Tony & Chelsea Northrup Ok I'm using a 50mm lens and I can really get the setting on my Camera on Manual! I'm going outside and I'll send to you and I'll see what you think.
Beginner camera user here and man I've been looking around trying to figure out some this stuff and settings. This one video here took a seemingly complicated issue and totally made it easily understandable in explanation as well using proper picture and graphic representation of what exactly is explained and what the camera is actually doing. A Big Fat Thumbs Up to this video!
Getting back to basics, i like that. If it was not for videos like these many beginners would be lost. Makes me happy to see these types of videos slipped in every now and then. Keep up the great work guys.
I just got my first DSLR camera today. Read for about three hours out my dummies book and learned about 1/10 of what I have from you two in about half of an hour. I'm buying your book off pure gratitude, you guys are awesome!
I'm a beginner and after watching over a hundred videos I can say this is without a doubt the most helpful one I've come across. I'm buying their book. Bravo!
YES! Thank you for the simple, thorough info w/ visuals!!! I really appreciate the fact that you have us pause to practice so that we're familiar with what you're doing and explaining. It's like our own personal classroom. You both rock.
Hello, guys! Just wanted to stop by and say thank you for this tutorial. I watched so many tutorials for photography from other users, but most of them were difficult to understand. This video was very very helpful, I feel like I understand my camera better now lol. Looking forward to watch more videos from you. Keep up the good work!
I literally learned how to shoot in manual mode by watching THIS VIDEO!!!! I’ve read all kinds of instruction articles that did indeed make sense to me, but they failed to explain it in a way that I could visualize. Immediately after watching this video I switched my Nikon D4 into Manual mode, shut off the auto-iso and started shooting great pics that had more of what I saw with the naked eye. Then I started making them darker, lighter, sharper, with better bokeh and so on. So impressed I immediately bought your book “Stunning Digital Photography” and now I’m having so much fun! Thank you both so much for what you do, I am without a doubt a new loyal subscriber. Best! John.
It’s amazing how far these videos have come, this one is great and it was how I started but you’re more recent videos are so much more natural, and your personalities really shine
This is by far, the most detailed and easiest to understand explanation on this platform. This video should be the "go-to" video when trying to understand the camera! Good job!
I got my first dslr about 4 months ago for Christmas. You two put out wonderful videos! Every time I want to learn something new, or have a question about photography I come to your channel.
What a wonderfully calm and professional way of tutoring. I´ve know the ground rules for decades, but this reminder didn´t get boring. I´ll check out the rest and keep you in mind if anyone asks me about where to start understanding their camera. Good work.
You guys are great. Glad you guys put your energy into teaching people online about what you both know. I don't think there's anybody else out there who is this committed to helping people with this particular profession (or hobby) to the people to see something apart from just a shutter click on a camera with an empty message clipped onto it.
Just in curiosity I bought my first DSLR camera Canon 1200D with no knowledge about it. After watching all your tutorials, I started to love my camera and photography and learnt so many things from your videos. Very detailed information and easy to understand live demonstration. Thank you guys. Awesome work...
The Nikon d7200 guide you have on youtube is the best i could get anywhere and thanks for encouraging enthusiasts like me to take more pictures in manual mode now.
I’ve probably watched a dozen or more hours of videos and yours is the one and only so far that has truly explained this all in a way I can understand. I’m now really excited to get out and take some photos. Def be watching more of your stuff.
Just bought the nikon d3300 and the only camera I've ever used was on my phone. I was in over my head with this camera. After watching these videos and also your video on the d3300 I feel so much more confident. I've taken about 500 photos in the last 2 days using manual mode and understanding exposure compensation, aperture, and shutter speed. ISO is in auto for now. You both make it so easy to learn that I had to buy your book and can't wait to dive into it. Thanks for the great videos!
I picked up my first camera in 2002...disposable. And later when my wife bought me my first digital (Kodak), I discovered how much I enjoyed and had a flare for pictures. But during all that time, it was always "Point and Shoot". 14 years later, I am a serious student of learning manual settings. Thank you, Tony and Chelsea, for not only being instructive...but NOT condescending. I know that others feel the same as I do...(added note).....I was always frustrated as to how to keep my pictures at substantial sizes, not always being able to produce photos AT good sizes. I know this might be common knowledge to the learned photographer, but manual settings also......give you good substantial sizes for posters, framing, etc.
I finally decided to concentrate on shooting in manual mode and have purchased a few books, but I must say that your video trumps much of my readings due to the way you explain it in visual style. Respectfully, I had to watch it a few times because the lady is so beautiful that it caused distraction for me. I state this respectfully! Thanks for taking the time to help others understand their cameras better!
Thank you so much for explaining this in detail. It now makes sense to me. Just got my first DSLR and had no idea what to do, great video and very informative.
just bought my first camera (canon eos rebel t5i ) and a beginner. I subscribed after watching my first video of you guys. Thanks for sharing all this knowledge with us.
Thank you for the great videos, I purchased your ebook 'Stunning Digital Photography' because you are my favorite photography instructors on RUclips. I am a serious- hardcore-extreme-amateur-beginner-hobby photographer, and I have learned more in the past week from your channel, than I have in the previous five years watching/reading others.... THANK YOU!!!!
This is probably the most simplest and the most useful guide I have ever watched. I was having troubles with my pictures because they came out too dark and somewhat brownish, now I understand where I was messing up! Thank you for this, insta like insta subbed. Keep up the good work!
you guys rock! I've dj'd clubs, parties, and social events for over 20yrs! Just purchased my 1st professional camera to capture memorable moments.... Canon Rebel t6 w/ wifi.... & this tutorial was the best! Thx
This was a fantastic and easy to understand intro to manual mode.... Think I will keep my camera on manual mode for at least the next two weeks just to get a solid feel... Thanks for re-motivating me and hopefully helping me get more out of my photos!
I just got my camera and i watched so many videos on the settings and they all made it so complicated and used words that i had no idea what they meant and this video was so crystal clear and helped me soooo much! Thank you tons
Great lessons here. Thank you so much. Teaching with examples is the best way of making people understand what you're talking about. Much loveeeeeee!!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
As a beginner i like you guys the most and explained the basics very thoughtful. I recently bought canon 70d and bought the 50mm 1.8. I don't usually use M mode cause i tend to get wrong settings.. i use av mode and probably going to kickstart using manual
Hi, My name is Lloyd. Thank you so much for your great videos. And thank you again for takin the time to help us out in our photography life. You two guys are great. I love all your video lessons ( Trainings) Love you both Lloyd
this is actually the first video i found that actually explains properly everything... thank you so much, can't wait to go out and practice with my camera . Gained a subscribers btw 👍🏻
This video was soooo helpful when I got my new Nikon. I really, really appreciated the clarity of the video because it was so easy to follow and do on my own.
Good video. I used a Cannon Powershot for a couple of years in the Auto mode. Your simple and straight forward examples provide a perfect "on ramp" to experimenting with the manual mode. Well done.
Tony, if you are now switching from Auto on your Powershot please don't forget to adjust your resolution from Large to Superfine Large which will give you an infinitely finer photo. Auto only photographs in Large.
Love your book ... I think it's the best one there is for those of us who are into photography for fun, documenting vacations, family events, or simply as a hobby. As for those wanting to become serious photographers ... it's a "must have" study guide.
Awesome tutorial for a photography newb like myself. I figured I’d watch it even though I don’t always go manual. I’m glad I did because I think this is by far the Best explanation of ISO + Aperture + Shutter Speed vs Light I have seen! Thank you so much to both of you.
Thanks guys embarrassing to say but i own some very decent gear and don't know too much about it at all, learning these techniques from different people with a different explanation is really helping me out. I've finally moved out of the Automatic mode and have a somewhat clearer understanding. Regards joe
This is why I read Stunning Photography, LR Classic, and Photoshop; with the included videos there’s no better way to learn. I Started LR a couple days ago, and 20 minutes into the book and video I learned a ton of useful stuff I didn’t know about, and I’ve been using LR and PS for years. Most importantly, they make it fun.
Newbie here. It might sound pathetic, but I usually just using auto mode in my mirrorless camera, because whenever I use the M mode the picture is always dark. Thanks to your video, I finally understand how to take proper picture with M mode! Thanks a lot!
You guys enlightened me as a beginner photographer, now i just need to practice and practice, I usually using Av mode but now ill try to use the manual mode
jturie Glad it helped! We made it specifically b/c we know it's a topic people still struggle with after reading Chapter 4. This will go into the next update of SDP.
Always used manual back in the days of film, but became lazy when I started using digital, having watched this video I think I will give it a go again, thanks T&C
Great video, as always. It's so true that the camera becomes something so important and if you know it well you change settings automatically and once you understand the exposure triangle (ISO, Aperture and Shutter speed) everything is easy. Keep it going. Hope to see a video showing manual on studio environment. I know is almost the same just that the shutter is used to control the ambient light but I really like your style and how you teach.
i have learned so many things about camera from seeing your videos.... Thank you Mr Tony and Ms Chelsea for your guidance..... thinking to own a DSLR very soon. Love from India 😊😊 Is it possible to get your book on Photography in UAE - Dubai

This is the simplest yet detailed explanation I've seen on the entire internet! Great video. Learnt a lot.
Couldn't have put it any better.

Ardent Dfender Agree 100%
I totally agree! They made it simple and easy to start using right away!
Getting back to basics, i like that. If it was not for videos like these many beginners would be lost. Makes me happy to see these types of videos slipped in every now and then. Keep up the great work guys.
Magallon Thanks! We're prepping an update to SDP.
Tony Northrup
You guys make such a great team. I love how you guys took turns talking. You guys are so captivating. Thank you for helping all of us.
WOW!!!! you've made this seem so easy and not complicated at all! First video to do that for me! Thank you!
Glad we could help!
this is so crsytal clear other videos are so complicated :')
+Imad Hussain Glad to help!
Imaddness I couldn't agree even more

Thanks, Cyrus!
I'm a beginner and after watching over a hundred videos I can say this is without a doubt the most helpful one I've come across. I'm buying their book. Bravo!
After months of searching for a decent 'how to' video, I came across this. Amazing, easy to follow and not making it sound to complicated. Andy.

What a wonderfully calm and professional way of tutoring. I´ve know the ground rules for decades, but this reminder didn´t get boring. I´ll check out the rest and keep you in mind if anyone asks me about where to start understanding their camera. Good work.

Hey Tony, I'm the beginner in photography and just love you lessons. Great work
good training but you guys will have to teach us which camera type and model since they varies
I've seen many videos about the manual mode, but this is by far the clearest I've seen!
Just in curiosity I bought my first DSLR camera Canon 1200D with no knowledge about it. After watching all your tutorials, I started to love my camera and photography and learnt so many things from your videos. Very detailed information and easy to understand live demonstration. Thank you guys. Awesome work...
Wow, you have no idea how many videos I've watched trying to understand this, with this one it all suddenly fell into place, crystal clear, thank you.
One of the few videos I've watched re: understanding the basics of photography that has finally helped me to 'get it'! Thank you.
Wow finally a camera function is explained in layman terms👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
The Nikon d7200 guide you have on youtube is the best i could get anywhere and thanks for encouraging enthusiasts like me to take more pictures in manual mode now.
I’ve probably watched a dozen or more hours of videos and yours is the one and only so far that has truly explained this all in a way I can understand. I’m now really excited to get out and take some photos. Def be watching more of your stuff.
As a new aspiring photographer with absolutely no experience or training, I really appreciate your videos!
Thank you!

Simple yet most brilliant explanations seen until now. Thanks!
tbh, these are my favorite videos. it's genuine and quite informative. i prefer this style over the current style.
I like seeing you both explaining things calmly.
Thank you so much for explaining this in detail. It now makes sense to me. Just got my first DSLR and had no idea what to do, great video and very informative.

You are both very photogenic as well!

Don't worry; it's not that scary. Pick one at sdp.io/whichcamera and then watch the tutorial at sdp.io/tutorial. Enjoy!
Best video I've see so far to use manual mode!!
Thank you so much for summarizing it efficiently.
