  • Taking sharp macro photos out in the field can be a real challenge sometimes. The shallow depth of field in macro photography and other elements such as the wind, moving subjects, and your camera settings can be a lot to deal with especially for beginners. In this video, I am going to talk about possible reasons why your photos are not sharp and offer solutions for each problem.
    1:01 - 2:01 wrong gear
    2:13 - 3:04 shallow DOF
    3:15 - 4:05 lens diffraction
    4:18 - 5:46 motion blur
    5:59 - 7:00 no diffuser
    7:09 - 7:44 shooting in direct sunlight
    7:53 - 8:10 bonus tip

    Just one more thing I would add and that is it's good to have image stabilisation in the lens or camera for when you just can't get fast enough shutter speeds with narrow aperture in average light. Perfectly thorough otherwise though.

    Very well explained, nice music (though none is needed). I'm glad that you have a passion for photography.
    I'm very much enjoying using a Tokina atx-i 100mm F2.8 macro lens, which I've attached to my lightest weight Canon camera, the Rebel T-3, instead of the heavier 7D Mark II. Sometings, I'll add extension tubes, depending on my needs.

      Now I'm thinking that your attraction is more to the infinite variety of insects, their anatomy and coloration, and you use photography as a tool to "capture" them, would that be correct?@@Xx7trey

    Great video one tip I can add is wear knee pads takes away the stress and strain and pain of kneeling down if your on hard ground .

    • @Xx7trey
      @Xx7trey  11 месяцев назад

      Oh yeah for sure. I should do the same

    excellent video - my issue with focus stacking is that without a tripod there is always camera movement and i end up with a poor stack

    EXCELLENT photos! EXCELLENT content! I learned a great deal. I look forward to watching more of your videos (and photos). I'm curious: why is "trey" in your RUclips name? Is it your real name/nickname? I ask because I've only met 7 folk named Trey in my lifetime. We've officially not met, but if you are named trey, you are number 8.
    Cheers! Trey Demmond (mine is a birth-given nickname; I rarely can hear my real name; I finally made it my professional name).

    So myny pics for such a narrow dof. Are you using the smallest interval whrn focus bracketing or are you really always shooting those pictures manually (and rock back and forth with your camera) ?

    • @Xx7trey
      @Xx7trey  6 месяцев назад +1

      With my old nikon camera, all my focus stacks were manual since that camera didn’t have focus bracketing. With my Olympus, majority of my stacks I will use focus bracketing

    When the subject is underexposed, it does not look sharp enough.
    This is one of the reasons as well.

    • @Xx7trey
      @Xx7trey  11 месяцев назад

      You’re right. I should’ve brought that up in this video
