    I've been using Av since it was the only automatic setting possible for film Nikons like the F3 and FE2, and was the A setting. Canon's only automatic setting on their AE-1 cameras was Tv, shutter speed priority, but marked A, just like Nikon. Anyway I'd get some abuse from manually shooting photographers (and I still do). My thought was that A (Av) was faster to adjust to changing light than I was. I frequently used Av for outside sports, always paid attention to the shutter speed, and subsequently had no problems. The solution to working dumb seems to me to be easily fixed by working smart.
    When digital raised its ugly head I continued to use Av along with M. On my professional Canon 1D cameras I modified the control setting so only Av and M were available. I could get from Av to M without having to go by settings I never used. I changed that in the last year to now include B. I NEVER use Tv or auto ISO. My reasoning is that when aperture changes, the depth of field changes and so the image changes. And it changes without my supervision. With Av - and as long as I don't get stupid and let the shutter speed get too low - the difference between 1/1000 and 1/2000 is negligible. I didn't want to use variable ISO as that would mean that I had to separate images based on ISO so that the right noise reduction for the specific ISO was used. Although noise suppression is a lot better now with both cameras and post production apps, it wasn't then. More to the point I didn't have post production time when my stuff was needed for deadline.

    • @PhotoKitchen425
      @PhotoKitchen425  Год назад +1

      Great question, and I only have an answer in theory. I will say you would need a trigger on camera that work with TTL. But, you are still going to get the camera to meter what it see "pre-flash", so it might give radically different results. I will try this next time I am out, but since I am using a different system, I don't know if I will have a definitive answer.

    • @PhotoKitchen425
      @PhotoKitchen425  Год назад +3

      Great question Scott, and I am going to come off as a total snob when I say that, "I only shoot Sony lenses". So I am not really sure. I would say yes, since focal length and shutter speed at all being transmitted to the camera. The easiest way to tell is to attach you Tamron and set it up as directed in the video. If you zoom in or out, or the lighting amount changes, you should see the shutter speed change in this mode as your change the focal length, and it should never drop under a certain amount, say 1/125th if you are zoomed in at 85mm and the setting is at "Faster".

    • @PhotoKitchen425

      The firs question is, what is your MAX ISO setting when you are in Auto ISO? That might be too low. The other thing it could be is that you are just shooting in very dark situations, and the camera is just trying to make a picture. 1/250th is a pretty fast shutter speed, so you will need a lot of ISO or a low aperture to make that happen in darker conditions.

    • @PhotoKitchen425
      @PhotoKitchen425  Год назад +1

      The shutter speed will change, like it normally would in Aperture Priority Mode, but what Minimum Shutter Speed does is not allow the shutter speed to drop past a certain point, based on the lens you are using. So if you are shooting on a 50mm lens, and set it to Fast, the Shutter Speed will probably not drop bellow 1/60th of a second. It will be different for every lens, and the setting you make, Slow, Fast, etc.

      @@PhotoKitchen425 I agree with you 100 % manual is the best way if you are shooting indoor with low ambient light with a flash. Although shooting outdoors I find that having a high ish iso (400 automatic minimum range)keep the shutter speed high enough so no blurry photo…if I use a flash outdoor now I tent to have it hss instead of “full flash” on aperture priority And while doing all of this at the same time trying to keep an eye on the histogram…🤣👍 plus interacting with subject..no wonder we are tired at the end

      ​​@@PhotoKitchen425On my Nikons AutoISO On/Off is quickly available: Press & hold the ISO button on the back of the camera & rotate the rear Command dial. One detent toggles 'Auto' ISO on to off & vice versa.
      We're 'blessed' with so many options on digital cams. Sorting them out & setting up your gear for YOUR uses can be challenging.

      Let me know, I am curious as well. Sony seems to be the only company that alters the minimum shutter speed when changing lenses that I have found so far.
