In this video you'll learn how to control DOF -- Depth of Field in order to get blurry background for portraits or greater sharpness when you're doing group shots. It's important to understand how you can use aperture, zoom or creating distance between yourself and the subject can control the depth of field.
Equipment used in sample pictures.
DSLR Nikon D7000 Canon t4i Canon 650D Nikon D3s
Lenses Nikon D50mm f1.8G Nikon 85mm f1.8 Nikon 70-200 VRii f2.8 Nikon 24-70 f2.8 Tamron 24-70 VC 2.8 Tamron 28-75 f2.8 Tokina 16-28 f2.8

@Angelchildxx 12 лет назад

hey thanks for this video! it was helpful ;)

@achukv 11 лет назад

I think the same thing was explained by POUT on another video named "Photography Tutorial - FIRST Lesson! What is Aperture? " . Use single AF because you are focusing on a single subject. If you use full Auto AF the camera may try to focus something else.

@jtpfam1 11 лет назад

good vid thx.

@ScreenArtUK 11 лет назад

a little negative for people who just bought a 650d, but im glad you mention its good for landscape and lowlight stuff at the end thats mainly why i got it.. but thanks for review , as my first DSLR i really dont find it a problem to press the zoom button to get focus points :-)

@DeliciaatHome 11 лет назад

Hi, I am a true beginner. Thanks for making everything so easy to understand with DOF, aperture, lighting, etc. For 2 days straight I've been online searching for a way to achieve sharp subjects w/blurred backgrounds and I've been told that I cannot do this with my camera because it is a bridge w/ a small sensor (Fuji Finepix S4500). I did see where one guy said it doesn't matter what the camera is but basically knowing all that you teach here. Do you also agree? still trying to achieve this.

@AF0093 12 лет назад

LOve your videos very concise information. Can you make a video on what backdrop and flash do you recommend for beginners like me. I want a good solid background that can last me a long time and a versatile flash for my Nikon D90. Thank you so much!

@timdawg747 11 лет назад

I don't have to read a book.. I went to school and Photography was my major. Not to mention , I've been doing it for a living for many years. You can have 3 photographers shooting the same subject. and get the same shot using different F/Stops. Distance from You and the subject is a factor when it comes how much depth of field...

@uronthespot4628 11 лет назад

thank you ~

@samisab786 11 лет назад

I have both the T1i and T3 that me and my family purchased ages ago and we're still learning all the features. I've only really used the kit lens and I have noticed the pictures aren't that sharp as I was hoping. Granted, I don't know how to use the camera well, but what other lenses would you recommend? I only really take landscape/travel photography.

@Thebeautygoddess244 11 лет назад

Can you please make a video explaining different lenses and what you would use them for??

@BradenKoh 11 лет назад

thanks ^^

@metalking40 11 лет назад

Hey dude, great videos, can you please give me some tips for the Canon PowerShot SX 150IS, its a basic model, but I would like to know something more about it, do help, thanks.

@Mrlolibre 11 лет назад

Great video, really nice use of examples. Quick question, where and how should I focus with different scenarios (single, 2-3 people, 6+, etc.) If I'm not mistaken, I should use the single centred focus point?

@TheZahidRahim 12 лет назад

Thanks :)

@ilokanodaytoy1 11 лет назад

hey jib how you doin?i got d7000 with 50mm 1.8g i love it very much!do you think i need the 85mm 1.8g for portraits,weddings?thanks jib!

@ilokanodaytoy1 11 лет назад

okay that was quick so i'll just stay on my 50mm,i have the kit lens(18-105) with it but im not really happy so im planning to get a better telephoto lens what do you suggest?Budget $500,im thinking the tamron 70-300 vc usd?,thanks jib

@HGChannel2020 12 лет назад

do more strobist videos, im just starting out flash photography :D u do a vrrryyy good job. do u teach photography as a part time or full time job?

@25GARCE 11 лет назад

please what lenses do you use to get this pictures.

@MelvinDlaCruz 12 лет назад

heyyyyyyy you dont answer me? wich is better for you 430EX II or Nissin Di866

@KeebRocks 12 лет назад

Really great video as per usual. Is there a real difference between zooming and just getting closer to the subject? For example say hypothetically you have a 20mm f2.8 prime lens and a 30mm f2.8 primes lens. If I were to frame my shot in exactly the same way would the depth of field be the same for both shots? Can anyone enlighten me? :p

@benjamindkluong 11 лет назад

I have a canon t4i body. I'm looking for a lens for it. Can you please suggest me some lenses? I'm thinking about EF-S18-135mm IS STM and EF 50 F1.4

@RishabKapadia 11 лет назад

Awesome! As i understand this ... Aperture is related to incoming light as well as Depth of Field Low aperture = more light & less depth of field High aperture = Less light & high depth of field can u pls confirm ?

@bakkarimedamine 7 лет назад

Hello people ! i have a question for you , when i was having a photoshoot with a Nikon d600 i pressed the depth of field button by mistake ! since than all the pictures that i take darker than before anyone here know what should i do Thanks

@CaribbeanPhotoGuy 11 лет назад

What type of photography do you shoot?

@BradenKoh 12 лет назад

Well,I'm a beginner and i got a question.I understand to make the F/stop lower when I wanna get a sharp subject with blur background,but the focus mode should be in MANUAL FOCUS or SINGLE-SERVO AF? Hope you can reply me in short moment ^,^ THX

@madisonmoore8508 11 лет назад

What lens did you use for this?? I have a 18-55mm lens.

@TheShavarin 11 лет назад

just one question: Is there an aperture with F Stop value 1.8? :)

@proprinters 11 лет назад

I am having a hard time with the Av setting on my camera. I am getting all white screens. I try changing all the settings, but every time the screen comes out all white very frustrating

@sautwayne 11 лет назад

I guess the main question I have is, during a group shot where is my focal point. Do I lock in on a face and then re-position or do I move the focal point around? Now that a have a camera with 39 focal points I feel I am over thinking everything.

@ashishman1 11 лет назад

why does the aperture decrease when zoom increases?

@Dinahhs3 12 лет назад

If u can make a picture critique type of tutorials, we can benefit from other people mistakes

@Nilamprakash03 8 лет назад

if i step back and zoom how will it affects dof

@timdawg747 11 лет назад

Your whats known as book smart... I'm hands on and school taught... and common sense has to apply. I'm 52 and have practice photography since the mid 70s... where you have to develop your film and process prints and mount them... I've done it so long, the settings are in my head.. I know them . I don't need a light meter.. I invite you to my FaceBook. so you can compare your photography to mine. My clients say my photography is like viewing the world through my lens.... Facebook Tim Prez

@HGChannel2020 12 лет назад

remember me dude?

@timdawg747 11 лет назад

To prove my point that depth of fields has nothing to do with F/Stop.. A telescope or binoculars have no F/stop "no aperture". But they all have focus and depth of field. If you focus on a subject closer to you. Everything at a distance behind the subject will be out of focus "Depth of field" It can be reversed .. If the subject is in a field of grass and a distance from you. As you focus on your subject the foreground is your depth of field and out of focus...

@timdawg747 11 лет назад

Focal point and Distance control depth of field. F/Stop has nothing to do with Depth of field... F/Stop is a measurement of how much light is allowed in ... Functions like the pupil in your eye...The combination of Iso, Shutter speed and F/stop ,all contribute to a prefect exposure.. It's Math

Infact I made a mistake, I thought Pakistan, India and Bangladesh are in South-East Asia.

@Sarmad950 12 лет назад

Are you south-asian?

@jelly9009 12 лет назад

OMG this makes me so mad ! There are some weird people out there. Obviously has no life or skills (unlike you) and jealous of your talent and followers. Yes us dedicated fans of yours should all be hitting 'like,like like " !! Don't be discouraged, that is what the stupid idiot wants !! U r a great photographer and teacher. Ignore this piece of Sh&*..t and carry on doing what you do. :)
