    Thank you for watching this video on 25 technical photography terms that I think everyone (especially beginners) should know. Today, there's so much misinformation about how photography works: the science, theory, and technology behind how images are formed. In this video I wanted to provide not only the definitions of key photography concepts, but how they relate to each other, gradually explaining the photo-taking process as a whole.
    This was my first voiceover, so let me know what you thought in the comments below. I plan to continue voicing my own videos now; it's about time my channel knows a little bit about me.
    ________________________________________________________________________________________________
    I'm adding an errors and clarifications segment to my video descriptions because often in my research, certain things elude me.
    Errors:
    Lightroom & Photoshop are mis-labeled (at 8:30)
    The Pros/Cons for Auto Mode stay on-screen for Shutter Priority Mode (at 9:33)
    (for the Pros/Cons for Shutter Priority Mode, read the transcription provided above)
    Clarifications:
    ISO is not an "acronym" but a mere shortening of the organization's name.
    "DOF does not describe the depth of the part of the image that is in focus. It describes the depth of the part of the image in which points are adequately sharp. Only objects at one specific distance are in focus, so the depth of points in focus is always 0. An object in a scene is in focus if all the light from a point on the object is refracted to a point on the image. With an optically perfect lens, this occurs only with points a specific distance from the optical center of the lens. Any points closer to or farther from that optical center have their light refracted into a blur circle on the image. The farther the object is from the distance at which points are are in focus, the larger is the blur circle. When the image is printed or displayed, a blur circle is either so small that the human observer cannot tell the circle from a point, or large enough that that the observer can tell the circle from a point. When the circle is observably different from a point, that part of the image seems blurry. When the blur circle is small enough to be indistinguishable from a point, it is called adequately sharp. The DOF describes that part of the image in which blur circles are adequately sharp. The DOF of an image depends on several factors, including the visual acuity of the observer, the print or display size, and the viewing distance. To promote comparability of DOF between images, standard observer acuity of 6/6, print size of 8" x 10", and viewing distance of the image diagonal are often assumed." - FingerPainter from DPREVIEW

    Didn't came back to this channel since the ISO/aperture/Shutter Speed video in which I congratulate you for being the FIRST (and as far as I know the only) one into having the animation skills and the intelligence to do 3 rather straightforwards concepts into CLEAR explanations.
    And here you have achieved that AGAIN.
    I missed you.
    Keep the amazing work.

    Just ran across your channel while trying to put together a list of videos I can point people to when they are starting out or moving from their phone to a mirrorless or dslr camera. I am very happy to see that you actually explain what ISO is and what it does. To many people believe that it is sensitivity. I also cannot understand why anyone would give you a thumbs down on this video.

    • @Apalapse
      @Apalapse  Před 3 lety

      Thank you! Yes, the misconception surrounding ISO is one that I have encountered not in online articles but on CZcams turotials and even in the three photography classes I have taken in college... it's not hard to understand ISO is just amplification, but most photography teachers don't teach it because it's "confusing," when really, saying ISO is sensitivity is more confusing IMO.

    Apalapse, I'm glad you use your own voice now; nice to meet you! Since you asked, your speech pattern is very steady, which can challenge some people's attention span, especially nowadays, but you have a voice strong in character. Your dispensing of information is very efficient and effective, explanations concise; this makes every word worth hearing. What you say to be your opinion near the end I find objectively true, and the way you speak accentuates the objectivity of factual statements.
