You explained things in detail about AF-S, and AF-C that were missed by me in previous instructional videos from other content providers. Very helpful. Thank you.
Joe is really a good teacher. it's a shame Nikon doesn't have a channel that teaches this stuff. What are the perpose of the nikon ambassadors? Do they just get free stuff and tell us to buy Nikon products.
Great video, simple and very informative. If you please don’t mind I need you to explain three points : 1) Focus point wrap around, 2) Focus point and AF -area mode, 3) Focus point selection speed, Please Give us more information, thanks.
Think of wrap around like playing asteroids... you get to one side of the screen and then you come out at the other :-) Area mode uses the full screen to look for focus and point selection speed is not covered in the video, but is what it seems, how fast you can move between points with the sub-selector.
Thanks for the video and it was great. I just got my Nikon Z6 ii and I am not able to see the auto focus point through the view finder where I can move them. Do you know how do I get that fixed?
Hi Joseph, hope you are doing well, I have been trying to do video with my Nikons lol, but there is one thing I don't understand and wanted to see if you could please help. I have mines in AF-F in video mode and my question is, do I have to leave the AF-ON button pressed at all times or does it focus and track the eyes/head of the subject by itself without me having to leave the AF-ON button pressed at all times. I'm loset, lol...I press that button to focus as UI do when I take photos but I lose focus so I have tried leaving the AF-ON button pressed but I still lose the subject, I'm not super sure what I am doing wrong lol.... If you could please help, I would really appreciate it, thank you.
Is there a way to lock the focus point in one place? Every time I touch the screen it moves, and I just want it in the dead center. If there's a way to do that, I haven't found it. Also, supposedly there's a way to have the focus track faces and/or eyes in a Z6ii Haven't found that, either.
Hey hi, In auto mode , not able to change set picture control, WB, & metering, it showing as , it showing as this option is not available at current settings or in the current mode.
Love your videos and always learn something. However, maybe I'm misunderstanding but at the nine minute mark you talk about setting A1 and in release mode you say the camera only focuses once. I don't believe that's true. If the subject is coming at you and you are in AF-C Release mode the camera will continue to focus.
Ed- the camera will continue to focus while you are holding the shutter release button half down. Once you full press the shutter button the camera will focus once and then release (take photos). It will continue to release (not focus) until you let go of the shutter button.
Hi sir I have Nikon Z6 and I'm using 50mm 1.8G with FTZ. While shooting with 1.8 aperture there is slightly blur but with 2.8 aperture fine and getting sharp images. what is problem in it? Will you please help me for it? TIA
Yes - these settings are demonstrated in Nikon Z 9 series camera. But the concepts are the same even if the numbers are slightly different in the menus.
Thanks a lot for the info! I would appreciate if you would stop having intros. The video could start from the 2min mark and skip the intro, because you don't need to explain what you're going to explain -- the title tells enough. Other than that, this is great!
Z6II and I NEVER shoot people or animals EVER just objects, why does this dumb ass camera software only have people or animals in auto focus mode options? Or am I the dumb ass isn't using the settings correctly?
But Z5 seems like a downgrade from Z6ii though? I myself just got the Zf yesterday, trying to set everything up correctly and learning the most i can about all these settings.
