How to Use Automatic Bracketing on the Nikon Z6ii
มุมมอง 16K2 ปีที่แล้ว
How to Use Automatic Bracketing on the Nikon Z6ii
Only talking about gear isn't as interesting as watching content created with the gear. Once I get a bigger apartment, I'll definitely get more plants and lights. Will cheer me up during winter. Good for mental health to see green.
So, this is just my opinion, but: It's easy enough to start separate channels with different themes. Keep one channel for photography, one for plants, one for opinions about shoelaces, or whatever other interests you may have. You can link to your other channels in the description under each video. But, if you really don't care about growing subscribers and all that, you should just do what makes you happy.
Yes, do what you feel is the best. I just got my first house plant this year but I don't know much about plants so it would be interesting to get new ideas from you.
Thank you very much for this video! Just emersing myself into realestate photography and bracketing.
Very concise, easy to follow, well done
Cześć. Jaki jest rozmiar twojego boxa? L czy XL? W opisie jest, że spakowałeś do Boxa się large, czyli L. Pytam bo mam Z5, który rozmiarami jest równy Z6II.
Just got this camera. Thank you for brief overview of the camera. Good work!
Thank you for this information, very helpful :)
Thank you, this is the most clear explanation of the paths of light from source to sensor I have encountered. Your video makes it clear why sometimes light is shown to converge before it hits the sensor in some diagrams, but at the sensor in others. Thanks for taking a fresh approach.
Emmett, thanks so very much!! Your video tutorials for this camera are just THE BEST!
Thanks Emmett, it really helps to solve my problem.
nice video, i think you should do a full video about event , like how to work with manual mode how to set up shortcut for 2 best focus usage , how to set up the flash for night atc
great video !
How can I reenter the curve edit dialogue once I've made adjustments and left it? The only way I found was clicking on "default" again what leads to a lose previous adjustments.
Why is HSL hue shift doing absolutely nothing to my black/white/grey camouflage pattern? But when I recolor, it adds a color tint over everything?
Nice tutorial! Thank you
The use the term “Cheaper”refers to quality, I would use “Cost Less “ ntead
Holy moly. I have been fighting my z6ii re auto bracketing since the day I bought it. TH-cam has tons of "how to's" and everyone has their opinion on the best way. Today I stumble across your video and..... Magic. Now it is easy to use. THANK YOU for making this video.
Great video. I suggest you to get ND Filters for this type of photography to avoid lens diffraction caused by high f/stops. For those who doesn't know what diffraction is, is when a photograph grows progressively less sharp at small aperture values - f/16, f/22, and so on. As you stop down your lens to such small apertures, the finest detail in your photographs will begin to blur.
How do i turn bracketing off?
Use the wheel! Had same doubt few moments ago 😅
Thanks for this video from İstanbul..
I love shooting waterfalls, also using Nikon Z6II, so very helpful.
Thank you, this was really helpful. I'm shooting the Eclipse tomorrow and have had a difficult time figuring out bracketing. This video was much more helpful than most. Thanks again!
Good luck, I hope there's good weather and you can get some great photos!
@EmmettBudd Thanks. Me too, I did pretty well in 2017 flying by the seat of my pants. I'm a bit nervous this time because I almost feel I'm over preparing.
Thank you very much for this video. I just went through a long question and answer chat session with a Nikon 3rd party tech that kept asking why I was using brackets and what I needed them for only to say, after an hour, I should go buy a book on the subject.
How do you set the central exposure speed? I want to take a series of exposures from 1/3200 to 4 seconds at F/11 with 1 stop increments. How do I do this? Many thanks. Paul
The central exposure is the camera's current settings when you start taking the bracket, and then it will automatically shoot above and below that point. For your use case, that range looks to be 15 stops, and the Z6ii will only take 9 photos at one stop increments of bracketing, so unfortunately one bracket won't cover that whole range, you'll have to adjust the settings once to cover it. That said, I'd suggest using manual mode. Turn the auto ISO off, set your f/11 aperture, and then set the shutter speed on the center stop you want for the bracket. Set the number of photos you want and an interval of 1 stop between them. In this case, if you use 9 photos at 1 stop, setting the shutter at 1/200 will cover the top 9 stops, from 1/3200 to 1/13, and then setting it at 1/4 will cover the bottom 9, from 1/60 to 4" (these don't align with the upper range perfectly because of rounding). You could tweak the settings to avoid overlap, but that's the overall process.
Wow. Thanks for the quick reply. I really appreciate it. You have a new subscriber. Paul
On the cameras front left brow can you enable that light so as to indicate whether recording is going on or not?
Is there a way to enable the light in the top left corner of the camera to Blink when it is recording
Unfortunately not, to my knowledge the Z30 is the only Nikon mirrorless camera to include a tally light. The Z6ii's light functions only as a focus assist when shooting in very low light conditions.
When you hide the info, it comes back after restarting the camera. i hate that so much
I was just considering a mic: Saramonic Blink 500 B2+ (TX+TX+RX) I don't know if it's good but it's not too expensive.
Hi all! I'm sorry the music volume is too loud in this video, it is quieter in my newer videos so I'd encourage you to check those out, but unfortunately there's nothing I can do to make the music quieter on this video that's already been uploaded. Just wanted to address that since this video is nearly two years old and I continue to get comments telling me to turn the music down. I would on this if I could, and the problem is fixed in newer videos. Sorry and thanks for watching!
Thank you so much. Just to make sure I understand - one can “turn on” AEB by changing the number of exposures from 0 to 3 or 5, etc. (and I turn off AEB by returning the number of exposures to 0), right?
Thanks for watching :) Yes, that's correct
Nice work and inspiring !
Very cool!
glad to see you back! look forward to whatever comes next, whenever that is :)
I've wondered where you have been...welcome back Emmett!
Yeah, I've wondered that too sometimes to be honest, real life sort of just got in the way. Thanks for your support!
Good to have you back!
Good to be back, thanks for sticking around :)
Welcome back. Don't get caught up in the tyranny of feeling that you have to produce content. Enjoy the process.
Thanks! I've been thinking about that exact thing a lot lately, and trying to enjoy doing things just for the sake of having fun doing them
Very helpful, Emmett, clear and concise. I've been a Nikon user for years but this is my first mirrorless camera. It arrived today and the user's manual enclosed is very basic with limited information. They should have called it the Useless Manual! ...I'm so pleased I found your video so at least I know what the various buttons are for, mostly intuitive and similar to my other Nikons, but a couple I had no idea until I watched your vid. So a big thank you from me. I have subscribed :)
Nice Video
Can i use sigma lens 28-80 f3.5-5.6 ef mount on Nikon d3100?
No it shoot be the F-mount version
Hi is it waterproof?
Mist proof...😅😅
Thanks man saved me tons of time!
A more apt title for this video might be older vs. newer camera. When I was gifted the D3100 in 2010 it retailed for almost 1K in a two lens kit.
Can I use lens sigma 28-80 f3.5-5.6 ef mount on my Nikon d3100?
Nice work. I love my 6ii and 24-200. (I use z20 mm/1.8 for my Aurora- and nightphoto. Take care!
Emmett, thanks for producing this video with hidden features - great stuff!
Very very interesting video. Thank you so much.
As editor, when do you know that are colors are almost same on reality? Remember need an aquire color image not as you like - this must be in real estate photos. Smartphone on 2 D images do a good job vs old DSLR
Hi, Is it possible to sink a flash on Z6II with focus bracketing mode like in Olympus
Hi there...very informative video...I'd like your opinion on a different type of image to be edited and which software you think would be better. I am a watercolor artist and would like to begin digitizing my artwork to print. Once I scan I will need to be able to adjust shade, tint, etc to get as close to my original artwork. I'm capable of learning, of course, but will be a editing novice. Which software do you think will be the best match for editing scanned original art work? Thank you for your thoughts.
Ah..... the progression of life. All the best to you Emmett.
