    To clarify what I meant for under exposing , I would only underexpose to preserve my highlights, typically works best for outdoor lighting due to the sun being a extremely bright light source, if you have even lighting, you wouldn’t need to underexpose.

      Captain Henbu - Thank you for taking the time to share your expertise and experience. I too have long been an advocate of 2 under, sometimes more (they're almost free, shooting a few extra never hurts). I once took a shot of some dense trees and forest in which I was immersed. This was in the north Georgia mountains, and some of the leaves, mountain laurel I think, were somewhat glossy and reflective. It was the end of the day, and the sun had set over the mountains, and the prevailing light came entirely from the sky above, which was deep azure and free of clouds. When I developed these in Bridge, I was amazed to see what the naked eye could not, that these reflections off of these glossy leaves was a beautiful blue! Of course, but that would have been entirely lost shooting at 0 EV instead of -2.0 or lower. Keep up the outstanding work in 2020 and best wishes! Stuckey in Atlanta

    Thanks for this one man. I think the hardest part for me is shooting to edit. I haven’t really found my style yet. I mostly edit to the way I remember the moment. Then stylize based one the mood. I’m also going to think more about my composition to push my photography over the edge. Thanks again.

    Definitely switching between photography and videography makes everything much more exciting. Sometimes when you are at a location it soots one better than the other. And being able to switch is what makes it so much more fun. Shoot with underexposure changed my photography so much! I love to play with different angels. Thank you for this insightful video.

    Shoot to edit
    Shot what's not there but shoot what could be there...
    That opened my mind honestly.. Cause I see what I want but it doesn't come out the way I expected.
    So that's true.. Shot the set up but remember the lay up for the edit is where it's at...
    Great advice

  • @canturgan
    @canturgan 5 лет назад +51

    I don't agree with your exposure technique, underexposure causes noise. You should be aiming for correct exposure by controlling the highlights within the frame, like you used to do with transparency film. There are sweet spots on some digital cameras, around 160, 320, 640,1250 ISO that are not interpolated by the processor. Use these speeds for reduced noise.

There’s lots of RUclips videos on it testing photo and video too!

      @bfs5113 4 года назад +1

      IMO, nobody can tell you the best camera to start out with, since it is all money talk. If you intend to go forward with photography, a feature packed camera offers you immediate access to learn how to use many of the more advance features, instead of waiting for an upgrade. Once you have used a capable camera, such as the flagship model, then you can learn and even hang out the shingle to do business with the same camera, later on. Also, it makes most of the items on the other's wish list just one's past experience. So, why wasting time thinking about the next camera, but instead to concentrate on learning the craft. For instance, why upgrading to FF when it was what the photographer started out with, LOL. Of course, one doesn't need a better camera to capture a masterpiece. But how many photographers are fully capable without some assistance from their cameras and truly artistic? Not good at focusing? Buy a camera with alien eyes-tracking even in the dark. Otherwise, most people with a smartphone can deliver better images than Master Photographer, Fan Ho, who used a TLR. Compare Fan Ho's work with some of today's photographers and see what is the difference between WOW and nice technically. It isn't just about composition or storytelling, but able to turn artistic visualization into a photographic image, using the various composition & darkroom/pp tricks to package it to knock viewers off their feet.
