I shoot 99% of time in Aperture priority, with Sony with ISO Auto - but sometimes it bumps it too high so I adjust manually, but one creative thing I'll try for sure is exposing for highlights - the setting you told in the video. Also, I find wide focus mode with eye/face AF very good, I shoot only this way. Until now, at least.
I just preset it depending on my surrounding. Usually it’s so much light outside that I don’t need to use anything more than 200-400 iso. Even if it underexposes just a tad bit it’s usually easily fixable
@@enqine2321 Hey! No one responded so I hope you kinda figured this out. But if not, they not have their place. But what he’s taking about is for your quick shot setup. Aperture will almost always affect your image because of depth of field. For shutter speed you’ll only have an effect if it’s low enough to blur motion (yours from shaking the camera or the subjects) l. For most photos, especially if you’re trying to catch a photo quickly, you want no motion blur. Also if you do want motion blur for artistic reasons, you’re going to be having to plan and compose the photo more anyways.
I watched this a week after getting my A7IV. loved it! It was great advise after being out of the game for a good part of 9 years. 6 months later, I'm back to see what I'm doing right and wrong and feel like I am on a great path thanks to you! Thank you so much for this wonderful advise! You are making wonderful contributions to the photography community!
On older cameras with a slower shutter rate/fps single shot can help you train and catch the exact moment of action you want; if you have a good trigger finger! I always find on my canon 70d that I end up missing the exact point of action and getting shots, either side of it - where I started shooting prior to the moment and then trusted the camera to capture right moment.. especially when using live view because youre shooting blind after you open the shutter
Not in this video but you said just dial setting to zero on the meter or +/- for proper exposure. I just dial back my highlight warning and watch the histogram. Too w Ap. in low light I need to go to M as SS drops too much. Plenty of light Ap is fine. Just found your channel. Too truly appreciate your skill set and sharing. I have an old Sony w/o some of the new whistle but fine for my budget. A7r3 w 3 basic lens, 24-105, 70-200 F4 and a Sigma 16-28 F2.8. Wish this one was a 35 vs 28.... Thanks
Love from Indonesia😍😍, I don't have a camera but I really want to learn first to be a beginner, and thank you for the tips it's very interesting Thank you very much
I LOVE this channel! TONS of good info! Your positive energy is infectious & makes me want to hit the streets to shoot everytime I watch a vid! Thank you so much Pierre
Thank you so much for this! I just got my first autofocus lens and the backbutton focus + DMF is great! Wish my a7 had settings for min and max shutter speed. Such a simple but powerfull feature =O
Hello everyone! Great video !'m not sure if I should by a CANON M100, 600D, 700D or 1300d. Can YOU HELP ME PLEASE? Btw I was looking for the best budget camera for day and night photografy
Didn't know about the shutter speed limit you cant se on the camera when in Aperture mode, but although I activated it on 250, if I'm pointing to a darker spot, it still goes under 250. What did I missed guys ?
Did you set a max ISO limit too? First, check if it’s on auto. If it is, maybe your camera is trying not to surpass either your max iso or shutter speed, but the exposure can’t get right without breaking one of those “rules.” Maybe it’s just valuing the iso over the shutter speed? I know it’s 11 months later so if you found a fix, I’d love if you’d leave a reply for people in the future!

Thanks so much for all those great video! I just bought a sony a7 2 with a 85 mm 1.8, because I was low budget... I m so happy, BUT I don't have minimum shutter speed on this camera 😭... When I look yours video, I m wondering if I didn't made a mistake with this camera then!!?
Great work as always! Thank you! One question for the silhouette photos: Do you use ND filters or anything since you are aiming in the direction of the sun?
I love Av but sometimes the auto iso gets all over the place , pretty annoying if you have to shoot quick not realizing the setting are now f*cked up 😝. I think i will keep shooting Av but in pretty good situation only . I think Manual is the way to go if you have a camera that is easy to use , set & if you're not in rush obviously

Doesn't really matter if you shooting in manual white balance especially when it comes to Sony color reproduction. You can shoot in kelvin 3200-10000K and the color still wont match what you see unless you create profile with things such as xrite passport where you really calibrate your camera to the hues of the scene. This manual white balance is same as trying calibrate your monitor using your eyes instead of calibration device... Once you in Raw it really doesn't matter unless you create color profile used later in captureOne, LR, cameraRaw, etc 😉
Can you give me the name of the lens you used in this video. I am a big fan of you, I’m from Viet Nam. If you have a chance, you should come to Vietnam because Vietnam has a lot of beautiful natural scenes such as large caves, rivers.
@@lefantome2568 all around woud be good I'm shooting sports, close ups, landscapes, street, portrait and more! I would like to make it easier for me to shoot bc my Nikon need sooo long to focus and most of the time it didn't focused the right subject/spot etc. :)
@@daandy952 if you dont like Canon or Nikon, you can go for Sony A7 3... or if you have the budget for A1 or A7 S serie but the latest one... i am Canon shooter so don't know much about sony since i don't do any research about them. What i am saying is just based on some reviews i have seen. But Sony lenses and damn expensive...unless you wan to pair your camera with Canon lens, so required adapter etc. And with adapter, you wont ve getting the full output from both combo. But it is everyone. taste
The A7 2 seems to have the weakest battery in the serie people use to say... if you don't mind getting few extra batteries, you can go for it... Sony cameras have one of the best ISO control. You will be killing it for night photos...
Focusing by half pressing the shutter button is a brilliant engineering invention that I would not pass onto. Besides being quicker than back button focusing, it also allows you to operate the camera one handedly much easier and more secure. Also it is much easier to shoot at the ground level by using your thumb to click the shutter button. Imo it is much better to set the back button to lock the focus... which you will barely use if you learn to keep the focusing point on your subject instead of recomposing. Recomposing is a skill from the past when we used to have only that many focusing points and all cluttered at the center...

I tend to shoot Aperture priority with manual iso but I guess that’s just a habit I have from shooting on an old Nikon where I had to go manual iso
yes relatable ☺️

Your stuff is amazing as always, you always inspire me. Great vid. You've given me a lot of inspiration to get out there it do it comfortable or not.
Great video! Just noticed you have 2 PD Capture Clips?
Highlight metering is something I never thought about before 👊🏽.
I never thought about metering for highlights! Great tips! Im using that for sure!
Meter mode for low light. Stick to multi for large area or center on subject?
Great advice for a new learner, thanks. Nice to find you here on youtube.
Hey Pierre, Was curious on what your camera setup was for recording videos just like these!
Fantastic short tutorial! How do you set focus in landscape photography with single point?
Thank you for the precious advices
Nice tips, I got my new a 6400, how should I set my minimum shutter speed in aperture priority mode..?
Excellent advice, thank you. The BEST channel!
Always love hearing your insight bro! Thank you for sharing your settings and how you work with them! Super helpful 💯✔️🔥
Do you shoot uncompressed, lossless compressed, or compressed RAW

You're video is always cool🤙
Thank you Pierre, 😊 i miss the that ISO A SS mode! Now i know what to do !😅 After 3 years of shooting with the alpha 7iii…!🙈
Do you know what the highlights setting would be on Canon? Or what it would look like? Or is it the same?
Dope stuff. Learned something new. Gotta give the highlight metering a try :)
Hey, how's it going? Are you planning on attending Open House Chicago next month?
Can you make a complete video on how to shoot manual?
Very nice photo 👍📸📷📷

hello guys but why if I put a minimum shutter speed does the camera go below this? Can anyone explain me this?
Helpful af
I have a Sony Xperia 1 iii phone and the camera is amazing
When i am shooting portrait I use aperture priority , when shooting street i use Shutter priority , Iso auto

With canon. I usually keep the white balance in sunny because auto white balance usually keeps making my photos more warm and orange
Love from India sir ♥️ wanna learn many from you.
Wow I learned a lot from this!
Hello,
how I can change minimum shatter speed in A mode? Sony A9
nice tuto
I don’t have metering highlight in the a7ii please someone tell me how
HI! can you do a video on the iPhone 13 pro max?
It's not about the settings and gear but about the mood, emotion, story etc
Looking for these settings on my borrowed Canon 40D...damn! :D

no just shoot in manual or shutter priority.
There should be an option in the menu settings to set the minimum shutter speed. First menu tab 5
@@saikunger5378 no, there is no minium shutter option on the A7ii.

Great work as always! Thank you!
One question for the silhouette photos: Do you use ND filters or anything since you are aiming in the direction of the sun?
You could use an ND if you wanted a shallower DOF, or just use a smaller aperture and a high shutter speed.
So good

“I don’t ask u anything, just if u want give my GoProvids a chance and you’ll see...”
Are there situations where you would not use BBF?
No, it's so much better than shutter focus. You'll get used to it. Give it a try!!
Can you do a more thorough video on back button focus? I always have issue with that setting especially on a Sony
i shoot single most of the time but fast action slow mode otherwise its to many pictures
never understood the need to shoot any other mode except manual, why would you limit your self in that way ?
Highlights is the only way... 👌🏼
Big fan
I can't find setting for minimum shutter speed for canon
