Probably the best crash course in manual mode I've ever seen.
More of these would be great. Thanks, Pat!
These videos are so great, appreciate the Pat Kay lessons
Could you please make a video on picking the right gadget and setup. Especially for developing countries where people run on small savings. Also, what camera on should pick for a particular setting (Travel, Wedding, Fashion)?
Perfect summary for me and my level right now! You’re doing incredible good videos and i love your style as well! Big ups for you!
Always love your style, particularly liked your use of the term "gain" for ISO in this one. Makes it more intuitive for why there's noise in higher ISO, like more distortion with music when you're cranking it through weak amplifiers or speakers. Was watching a Simon d'Entremont video recently and he was explaining that's why high megapixel full frame cameras could be worth it (depending what you shoot), because they're like a powerful amp and speaker and help control noise\distortion when you're up at an extreme ISO.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Thanks for your content! 🔥🔥🔥
thank you for these great videos you're working on for beginners helping us
Thanks for the free content! Learned so much from you
Great video about the basics that we need to be reminded of.
I just got the Sony a7iv is so many settings so confused n everybody videos talk like everyone is born with a camera n there hands need lot more help I been using iPhone for long time my first real camera don’t know what I’m doing wrong sometimes I’m taking good pictures than real bad pictures NEED HELP
Perfect explanation!!
You the best 😊
When you put your ISO on auto, do you set a minimum and maximum setting for the ISO?
I have a question about my travels next week
I’m trying to choose between a 18-135mm or 55-250mm
I’m already bringing a fisheye lens a pancake lens and the nifty 50 so I’m not sure how to complete my kit, I’m leaning towards 55-250mm but do you ever find yourself wanting an everything walk around lens?
Thanks for your help you always put me into perspective and I’m so grateful ❤
more reach with 250mm kinda makes sense to me if you have a fisheye and pancake and 50mm

Just commenting to appease the algorithm
haha you the mvp
I shoot in manual 100% of the time.
I even did this when I first started with a compact camera. I remember when I got a Full-Frame (A7iv) thinking 🤔 this is going to be more complicated this is a real camera.
However in reality it was the opposite It was easier 😂 Everything about it was way better. So many well place knobs dials buttons and wheels. I can adjust everything without even thinking about it.
Instead of using auto ISO in manual mode, is there any pro and cons setting the ISO auto min SS instead to tell the camea what my minimum shutter speed i want so that i can just to focus on aperture?
Agreed, shooting manual does help beginners immensely. One can learn how to be still (even better than while using semi auto), and get a better sense of controlling the focal plane. Can even go a step further and adapt vintage lenses that lock you in manual, and go for lens-specific effects that expand your creative horizons a bit more. Great vid, Pat 🔥
keep up the great work!

You have no idea how much you have helped me in understanding and fathoming the concept of good photography. Though Im not a photographer, I still use the concepts of visual hierarchy to sketch or visual story telling. I ve been using photo mode in video games to test and play around with alot of the concepts you introduced.
watched, inspired and bought my first camera. 🤜🏻🤛🏻
OK, at the risk of making myself unpopular here: I would NEVER permanently use a camera that doesn't give you any help.
I own a Leica M3 without a light meter and it's no fun to take photos with it. The rate of successful pictures is too low and I don't feel like wasting hundreds of euros on film until I get the hang of it and my eyes can replace a light meter.
I still have an OLYMPUS OM-2 which has a built-in light meter and aperture priority. You can actually take photos with it.
With my modern cameras: If I want to capture or accentuate movement: Aperture priority. If I want to work with depth of field: Aperture priority. If I just want to document something: Fully automatic. With the other parameters, such as ISO, you set sensible limits for the camera and you're good to go - personally, I can't think of any reasons to ever shoot manually.
Like you said: One parameter is usually more important than the others.
First again :D
haha you got it!
