    I’ve watched about 20-30 videos to try to understand camera/photography basics as I’m just getting into it, and this video explained things miles better than any of the others. Thank you so much

      Exactly the same for me, just got my own camera and trying to underdtand thing. This video really helped me understand!

    @Mel-jt5tj Před rokem +16

    GREAT FOR BEGINNERS! This was fantastic, overview and my understanding:
    1. Aperture affects background
    2. Shutter speed affects movement, and how much light is allowed in
    3. ISO affects light, magic potion to bring more light if needed.

    The eye analogy, real time examples explaining what setting work best situationally. 10/10, I’m excited and feel confident to go and purchase a camera and try things out referencing this video.

    I've been shooting for less than a year, and I say this is a great explanation. I watched a lot of other videos about the exposure triangle. I already understood it prior to watching this, but I was looking for the best video to recommend to an absolute beginner. This is definitely the one I'm sharing.

    As a Communication major who concentrated on TV/Film production, you explained this better than any of my professors. For years I struggled to grasp a down-to-earth concept on how to memorize these basic components. You did an amazing job in 14 minutes.
    I'm trying to alter my couple channel to have a more cinematic look similar to yours. Thanks for the guidance. #619journey

      😊😊 thanks a lot for your kind words. It means a lot, because sometimes you think you're making sense, but it doesn't always resonate with an audience. So knowing that even one person found it helpful is a big deal. Good luck with your channel.

    Nice but a bit tough for newbies. Explaining aperture and shutter with the eye analogy was great. Try sowing more examples and diagrams to explain.Still very good.

    Transitioning from a career in law to documentary filmmaking and of course taking the self-teaching approach. After so many attempts of trying to understand this, your video is the only one that has made sense for my way of learning. You had analogies and visual examples, properly timed. I took notes! Thanks so much for this and shout out to a fellow Jamaican (based on your accent, hopefully im not wrong :) )

  • @olowomorantemple-peter6266

    Thanks broo for this great job.
    I want to know more further about aperture in term of delpth of field; to have a very blury background again your subject, will the value number increase or decrease?
    For shutter speed in term of movement, if you want to have a clear image on motion, will the shutter value increase or decrease?

    • @CreativeTechLab
      @CreativeTechLab  Před 2 lety

      Thanks for watching. That's a tricky question to answer. Like I said in the video, aperture and shutter speed are expressed as fractions so bigger and smaller can seem counterintuitive. Like F2 is bigger than F4, because it's F/2 and F/4.
      All that said. When you're in your camera: smaller F stop numbers give you blurrier back grounds (1.4, 2, 2.8 etc). And for shutter 'larger' numbers for capturing motion: 1/250, 1/1000 etc.

    @Florianski Před rokem

    Little correction: iso does not change your exposure. The amount of light hitting the sensor stays the same but the sensor signal (including the noise) gets boosted. Increasing the iso has basically the same effect on your image as brightening it up afterwards in photoshop.
    The only ways to control the amount of actual light hitting the sensor (and thus change the exposure) are aperture and shutter speed.

    • @CreativeTechLab
      @CreativeTechLab  Před rokem

      Thanks for the clarification. For real world use it's still part of the equation.

  • @forsterl.stewart414
    @forsterl.stewart414 Před rokem

    A very important thing to realize is that in fact....No, ISO is not part of exposure. Shutter Speed and Aperture brighten your photo by physically capturing more light. Which is the amount of light falling on your sensor.
    ISO doesn't do that; instead, it essentially increases or decreases the sensitivity of your cameras sensor. So, don't consider it to be a component of the actual exposure.

    • @CreativeTechLab

      This make may sense in theory. But not for real world application.

    • @CreativeTechLab
      @CreativeTechLab  Před 3 lety

      Hi thanks for watching. I don’t have a specific video for exactly what you’re talking about. However with the principles from this video on exposure and this one on custom white balance: czcams.com/video/mUlnH44twwA/video.html It should point you in the right direction. What type of cameras are you using?

I am trying to get it right from the start before trashing out money for the rental, unfortunately I won't have xs time to experiment ahead. Video settings will be 4k 24/50, HLG2, iso set 100.
