    Great video once again, Sergey.
    I took a life lesson from this session. Keep the people I want in life, directly infront of me, parallel to myself and focus just on them. Everyone else, do not require my focus lol

    Great info! I’ve learned this through failing the hard way a number of times. Now I do this, but I also shoot once around F4-5.6, raise iso to accommodate, switch to manual focus, ask everyone to move and shoot the background at F1.2 so I can merge if necessary

    Great video, but do you always shoot family portraits at 1.2? Feels a bit more safe to stop down a little bit in case someone starts leaning a bit forward during the shoot for example?

  • @dccd673
    @dccd673 Год назад +1

    I didn’t know that people would need to be parallel to the lens in order to be in focus at the same time. This is great information to gain. I am a visual learner so I understand without having questions 😂

      made standing people get close as possible and lean forward.... make little bigger distance between you and group. or go for little higher f-stop such as 1.4, 1.8 or 2.0
