@@ChooChooRosenbloom It depends on the capability of the LENS, not the camera. If you want to to a lower aperture (like something smaller than a F/5.0, you will need to buy a different lens that allows that setting. My experience is the lenses with the ability to have smaller apertures are more expensive.
I am 64 years old and recently got bitten by the photography bug after a friend gifted me his old Canon T5. This video is so informative. I knew nothing about any of this. Now I will start tinkering. Thank you.
Just starting a BFA degree - Day 1 of classes for me, and my first photography class tells me to go learn about these things (changing ISO, Aperture, Shutter Speed). I have a Canon EOS Rebel T7, and this video worked perfectly for me. Thank you for creating it!
I love your way of explaining and communicating. You are the first channel that explained it to me in a way i could understand but still giving me enough room to explore myself. Keep up the good work!
Very useful little video. No complicated jargon and everything explained in simple, easy to understand language. I treated myself to a Canon EOS 2000D for my 60th birthday and haven't had many opportunities to go out and play around with it. Thanks to this video, I now know how to make the necessary adjustments, and why. Thanks for putting up this video, and I am more than happy to subcribe.
I must say that this is the clearest and articulate example of how to adjust the shutter, aperture and, ISO that I've seen. I was baffled by each until I saw this example. Thank you for breaking it down and communicating and clarifying in simplistic language how to do this.
Best video on RU-vid. From your video I got to know that it was so easy, otherwise see the other RU-vid videos. 20 mins of muttering on this topic and in the end you would even forget why you came and what you were actually looking for. This video will be my reference video forever. Thank you mate!
Dear Paul. I know absolutely NOTHING about cameras. I bought a Canon EOS 30D on ebay and when it arrived, it might as well have been a part off an alien spaceship! I had NO idea how to use it and the terminology was like an alien's language. However, since finding your videos, I can not be more grateful as I am now beginning to understand how it works. Mainly because you present it so well and so clear for everyone to understand! I am truly grateful and now a fan too of course! Many thanks! Garry 😁
I cannot thank you enough for this free invaluable information. I am a senior trying to figure out this Rebel T6 and I bought a 90mm macro lens too. Just knowing the basics is a huge help in trying to take pictures of jewelry for Ebay sales. Thanks so much for your time. Greatly appreciated and easy to understand.
This is the most helpful video. I almost gave up on my new Canon and just treated it like an ordinary camera. Thanks for the clear and useful explanation on Shutter Speed, Apeture, and ISO. I'm gonna watch your other videos and learn more.
You, sir, are a legend. So simple but comprehensive explanation! Most other tutors on YT expect people to already know about the subject matter and use a lot of jargons and technical terms. Thank you for thinking from a learner's viewpoint.
I took film photography classes in highschool way back in the early 2000s just when film was becoming obsolete. I'm using a manual digital camera (EOS Rebel T6) for the first time this week on a trip to the UK. I was confounded by the controls, and the manual that came with the camera wasn't helping me. Thank you so much for this crash course. Very concise and easy to understand. You've helped me a great deal.
I'd given up on learning how to use a camera and photography until I found your videos. I've watched so many others trying to explain these points but your clear communicating makes it easy to understand. Thank you so much!
I have been wandering around like a blind man until I found your video. I have subscibed and look foreward to watching and learning more from your videos. Thank you very much.
You are the BEST. I purchased a CANON T7 yesterday and off the bat wanted to use manually. You "killed" the tutoring for me. YOu made it easy as 1+ 1. I have subscribed to your channel.
I had to come back to this video as I forgot how to adjust the aperture setting in M mode. Your full tutorial is the only one I needed too. Just got an old used Canon D400, has the STM 50mm lens. Great for a newb like me.
Fantastic - once you have your head around Aperture, shutter and ISO you will discover a whole new world of creative way of shooting ahead. Thanks for watching my videos. Paul @ Photo Genius
I'm new to photography, I just bought the Canon T7 Rebel. I know nothing about photography. I very much like the way that this video explains things simply in a manner that even I can understand! Thank you!!! I live on a farm so most of my photography is landscape, ponds, cotton fields, livestock etc. But on occasion I like take photos of the sky at night., I haven't mastered that yet. :-( but working on it. THANK YOU FOR THESE GREAT VIDEOS!!!
After taking about 500 photos of the same image with incomprehnsibly bad results, this short video helped me change that! Thank you for your clear explanation!!
I have seen many videos in the past few days but those never worked for me. you just explained everything I needed in the simplest way. the best explanation.
This is a perfect tutorial! I'm going to Iceland in one month and although I have nice camera equipment, I'm not sure how to use it best. Live Jacob said, you are the consummate communicator! Great video. I subscribed and will watch more!
C V You are welcome, I get greT satisfaction from helping others learn how to take better photos. Please consider subscribing, lots more videos coming soon.
Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. I have been struggling for 1 hour to change the aperture while in video mode and I almost gave up thinking the option was unavailable. Thanks to you I know I need to press and hold AV and use the wheel. Thank you
Thank you. Canon seems to think instruction manuals w/ glossaries are passe. The pdf is frustrating to navigate. You saved me grief. I'm always seeking ways seking ways to omit grief🤠
OMG you are great at explaining how to use the camera by a beginner. The best way is to Actually Show us, while explaining what each part is. I watched a couple of videos, the definitions were good, but the demonstrations were poor or not shown at all. Thank you Thank you!!!
So I noticed on the auto mode on my EOS Rebel T6i, it can take a photo with an ISO at 4000. But how can that be, I cant find a way anywhere in any of the settings to get the ISO at 4000. The only ISO settings available are in preset increments. Any idea how I would go about setting my ISO to 4000?
An interesting question and one I'm afraid I cannot answer for you. I don't have a T6i but you could try going to the menu > Custom functions > Exposure level increments.
I have a canon 4000d camera but I had very little information about how to go about it. You are the first to make me fully understand camera setups. You are the best...one in a million. Thank doing much.
I'm a beginner in photography, basically just looking for a hobby. This is the easiest explanation and how-to video about the exposure triangle and I've paid several Udemy classes already. Much thanks!
Thanks for the help in this video. We just bought a Canon EOS 3000D. Our first DSLR. Went to the Canon web site that wouldn't open. Found you channel and found some answers to what we wanted. Thanks again for us in New Zealand 🇳🇿
Thank you so much for explaining this in "plain English" I learned SO MUCH just from watching this video. I have had this camera since 2015 and just now I learn the basics from you. I am so grateful! I will watch the rest of your videos.
Thank you.. I needed to take a picture of a glow in the dark flower, the Firefly petunia. Your tutorial here helped me find the settings to take a photo in the dark of the plant's glow.
Just bought my first Canon ive always used Olympus. Thanks so much for your help . You are so clear and make things easy ,so nice to see a helpful professional who doesnt look down thete nosr at us budding amateurs .
Oh thank you thank you thank you. I am a NEWBIE with a canon t6i and this is so helpful. My partner in crime is skilled with a camera, but I am just learning and this was so helpful!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed the video and found it informative - keep practising and having fun with your t6i and please consider subscribing, lots more tutorials and tips coming.... Paul @ Photo Genius 😀
OMGoodness Paul, you are GOD sent! Bless your heart! Thank you so much for the great and simple to understand video! I have been going crazy because I just bought my camera and have two assignments due today. I finally decided to google how to change the aperture and your video popped up - thank GOD. Thank you again!
Fantastic video. I just switched from an old Nikon D300 to the Canon 800D and I was going crazy trying to figure out how to change the aperture in Manual mode without using the touchscreen. Thanks!!!
It like having you in my kit bag, if I’m out doing whatever, I can bring up your videos and find out and understand easily in five minutes what I need to know, it’s great!
I am desperate to learn more about photography and get off auto! This is the first video I have watched that actually makes sense to me and is explained in a way that is simple to understand and follow. Thankyou
Hi Carla, glad to hear you are making the jump from Auto and happy that my video is helping you to get more from your camera. Thanks for watching and supporting my channel - please consider subscribing.
I love the way you explain how to adjust the shutter speed, aperture and ISO. This video really helps me. I really want to learn more about photography, but I don't have my own DSLR Camera, I just borrowed the camera of my friend just to take a picture and captured some event. I hope you help me to make my dreams in photography come true and to have my own DSLR Camera.
This video helped me out alot. Like alot of other people, I got so overwhelmed with all these buttons and crap. You made it easy to understand and get use to. Thanks for helping a newbie out.
His videos are the best. He does a great job explaining the camera, providing tips, and talking slow enough to understand and follow along on your own camera. Great Job!
I’ve been watching photography videos for years and they just go into far too much detail at one time and use too much jargon which means I have to pause the video then google what something means. You’re videos are perfect 👍🏻 everything is explained so simply and you don’t go off on a different subject. Can’t praise you enough
This video is so helpful thank you! Just bought a T6 to learn to take better pictures. I had no idea not only what most of these buttons are, but how it effects my photos.
Noone could have explained this better. I have watched tons of videos and got confused haha, but your explanations are so simple and can everyone make understand the "difficult" unknown.
I’m having trouble getting to the screen that you were at when adjusting your speeds. I am on M, and I scroll the knob, but I only have to numbers at the bottom of my screen. I don’t have a full screen that ends up popping up.
Dude thank you sow much. I was stuck on the shutter taking to long to close dint know what to do you are very detail in your explanations thank you sow much.
Thank you so much! I’ve searched a long time to find this basic information: not only for instruction on the purposes of each feature, but also the basic steps of how to find/use the camera settings that accompany these features. Thank you so much for getting straight to the point, in such an efficient, user-friendly, and time-saving manner!
