[@kylelitwack]

Bruh if you're shooting a static scene with a tripod you should be using base iso of 100 or 50 depending on your camera. Higher iso introduces noise and distorts color.

[@kylelitwack]

That being said. Exposure bracketing is definitely the right way to do this and the results do look good.

[@suizidschlumpf2]

y, definetly allways use ISO 250 and aperture 9.0, since every room is the same at every time in any place. no comments on focal lenght etc.

[@LzysGraphics]

trying to be smart except they're clearly using a tripod, locking aperture allows him to ensure he has the correct amount of sharpness and depth of field in his shot, which is why he says to put it at 9.0, the ISO should remain low since you don't want any noise, and from there, since he's using shutter speed on a static shot, he can set it to whatever he wants and it'll have no effect. It's why he says how to get decent real estate shots, this will work for most places with a tripod.

[@trustnugget280]

@@LzysGraphics It's just so random that is has to be f9 and ISO 250. Could easily be f11 and ISO 100 so why does he tell us to choose exactly these settings

[@suizidschlumpf2]

@@LzysGraphics 1. im a designer/ photographer and im aware of all what you said. i do it nearly every day at my job. 2. aperture of 9.0 is not the best for sharpness for everyone. it depends on the lens. if you have a lens with a max aperture of 1.4f, you will have a much lower sweet spot. 3. you forgot, that there are fullframe and apsc cameras. if you put both cameras in the exact same position in the same room and the same time, you will have differences in depth of field. you need to consider the lens and focal lenght. 4. "the ISO should remain low since you don't want any noise..." yes. but why is he saying 250 and not put it very low? thats my point. its too specific to be true for everyone. in fact, if hes using a tripod, the ISO should be 80-100 then, since he can choose what ever shutterspeed he wants, to make it brighter. also you can see in his pictures, he is also capturing the outside. if your backyard is no desert and has moving trees or whatever, because of wind for example, you cant take an aperture of what ever you want, since the trees will be unsharp then. 5. "this will work for most places with a tripod." no it will not. he doesnt say at which time of the day you should shoot for example. and at this time of the year, the sky is cloudy with nearly no sun. its darker. and if your room isnt completely white, like this one, everything changes again. 5. even IF he would help most people with this, why not helping everyong by not going too specific and shortly explain why to use certain settings, so that everyone can adjust it to their own specific scenario.

​@@harveymanfrantinsingin7373 1. well, you should care and check your "facts" that you present here. 2. what now? is it "true" or not? my point was, that your sharpest point depends on the lens you have. F8-F11 is NOT allways the sharpest range!! this "rule of thumb" is outdated. lenses can have much wider apertures than F3.5 nowadays. for example, if you have a 50mm F1.4 lens, then its sweet spot is F2-F4. the rule of thumb for nearly every lens is 2-3 F stops down from your widest aperture. 3. well, he brought it up. but id say its kinda important since you dont allways want to have everything you can see outside in focus. 5. good luck with an aperture of F9 and the rest of his settings. especially when you have a mostly black/ dark grey interior. or maybe at night, for more moody shots. if its too dark, its blacked out. no dynamic range on this planet will safe you then. 5. again. shame on me.

[@firstnamelastname9955]

Tilt-shift lens, mirror lock-up (or mirrorless), f/8 or 11 with focus stacking, time-delay shutter or remote release, strobes with remote slave trigger for fill-light when/where necessary, reflectors, circular polarizer when/where necessary, white balance card, handheld incident meter with averaging feature, access to property at ideal time of day - these are all things that I observed pros using when I was assisting with interior photography for a fine homes magazine. Now-a-days, with the software and features available, you can get away with a lot less. Also, this isn't one-size-fits-all, some photogs were still using medium format cameras with normal focal lengths and hot-lights; some just used available light and would get creative with their staging to make it work.

[@justesmond]

@@jeffxd5029 First reason is that many Canon cameras perform well at iso 400 (with great colors). Second, even though I could get a good exposure at iso 100, having a higher iso allows me to have a slightly faster shutter speed and less chance for motion blur. The difference in noise is none on modern sensors so you lose nothing in terms of noise performance with a higher shutter speed and gain a sharper image while avoiding potential motion blur. I’ve done work for 3 real estate photo companies and iso 400 for my base image was always the recommendation. Do what works for you though.

Why not use base iso or the iso that your specific camera has the greatest dynamic range?

[@jubertbird9591]

First and foremost, one must have a 28 or 35mm focal length. Keep iso low, 500 or less, it doesn't matter a whole lot. Aperture F 8-12. Bring flash if you have it. It will save you some time, because you can get the correct exposure in one shot.

[@DMTStokes]

Don’t need to correct exposure for hdr photos dude… kinda why you bracket

[@mikedodd8487]

If I had a house like this and you used flash and single shot, you'd be out on your ass.

[@firstnamelastname9955]

28 or 35? No... 24mm or wider is going to be good for cramped interiors. You can shoot with a 17mm and correct distortion in post. I know Canon makes a TS 35mm, but you can also adapt other, wider lenses with a TS adapter and then get in-camera perspective control with a wider focal length. I don't think 35mm is very practical for most interiors unless you are stitching.

This is way too general, it always depends on the room you are in, the amount of light you have access to, and the camera you are using. For example for a higher megapixel camera, you always want the lowest ISO possible as to create the cleanest look possible with no noise present.

[@LzysGraphics]

It's not to general, he's clearly specified this works for most real estate shots, no one's going to be shooting their real estate photos in zero lighting, meaning you're likely to be okay on 250 ISO, the aperture remains the same since it's a static scene with no moving objects meaning he can use his shutter speed to adjust exposure, that way he can ensure a good depth of field and good sharpness throughout.

[@chas1878]

This is such a bad tutorial from a supposed "photographer" lmao. No mention of the lens (in turn, why you choose f9), image file and why you're shooting at anything above ISO100. It's missing basic information for beginners but it also doesn't teach anything to experienced photographers

[@VillyP]

I mean, I think any experienced photographer would understand why to everything you just mentioned. Lens, doesn't matter, I'm assuming wider the better but as long as the lens fits the space in the room. F9 to keep everything on focus. Wider apertures means less in focus. F7.1 and above makes it sharper to an extent. F9 is a great spot. Image file obviously RAW. And anything ISO like, 1600 or under depending on camera you're still getting little to no Noise. Duh

Better settings would be ISO 100…. 250 is a bit much for indoors especially with a tripod.. F/11 to 16. Everything will be in focus and no blurry edges rather than at f/9. Real estate photography you’re mostly just trying to expose the outside, also shoot in aperture priority because your F stops are going to change with different exposures in manual mode, and it will be difficult for them to blend in post.

[@Gr33n1872]

F7.1 is all you need (using a wide angle, everything is in focus unless you’re outside shooting mountains and foreground). Iso 100 isn’t used because it increases shutter time. Higher iso plus wider aperture decreases the time even more. Also, what camera are you using where your aperture is changing in manual mode?

[@j-riz7513]

@@Gr33n1872 Very Interesting. Sure F/7.1 can be used, any f stop could work when you shoot with a wide angle above f5.6. Anything below that is not the best idea but also depends on your lens glass. When you use ( AP )Aperture Priority Mode you can select your aperture and the camera will automatically set the shutter speed for all 3 bracketed shots , which will all be on the same F stop you choose. ISO 100 is also best for one less grain when post processing and blending all image’s together will always cause some grainy images. You’re using a tripod , not shooting hand held lol. Why would it matter how long the shutter speeds are ? Unless u have moving clouds outside the window or objects then yes crank up that ISO… shooting In Manual mode .
