Thank you so much for watching! Leave your photography questions in a comment below and maybe I'll make a video in the future to answer them!
David Manning so I Just got into doing photography I got a Fujifilm s1800 and it takes AA batteries, the batteries that I use die very fast and I was wondering what u think would be the best recharging batteries or what would be the best batteries to use thank u for the help
And I watched this video so far 3 to 4 time to lock it in lol
Hi, this is Farhan Rahman. I am from Bangladesh. I do photography with my iPhone. Can you make a video regarding photography with an iPhone using camera + app? Thank you in advance.
I love this crash course! Every new photographer needs to understand it though so I'm planning to make a tutorial in Filipino using a Canon Rebel or 80D. Thanks for sharing!!! 😍
More about flat lay photography n how to get better WHITE balance!
How can I be a good mobile photographer??
ISO - Sensitivity to light.
- More ISO = more light (but also more grains and noise)
- outdoor - ISO100
- Shade - ISO200
- Indoor - ISO400-800
Aperture - Size of opening in the lens.
- smaller the number 👉🏼 bigger the hole (more light)
- CONTROLS DEPTH OF FIELD.
- smaller the f/stop lower the depth of field.
- Only one person - low f/stop (f/2)
- more person - f/3.5 f/4 etc.,
- For everything to be in focus (in landscape imgs) go to f/16 or f/20
Shutter speed - Amount of time the shutter is open.
- 1/100, 1/250, 1/8000 of a second etc.,
- slower shutter speed 👉🏼 1", 2", 30" seconds.
- CONTROLS MOTION BLUR.
- Slow shutter speeds - used when on tripods.
- Faster shutter speed used for sports etc.
- For portrait - 1/250, 1/500 (ppl look sharp)
- slow shutter speed (1/100) Works best for low light situations as well.
- SLOW SHUTTER SPEED = MORE MOTION BLUR (More light)
- When subject is moving - 1/800
- FASTER SHUTTER SPEED = LESS MOTION BLUR.
Setting:
1. Set ISO first based on scene light (ISO100 OR 200 for outdoors)
2. Decide how much depth of field you want (focus only 1 person or focus the next nearby person (2) etc.,) More Aperture = more depth of focus.
3. How much motion blur I want to avoid?
4.
You take a TEST shot of the scene and the pic is too DARK .
1. Slow shutter speed down until you don't see a motion blur.
2. Lower Aperture to LET MORE LIGHT until the subject is in focus.
3. Raise your ISO.
You take a TEST shot of the scene and the pic is too BRIGHT.
1. Reduce ISO.
2. Raise shuttter speed.
3. VERY LAST, Raise the Aperture (Remember you' ll have larger circle IN FOCUS)
This comment should be pinned to the top.
Thank you
thank you for the note!
Thank you. I'm looking into photography.
Really Appreciate 🙏 I got everything what I missed in video 👍
And that my friend, is how things should be taught. Clear, concise, with visuals of modifications. Amazing job!
10/10
Yeah your right. It's better explained than in my photography course that I visited a few years ago
Seriously! I needed this kind of video long ago. I'm subscribing now because of it.
And straight to the point
You forgot got to add that thank me later :)
Damn..I'm still confused 🤣
Finally someone who can actually explain how a camera work without just spouting out numbers. A very simple and clear video thankyou.
Literally the most straightforward no-nonsense breakdown of photography ever! Thank you!
I've had my camera for 2 years but I was too depressed and had the artist's block and almost forgot how to use it. It's 5am here and I wanna go photograph the sunrise for the first time in almost 1.5 years and this video really helped me thank you so much and Wish me luck❤
Wishing you the best! Hope you continue in photography and do what you love 💜
Wish you the Best, thank you for sharing with us 🙏🏽
U got this Man!
You can do it.
To what do we owe your finding some happiness? Some others of us could use some too. ☺️
~ My own notes:
7:56 summary of everything
0:57 ISO - the sensitivity of camera sensor; the higher the iso, the more sensitive the cam sensor is gonna be; higher iso = more light but also more noise and grainy as well; set your iso based on the SCENE
2:40 Aperture - the size of lens opening/hole; the smaller the aperture, the bigger the lens hole, the more light comes in and vice versa; example: lens f/3.5 & f/38... 3.5 has bigger hole while 38 has smaller hole; the picture gets more detailed as the lens opening gets smaller; set your aperture based on the SUBJECT; if you want more depth of field (or more detailed pic), go for higher aperture (or small lens opening)
5:55 Shutter speed - the amount of time (in seconds) that the shutter is open; example: 1/50, 1/250, or 1/8000 of a second for faster shutter speed. There is also 1", 2" , 10" for slower shutter speed meaning your shutter is open for 10" (10 seconds); shutter speed controls motion blur, use faster shutter speed for sports to capture crisp motion and make a fast-moving object freeze in time and avoid blur; slow shutter speed = more motion blur
Fix scenario #1: image is too dark:
- slow the shutter speed
- lower the aperture
- raise the iso
Fix scenario #2: too bright:
- lower the iso
- raise the shutter speed
- raise the aperture
Appreciate it !
All heroes done wear capes 👍
I can't believe u wrote that
This was very helpful
Can this get pinned
as someone who has adhd and severly struggles with retaining information and keeping attention this was the best video to explain this stuff ive seen yet. direct to the point with out using huge words
Same! I also have ADHD. Short explanations in simple terms works wonders.
The aperture part when you use the ruler to explain the depth was the best.
Thanks got one of the simplest, shortest but best photography tutorial.
This was essentially my college photography class, that I paid over $1200 for in 10 minutes.....for free...
Awesome vid man!
Edit: seeing as there are a lot of people taking this comment EXTREMELY literally, let me clarify. Yes I paid a lot for my photography class in college, but it was only one part of the overall program I was in. It also included work with Photoshop, InDesign and some other things. However, the info in this video was the majority of the focus. So chill people lol!!!
Hahahaa! Best comment so far Jacob!!!
but but u did get a piece of paper telling u that u accomplished something!!
@@inquisitvem6723 🤣🤣 yes I did.
That is hilarious!
It’s really just the exposure triangle, I think you overpaid regardless
This was like half a semester of Photography 101 (which I took ten years ago) in 10 minutes. Awesome! Thanks so much. So helpful.
Haha! Love hearing that Grace!
Hmm studying photography be easy
Moral of the story, school is a waste of energy!
@@peacefulrelaxation5989 do you really think so? I'm considering going back to school but am really on the fence atm..
@@moonlitmesmerization554 it is its a waste of money in fields like this cuz google and RUclips can teach you for free
Havent used my camera in a long time, went super in depth for all of this a long time ago but this was a great refresher
It's all about how something is explained. I've watched videos about photography in Portuguese, which is my language, and in English, and this video is by far the most insightful and educational of all.
This is the first time in years ive actually learned something without having to go over it 10 times
The accuracy in this lol I wish he was my math teacher
Right
"Explain it to me like I'm a 5 year old" is, by far, the best way to start when venturing into this world as a beginner. The explanations were given under the premise the viewer knew nothing about each setting, right down to when and why a photographer would need to change any of them. The examples were a great visual aid as well. This was exactly what I needed to feel ready for the next step in learning. Thank you!!
ruclips.net/video/OHnbzmBwd_M/видео.html
I immediately liked the video and subscribed when he said that. Please yes, teach me like I’m a 5 year old lol. 😂🥰⚡️🌈💫
The screen shot bit was great! More creators should do this. Adds a lot of value
Love how you not only explain the basics and use cases but then bring it all together in a real-world situation towards the end. Very helpful, thanks. 🙏
The hard part is trying to remember all this information. This video will definitely be replayed several times.
you could always take notes, it does help. read them over just in case you forget.
@@OminousV Great tip
Take notes on your phone and carry it with you to use in the field.
@@thehandsomeyogi8383 Thank you for advice. I'll definitely take it on board.
@@SiansBookcases create a small cheat sheet, I do allot of 3d and have one for everything, I always reference them
I appreciate you explaining this like I'm 5. This is the first time I actually feel like I understand how cameras are supposed to work
That's the best man! So cool to hear!!!
Your ISO, aperture, and shutter speed chart is amazing! It is the best I've seen. The visual definitely helps.
It's going to be my first time to teach basic photography to our interns tomorrow and this is quite a good refresher video.
Nice one!
Loving how you explained this. I now understand a few things that sounded really foreign to me.
Perfect! That's exactly what I'm going for! Trying to unwind the confusing stuff and lay it out as simple as possible :)
:V
I agree! Some of this stuff just sounds so confusing and terrifying. I appreciate how you truly focused on beginners here
Same is with me.
Please subscribe to my channel: ruclips.net/channel/UCl32wsdm7M6w9imZNnLqIsQ
I tell people all of the time not to waste their money on photography tours/lessons. I can teach them everything in 15 minutes. I allow an extra 5 for them to set up the camera :-) People overthink and over analyze cameras and photography these days.
I totally agree!
Well can be a student?
Also, I think that either you have an eye for photography, or you don't. So anyone who has, will absorb this information very quickly because they just 'get it' 👏📸
Yes. U can learn free online but you can do a course aswell just to be true, you know what I mean? That course it's gonna be your start
I want to learn
The best video on basics I’ve ever seen. Very concise and to the point about the most important aspects of using the camera. Thank you!
I'm just getting into photography and had no idea what anything was (ISO, Aperture, F/stop) but this video is great! Thank you so much! Im getting really excited to get my first camera.
Ooo we just starting straight away yeah ? Love that ... no intro ..no hello.. boom INFORMATION 10 minute straight! Subbed my brother ...let’s see more !
I took photography in University. You explained ISO so well, simply, memorably and applicably. You actually made sense of it in one fell swoop 🤗
I’d never heard of it before it and makes no sense whatsoever according to how he explained it
Well done David. I’m in my 70’s and just wanting to get back into photography again. (Damn those phone cameras!) and your piece is a great way to start. Clear and concise.🇦🇺🇺🇸
I did photography as a subject in high school but completely forgot about everything and a couple years later, here i am, trying to relearn everything. Your video has helped me so much! I'm so excited to experiment and improve!
" talk to me like a 5 yo " that's it ! You should tell your math teacher this !!
Yes, and we're going to get started at 8:00 for a full and concise definition

When he said that, it reminded me of the movie Philadelphia, where Denzel Washington, who plays Tom Hank’s attorney, tells his client to “Explain this to me like I’m a six year old.”
Yes me too i just didn`t remember the name of the movie but i knew it was danzel ...
Hi fellow weeb
Reminds me of The Office when Michael said, “Why don’t you explain it to me like I’m five.”
*9:43** - SCREENSHOT!*
Uh there's no need to memorize that.
Ahaha thanks
@@ballersforlife1674 It's literally a reference sheet for beginners.
I started studying photography very recently and this is one of THE BEST videos I came across for the subject (I should have seen this first before watching lots of others). This is very short video but have the essential basics covered. The SS was awesome. Thank you for the word ISO (eye-so) ... I never knew !!!
As a beginner I really appreciate this video. Clear, concise, nand you make it seem simple which help instill confidence. Thank you greatly!
The simplicity of this video is mind boggling. How you managed to condense all that relevant info in less than 10 minutes is really something. Kudos!
Overexposed:
1. Lower the iso
2. Faster shutter
3. Use ND filter
4. Dont touch aperture, use nd.
What’s ND filter?
@@ginjaninja6585 Neutral-density filter
@@ginjaninja6585 Basically like sun glasses for your camera. Lowers the light coming in
I use a 1.4 lens with 200iso rolls and a three stop filter.
Camera Cheat Sheet
ISO: (hgher ISO = more light and noise)
- Sunny: 100
- Shade: 200
- Indoors: 400-800 (1600-3200)
f/ - Aperture: (higher the f/ less light, lower the f/ more light) & (higher the f/ more depth of field, lower the f/ less depth of field)
- Aperture controls depth of field
Shutter Speed: The amount of time (measured in seconds) your shutter is open.
- Shutter speed also controls motions blur.
- Slow shutter speeds are used in conjunction with a tripod (landscape or silky smooth cotton candy waterfall) all the way up to long exposure astrophotography shots.
- Fast shutter speeds are used for action shots (sports, people or pets running) fast shutter speeds freeze the subject without motion blur.
Step 1.) Set ISO based on scene
Step 2.) Set f/ - Aperture based on subject.
- One person, low depth of field
f/1.4, f/1.8, f/2, f/2.5
- Group of people, medium depth of field
f/3.5, f/4 (f/8 is a good middle ground to make sure everyone is in focus)
- Landscape (All subjects in focus)
i.e. tree and mountain both in focus (no blur)
f/16, f/22
- Indoor (dark / low light)
f/1.4, f/1.8
Step 3.) Set Shutter Speed based on subject
- Portrait (no motion blur, crispy)
1/250 - 1/500
- Walking or Running subject
1/800 or 1/100 for low light (subject is still)
- Sports
1/800, 1/1000 or higher. The faster the subject is moving, the faster the shutter needs to be. The objective is to freeze the subject without producing motion blur.
Problems & Fixes
Problem 1:
- You’re shot is ready. The settings are dialed in, but the shot is too dark.
Fix 1:
- There are 3 places to go to get more light.
* Lower shutter speed until you start seeing motion blur, then back it off.
* Lower aperture until the subject goes out of focus, then back it off.
* Raise ISO (last resort)
Problem 2:
- Your shot is ready. The settings are dialed in, but the shot is too bright.
Fix 2:
* First thing to do is lower ISO because there is enough light.
* If the image is still too bright after lowering the ISO then you need to raise the shutter speed.
* Very last thing (after the first two) would be to raise aperture. Don’t sacrifice depth of field for less light. You can fix blown out highlights with the first two.
As an artist I’ve always struggled so much to understand the “technical” side of photography (basically wherever numbers come in, embarrassingly enough….) and have relied on immersing myself in experience as a way to memorize and comprehend the camera settings… but the way you explained them just now was so clear, it clicked and I finally understood it!! Thank you so much!
I really like this photographer I discovered. He's very unique. ruclips.net/video/6XGETo4YxM4/видео.html
I really appreciate this as someone who is very easily confused, I appreciate being talked to like a child when it comes to camera settings 😅 thanks for this!
Aa
I’ve taken a few photos on my camera phone that I had edited, printed and hung in my office. Wanted to go to the next level but didn’t have a clue where to start. Thanks to you I now have notes explaining the functions and a sweet chart at that. Thank you!!!!
Probably never see this but this one of the best videos for beginners I’ve seen. Explains the basics and SHOWING EXAMPLES ! Which is hugeeee !! Not knowing some of terms made ir really confusing to me when they didn’t show pictures. But this helped a lot ! You’ll probably never see this but thank you lol
I don’t have time to respond to all the comments, but I see them all! Thank you Alex, super kind of you to say!
I almost never comment RUclips videos, but man this guy brought so much value... Big like and sub! Plus you deserve more views.

THIS is what those of us just getting started need. The basic foundation of how our cameras operate and how we can use simple, straight forward principles to get decent shots. Much like people who buy high performance cars and drive 10 mph under the limit, it's annoying to see someone with a $500+ camera with it switched to AUTO. Thanks David!
This is truly photography 101 for any beginner like me. Thanks very much for this.
Can't thank you enough for making this so simple. I've been vlogging on youtube for a year now using my mobile phone for footage and editing. I've just bought myself a Canon 4000d as I have fallen in love with photography and want to grow in this area. Looking forward to trying it out now I have more of an idea what I'm doing now. Thanks again this is gold
Wow! You explain things in such simple terms! Makes me wonder why other people try to make it sound like you need to be a scientist, before they try to explain these things. Thanks, from the bottom of my heart! 🙏
Absolutely! Stoked that it was helpful👍
that is funny and true. Used to go to photography asso meetings and most of the time it was people one upping each other about equipment vs talking about how and whys. This was a great tutorial. Thanks.
If someone can't explain easy enough mostly they themselves are not clear about it. The other thing is good photography is involved but not a deep science subject which requires deep amount of knowledge. Usually you start with basics and if it sticks you will learn on ur own by experience but some folks who charge huge amount of money needs to make it complicated to look their expensive course worthy.
Hey man I just wanna say this video is insane. Half a year ago i bought a Camera and only took photos in Auto-mode because I didn't understand this whole manual stuff with ISO, SS and so on. Now I understood all of this and the pictures are dope! Thank you very much.
Me right now feeling a bit confused. But this video helped me understood the 3 main points of photography. I've recently just started getting into photography. Id like to learn more since I want to save up to buy a cheap camera just to take photos of people or portraits as a beginner.
I like to use auto mode just bcs its faster in some case like at safari but if i have plenty of time to shoot i prefer the manual mode or one of the three priority mode.
set it to Av mode, set auto iso and change manualy only aperture, that's the best more for like 90% of all situations, playing with completely manual mode is crazy for begginers
@@Pidalin what exactly is AV mode? I have a $300 Nikon, not sure if I even have this setting... ?
@@jadeSLenin I mean aperture priority, which is what most of photographers use most of the time. I don't know how it's marked on Nikon cameras, it's mostly Av or just A. www.oehling.cz/data/imgs/29/0031329l.jpg You just set aperture manualy, so you have control over depth of field and you let other things (shutter speed and ISO) on auto which is ok in most of situations.
I really appreciate this video - I've been looking for something like this for a long time! My dad is a professional photographer, so I grew up with a camera in my hand, but oddly enough was never taught the basics. My shots are great as far as composition, but it's a gamble as far as the technical stuff. Thank you for the primer!
DAVID THANK YOU SO SO MUCH! As a newbie photographer/videographer I have been scouring RUclips for explanations. And this right here...was EXTREMELY clear, thorough, and FUN!!!! I cannot thank you enough! 🙏💛
Im a beginner who knows absolutely nothing, and a lot of the other videos on this topic that I’ve watched have given me a lot of information very quickly and it’s been very overwhelming. Your video on the other hand put terms in the simplest way possible and it’s been really helpful!! Thank you so much for making this!!😊❤️❤️

Oh, I LOVE YOU!! You are sooo easy to understand! I am learning so I could take pictures of my products and this has been a life saver!! ❤
This video is so concise and helpful, a great starting point. Loved the chart you made. Thank you.
The advice to set ISO first and shutter speed last is great for photography. However, everyone should keep in mind that if shooting video, the order is basically reversed. You typically want the shutter speed set as close as possible to 2x your framerate, you still want to set aperture second to get the depth of field you want, and then you adjust ISO last to get brightness to match. If your camera doesn't have enough usable ISO range to achieve the right target brightness, if the image is too bright, you can darken it with filters. If it's too dark/noisy on the other hand, then you may have to compromise on depth of field, and possibly slow down the shutter speed slightly.
As someone just getting started with a "professional camera," this video was exactly what I needed! Thanks!
How’s it going?
How u making out?
You doin' ok?

You genius!!! Thanks. I will see your postings. You are the first youtuber that explains really easy for me to understand in photography!!!
Been shooting for many years. This is the best explanation I have ever seen.
1:01 2:12 2:31 *ISO*
2:41 *Aperture* Higher f/stop = Less light, More Depth of Field
Lower f/stop = More light, Less Depth of Field
4:10 *Depth of Field*
5:55 *Shutter Speed* → Controls Motion Blur
→ Faster Subject = Faster Shutter Speed
→ Slower Subject = Slower Shutter Speed
→ Slower Shutter Speed = More Motion Blur
→ Higher Shutter Speed = Less Motion Blur
8:28 First Scenario
9:05 Second Scenario
9:43 The Chart for yeah.

Thank you so much for this synopsis very simple and clear just started learning photography hope to see more of your videos ❤❤❤❤
Wow, I'm thinking of taking up this as a hobby, as a total novice, this explained a lot - Thanks
Have to say, I want to start getting a bit more serious about photography and having watched many RUclips videos on photography. Yours is the best, most informative, most detailed, easiest to understand with one of the best explanations on photography terms. Yours covers things that I would have to watch in 4-5 videos. Keep up the good work! Liked and definitely subscribed 👍🏻💪🏻
Thanks L Rahman! I'm so stoked this was helpful!
Wow best way I found all this explained.
The different point of view conclusions at the end are amazingly helpful to at least know the first thing to do depending on your cases!

Thanks Jon! I appreciate that man!
It would not even be possible to make this easier, thank you for the excellent explenation.
Stoked man, thank you so much! I think it usually gets explained in an overcomplicated way that intimidates and turns people off photography. Hopefully when people see that the basis of it all is super simple, they'll dig in and spend more time on the more complex bits!
Every other video that I have Watched until this one,now, made it sound like astronomy… and there you go in 10 minutes, in simple words, straight to the point…
Thank you so so much !!!
This was the most helpful video on how to learn photography that I have ever come across! THANK YOU! I've been struggling trying to learn on my own. I recently inherited a bunch of photography equipment and have been trying to learn. I feel like I now have a foundation to build on!

I am about to start trying more professional photography other then my phone but all these videos are just talking about terms and not explaining what they mean. This really helped me understand those and will help me gain more knowledge in the future. Tysm for helping me realize my vision❤
What a great job you did with this video!! Simple , clear and concise. Thank you for sharing your knowledge in a manner anyone could understand. Appreciated!!!
This video makes me want go straight outside and start using the camera in garden during this Covid-19 lockdown.
Lol! I just bought my first DSLR yesterday and also planted a new garden yesterday. Guess what I'll be doing these coming months.
It's a perfect chance to test your photography and look around the yard to take note of anything needing cleaning up
That’s what I’ve been doing! I bought my canon 80D in March and I’ve been using it at home and on a walking trail near my house. I’ve watched so many RUclips videos to help with learning photography, but this guy was by far the best! So simple.
I am a beginner photographer in this is immensely helpful!!!!
tysm!!!
Thank you for this video! While I'm more particular to landscape photography, I've been needing to get better at group lowlight candid photography for the live events that my RUclipsr friends put on! This video was extremely helpful!!
I just watched Basics in 10 minutes really well done ! Unless you're a trained actor you have the natural gift of public speaking. I took a Photography class in high school (class of 76) now retired and experiencing the urge to shoot again. Of course in the 70's it was film and there was a certain rush you don't get in the digital age the excitement of the image appearing on the blank page in the developing solution and heady aroma of the chemicals. Back then no instant test shot you evaluated the the shot the same way then took multiple shots adjusting the settings and it wasn't until you got to the dark room that you could tell what worked which added to the excitement. I needed a quick refresher on the basics you just described and it all came flooding back. The 70's was a special time grow up it's funny once I learned the basics in my adolescent arrogance I never did the homework but I was always shooting what interested me. After a few months I said to my teacher I never do the homework and you never say anything. He said the homework was for people who don't have ideas of their own keep doing what you're doing. I like the fact that you give precise easy to understand information without bullshit small talk unnecessary bells and whistles. I'm a trained Actor and as you can see I can talk. Excuse me for pontificating but your video inspired me.
Thank you.
"Keep your ISO low"
2 seconds later
"I keep my ISO at 3200 it looks nice"
Hahahaa "In low light"🤣👍
This comment was 🤌
Was thinking the same thing
But if you camera shoots in 25200 iso then i don’t think that’s to high
@@_MANDEX_1 yeah lol
I actually adjust the ISO last all the time. I see ISO as a last measure that will only be bumped up from 100 if I really need it. Usually I just set my aperture first, then my shutter speed as low as possible while maintaining the ISO at 100, and only if I can't make the shutter speed slower than what I usually feel comfortable (around 1/160), only then I'll bump up the ISO. I use a 1.4 56mm on a Sony a6400, btw.
Same
Same here, with my Canon M50 the image quality starts to deteriorate after around 800 ISO, so I have to keep it low
I usually leave iso at 100/200 when it's before dark
This is easily the best tutorial I've seen on RUclips, PERIOD. I never comment, but wow I felt that I had to. Hats off to you sir
Finally found a video that explains the really basics of photography....I've been looking at other videos but I really didt grasp the concept of it...thanks for the vid

Lmfao!!!
wait
Thank you, thank you, thank you, David!! I've been taking a terrible photography course in school and haven't learned hardly anything, but rather have gotten more and more confused. Your way of explaining things, along with the examples, has been a life and grade saver! I'm a little less terrified and in tears about photography now due to your videos, so THANK YOU!
I am trying to learn on my canon rebel t5i on 50mm and 18-55mm for baby shower
Try Aperture priority mode as I've been learning as well and see your photos go to the next level. Happy shooting!
@@jennifertanner5667 wish you the best on your photo shoot!
Thanks David, I'm so glad I came across this. Excellent tutorial that has really stayed in my head. Perfect!
You’ve done such an awesome job in putting together just right amount of information for someone to get the gist of what they should know when they pick up a dslr camera. Great refresher for a semi pro too!
I don't even own a camera but still this was so helpful and interesting
Same here
You can apply it to your Phone Camera if you can :)
@@gionspenzers I think some phone cameras like the S9+ I think was the first phone camera with a variable aperture lens so you could actually apply the aperture changing techniques from the video to it.
@@willwunsche6940 Yeah it's pretty cool that a phone camera can actually change the size of the Aperture of your camera at a small size of a grain. (Camera of a Cellphone is very small at sizes, like a size of a Pea or A Grain of Rice)
This was incredibly helpful! I've read so much on photography and nothing ever stuck. But your explanations were so easy to follow. Thank you so much!!
I just got a T7, and am an ultra-noob. I know I'll never be a professional, but these concepts are really useful. I just want to make my kids pics nice. Music, guitar, choir, and musical theater. Family vacations would be cool too. Bonus if the dog comes through. Thanks!
