This video was a revelation to me. I too was stuck in the mode of using manual settings and often ended up stressing myself out over constantly changing scenarios during events. Thanks for this video which covered the essentials of Sony camera modes and how to leverage them for personal shoots. Subscribed to you for future similar content. You have been the very few RUclipsrs who provides realistic solutions for event/wedding shooters. Thank you🙏
Thank you for being bold about not shooting in manual. I have seen on multiple occasions the condescension aimed at those who don't shoot in Manual. Your pictures are AMAZING.
I got to put this to the test at a wedding I did earlier today! This 100% made the process better! My second photographer is a novice, and rarely shoots manual and she knocked it out of the park and felt it was a easy method! Glad I came across this video!
Thank you! I thought there was something wrong with me for thinking it was crazy to have to change constantly and didn't understand how it was humanly possible to do so.
The last time I shot in manual mode was when I was using film in the studio in my product photography career. Today, I use Program mode almost exclusively. I can shift the Program mode with just the thumb control wheel to change shutter or aperture values. I can also shift exposure with front control wheel. I do have full control in Program mode on my camera.
Hey Jiggie, I hear you on this but why not shoot in manual with auto ISO. The result is the same in that your images are well exposed and you can still use the exposure compensation if you want to under expose or over expose? The benefit of this is that you choose the aperture and or shutter speed without having to switch priority modes and let the ISO take care of itself. Speed is of the essences in wedding photography and having to remember which priority mode you are in makes no sense to me. Likewise people who shoot in total manual when the you have to quickly change between portraits and candid moments, in light and shade, still subjects or moving subjects will miss shots fiddling with their camera balancing the exposure triangle over a photographer who can get to their setting much quicker. So for me, I have all the control I need with two dials, one finger for shutter speed and a thumb for aperture.
I have been stuck in the manual mode all along and that is what I was advised before, in my mind, I can still hear the voice of my friend shouting, use MANUAL MODE ALL THE TIME. Thank you for this video.
Jiggie, it is not good to shoot aperture priority with the flash, ttl is not consistently when you zoom out and zoom it from focal lenght Correct if i am wrong?
Thank you so VERY MUCH! I've been shooting outdoor portraits for years and want to do more weddings. This has helped me immensely! You explain it soo well! I am switching to aperture priority for most things!
Hi Jiggie! Great video. I used to shoot in A-priority mode but found that I hated it when it came down to editing photos when the I would be off by 1/3 of a stop from one photo to the next on portraits shoots. Manual became a solution to batch editing inconsistencies and I find it useful for this purposes. However, I find myself having to adjust on the fly for wedding ceremonies and it becomes a pain to constantly be adjusting. I think I will try A-priority mode more often for certain situations after watching your video. Thank you for opening my eyes to the point that other pros are using this and it works well for them.
I love aperture priority. Although I really consider it aperture/iso priority. I try to always maintain control of two aspects of the exposure triangle. AP has made shooting faster and more fun. But for me the biggest advantage, I am now thinking about light and composition and not fiddling with controls.
Thankyou po sir, ngayon ko lang po nalaman ang advantage neto, portrait and cosplay photographer po ako, mas efficient po and mas makakafocus po kung paano icocompose yung shot, salamat po sa tutorials
Excellent tutorial Jiggie. I tried this method on my canon 6D. Aperture & TV (Speed) mode works well as you said in bright light. I obtained my final results much faster. The downside is in low light with my flash (Canon 600EXII-RT). The camera speed can go below 1/60 and my ISO is automatically 400. The flash overrides my min speed of 1/60 and auto ISO in both modes. Nothing perfect!
One of the first things I learned in photography is that auto was not just something that only amateurs use. I noticed is that despite the fact that a professional photographer was working in perhaps aperture priority they were still quite aware of what their three settings should be. They were working outside of manual mode not to allow the camera to do the thinking but rather to increase the speed of resetting exposures from one capture to the next.
Wow, all these hard photographers call me an amateur shooting in AV/TV mode on canon. I am following your advice it's proven in your results !!! excellent thank you so much..
@@JiggieAlejandrino man I tried today and my pictures sucked. I guess I need to re-watch your videos again. Can you get those shots on a DSLR vs Mirrorless? do I have to buy a Mirrorless camera now. ;-)
Great video, I am only just starting out at photography & use a SONY Next 5 R. which today will be seen as old, but i think once i learn some of the basics of photography it will still give me resonable results, I do like the idea of aperture priority for most of the pictures & will use this for the foreseable future
this is good learning,, im wedding photographer too,, when do documentation sometimes i just focusing to setting the camera so im not consetrate to capturing moment need to learn use A or S mode for this
As usual fantastic advice I tried shooting manual all the time out side and it was a pain. In a studio as you say it’s ok to use but in a fast moving light environment a more automatic solution makes much more sense. Thanks
Jiggie your tutorials are gold! I will try using A mode more in the future. Its just makes so much more sense. My wife always complains that I take too much time to adjust the camera (when I am in M mode)
@@JiggieAlejandrino yesterday i shot with Aperture Priority mode the whole time and it was amazingly easy. no worries abt the exposure anymore. just focus on the subject. super!
Av mode is NOT for low light condition. Because when taking photo with model, there is 2 exposure: for ambient light and for model. For model , lighting depends mostly on FLASH, especially on the power of flash to make skin of model pretty and genuine.
I’ve learned so much from your videos. But this right here is gold! I think you just helped tremendously! Thank you 🙏 From the bottom of my heart. So glad I watched this!!
Thanks I've got your channel Yes i am not professional photographer and i do shoots photos that always use manual mode and to that experience i found it to my self to familiarise to that mode. I will tell that i really need someone can explain that why not using other dial mode, and also for me i like that Auto mode and i confuse maybe i do wrong way so i am so appreciate that your good explaination. now i learn a lot. Well actually i use or i use it to use manual mode to my studio and yes all model light settings is already set one setting. Now i am doing Outdoor shooting it really help this channel.
Sony adv. tech feature Auto minimum shutter speed settings [1/30] is the key... I tried to adjust all my settings [convert your instruction to CANON system for AV] N/A. Am Using ol'fashioned Canon 7D system... I did get some of the settings... Thanks Jiggy!!!
Súper vídeo thanks for sharing , I only have i question if you shooting in aperture priority the flash will be in MANUAL mode always ? Thanks for the answer !!
Thank you. I'm using the Sony a6000 and I have some what different menu, however after watching your video and playing with my camera I was able to recreate some of the adjustments you talk about.
Thanks, you're a life saver! I wanted to take advantage of the minimal bokah you get from the smaller sensor on the a6660 and was finding the shutter speed hovering as low as 1/25th and wasn't going to be happy with the motion blur so those settings you showed are a game changer.
Good info, I do like manual in studio, I even use P because my camera is good, A during sunsets, T during sports. Keep up the good work and I hope Sony stay's in the camera business. If it is not profitable for them I will understand. Loosing feature set on new camera's is a sign for Sony users ! If "sensor size" is so important, why is Cell Phone's taking over the market, including video ?
Thanks for going over why you don’t shoot manual. I learned back in the days of film when manual was all you had. My concerns with shooting in auto is that the camera may not set it correctly, especially when shooting with a bright background (like snow). I found it very interesting (and helpful) the way you shoot in auto modes. One thing I was not aware of is the ability to set limits (such as minimum shutter speed) on the camera. For the way you shoot I can see where the auto can be more of an advantage for you. Thanks for sharing your process for shooting in the auto.
When i am on the streets shooting documentary photography, i often use aperture priority simply because light changes a lot on this situation. Manual mode is only great in a controlled environment and doing creative shooting.
I shot manual mode and my priority s sharpness and e posture. I want my ISO to be the lowest possible and my subject to be a n focus as I do street photography. I don’t use aperture priority because I curd care less about depth of field over sharpness. With AP mode you might not freeze action.
Sir jiggie thanks for this awesome tutorial. I will be adopting this setting. My main question and worry is what if you are a TTL flash shooter. Will this affect the power output or the style ?
great explanation. I just have one more question. why wouldn't you set the ISO to its lowest (in your case 50)? Doesn't this also reduce the amount of noise? 1:38
Thanks Jiggie. Makes perfect sense. It really is a misconception that professionals shoot in M all the time. You simply don't have the time to fiddle with the setting as a portrait and wedding photographer. A quick hiccup I noticed at 4:18 ... you must have meant auto-ISO instead of auto aperture (when in Aperture mode your ISO is always in auto)
@@JiggieAlejandrino haha, youre right, my bad. I paused right after 4:18 to write my comment. Then a few moments later you inserted the correction. Lesson learned
Dang.. im quite the opposite.. i been shooting for years and now. even more than before, im always on manual mode.. im so used to using my camera that i dont even think about it when needing to change ISO, shutter speed or aperture.. literally in a split second.. if i take a shot and i see something i dont like with the exposure.. my brain just knows what values need changing and do it without having to stop and think about it.. i just do it.. lol but i guess that comes from actually shooting manual mode all the time.. i guess this is maybe because im still using DSLR.. and Nikon's shortcuts are super easy to use and modify without having to dive on menus and stuff like that..
Only use M mode for prewedding shooting. Actual day event Auto mode is the best but flash light need to be at right power. Otherwise high noise due to high ISO at low light condition.
I love watching your tutorials Jiggie, simplicity explains. Well done! One question for you: how do you shoot portraits with 70-200 lens? Once you in 2.8f aperture priority, you can't control the shutter speed. How do you overcome it? thanks Eli
Thank you for this excellent video. On my A7iii, My viewfinder was not changing to show the effect of the exposure compensation. If this is happening to you go to Menu 2 page 6/9 (Display/Auto Review 1) and change the Live View Display to setting effect always on. Now I everything is good. My brain can take in the information in the way your are giving it. Again, thank you.
Thank you for your video tutorial. I shoot in manual mode with auto iso outdoor and indoor. (Because I found that in the past the camera priority iso over shutter speed doesn’t give me enough speed to freeze people/kids movements) What is your views on it in comparison of aperture priority with auto iso? (I have subscribed by the way)
@@JiggieAlejandrino Sony user po kayo as i have noticed. Im asking if Sony A6000 is still good to buy this 2021? im planning to buy one. tnx in advance.
Thanks Jiggy. This is probably the best explanation of Auto ISO I've come across. I have a couple of questions about this: How does the camera choose what is the optimal ISO setting? Does it rely on the metering of the scene and then the ISO is applied? Ideally it should choose the lowest possible ISO (within the range that you set) to reduce the amount of noise di ba? Also, I guess that Auto ISO would really have no effect in Manual Mode / Shutter priority mode since you will be the one changing the shutter settings
As to point question #1 yes that’s correct, for #2 actually some people do that, they set their camera to M so that they have control of SS and AP, and just let the camera determine the ISO to get the proper exposure
About the anecdote of someone using manual mode with auto ISO max of 25,600 that was mentioned in this video at around 7:45 and forgetting about it (implying that thereby the results were negatively affected), couldn't they notice the consequence of this high ISO (on the picture quality) in either their view finder or their LCD screen before taking the picture?
How annoying is it to find out that my a6100 doesn't have the ISO AUTO Min Shutter Speed option. I can select the min/max ISO but looks like the shutter cannot be also set at a min. BUMMER! awesome video though - thanks!
Funny, I don't shoot in anything but M. I have two different M settings assigned for CN1 and CN2 (Canon 6D). One is set for indoors and one is set for outdoor. I have the ISO on auto for each setting
@@JiggieAlejandrino Fully agree! But you are not misguiding. These toxic people are more in the western hemisphere. Photographers here are greedy people.
Thanks for this video tutorial now i finally decided to use aperture priority mode, you are 100% correct it waste to much time for manual mode coz everytime you move your camera exposure change so constantly changing your settins, i’m just curious on my a1 and a9ii the shutter speed it doesnt change still at 1/30 but my a7iii it constanly changing when i focus something any suggestion?
Hmmm, maybe it is because i am a video shooter mostly. I adjust apeture and ISO mostly. I tend to work with higher ISO. So like and are comfortable with Manual.
Hi I’m a new and photography enthusiast and just stumbled on your channel and love this tutorial, but I was wondering if this same process works on canon because that’s my first camera?
As Jiggie stated the principles are the same the one difference you'll find in the consumer grade Canons is that you will be able to set a max limit for the ISO but not the set a minimum ISO

It’s really just about maximizing each mode :)
Remember you have Exposure Compensation to override what the camera thinks is the correct exposure to make your pictures brighter or darker :)
The most enlightening tips I have seen. Thanks.

Great video. I find I’m always fiddling with controls, but I like the shallow dof and fast shutter (families and kids)
I agree. More time focusing on the framing and actually taking the picture than fiddling around.
For me I like aperture mode because I can use exposure compression. I love my Nikon P950 camera. ❤❤❤
If I'd shoot in manual mode at a wedding, 90% of my pics would be over-or underexposed. Your camera is right most of the time.

About the anecdote of someone using manual mode with auto ISO max of 25,600 that was mentioned in this video at around 7:45 and forgetting about it (implying that thereby the results were negatively affected), couldn't they notice the consequence of this high ISO (on the picture quality) in either their view finder or their LCD screen before taking the picture?
Hi Jiggie, please can you show me the setting you used for creative style in your sony.
Thank you sir jiggie for the new insightful video. 👌
Glad you enjoyed it
Wonderful, informative video. When the ISO is high it affects how much grain you get in the photos. How do you balance the grain?
Nail the exposure.
Definitely Gonna Try this, great video as always
Thank you
How annoying is it to find out that my a6100 doesn't have the ISO AUTO Min Shutter Speed option. I can select the min/max ISO but looks like the shutter cannot be also set at a min. BUMMER! awesome video though - thanks!
Funny, I don't shoot in anything but M. I have two different M settings assigned for CN1 and CN2 (Canon 6D). One is set for indoors and one is set for outdoor. I have the ISO on auto for each setting
Thank you very much.
You are the best.
My a7riv don't have that option Auto iso ss.
What can I do?
Thank you very much.
Great video. But how do you setting your metering mode ? Multi or center or spot ?
Because I find it really hard to shoot in sunset.
Thanks jiggie! Love your quality contents! (As always)
Glad you think so
Perfect advice.
We have true and toxic professional, later misguiding others.
Just don’t forget, do what works for you no matter what other people, including myself say :)
@@JiggieAlejandrino Fully agree! But you are not misguiding. These toxic people are more in the western hemisphere.
Photographers here are greedy people.
Wow…thanks for this informative video.
Can i apply this tip sa a6600 po?wala po kasing dedicated dial pra ma adjust yung comp.
You can assign a dial for it
Thanks for this video tutorial now i finally decided to use aperture priority mode, you are 100% correct it waste to much time for manual mode coz everytime you move your camera exposure change so constantly changing your settins, i’m just curious on my a1 and a9ii the shutter speed it doesnt change still at 1/30 but my a7iii it constanly changing when i focus something any suggestion?
Really it's helpe me thank you so much 🥰🥰keep make doing more camera settings knowledge videos ❤️👈
🙏🙏🙏
I remember trying to shoot in Aperture Priority mode on a birthday party shoot, grabe namiss ko yun! hahaha
Why’d you stop then? :)
Force of habit? Nasanay sa Manual? 😅 Must try again on a shoot 😁😁😁
Hmmm, maybe it is because i am a video shooter mostly. I adjust apeture and ISO mostly. I tend to work with higher ISO. So like and are comfortable with Manual.
This are very useful informations and very logical. Thanks.
Thank you :)
Hi I’m a new and photography enthusiast and just stumbled on your channel and love this tutorial, but I was wondering if this same process works on canon because that’s my first camera?
Principles should be the same :)
As Jiggie stated the principles are the same the one difference you'll find in the consumer grade Canons is that you will be able to set a max limit for the ISO but not the set a minimum ISO
