So glad you still manage to come up with fresh new content 11 years after the first upload! Taught me everything I know and heres to the next 11 years and beyond! Many thanks for all your enthusiasm and drive Mike, you have changed the lives of 100's if not 1000's of us. Eternally grateful, Your Loyal Students :)
Same here, from all YT videos and channels I simply love honesty in Mikes videos and that he started from small bits and pieces. I learned everything from you Mike!
I have to tell you, I really started to take my photography seriously once I found your videos way back when. You helped me a great deal, like someone who is right beside me talking to me, not judging etc. Thanks for keeping it real, many others on the internet could learn from your kind, gracious approach. Thank you!
Ahh Mike, this video should be issued with every camera sold! Direct, to the point and easy to understand, trade mark of your videos. A must watch for those stuck to auto, ps love the bike. Cheers to you & the team.
Mr Browne, you keep dropping sprinkles of gold dust, and I keep picking them up! Your ability to talk fluently about technical matters is second to none. Another masterpiece to assist many people like myself. I admire your teaching style which is clearly true to yourself, enjoy the simplistic way in which you describe these technical matters. As well as learning about photography you have me searching my camera trying to figure out where certain things are (continuous focus v whatever else there is) loved the example at the end of shooting with 200 and the creative effect it had on the image. Again, thank you so much
I’ve watched this video a few times now and have recommended to many people. I find it to be the most useful resource to understanding the what light meter actually is telling me and how to select the appropriate exposure settings for the scene and what I want to capture. Plus I like hearing Mike calling his camera names. Thanks Mike!
Learned a lot in this one short video, Mike. Excellent.And your final, bonus number 6 was one of the best demonstrations of how the zoom and distance from the subject made those changes that I can ever recall seeing.
Mr. Browne: I don’t quite know the words to say my thanks and gratefulness, your lesson is just amazing. This was a pleasure to watch your video and I got to much information to use. Thanks again Sir
So glad that you come whit a new video, i m miss you op RUclips whit new video's . This video is formidabel. I looking for newer works of you, thank you very mutch , your a great teacher . Your fan from Holland
Thank you Gert. Haven't done as many over the last year because time's been spent on other projects. Each of these takes up around 20 hours to complete or I'd do more... MIKE :-)
Take as little or as much info as you like. As always, great information presented in simple to understand language !!! I have enjoyed, and learned so much over the years from you, and your no BS style of teaching. Much appreciated...
10:28 - I'll be damned if it is not the best flower photo I've ever seen. Definitely not the usual composition. This is why it's worth to watch Mike's tutorials even if you've been photographing for years and know all the stuff he talks about.
Once again, a great video tutorial and always a pleasure to watch, for photographers of all abilities...A really direct and concise way of getting the important information across, without being 'preachy' or condescending...it's super easy to watch and get engaged with and one will always pick things up much more quickly as a result...and I think a really important point of this video, when the basics are mastered and you are comfortable with and can control your camera (and the points you mention and to master are obviously the foundation on which to launch forwards and build on as a photographer), is the super-important part of 'you', the individual, in the development and progression of your photography...I see so many people obsessed with the latest kit, accessories, software etc etc, as if this was the golden key to the magic door of photography.."get the latest camera, get the latest gizmo, get the latest upgrade and all will be great."...of course you need the latest upgrades to software like Lightroom and Photoshop etc, if you have it, but don't become gear obsessed and think the really great camera you had a couple of years ago and loved is all of a sudden obsolete and no good, because a sparkly brand new one has just been released, unless you have really deep pockets. Only yesterday I was looking at various RUclips videos on the new Canon 90D release and was stunned by some of the comments... In my opinion, learn the absolute essential basics as Mike says, get some decent kit (and it doesn't have to cost a fortune), a decent entry level DSLR, 18-135mm kit lens (or an 18-55), 64MB memory card, tripod, shutter release cable, camera bag and a few other accessories, will get you started!..get out, learn the basics and take photos and practice! If you are a beginner in photography, follow the basics Mike has laid out here, track down some stuff on basic composition, framing and the importance of light, again, no doubt Mike will have these in his videos and courses, and you will have a nice platform to launch your photography adventure...enjoy and take photos!...practice, practice, practice!!! Nice job Mike...……………….and thankfully, no mind-numbingly inane music in Mike's videos! Mmmm, Mike's videos concise and to the point and my RUclips comments not..ah well...lol
Bravo Maestro!! Ottimo lavoro signore. I really appreciate your coverage on Histograms. For some reason I just do not get along with them very well. This truly has been a shot in the arm for me. Also, on a personal note, good job in slimming down. It will certainly add to your longevity. Once again, many thanks for another excellent presentation. Cheers mate. Tony :)
Thanks Martin. It was ever thus. Did Leonado Da Vincis brushes paint the Mona Lisa? Does the Steinway Grand Piano rate a standing ovation or the person playing it. Photography's no different regardless of the internet rumours and marketing hype.. MIKE :-)
That's great to hear Chris - have you seen my Masterclass course? Sounds like it could be right up your street www.photographycourses.biz/courses/photography-masterclass
Excellent guide video. I said icing on the cake. You have already done lots of video related this. This one is like abstract of a research paper, telling important controls of the camera and how to use it effectively. Thanks for your great effort in making this video and allign the concepts in particular order.
As always, another brilliant video. Your building blocks of photography course proves invaluable; the information and practices definitely stick with you. In a world of such fast-paced photography, it's so refreshing to watch how you encourage a slower process of thoughtful photography. Thank you.
Thanks Timothy. .. I love the beginners days because it's so great to see little light bulbs coming on for everyone as they get new ideas and principles... MIKE :-)
I think the first video I saw of you was the rule of thirds and I still remember it and follow it today! 9 yrs later. Good vid Mike. Your location was actually something I was thinking of asking you to do one day, some nice port photography ;-)
Always something to learn from you, in fact (without you knowing it), you have been my mentor and inspirator since I first discovered your videos. I learned a lot from you! Remember the first one I saw, it was pt. 1 of the Street photography videos, and since then, I've seen them all several times. Never get boring, so keep on making these kind of videos. Love'em!!
Mike, I've been enjoying your videos for a couple of years now, and always look forward to seeing new content from you. You have helped me go from snapshots to artistic creations. Thank you and keep it up. I'm sure there are many more that can benefit from your help.
Love your clear reminders of the basics. Those beyond beginner stage know all this but it is so easy to forget to apply the points you make every time shooting!
🙏 Thank you alborada777. Please share it around and help me make more like it. And if you'd like to learn exactly how to master the top 5 controls, please take a look at my online Beginners Course. You can even try a free sample. Link below my friend... MIKE bit.ly/U_B_C
I love what you said Mike at the 7:01 or so mark. What's the point of following the light meter if you're just going to expose for middle grey. Might as well be in auto instead of adjusting the knobs yourself. Also, in all the years that I've been watching you, I don't think I've ever seen you in a tee-shirt! 😀Anyway, glad to see you're still making amazing content.
Great to see an updated video in a lovely location. It reminds me of our holiday last year. Doing mostly wildlife photography, I don't have much choice but to use manual mode. Birds don't always sit on a branch with the light on them. Or if they do, there can be a bright sky behind them. Then the next shot will be on a dark bush in a shadow. It's knowing how to cope with different conditions, quickly. Mastering the exposure triangle is a must, it comes with practice. Exposure compensation can be handy, just remember to reset it afterwards.. I've been caught out a couple of times by forgetting to do that..... Great video Mike......Alan............ PS, nice bike
Oh I love your videos! Just the right amount of education/humor/confidence boosting! Canon shooter that bought an xt2 last summer. It’s my fave camera ❤️
As usual another awesome video. Very informative with easy to understand descriptions and not rubbish to pad it out. Great laid back none confronting training is the way to teach. I have forwarded a link to the members of my photography group here in Adelaide Australia. Well done. Please keep it coming. Chris from under down under in Aus.
Hey thanks Chris. If they're interested all these vids are are on my website searchable by category, skill level etc and have additional articles with more info too. Link below if you are... MIKE www.photographycourses.biz/videos
Have to say Mike, nothing in this video was news to me but I wish there was someone like you 40+ years ago when I was learning it would have been so much easier. Well presented easy to follow good advice. Great tutorial.
Thanks Gedion 🙏. If you learn and master these techniques and controls - you can take on pretty much anything. I can help you do that in my Ultimate Beginners Course. Please take a look at the link below... MIKE www.photographycourses.biz/ubc
Mike I did see all you RUclips videos and then you behave on the web all around and I believe that I need to say, thanks to you. I am French Canadian and you are also one of my English teachers. Merci
Thanks Mike. I too have been around for many years with you and have learned tons from your courses. Best bang for the buck and you have a bit of fun with it as well. Always something to learn on this gig. Cheers! P.S. If your ever in Canada, let us know.
I've heard this stuff a 100 times but your explanation is 1 of the best especially if you are a plumber. Just subscribed and looking forward to your next video _/)_
Always love your videos mike you really know how to explain the subject well, but in an approachable fun and friendly way. Your videos always inspire me to pick my camera back up and get out there and pratice.
Thanks for another informative video, Mike. Learning a lot. Even practiced while watching this video by taking a few photos of you and the videographer on screen. Delighted that they actually came out rather well, Sylvia.
Mike, this was very helpful and a great reminder. I always get so much out of your videos. I wish there was a way to access the courses, but my ISP continues to block email from your course server so my only option is to watch what I can on RUclips. It's better than no Mike Browne. Mike, you truly have a gift, not only as a photographer, but as a teacher. Many thanks from the US.
Great instructional content as always from this photographer. Especially like the two UFO appearances at 10.05 and 10.35 in the background; very intriguing 🤔
Best 20 minutes of my day so far!!! I'm so glad to see these teaching videos in my subscription box. I took both your courses a while back and they are GREAT! On a side note, I very much like the way your controls are placed on that camera. I wish they were all so easily accessible! Thanks so much for sharing your brain and content!
Thank you Jennifer. Delighted you loved the courses. Yes - having the controls I use all the time as knobs and switches on the camera instead of burried in a menu or multi-function switch is what made me go to the Fuji X series. It's easy, convienient so you can work quickly... MIKE :-)
G'Day Mr Browne, nice vid mush. After taking about 250 pics in fully auto mode, am starting to find it's limits. Your demonstration of the effects of manual control has given me the confidence to move forward. Glad to see you are still riding Trumpets after all these years! Take care, Pork
G'day Porks... Cheers mate. Love the Hinkly triples. Got a scruffy 1999 Legend as well, had it from new and got over 110,000 miles on it now. Bloody brilliant bike. Speaking of triples, what happened to the Jota Low Rider?... MIKE
@@MikeBrowne Three cylinders is the perfect amount, and they sound nice! Sold the Jota to Hinch before coming to Aus, still have the chickenfield and the Maico/ Suzuki. Just had the cylinder bored. Need to give it a thrash!!
appreciate the way you talk to us in your video as one photography person to another, some youtube video's i have come across the people have a tendency to talk down to beginners like i am. i know they didn't learn it all in a few months but at one time were beginners just like me, so thank you for your method of teaching
Clear, concise and invaluable in formation Mike. I particularly found number 6 “focal length” of great interest and helped me with my lack of understanding of how creative the compression aspect can be if used correctly.
Great video Mike. Most of what I know now is from watching your videos, and I'm sure many other photographers would say the same. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and wisdom!!
So glad you still manage to come up with fresh new content 11 years after the first upload! Taught me everything I know and heres to the next 11 years and beyond! Many thanks for all your enthusiasm and drive Mike, you have changed the lives of 100's if not 1000's of us. Eternally grateful, Your Loyal Students :)

Thank you Crutch456... MIKE
Thanks Mike ." Most important of photography is YOU" What an encouragement to keep learning.
My pleasure! ... MIKE 🙏🙂
Ahh Mike, this video should be issued with every camera sold! Direct, to the point and easy to understand, trade mark of your videos. A must watch for those stuck to auto, ps love the bike. Cheers to you & the team.
Thank you Jeff... MIKE :-)
How refreshing !!! Your enthusiasm for getting the basics sorted is wonderful.
Thank you Toby.. MIKE
Mike you are one in a million. Best photography teacher I know.
I love the way you speak, and how you explain things. You make it all make sense and therefore easier to remember. :)
Thank you Kelly... MIKE
Hi Mike. I just discovered your videos recently and find them so valuable. Your way of explaining these topics is so accessable. Thanks

Mike, this is one of the most useful video any photographer could watch. It covers the fundamentals very well and useful for people of all levels.
I love what you said Mike at the 7:01 or so mark. What's the point of following the light meter if you're just going to expose for middle grey. Might as well be in auto instead of adjusting the knobs yourself. Also, in all the years that I've been watching you, I don't think I've ever seen you in a tee-shirt! 😀Anyway, glad to see you're still making amazing content.

Thank you Jennifer. Delighted you loved the courses. Yes - having the controls I use all the time as knobs and switches on the camera instead of burried in a menu or multi-function switch is what made me go to the Fuji X series. It's easy, convienient so you can work quickly... MIKE :-)
Always appreciative of your tutorials and your knowledge Mike, many thanks as always for sharing them both with us.
Thank you Stephen... MIKE
G'Day Mr Browne, nice vid mush. After taking about 250 pics in fully auto mode, am starting to find it's limits. Your demonstration of the effects of manual control has given me the confidence to move forward. Glad to see you are still riding Trumpets after all these years! Take care, Pork
G'day Porks... Cheers mate. Love the Hinkly triples. Got a scruffy 1999 Legend as well, had it from new and got over 110,000 miles on it now. Bloody brilliant bike. Speaking of triples, what happened to the Jota Low Rider?... MIKE
@@MikeBrowne Three cylinders is the perfect amount, and they sound nice! Sold the Jota to Hinch before coming to Aus, still have the chickenfield and the Maico/ Suzuki. Just had the cylinder bored. Need to give it a thrash!!
Great video Mike delivered at the right level for beginner photographers like myself. Thanks.
appreciate the way you talk to us in your video as one photography person to another, some youtube video's i have come across the people have a tendency to talk down to beginners like i am. i know they didn't learn it all in a few months but at one time were beginners just like me, so thank you for your method of teaching
Thanks Jan. Yep - we all had to begin somewhere... MIKE :-)
Brilliant as always Mike! :)
Thanks David... MIKE
Awesome vid Mike. Looking forward to more!
It's been a while, Mr. Browne, since you produced such a fine video!
Thanks Ra... MIKE 🙂🙏
Yet another great informative video, all the important areas covered in less than 20 minutes. Thank you Mike
Absolutely cracking video. Cheers for that.
Ps. love the T'Bird. I've got a 2014 1700cc version.
Clear, concise and invaluable in formation Mike. I particularly found number 6 “focal length” of great interest and helped me with my lack of understanding of how creative the compression aspect can be if used correctly.
Great video Mike. Most of what I know now is from watching your videos, and I'm sure many other photographers would say the same. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and wisdom!!
Thank you Tim... MIKE
