Definitely one of your mot helpful videos to date. I also liked the fact you covered four different manufacturers showing the actual screen pages. Very slick!
In my street photography I ALWAYS turn off all bleeps including shutter sound. I agree with R C, (a few comments below) on this one... Thanks Chelsea for talking about this. I really appreciate your videos.
Thanks guys for sharing your experience with great comments.....As a hobbyist I need this type of video as a lot of videos are directed at professionals....the basics are so important when learning something new.... cheers from Australia 😀
On my canon camera I always set up a custom menu with the most used functions. That way you don't have to dive into every menu branch to change settings you use often.
Yes on my Canon and Panasonic cameras I set up 2 or 3 "My Menu" pages where I can store different options e.g. option to switch on HDR shooting. On the Canon you can rename the menu pages e.g. Focus options.
I wish there was a way to visually highlight all settings that have been changed. I'm looking through hundreds of settings and I don't remember every setting I modified and there's no way to ever see again what was modified. That's how settings get lost in the menu system and in our minds. There could be an option "Highlight modified settings" that would just draw some yellow or pink indicator behind modified settings.
That’s very true! I usually set up a my menu, and everything I change I also add to the my menu (if available). That’s a workaround, and might get in the way using my menu only for the most used settings. To prevent this I put the most used items first and the least used last. Hope that helps!
Absolutely! Or, just permanently highlighlight the default settings so we can tell at a glance that the setting was changed. People always ask what custom settings I have made, and with the exception of a few big ones, I can't remember. They get changed due to experimentation.
I watch your videos for the awesome video quality (WAY better than most on RUclips), excellently structured content, and your easygoing manner. I don't expect to agree with everything you say, but it doesn't matter. I've watched videos you two have produced that have zero bearing on anything that interests me because I knew there would be something fun included. Your effort is appreciated.
Synchronising clocks when using two cameras for the same shoot is a good one. It can be done afterwards but it's annoying and far better to get right before you start shooting. I've also found the feature on newer Sony cameras that allow you to save and load the entire settings of the camera to an SD card to be very useful.
10:31 Thank you for explaining back-button auto focus so clearly. I’ve heard the phrase numerous times but never understood exactly how it works or what it does until this video!
And, there are different ways to set it up. I prefer to mostly use the standard method of AF, but there are times I want to link the focus- so i have the button on the back set to turn OFF the AF, so I can disable AF by holding the button down ... really handy during reframing of a shot!
There are cameras where back button auto focus is basically ruined (deliberately?) by the manufacturer. Nikon d3100 doesn't release shutter if you back button focus and then recompose if on recompose the selected focus point is not in focus. So the panorama technique described is not possible. Not sure how many Nikon cameras are ruined like this, but I personally will never buy another one to find out.
Maybe it’s different for studio shootings (I don’t know, I’m just an amateur) but for more casual, like family pictures for example (or obviously street photo) i find it better if the shutter is completely silent, people then won’t try to pose for the camera and you can get more natural moments
Chelsea's firmware update tip ( this video is about camera settings not lenses ) at 8:03 is awesome, also don't forget to check your lenses for firmware updates as well.
I was just on KEH and found something I was interested in. I thought to myself, wonder what Tony and Chelsea have for codes over here. Then, I went to youtube, and your video was top of the list for new videos. Talk about perfect timing.
I love this type of videos guy! keep it up. I also have a challenge for you: can you make a video on how to photograph paintings? specifically dark ones.
I really appreciate the tip on reprogramming the AF function. I rarely use AF, but when I have, I've experienced the frustration of having focus change as I press the shutter button. In my case, I programmed the AF function to a button on the front of the camera near the lens because the AE button right next to my eye is not very convenient, even more moreso because I use my left eye to look in the viewfinder, since it has stronger vision than my right eye.
I already subscribed and liked the videos I've watched. There is nothing more for me to do is to say thank you. You work matters and you guys are amazing. Keep working and get better, we love you!!!
I was hoping you'd include some tips on setting the white balance and the auto noise processing on a new camera. I only recently switched from 35mm SLR to a full frame mirrorless camera and those two things took me the longest to set (sort of) right.
Auto noise processing may slow your camera down a lot while it processes the noise. I leave that turned off and process noise in Lightroom if needed. I set white balance to auto and change in Lightroom. If you shoot raw you will be able to make noise and white balance changes, if your shooting jpeg you can make very little changes.
Battery savings settings may vary between cameras, it used to matter to me a lot more before the Sony a7r series batteries were made larger, even as a hobbyist battery life was a drag. One tip from back in the day was to turn off wireless (i.e. put it in airplane mode) since I rarely needed wireless. I don’t think having wireless off affects Bluetooth and IR remote trigger but I could be wrong and it might depend on brand. I also never actually quantified whether it saved energy the way Tony might. However, probably doesn’t hurt to turn off wireless when not needed.
I have four comments. Canon R7 Number 1: I am wondering if I reset my camera. Will it go back to the way it was when it came to my front door? I am considering this to start over since I have focus issues. 2: I never shoot RAW because my camera on Jpg is much smarter than me on RAW. My editing with RAW has ruined photos. Just me. 3: I have tried subject tracking on and off and prefer off. On makes the focus boxes erratic. 4: Again maybe just me, but downloading firmware and installing seems to be rocket science to me? It is a challenge to get this done. This is why I have not done the latest update. Plus someone was saying the new firmware update creates focus issues? Thx
Thank you for this video! I recently visited Milford Photo to upgrade my RUclips camera from my old Samsung Galaxy S8+ to a Canon EOS R7 based on several of your reviews and other videos I watched. The R7's dual slot is why I went with it over the R10. I will definitely check out your tutorials and review my camera settings! What microphones do you use and prefer? That's next on my shopping list.
Tony and Chelsea, I love you so much! Thank you for all the wonderful videos and book, I enjoy photography a great deal in my life all thanks to you, and my family enjoys great portraits 😊
@10:21 I have to disagree with you Chelsea on using really large cards. I use to believe on having a very large card as well. I think its best to have lots of smaller cards in case something happens like corrupt card, losing or dropping your camera in water etc. That way you don’t lose all your memory from a trip or as wedding photographer, you don’t lose the entires days work.
i need to take out my camera to the beach again. i would like to get the 1.2L canon 50mm, those have gone up a lot in last few years. one day i will get harkness park, still havent been and im only 20min away from there.
If you shoot RAW set max ISO to the last value that does gives more information from the sensor. Like 800ISO most of the time. You can always correct exposure later and this will avoid clipping light sources. Check astrophotography pages to get the exact max iso for your camera. For jpeg yes the information provided in the video is correct.
Yes, this is true for raw files, but it's nice to see the properly exposed image in-camera, and it produces better quality JPGs & video. There's no drawback to it, so why wouldn't you use the higher ISO when the exposure requires it.
Hi Canon EOS, T7 I am having a hard time taking pictures inside and outside I would like to know more about my camera some of the settings you all had were good. Where can I find more details about the camera?
hi i like ur vedios alot , i also setup my d750 from ur vedio , can u make a vedio about vignetee control. i dont understand what is is mean off , normal , high means . and how can i get rid of it. thanx
I am a Realtor using a Nikon D850 and I like to use multiple focus points to make sure the room is clear…what do you think as you mentioned you like to use a single focus point?
I love watching your videos. I have little to no "real" camera experience. Use my Pixel 7 Pro. Looking into starting a hobby in cameras and wanted something for my hikes, Florida/Georgia outdoor adventures and New England hikes in Maine, NH and Vermont. I want a good zoom for the animals. Was looking into a Sony RX10 mark 4 as my newbie camera due to the fact it looks pretty easy to use. I had tried in the past the Sony RX 100 mark 2 and didn't like it for lack of zoom. Also tried a Sony mirrorless and sold that due to all the different lenses you had to buy. What is your opinion. I also bought your book. Thanks
The diopter has always confused me. Should I dial it in for my weak eyeball or for the glasses I wear? And how does it relate to the camera's focus, especially if I'm shooting manual focus?
It doesn't change focus. If you keep your glasses on when using the viewfinder, adjust it for your glasses. If you take your glasses off, adjust it for your uncorrected vision.
great video, but since I had a card corrupt and I couldn't retrieve my shots even after sending to Sandisk. I'd rather have multiple cards, if a card gets full, then I just switch cards. That way I won't lose a full trip. But I always bring a EXHD to download to without deleting till I put them on my home PC.
I always reset the file naming prefix to show me which camera each image came from. On my Nikon it is located under the Photo Shooting Menu | File Naming.
An auto-focus question. I have recently begun taking videos of objects on a turntable. Should I turn auto-focus on or off, since the object is usually long and the focal distance will change as the object rotates? I need for the entire object to stay in focus without the camera shifting focus every time the object moves away from or nearer to the camera. Any help is appreciated.
The daylight saving option is so counterintuitive, but I guess it cannot auto-adjust if the camera isn't connected to an outside time source as DSTs are not universal, leave it on or leave it off, it doesn't matter because you'll probably forget anyway! At least Lr can sort it out for you! I think I probably do most of everything else here.
Oh they could easily include a database of every timezone's DST behavior. It's a solved problem, even without Internet access (sure, if you keep a camera longer than a decade there's a remote possibility your country will change its rules). They just don't bother for some reason. Usually they don't even record the timezone information in the metadata anywhere; Canon is the only one I've seen that has a makernote tag to store it allowing you to actually calculate UTC time. It also drives me nuts when security cameras don't have built in DST rules for their on screen clock display, which is especially infuriating knowing they're all based on a linux OS that I'm pretty sure includes this database anyway unless you go out of your way to remove it. I wouldn't be surprised if the firmware on most of them actually includes the files, but they just make up some janky UI where you have to remember which Sunday of March it changes rather than selecting a geographic time zone.
I always forget to change it when I'm traveling and then the images has some obviously incorrect time stamp and can even end up with the wrong date which can be a pain, so I just change it after the fact, I guess the 1 hour DST isn't so important a lot of the time... Camera firmware seems a bit backward. It's a bit crazy that security cameras don't auto-adjust given that footage could potentially be used in evidence, even some basic dashcams do that.
Original RAW files are generally photos that normally need processing in post, such as in Lightroom. You do not save the changes in the original RAW file but rather export or save to another format such as JPEG. In this way you may return to your original RAW photo without edits or readjust the settings to something else you want.
you said you should turn on and off the daylight savings time setting on your camera during the transition from standard to daylight savings time and back but you didn't say what advantage that provided. how does that help please?
Back button AF is something I've been using for years now. It's usually very useful when I do exposure bracket, as my camera can't do it automatically. Or I'm testing out different exposures for astrophotography side.
I know it’s nitpicking, but the proper term is daylight saving time, not “savings.” It’s a common mistake. Indeed, I noticed even one of the cameras in your video had it spelled incorrectly. 🙂
I will only shoot with RAW, because even if a JPG was good enough for the shot concerned, editing the RAW file is half the fun of photographing something. I also like all the beeps they let me know something is actually happening 😁😉
@@JaredHoyman So, I googled it and this is what I found: In 2022, the United States Senate passed a bill to make Daylight Saving Time permanent. If enacted, this bill would take effect starting in November 2023.[57]-wikipedia
max iso is a silly one because you might never think to lower your shutter speed or use a wider aperture. Also if there's not enough light for iso 1600-3200 the shot is probably ass and not worth taking anyway
I definitely didn't tell people to use an unnecessarily shorter shutter speed. Higher ISO produces better images in those low-light scenarios where you need it.
Back button AF did not work for me at all. Press thumb to focus then index finger to shoot for each shot that does not make sense. Fuji's pre auto focus works great for me, when I go to press the shutter button it has already focused so there is no change in what I am seeing as in focus in the viewfinder. It also makes it quicker to shoot when you hit the shutter because it is already focused. I use the AF-L button (toggle mode) if I want to lock the focus on something and recompose or do multiple landscape like you indicated. AF-L will override the re-focus when you press the shutter.
Definitely one of your mot helpful videos to date. I also liked the fact you covered four different manufacturers showing the actual screen pages. Very slick!

Like the combination of personal touch, general advice, and brand-specific steps.
My old t3i doesnt have most of these settings but I had forgot and will return to using the "Back AutoFocus" feture. Thanks for the remind.

Very good job, Tony and Chelsea, very good helpful job indeed!!!
I notice you both have the same key ring tag on your camera strap and was wondering what it is and if it’s something for taking photos?
It's probably an AirTag to help us find a lost camera (and let us know that we forgot it at a restaurant or something).
Great tips. Good stuff as always. Thanks for what you do for us.

@@JaredHoyman So, I googled it and this is what I found: In 2022, the United States Senate passed a bill to make Daylight Saving Time permanent. If enacted, this bill would take effect starting in November 2023.[57]-wikipedia
is iso speed range the same as auto iso range on the a7iii?
43.5 is the true normal. Around 28mm is the most common for smartphones btw.
max iso is a silly one because you might never think to lower your shutter speed or use a wider aperture. Also if there's not enough light for iso 1600-3200 the shot is probably ass and not worth taking anyway
I definitely didn't tell people to use an unnecessarily shorter shutter speed. Higher ISO produces better images in those low-light scenarios where you need it.
Back button AF did not work for me at all. Press thumb to focus then index finger to shoot for each shot that does not make sense. Fuji's pre auto focus works great for me, when I go to press the shutter button it has already focused so there is no change in what I am seeing as in focus in the viewfinder. It also makes it quicker to shoot when you hit the shutter because it is already focused. I use the AF-L button (toggle mode) if I want to lock the focus on something and recompose or do multiple landscape like you indicated. AF-L will override the re-focus when you press the shutter.
Thanks. :)
Why not do a how to use video on the Canon T8i as it's a little different than the T7i.
Do you turn off focus assistant?
