@Pierre T. Lambert My favorite focusing mode is back button focus. I detach the focus activation from the shutter button to give me more control. It comes in very handy for shooting action. When I know my subject is in the focus zone, I can shoot quickly and not worry the camera will stop me from taking a picture because it may get confused to what is in focus.
@Pierre T. Lambert
my absolutely favourite focus mode is the so-called "Back-Button Autofocus" (BBAF) mode which is a mixture of managing AF-S + AF-C modes, I never focus via shutter button
my three absolut helpful tips for sharp images:
1) never buy or use cameras without a viewfinder (+ diopter adjustment) and prefer the viewfinder over the monitor because of No. 2
2) learn and use effective camera holding techniques which help capture sharper images ( czcams.com/video/EDsx3-FWfwk/video.html with a little bit of thinking and training this technique works for everyone no matter whether you`re a right-eye or left-eye shooter or you can switch easily, but it minimizes your fails)
3) use a tripod or a monopod as often as possible, that`s the easiest and perfect way to always get sharp photos under all circumstances, especially when using Live View, with a backpack it`s easy to always carry a lightweight but effective tripod with you, there are models aviable for every need, using a tripod or monopod has nothing to do with the focal length you use and on the other side pros can catch sharper images as you even with longer hand-held focal lengths because they´ve trained it and they are used to it
of course I use Manual AF mode when the automatic modes fail for whatever reasons or when I shoot macros, table tops, food, products, landscapes, architecture or even portraits especially with wide open aperture + longer focal lengths, street photography with short focal lengths (24 or 35 mm FF, focus once set manual in relation to the aperture + depth of field, fixed with tape, done, or I use one of my elder non AF lenses) or when I have to photograph causing as less noise as possible (wildlife, special performances or events), but it all depends on the subject, the circumstances and of course my personal mood (the main factor in my photography !!)
Great vid man
Jürgen Kaßnitz I’m trying to take self portraits using my Sony a6000 on a tripod-self timer but they seem to be out of focus.. any tips how to avoid that?
Also use back button focus. Really prefer now that I m used to it. Allows me to keep focus in afs-c and control when I want it to continually focus (moving subject) or stay put. Also avoid the random focus on the bamboo tree in the background problem you mentioned that can happen at any time with the shutter button focus
And a shutter speed of at least double the focal length of the lens if handheld. 50mm 1/100 sec, 100mm 1/200th sec etc.
Yeap! :)
ps: New video is out, enjoy! czcams.com/video/EbO1rskM_AA/video.html
Buying a Sigma Art Lens, checking on DXO Mark wich is the best F number and focal length, multiply by 4 the shutter when you have a 50mp camera, this video is the last and show me this guy is an idiot
What about if there´s crop factor involved? CMOS etc.
@@DatFunnyPerson Then the shutter should be X4 for a m4/3 camera and in between for an APSC.
@@canturgan if you have a lense with optical image stabilization and in body stabilization you definitivly dont need to double your shutter speed comapred to the focal length
Pierre - you are an excellent teacher. Focus is such a huge subject and you have simplified and explained it very logically in a few minutes. Kudos to you!!!
0:50 “player joins lobby”
😂
hahah the bamboo is always sharp and i'm never sharp!
Haha! Well part 2 is ready for you!!! czcams.com/video/rXOC7wgC0yw/video.html enjoy :)
Bro what does mean auto zone? ..
@@whitefeather468 On my camera it means it will select the subject for you
I have always been a manual focus lover because I started photography with my grandma’s old film cameras. When I moved to digital, it suddenly became a lot harder to do manual focus! I’m excited to try these out and I’m glad I found this video
:)
I think this video is made just for me hahaha love it!!
Canon Servo af means it will still hunt after hitting record. Removing it will allow for easier live tap to focus. If you only have 1 subject moving then servo is great. If not turn it off and tap or pull to focus.
This is actually one of the best video. I have seen on CZcams. People rearely talk about focus points! Am a wedding photographer so I use AF-S and AF-C.
But will have to try the tracking one.mostly because of couples dancing from one end of the hall to the other end. Thanks man this was helpful.
Heya! Thanks a lot for watching - glad you enjoyed :) Try and lmk!
ps: new video is out it's more about Drone photography! Enjoy!! czcams.com/video/IlHgNdS1-OU/video.html
I just came across this video, and I have been searching for MONTHS on some real tips on how to keep my photos sharp because I always struggle with blurred movement. This is the FIRST video where I felt like you explained it so well that I can then use to practice. THANK YOU!
Thanks Brooke!
Same here, this video helped out a lot.
A very important tip - when using fast aperture lenses (f/2.8 and below), don't focus and recompose! Stay in place and move the focus point/box instead, otherwise you'll definitely throw your subject out of focus!
Good point ;-)
Thanks for watching see you in the next episode!
But how can you do this if the subject is moving while shooting f/2.8 or below? You can't manually move the focus point so fast and accurately and at the same time pressing the release. I mean let's say for example some paparazzi fotos where you are rather far away, so you have like 85mm or 105mm (or even more) and the subject is just moving erratically and it's quite shadowy so you need to use quite a big aperture. Wouldn't you rather use the locking mode, where the camera automatically follows the subject? And why not use this all the time with moving objects?
For me this comment was more useful than the video itself lol
I will never focus and recompose at fast aperture
2:54 isnt anyone gonna talk about that man in the background taking pics of him? lol
no, not a single person has ever talked about that
@Bijo S he is doing street photography!
Back bouton focus is in AF-C is for me the best way!
Hey Moymoy!! I've never really tried too much!! What do you love about it? :)
Thanks for watching!!
I push the bouton AF/MF to take the focus (AF-C) and if I release the this bouton the focus stay like the AF-S I can’t wait a subject or recomposes my AF is ready. And for the portrait the eye-AF work well.
Oh cool! I'll try :)
Yes EYE-AF is AMAZING! I didn't mention because not everyone has it yet!!
moymoy117 with you 100%. Best of both worlds 👍
moymoy117pp
Back button focusing has really changed my street photography, so much more shots have ended up totally focused!
If you use AF-C you will find that the focusing will be much faster and without any pulsing. Combine this with back button focus and you are on to a winner. I think it was Gerald Undone that showed the difference.
I really love using "Back Button AF". I can have AF-S and AF-C whenever I want without switching options. Really helpful in animal and sport.
What is back button focus ?
@@RVDS1996 It's technique where you disable default autofocus on half-pressed shutter button and have it set to some custom button in the back of the camera. Your AF mode is also always set to AF-C.
This way you don't ever have to switch between AF-S or AF-C. When you need continues AF, you keep button pressed, when you have to pick up something in focus and recompose, you don't have time to move focus ppint on the screen, you just lift your finger from the button and it turns off autofocusing.
I already knew all this but its refreshing to re hear it or watch. One thing I wanted to say for beginners is that learning manual mode inside and out is very beneficial and a must to learn how your camera works. Once you understand aperture, shutter, and iso its possible to know exactly what settings to use quickly just by looking at the scene with your eyes. It becomes like second nature to quickly change certain settings and be just as fast as say aperture priority.
The best GURU on the internet right now. I doubt I have missed any of your videos. Came across you a week back and since then binge-watching your videos. The flow of your videos and the delivery of content is just 10/10.
I think you convinced me about single spot focusing. Thanks brother
Crush it ;-)
Just always stay in AF-C or AF-Servo (Canon) and use back-button focus. Then you never have to switch focus modes. Hold back-button autofocus when you need continuous or let off the button to do single shot.
havent tried that one yet. good advice
Chris Harmon what is the back button?
Locd N Loaded I wonder the same lol
@@locdnloaded1180you can set it up as a custom button
I tried that on the M50 Mark II, but the back button is just to crappy.
Great video. I am a huge fan of single focal point, and "back button" (AF-C) focus, which gives me all the control needed to deal with thing moving, and things not moving without having to change modes. Multi-point focus for shooting things like birds in flight has given great results over the years. Keep up the fine work.
Hey Brian! Thanks!! Gosh, I never tried the zone focus for the birds! Good tip :)
And back focus I've never crossed the line yet... I have almost all my buttons programmed but maybe if I can save changing AF-S/C that'd be good! :)
My goodnesss you answered a burning question!!!!! I always shoot in very low aperture and I couldn't figure out why only 1 of 4 pictures is focused correctly. I kept recalibrating my lens and couldn't figure it out...so it's because of low aperture! Thanks a million!!
You're welcome!! Thanks for watching ;-)
After using my Nikon for 4 years on auto and not being 100% happy with the focus my photos are now transformed by using shutter speeds of over 1/1000 sec when there is sunlight, or try the SPORT mode for a while on any subject 😄
One small correction. 1:1 focus zoom is not focus peaking.
savage
Yeah well you can combine focus peaking with focus magnification and i think that's what he had on mind. But those 2 together can be tiring sometimes...
I Thought I was the only one that noticed lol. My M50 has focus peaking. It’s when the object in focus is highlighted to assist racking. 🤷♂️ not trying to be a jerk just helpful. Good video however !
VERY INFORMATIVE...My street photography has really been improved with your focusing tips!
Hi. I use AF,C. Backbutton focus on my D5300. It works for me. Great videos. Thanks Pierre.
well, half my gear can do half of the things you mentioned, and half as well. most of what I use lately is my Canon 5D classic, with vintage manual focus lenses. So I have a completely different set of tips for those with this sort of gear.
1) programmable chip adapter can both enable the focus confirmation system and also provide micro-adjustment (especially useful on the 5D classic which doesn't have it built-in.
2) some of Canon's full frame DSLRs have replacement focusing screens available that allow you to see the plane of focus down to f/1.8 rather than f/2.8 at the expense of being darker beyond f/2.8. Some Nikons have similar options.
3) the infinity hard stop for adapted screw mount lenses can be tuned perfectly from me placing the right number of 0.1mm shim washers between the lens and the adapter. this is great for wide-open landscapes, astro, shooting from the hip with wide angle lenses, and in general just being able to trust the distance scale on the lens. for lenses that block the mirror at infinity focus, this can also be used to prevent impact at the expense of having true infinity focus.
Hey Matt! Thanks for all the super useful tips! :)
Nice one, I have an adapted Hanimex M42 zoom that I use on the 6d. I have to rely on my eye to get the focus right.
5:35 For those newbies who may be confused, when he said shooting in manual, he was talking about manual focus only. Manual exposure is a whole different beast.
8:00 Americans generally call them star fish (incorrectly). Yes, they are sea stars. Just ask Patrick (Spongebob Squarepants reference).
9:24 You weren't kidding when you said 'IN' the street!
My 7 tips for sharp photos, tripod, tripod, tripod, tripod, tripod, tripod, tripod!
Your point about using a tripod is a good one, particularly when used in conjunction with Pierre’s comments on using alternate focus points.
Combine those with a bit image stacking on whatever editing software you are using and you can end it with some outstanding images.
I’ve been using a tripod taking self portraits and I get out of focus pics..
@@parinazaz4044 hopefully you can control your camera remotely (via phone using app) if so its a lot easier. Otherwise you will be guessing too much.
parinaz Az - Yeah. I have had the same problem.
It can be solved in a number of ways.
Obviously stopping down your aperture is going to give you a greater Depth of Field and increase the “zone” in front of your lens in which you’ll be in focus. and give you a greater chance of capturing a a sharp self portrait.
However, the downside of doing this is the loss of bokeh in both the fore and background. I consider this to be a big problem. Nothing makes a portrait pop like bokeh.
I have a simple wireless remote that works with my old Canon 600D. It was cheap and it will help you obtain focus if you’re using any of the automatic modes (such as Aperture Priority).
This is not without problems either you have to be directly in front of your camera for the wireless function to work and larger lenses can block the wireless receiver on your camera, and you have this thing in your hand...it’s certainly not a panacea, but you can make it work.
Someone commented on using your mobile phone as a remote if your camera has that capability? Mine doesn’t, so I can’t comment on it’s effectiveness.
Have you tried setting your camera to take a burst of shots?
I can set my 600D up to take a burst of up to 10 shots. You can then move towards or away from your camera as it fires a burst of shots and hope you hit the sweet spot as you move...
There’s a lot of tricks you can use by combining one or more of the above + making use of your cameras focus tracking system.
Trial and error and creative use of the tech at your disposal will give you good results, but it can take some time to find out what works for you as far as focusing goes.
Then you only have to worry about composition, light, your modelling skills and everything else that goes into getting a really good portrait!!!
Hey, if it was easy we’d all have shots on the cover of magazines!!
Hope this has been of some help.
For what it’s worth - remember to have fun and don’t get discouraged if you don’t get the shot you want every time. In time you will - and the mistakes along the way are just part of the process every good photographer must under go. Or so I hear!, ‘cause I’m not yet a good photographer.
I will be someday. 👍🏼
Vanguard Coffee House thanks for the tips.. i think I’m gonna try the phone app and see how it goes.. also I’ve been using the back button auto focus, not sure if that has anything g to do it or not.. anyways, thanks again. 🙂
I just saw the video and went to take again the same picture as yesterday. Today it went awesome! I’d like to share yesterday and todays result because game changer. For me at least. Nice run!

@@nyleen I am one of the peeps. Big F and big exposure times
How do you have so sharp images on IG? Whenever I upload anything from my A6500 it becomes such unsharp garbage that looks almost out of focus. I always resize 4:5 and tried limiting size or quality % export in lightroom...
Hey Dario! I export in 72dpi, 1600px long :)

I shoot Sony also on an A99II, DMF, single focus point with back button focus. For non-moving subjects and some portraits I use manual focus with focus zoom. Sometimes I use color peaking with the DMF because my vision is not good.
j'ai même pas besoin de finir la vidéo pour commenter , je te remercie , j'avais beaucoup de problème de focus du au fait que je ne connaissais pas assez mon appareil tu m'en a appris beaucoup et je t'en remercie

Your voice cracks are really cute and funny the same time...
french accent bro
1. autofocus is the king
2. single point is the queen
3. always move the focus point
4. most of the time shotting in AF S
5. AF C on moving stuff shotting
6. shoot multiple photos when use big aperture
Helpful and reinforces what I was already learning, thankyou. I shoot with Sony RX10iii and RX100iv.
Learning street and landscape. Thanks for making and sharing. Will apply the photos to my own channel 🍻🍻
The sea stars come to listen from you too.
At 0:51 a guy appears. Looks like magic 😀
Very helpful thanks for sharing just got me a canon m50 beginning my photography journey
I am mostly in AF-S. Yesterday my camera was in MF suddenly due to it turning on in my bag. Somehow it was hard to get out of it. And then mostly either Zone-focus, or highlights. Your trick actually. Although it introduces noise in high dynamic situations
One more trick for low-price or old cameras and lenses is using LiveView mode. Yup. It's obviously slow but if you have very cheap lens this mode save lot of pictures keep in focus. This method works only for DSLR cameras because "viewfinder" focus is phase and "LV focus" is contrast
I had YongNuo 35mm f/2.0 lens and it focus right at f/2.8 but miss at f/2.0 - f/2.5. Body was nikon d7000. The only way to get sharp photo was LV mode
Thanks for the tip!!! :)

I just got my camera and this is super helpful now my roller shots are sharp!!!!
Thank you! Been struggling with not having sharp photos for a while. This video is quite informative! Will practice taking more photos soon!
Using Manual ALL the time - till now I have been underestimating P mode - lol
😄
Wouldn't it be easier for you to use Back Button Auto Focus? And ofc still with a single focus point.
Hey Tina!! I just never got the hang of it... maybe I should try again one day!
It takes a few days to get used to, but in my case I never went back. And it's years ago now. So: BBAF and Continuous handles everything here. Only case of manual focus is when using my only macro lens which is a 50 (fifty) year old Nikkor and ofc in full manual. But even in Manual my camera (D300s) tells me when the subject is in focus (little green dot in the viewer) and it works fine for me.
The BBAF also makes it a lot faster to compose a shot because you only need to let go of the BBAF when focus is reached and then compose. And is it a moving object then just keep the button pressed and move camera as needed which is good for sports and wildlife.
So:: BBAF ftw :D
This is some good work, very easy to understand.
Fantastic tips thanks for sharing!!
i love your clarity in explanation very helpful, would you do the same now focused on video

Helpful post mate.
I’m a *real* noob to photography it confirmed that I’m generally doing the right things at the right time and also answered a few questions I had been wondering about.
I have an old Canon 600D. It’s a fine tool for where I’m presently at with my photography.
It has 9 focus points only but I rarely take a shot without using at least 3 or 4 different points.
It’s surprising how much a little reframing and an alternate focus point can effect the quality of your final image - in terms of picking the best of the bunch once you get home and start your post work.
Thanks for watching! Glad it helps :)
Great tips! I do most of this stuff but it's always helpful to have a great photographer validate the process. Thank you.
Thanks for watching :)
4:43 well i dont have one 😓😅
The tips were not really what I was searching for 🙄
Only about using auto-focus instead of manual has to be 1 of 7 tips! 😅

ok video but you REALLY need to discuss back button focus
- that's why a lot of comments refer to it
- not for everyone but best for most everyone
do a whole video on it after you mastered it yourself !
Heya! You are right, I should talk about it! To be honest I never got the hang of it - thus I never shared... but will have to try again!

This was really useful just got my sony a6100 and I learned so much thank you
2:56 whos that guy behind you....hahahahahaha
i am not getting proper sharpness in my 50mm prime lens any suggestions plz
What aperture do u set while shooting ?
Avinash Acharya what focus settings u using
I actually stay in manual for most of my shots but for focus, af-c and single point (large) on my a7riv is my preferred
This was a great video. As a newb, you touched on some points that I really needed to learn. Thank you so much! I'd love to see you do a video on "situational photography" where you have different episodes where you describe the type of photo you're going for (long exposure, Astro, portrait, etc) and then walk through how you setup your camera and best practices.
Hey Brian!! Great idea! I’ll do that soon :-)
See you in the next episode !!
I mostly have vintage glass so… manual focus 99%. Peaking and focus zoom helps a lot.
Yeah, I hav a lot of vintage lenses too, but no peaking. So almost always focus zoom and sometimes confirmation spot.
Good point for vintage!!! :)
I don't know how many videos I've watched on this subject, but you explained it perfectly. Well done.
Thank you!
Thanks, but just a few comments. I really suggest, as other have pointed out here, to use AF-C and back-button focusing. Without it you have to focus and recompose each shot, which means you may miss something. Also the camera is faster without focusing for each shot, when in high speed bursts for e.g. sports. However, sometimes I also use AF-S + MF + magnify, when shooting static subjects and I want very precise focus. Single point AF is also what I use most of the time, for landscape and nature, and group points or all focus points (and maybe tracking) for moving subjects, and eye-face detection for portraits. And finally manual for low light and macro photography. But all this also depend on the camera, of course.
Thanks for sharing! Yes back button is popular for a lot, I never got the hang of it though! I'll try again :)
ps: New video is out, Enjoy!! czcams.com/video/3XJh5K4k6DA/video.html
I don't know brother. Saying autofocus is King is a bit off the mark imo. Only because not all camera systems have AF that's worth a damn. Especially for beginners that likely aren't using top of the line cameras. Also, if shooting street photography I think it might be about 50/50 with auto vs manual focus. Particularly when trying to get detail in lowlight places like markets and churches. Good video otherwise. Controling where youre focusing is definitely a key point.
Very good point man! Thanks for watching :)
Just released the new video czcams.com/video/Uc4CetfP8vM/video.html hope you enjoy!!!

80 percent of the time I use manual focus
Oh cool! What do you shoot mainly?
I shoot landscapes, weddings, portraits and street photography and from those only in street photography I use manual focus! This is because I have many old vintage lens so I can't shoot auto focus!
immortal 23 Do you use any particular technique to manual focus quickly on weddings?
@@taz24787 at first I only hoped that I was doing correct focus and I changed focus at every photo but after some months I realised that I only have to have do focus on on e thing and keep almost every time the same meters away from the subject
@immortal 23 Thanks, do you keep the aperture above any value?
hello sir, i wached most of your video. you are a great photographer..i salute you sir..
Hi Pierre, can you please help me understand which metering mode is good for various scenes
"Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." - Henri Cartier Bresson.
Haha never heard that one before love it! Thanks :)

that's not what focus peaking is. Focus peaking is like highlight warning. Except it overlays a color or pattern where the image is in focus instead of where its blown out.
Yes I totally failed, it didn't show on the camera haha. That's magnifier, the peaking was supposed to show up to... mmm!
Thanks for letting me know!
ps: new video is out!! Enjoy!! czcams.com/video/njmKjuBt_Fg/video.html
I use back button focus rather than half press on shutter release.
I also manual with the camera screen and zoom-in when I need pin sharp focus for a landscape photo.
Thanks for sharing!

When talking about sharp images, why not talk about the sweetspot of a lens?!
I’m following you because I just bought a camera and I want to know what this and that do so I appreciate the hustle man keep grinding
I really love your tips videos,i can understand a lot and you teach us clearly you're such a wonderful teacher!. THANK YOU ! :)
Try to go a little slower please
:-) thanks for the feedback!
Yes, I kinda agree on this. Even though I completely understand what you are trying to share.
take down the speed to 0.75??
I love your speed personally.
Very very helpful. Thank you
Pierre, how long have you been shooting for? I consider my self a novice photographer, I love it and truly enjoy making photos. Your an inspiration to the casual photographers my friend except your a pro!
When in shooting with a very low aperture like f1.4 I use continuous focus because it can always keep focus on the subject
You are such a great teacher - I always learn something new with each of your videos!
Thank you Brenda!! :)
Shooting still subjects is ALWAYS easy ... it's those candid moments I struggle with where quickly picking up the camera and not missing the moment is crucial. And it's that nearly missed moment that you want PIN sharp. With still subjects I can take many photos until I get it right in ANY focus mode because after all most of the time you are in control.
Really enjoyed your video especially the manual info. Thank you xx
Thanks Kaye!
Pierre T. Lambert you're welcome
Thank you for the well done video. I use manual focus all the time in macro photography, actually zooming in to check sharpness. I also prefer back button focus for most of my photography. Some food for thought
AF-S pretty much exclusively. I always want to be in full control of my settings and focus point. I've been trying to shoot in Aperture Priority to see if I am happy with the camera doing the rest when I'm on the streets, but it's a struggle to let go of some of that control! hahaha
I really Appreciate your videos. I’m gonna get out and test the different modes to see which one works best for me.
thank you so much that was really helpful
Lots of info and very helpfull! Thanks
