5:51...Adjusting your "F" Stop Number.

[@pauldeutsch2044]

5. Increase the shutter speed. Don't be afraid of higher shutter speeds.

This digital camera course is excellent and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to improve their photography. A very happy course participant. One other great thing is the course is always available to you to revisit the modules.

[@TalkingHands308]

Also, when using a high ISO, take multiple photos of the same object. I say 4 or more is good, the more the merrier. Because that grain that you see in high ISO is random, what happens is when you take multiple pictures the grain would appear in different places. In photoshop there's a way to combine the photos where only shared pixels would be kept, so the random grain would be mostly eliminated. You do this by loading all of the photos into a stack, basically a bunch of layers overlapping each other, use Photoshop's auto-align feature to line them all up, convert to smart object, then use stack mode mean or median. I've tried both and they pretty much look identical, so use whichever. This works most of the time to get rid of the grain you get when using a high ISO.

[@DilipKumarkeralahome]

Talking Hands Brilliant! I will try it. The grains have been holding me to increase the ISO more than 800!

[@TalkingHands308]

@@DilipKumarkeralahome I do that trick for any low-light photo I need to take where I don't have a tripod. Obviously using a tripod and a low ISO/long shutter would be the best solution for the best quality, but this method comes really close.

[@DilipKumarkeralahome]

Talking Hands Thanks. Yes, to learn one more method will always be a blessing!👍👍👍

[@obsidianwing]

Also a Tip : Wen havin too much Noise in the Picture add extra Noise with Gaussian Normal spreading 2-3 %. Merge the Filter down than use Noise reduction Filter, it will be way easier to Remove the Noise now. Work good for very grainy Images when theres no RAW or not a Good Noise reduction Filter in your Image Processing Program. Lightroom and Affininty Photo are very good Partners for Noise Removal

2:26 I just shifted my setting to one shot focus. I’ve been using shutter priority for a while, and I’ve gotten a battery grip, too. I have a Canon Rebel T2i.

[@HR-wd6cw]

To the beginners, the ISO "trick" does help but if you go too far (like ISO 6400) the efforts may be cancelled out by the fact you now have some noise to remove from your image. So your image may be "sharp" but the noise reduction process has to blur the image a bit to clean up the noise. Just something to watch out for. Most cameras are OK up to around ISO 3200 to 6400 but much beyond that, you're looking at a fair amount of noise to deal with. Also if you're shooting on something stabilized, like a tripod, TURN OFF YOUR IMAGE STABILIZATION. This can lead to slightly blurry images in some cases. image stabilization is designed for when you are hand holding (primarily in low light or at slow shutter speeds) but when you're on a tripod, the camera isn't really moving. The only except to turning this off is if there is wind that is moving the camera on the tripod. Then you may want to consider leaving it on.

[@karthikks9976]

Great info sir. Can you pls tell me diff. between exposure comp. and ISO

[@HR-wd6cw]

I'll answer this for you: Exposure compensation allows you to override the shutter speed (but not the aperture or ISO) when shooting in Aperture priority mode thus allowing you to brighten or darken the image (usually in 1/3, 1/2 or full stops of light) without changing your aperture (and thus, your depth of field). ISO is just the sensitivity of the sensor (so at ISO 200 the sensor is twice as sensitive, and thus needs half the amount of time to capture light, as ISO 100 does). Exposure compensation does not change your ISO or aperture--only adjusts the shutter speed (which is also why Exposure Compensation is not available in manual mode because you would just make these changes manually).

Hi dillip Kumar how are you I notice when I use a low iso like 100 for my Fuji film camera s1000fd it takes for the picture to load a long time so I have changed my iso to 400 much better.

[@tillbodd]

Yes, I apply these rules but..... don’t forget about how you press the shutter button. My blurriest are usually because I press rather than squeeze the button. I often use a cable release for hand held shots as you can hold the camera steady and still use it by adjusting you grip of the camera body

[@PhilJonesIII]

I photograph flowers a lot so it's up close and personal most of the time. Mostly, I use a tripod because even on wind-free days, even convection can move the subject. Even with a tripod, I use the shutter-delay. Two seconds is more than enough but it also works for hand-held. That two-second is enough time to finish any movement caused by pressing/squeezing the shutter.

Thanks, still have an issue with my Canon Camera. It can only go up to F8.0 so some of your options, I can do? Is there a solution other than buying a better camera? I have a Canon SX60HS.

[@daesong1378]

There's not really anything you can do about Fstop ranges on your camera, but F8 should be sufficient to get a sharp image and wide depth of field for your camera. This video is very basic and made for beginners so there's alot of concepts that aren't expanded upon. For example for your camera with F8 it should be fine because its a 35mm equivalent focal length, on the opposite side of the spectrum a 300mm lens shooting at F8 would have a much shallower depth of field and as a result be more difficult to nail focus and get a sharp image on. That being said if you want more create control you will definitely want to upgrade to a DSLR or Mirrorless interchangeable lens camera system, as the fstop range on your camera F3.4-F8 is very restrictive.

From iso.org: "Because 'International Organization for Standardization' would have different acronyms in different languages (IOS in English, OIN in French for Organisation Internationale de Normalisation), our founders decided to give it the short form ISO. ISO is derived from the Greek isos, meaning equal. Whatever the country, whatever the language, we are always ISO." It's a word 'iso', not an acronym 'I-S-O'. Think isometric, isochronal or isosceles.
