Exposed // Bracketing vs ETTR
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 июл 2024
- One of the fundamentals that just doesn't get talked about as much as it should is how to expose a scene. Part of the reason for that is that everyone does it different based on their comfort level with post processing. In this video i am going to talk about when and when not to bracket, how to expose to the right, and how to blend images.

This was not only your most informative video, it was one of the most informative videos I have watched on RUclips in an extremely long time. I loved the way you broke this down and explained it.
Wow, it was exactly what I thought through the middle of the video. Nick Page this is my first time seeing you and I'm really glad.
@@likiroki After hearing about ETTR twenty times I still wasn't sure what it meant(not my fault, it was poor explanation). Pretty simple.
This is the best explanation of exposing to the right. An added way I could describe it is that white is every color added together and black is none. So more color information is in the right
This is one of those vids that I save off, so I can watch it several times. All the way up to the parking lot, right before I step out for my shoot, haha. Great info sir. Thank you.
Such an informative video Nick. Love that you included both the techniques of taking the images and processing them. Thank you .
Hey Nick, really enjoyed this video and how accessible you make this process. Thank you for your time/effort. Stay safe and have a great new year!
I am in awe of the amount of technical knowledge you have. Thank you for sharing these tips!
Great video, Nick. Thank you for posting.
Fantastic tutorial Nick. Great info. Amazing images here. Thanks.
Thanks so much for the explanation! I’ve watched all kinds of photo videos and never understood how it all worked. I’m so glad I found your Chanel!
Happy Holidays Nick. Thank you for one more excellent video. Cheers!
Great info Nick, love your channel.
Have a great Christmas and hopefully a better new year.
Just when I feel like I'm starting to learn something about photography, Nick raises the bar again! Great video... the examples you used with your explanations were really helpful. So much more to learn! Thanks!
Thanks. Merry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄 and Happy New Year.
You always explain things so much better then most! Merry Christmas!
Loved how you explained your editing process. Thanks
Thanks Nick, watching your channel is like clearing my cache, I always process better after your tips and instruction.
Excellent presentation Nick.
Thanks Nick, super helpful. Soo great getting this level of detail and the multiple examples really make it clear. Definitely learned a few things here.
Excellent video Nick! First time I've heard about dual-processing an image, but that makes so much sense. I've just arrived here from F4 Road Trip, and this is the first time in ages that I've binged a RUclips channel. Your images are sickeningly good 🙂 Just beautiful. It also means a lot that you like everyone's comments. I'm sure other RUclipsrs read (at least some of) our comments, but it's really good to see it explicitly.
Awesome video Nik! Always very clear and useful presentation! Thanks
Thanks for all the great info, Nick! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Lot of great info. As always. Thanks. Hope you and yours have a happy and healthy Christmas season. 🎄
An excellent instructional video - well explained, detailed enough, and at the right pace for most of us learners to glean all the essentials. I am most grateful to you. Many thanks.
Incredibly helpful. Thank you. Merry Christmas Nick.
It's been a while since I have watched you. This reminds me of why I love your vlogs. Really clear, informative and just great to watch.
One of the best explanations of ETTR I’ve seen! You’re a master of your craft, Nick! Keep inspiring! 👍🏼
Nick, you are the best!! Thanks for ton of info in this video. So happy to find you chanel - and your photoshop courses.
Nick, Thanks for sharing your knowledge/experience....it really helps. All the best for 2021
Thanks, Nick! Such a great, helpful video!! Keep safe and have a lovely Christmas
This was a really great video with clear explanation of the why behind the concept. well done.
Dude can I just say that this video was the most helpful advice I have ever received for photography in a very long time. I went out to do seascape shooting recently and instead of exposing -1 EV like I normally do, I used ETTR and just took a separate shot for the highlights in the sky. The RAWs came out so much better. Thank you for putting together this video.
Thanks Nick! This is by far the clearest explanation and set of directions and procedures I have found about this subject of exposure control. Just wonderfully clear and so very helpful.
Extremely informative Nick and one of those videos that makes you (a) kick yourself for not knowing this sooner and (b) want to get back out there and put your info into practice. Best wishes to you and your family for a peaceful and safe festive period
this is the best discussion and details relating to how to expose and why to expose for the highlights. Very Good :)
Great advice well presented good job Nick!
Although I've been using most of the practices and techniques mentioned here, you likely did the best job of describing and explaining the hows and whys of them that I personally have been prior exposed to. Wonderful job, Nick. And Merry Christmas to you.
Great tutorial as always, thanks again and have a great 2021!
Another great video Nick. I realy enjoy your channel. Wish you all the best for the upcoming future.🙏
An excellent and very practical video. So great when something is explained like this using real life examples. Have a great Christmas.
Great explanation with examples to illustrate when to use exposure bracketing and ETTR. Well done and thank you for your clarity.
I like the way all is explained. Clear and with beautiful examples, thanks
Solid video Nick, thanks for putting in the work. Great shots! I feel like a switch went off in my head recently where my understanding of these techniques went from theoretical to practical.
Such a great video, you truly are one of the best photographers I know!
Nick you never disappoint! Thank you for this; so jam packed with information!
OMG! I finally understand this. And now it seems obvious! Thanks for such a clear explanation without condescension.
One of the best explanations for ETTR I have ever heard. Great information and great video. Thanks man.
Fantastic video Nick. A really well explained process that seems almost obvious when simplified in such a clear way. Have a good one. 👍
Awesome video, so well explained and in terms everyone can understand. Well done Nick.
As always great, informative and easy to follow thanks Nick , have a great Christmas 🎄
I feel like I know most all of this but I still watch cause you are so good and entertaining at it lol. And i know a good amount now largely because of you! Thanks for all you do brotha!!
Fantastic video Nick personally think its one of your best tutorial vlogs.
This was a brilliant video done in such a subtle way. I learned more than I want to admit too. For almost a year I bracketed all the time. Lately I have stopped bracketing for everything but the situations you pointed out. However when I didn't bracket I did not ETTR because I did not understand it in the way you just taught it. This brought together a lot of things I have learned in a succinct way. Using luminosity masks as a selection to paint in the detail from another image really helped me understand how the two concepts differentiate. I think this video is going to help a lot of people become better photographers. Thank you Nick.
Thanks Nick. during this video the light turned on, and I realized what I needed to do to make my photography better...... happy new year....
Wow! Things began to pull together in my head, thank you soooo much!! Love the way you educate 👍
Thank you for sharing that video. The content is realy great and it was pleasure to watch you. Light painting inside of plate - realy cool idea. I have to check your other videos.
Great one! I was very stuck with exposing the same way as did with analog cameras and film. Started discovering of ETTR last summer. But this video really made me understand why. Didn’t know the bit about the iso either. Another analog knot I hade untied here. Thank you
Thanks Nick, from Nick. Hope you have a Merry Christmas.
This was really good and informative. Thanks so much for sharing and Happy Holidays!
This is like 5 videos worth of info in one with a nice flow. Easy to understand
As always so interesting! You’re the best at explaining stuff. Keep it up
So much information here. Thank you. Going to save and revisit ... often. Thanks!
Thanks a lot for this and all you Videos. I like them a lot. Have a good time and I hope the new year will be just wonderful and enjoyable for you.
Great video! Thanks for all the great information, Nick!
Wow definitely the most informative video I have watched in a while. Thanks Nick really enjoying your videos
Very useful overview, thanks, particularly re when to bracket and when not to. Something I’ve been struggling with recently. Bracketing has become my default but produces so many images and I was never sure really how much benefit I was getting.
Best exposure tip I have ever heard about putting the bulk your histogram in the highlight segment. I have been doing this for yours without articulating it the way you did here. Watching the histogram spread out when you adjust your highlights and shadows made the lights come on as to why I do what I do from years of trial and error.
This is, for sure, one of your best free instructional videos to date. Almost touching the premium level I would say. Even if one could figure out a lot of this by sheer trial and error, it is far better to have this information in the back of your head once you are out in the field, than finding out afterwards during post, with lower quality material to work with. Possibly spoiling an image that could be potentially awesome.
Thanks a lot Nick! The content and your personality keeps your channel on a solid first place.
Such a great video Nick!! It's taken me years to learn this stuff. One thing for people to keep in mind is that the histograms and highlight warnings in camera are generated from the jpeg previews and not the raw sensor information so you can likely get away with pushing it a bit more than you might think. On my sony a7r iv, I set the highlight clipping to 106 and that has worked really well for me. YMMV though and you will want to test it to see where you actually start clipping your highlights.
Wow...for the first time I think I get the ETTR concept.
Great video man...thanks for this
Thank you so much for explaining ETTR in terms of depth of data capture. Lightbulb moment for me. It'll change the way I expose images.
6 or 5.5years ago, I watched one of your vids for the first time, and you showed me the wonderful world of astrophotography. (6 months after i bought my SL1) along with Rokinon lenses.
I am just now at this level to where i need and must learn this, and your explination are always understandable, clean, and precise. I have pugilistica dementia. Obtaining new info is difficult a lot of times, BUT all your teachings have begun to enter my long term memory, and my photography has skyrocket overnight.
Many people ask me what camera did i upgrade to, and i love telling them that its my SL1. I always boast your channel. Thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge with the world sir! 😊
Much Love From Iowa 😁
This was so informative! I've tried the ETTR with my small Olympus camera and I get much much cleaner images! Thanks a lot Nick
You have clarified this whole area for me Nick, I often bracket when there is moving objects like trees and then struggle to blend the images. I know better now, thanks.
Great video as always! Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Great video Nick, very informative. Never considered blending 2 edits of the same file before.
Impressive video. I will definitely spend more time thinking about post processing when I am shooting.
Great video with valuable information. Although I've known this stuff for a while now, it's always good to understand how other apply the concept and better yet, how they are explained in such an easy to understand way. Kudos to you Nick, definetely much better than all those 5/10/50 tips to improve photography that seems to flood youtube these days.
Once again Nick dome great advice. I have been to Iceland and it is an amazing and challenging !
Love the DC3 light painting.
My mind is now blinkening, blendably, full. Thanks
Stay safe.Peace
Really top video here, thank you so much. There was so many useful things I have learnt, I will probably have to watch it again just to remember them all :) Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you :)
Great tutorial Nick, thanks for sharing.
Hi Nick: The information contained in this video, is without doubt the best explanation of when to use Exposure Blending vs. ETTR. This has been extremely helpful. Cheers, Keith (Canada)
As always, well presented, well illustrated (er, photographed), and well narrated. Linksmu Kaledu, Nick!
Nick!! others are saying it and I'll say it again.,. this was by far one of the best, most information dense, yet easy to take in videos. I have so much work to do. Thank you thank you thank you
Nick, outstanding video. Thanks for reviewing these topics. Not only a super refresher, your explanation of the histogram and ETTR is the best I've heard. And since we're in the snow season back East, dynamic range goes through the roof. Your tutorial will help immensely!! Gerry
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the video and Happy Holiday's to you and your family.....
Great film Nick. Thanks for sharing all of your films during 2020, there's been some amazing content. Wishing you everything you wish for in 2021. take care buddy, cheers. PS the last image of the Aurora with the lit plane is outstanding.
Expose to the right and Ignore the meter, just use the histogram and highlight alert, even if the image on the screen doesn't look right - that might just be the most life-changing advice I've been given in many years of photography. Can't wait start trying this.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Very awesome info. With an example, you make it easy to learn. Thanks a lot Nick (kk guru) 🙏👍
As I'm progressing in my post processing education, Nick Page and Greg Benz are becoming my go to teachers.
Great explanations Nick. Have a great Christmas
Thanks for explaining this. It’s something I need to learn to take pictures on the Oregon Coast, especially since there is always some wind to factor in. Merry Christmas & a Healthy New Year🎉 Nick, I hope to treat myself to a Workshop in the future!
Thanks Nick for explaining exposing to the right in an easy to understand manor!
Thanks Nick, This was great info! Easy to understand with great explanations!
Great lesson Nick. Thanks!
That was the best explanation of "exposing for the highlights" that I've heard yet. Thank you!
Great topic and information! I'll have to try double processing the same image. That's a really good idea! Thanks!
Thanks so mutch for these awsome vids Nick! Just aswome man!
great video nick. love the way you explain things so even an old git (older than uncle grumpy) can understand. looking forward to your next video. all the best mate.
