When you really want the best explanation of how your camera works - this man is the option. Thanks Paul!
Ive been too embraced to admit that I could not figure out how to focus my mirror less digital camera....even on auotofocus.
These video tutorials are going to be revolutionary for me.
I just bought myself an EOS 500D DSLR
Cant wait to get started
Hi Paul. I only recently got into photography (at 46 years old!!) and after much reading I decided on the Canon 2000d after you reviewed and recommended it... just wanted to say a big thank you for all your you tube videos!! So clear and by far the easiest videos for learning the basics of photography. Thanks and please keep up the videos
Great to hear, thank you for watching and taking a moment to comment - so glad you're loving your new camera. Thanks for watching, so many more videos to come 😀
Dude thank you so much !!! I just got this thing & all my photos was comin out blurry hahaha. Almost thought I was scammed ! You are a massive help.
Best video about photography!!!!
Thanks you for watching and supporting the Photo Genius channel - please like and comment as it really helps 👍 😀

By far best tutorial Channel available
I have had the issue with nearly the same settings that the halfway down option takes the photo and doesnt focus. Depending on the scene I am taking, light and all. Why does it do that??? Please answer
Thank you Charles.
If a half press of the photo does not activate Auto Focus then it sounds like you have the AF turned of. Is their a switch on the side of the lens ? If so make sure it is not set to MF (which is manual focus), once switched to AF your problem should be solved. if you have a lens that does not have the switch then you will need to check focus mode settings on the camera.
Hope that helps.
Thank you, you are by far, the best on teaching basics on CANON TIPS.....I have a T6, and only after your help, I've able to just start using some of the great features of my camera........You got a fan in Brazil.....
I haven't watched your videos in a while, but watching this made me realize why I started following you in the first place. I had no clue you could adjust the focus by turning the front part of the lense. Thank you for your amazing videos!
Welcome back Alicia - thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave your feedback. There is always something to learn so I'm glad you enjoyed the video and picked up another cool tip.
Best wishes
Paul 😀
I have turn to using back button focus. Fabulous video
A video all about back button focusing will be coming in the near future.
Thanks fro for watching Vincent.
I learned a lot from you every time you uploaded a new video. Thank you.
Glad to hear that, thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback 👍.
Your content is Amazing thank you we find Happiness here GodBless you
Thank you very much.
I love videos that demystify relatively straitforward concepts. This opens the door for creative people to explore new mediums. What a great gift! People like you are the backbone of RUclips!
Cheers from the UK 👍
Welcome and thank you for watching and supporting.
I am new an have a DSLR Canon EOS and watched a lot of your videos and feel Manual is far better than Auto also waiting for my new Zoom 55-300 lense thank you I will keep watching
Fantastic channel and fantastic teacher. As a 58!! year old newbie, your videos and clear explanations are gold. Another subscriber from UK
Just what I needed..basics
Hi just wanted to thank you for explaining thing so Precise I am very easy to understand the way you take your time especially when I’m learning.
Hi, i have just purchased a digital camera and you tutorial is very helpful
Love these refresher videos. Always learn something new or something I forgot when shooting.
Thank you.
Thank you Paul, for clarifying the focus points. I was having a tad difficulty grasping the use of them on my Canon 2000 D DSLR.
I have been watching your channel for 10 months, or so, and I learn something new every week... Thank you, John- Pennsylvania. USA
Great to hear John, thank you so much for the feedback and for supporting my channel over the last 10 months - hopefully lots more to come!!
Paul 🙂
Long time no see, your videos taught me a lot 👏🏽
Welcome back and thanks for watching.
Hi Paul, I'm from India.Can I get complete photography course online?
Thank you Paul! I've always stayed away from manual focus for fear of not getting it right, but with your instruction I can now do it! Love your channel!
Great to hear, thanks for watching and supporting my channel.
Thank you for this tutorial is so very knowledgeable to me. I got my cannon 2000d yesterday I'm beginner to take a photo but this vedio is very helpful to me.thank you😊. GOD BLESS YOU
Excellent channel about photography
Many thanks!
This was an amazing video for me as a beginer.
Ohhh, that's an amazing tip, I've never considered using the digital zoom to get your photo perfectly in focus, gonna try that as soon as my first DSLR arrives!
Another good tutorial Paul.
Thank you so much for your video! I realized how powerful my canon EOS 4000D really is because of you.
I was having trouble getting my camera to focus on specific subjects. You unveiled a lot of hidden gems I didn’t know about as far as specs on the camera that allow us to zoom in closer to focus on our subject. Had a shoot today with a 50mm lens and the pics were beyond amazing.
You’re the goat💪🏽
Best wishes for 2023 Paul and thank you for all the great tips you have shared with us.
Great tutorial.. Big thanks to u boss.. thanks for not including back button focus its not so Imp..
You're welcome
Great video and lots of great tips that I can practice with!
Excellent tips!

Great video, Paul! Im learning more with every one you post, thanks!
Awesome, thank you David 👏
Love your videos! I have learned a lot of great tips & tricks. Thank you 😊
Such a complicated subject explained in a such simple way... I wish I could LIKE it more than once. Thank you very much.
Great tutorial, Paul.
Been watching your videos,thank you! I bought the t7/2000D and I’ve never really had a camera. I love all your videos and tutorials mostly because it seems that’s the camera you demonstrate. I have to admit it’s big learning curve and sometimes I have to watch the tutorials over again. It’s been a huge help. Went out to try twice and the second time I was much better
Yet another thing I’ve learned. Thank you. Did not know the difference between the zoom and lens on the front. I’m just learning, I’m slow but I just practice and repeat. Your videos are so far the best to follow and understand. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful, appreciated the feedback.
you explain everything and make it so easy and understandable. thank you, have a nice day.
You are welcome! Have a great day too George, appreciate the kind feedback.
Great stuff Paul - thanks.
I've been learning so much about the camera I recently bought. I was lost trying to use the manual. Both photos are informative and easy to follow.
Very enjoyable carry on from your last video,thankyou

Thanks for this! Just got a manual focus 55mm 2,8 lens for my Nikon D750 and this is helping me a lot! I see your photos of the Windy City,,,I;'m a southside Chicagoan as well! :)
Excellent tutorial
I love my mirrorless Canon it makes photography fun and it has so many cool features. thanks for the lessons and I can't wait until they are more geared to the new mirorless world.
Always informative
I have recently purchased the canon eos t7 . And surfed the internet for tutorials. Yours came up and I immediately subscribed. Your videos are very good, you present the information clearly and not overly wordy. I look forward to seeing future videos . And improvement in my photos . Keep up the good work.

I used to be keen on photography with SLR cameras, but study and life got in the way. Now many years later my family have given me a Nikon DSLR . Your videos are brilliant, helping me to relearn all I had forgotten and guide me in the use of a digital SLR. Your explanations are very clear. Thank you so much!
You remined me of, that top right button. That I lost track of lately. Thanks.

Happy to hear that! Thanks for watching.
Another great tutorial ! Thank you 👍
You are very welcome, thanks for watching.
Great subject. My mom turned 60 in november and I wanted to make some nice pictures with my D3500 and the 35mm F1.8 (bought the lens used one and a half years ago). Everything went well until I noticed that the autofocus stopped working and I had to focus manually. I can still use the lens for astro but for portraits I ordered a brand new lens 😊
Hope then new lens performs better for you, thank you for watching.
@@photogenius Yes it is as solid as expected. If I can take just one lens for travel it would be the 35mm F1.8.
Focus is one of my difficulties. Most of the time I try do do it through the visor but it is not always possible. My second approach is through the display and this is where I miss a sharp focus. I learned something here by using that button.
great clear video.
Thank you Paul! Now I will be able to use MF with ease.
Glad to help!
excellent content, thank you.
I love your tips! I always learn something new! Thank you!
You are so welcome Rachel, thank you for your support.
Love your videos. I learned a couple of things yesterday by watching them and applied them to my camera. I was at a hmm moment. Thank you for doing these helpful videos.
