that1cameraguy how to stream with the Sony a6000?
that1cameraguy and how to use the cameras strengths that a camera phone can't do with the Sony a6000
I cant believe u only have 29k, id think u have like 290k.
You just BLEW MY MIND when you tilted the flash. GAME CHANGER 🙌🏻
no joke. Yesterday i shot an event with my a6000 ans tilted the flash and it worked sooo good. Really saved the evening.
Can't wait to get home to try this!!!! I almost bought external flash already for ceiling bouncing...
I already knew it before I watched this video yet still amazed 😂
Thanks for laying out your thought process so simply here. I just bought an a6300 and a few lenses. I've never really done proper, non-phone photography before with the exception of sophomore year about 12 years ago and while I have been reading up on it and getting a grasp on basic fundamental aspects, the way you explain your step by step assessment of any given photo has been quite helpful. Thinking of and adjusting these three main functions in a logical order is absolutely the best way for a beginner like me to learn what the camera is doing when an adjustment is made and how I can get what I want from a camera instead of just settling for whatever auto mode decides to give me. Thanks a lot, man.
These series of a6000 videos are explendid, and the speedlight on camera and off camera videos will be the best!!! Best regards from Brazil, and sorry about my English...
Keep up the good job with your coverage of tutorials for a6000 and kit lens =). Greetings from Mexico
Amazing video! Game changer for sure! From impossible shots indoors without any additional lighting to amazing photos with just the flash!
thanks for the tutorial.
I have followed all your steps, and practice!
I improved soooo muchhhh in such a short time!
thankyou so much for giving such detailed explanations about sony a6000. i actually just bought my camera 2 weeks ago so your videos helped me a lot. :)
So helpful. This was my most productive 18 mins so far this Holiday weekend. Cheers and keep producing content 👌
love that with the a6300/a6500 out there you're still making great a6000 content! can't wait to get a new one
This was a great video. I am a beginner, and I found this very informative and useful.
I def had to subscribe, I watched 2 videos of yours so far and have learned more about my a6000 camera in 2 videos than I have in the over several videos daily I watch. You have a great way of teaching and really do hit all points of topic that I had questions on. I'm looking forward to continuing to watch more of your videos you cover on the sony a6000. Thank you and keep these videos coming. Your great!
Great tutorial! I can't stop watching them I've learned a lot so far, keep it up!
Watching this on 2022 with my a6000. So well explained!! Besides the photography you certainly got potential in teaching!! Thanks a lot!
Would love to see a tutorial for night photography
I don't think I've seen any better videos on getting the best out of these lens in low light situations, thanks mate. I have been learning with my first and new camera 6400 with a 16-50mm kit for the last 2 weeks
Great video.definitely helping me become more confident in my first camera purchase.Thanks for shedding light on the a6000
Awesome tutorials for the A6000 👍 I've been learning a lot and finally getting out of auto mode lol.
Very detail explanation n pleasing photo results..thx 4 sharing
your videos come in ideal time I just bay a6000 this week
thanks so much
Very cognizant observations. Never knew 3 iso stops is = to about an f stop. Greetings from Thailand.
Flash in the majority of camera is in ⅓ steps e.g. starting from 100 ISO it's next click is ISO 125, next click is ISO 160, and the third click is ISO 200 which from ISO 100 to ISO 200 is 1 f stop. Each click is ⅓ of a stop so 3 clicks = 1 fstop. Hope that helps you.
This was a so helpful. You did such a great job both explaining and showing us how to do things. Thanks!
Awesome way of getting relatively natural-looking lighting. I had no clue you could tilt it up. Thanks!
This was a great video. I am a beginner, and I found this very informative and useful. Saludos from Argentina!!
OUTSTANDING Tutorial - keep up the great work
Great video. I'm more of an off camera flash shooter, but this has given me something to think about in different shooting conditions.

stumbled into your channel awhile ago and it helped me to make a decision to get a6000 over fuji xa3. I just wished I stumbled into this particular video 2 weeks ago, before I went to my friend's wedding in a venue with very low lighting. great channel, very informative.
really well made tutorial with detailed steps, thank you!
I just tried this in my room and jesus is this a game changer tip. It lit the room up properly, and my subject was visible in such a soft flash tone as opposed to having such a harsh direct flash
Love the videos. Learning a lot
Very informative. Learned a lot! Keep up the good work!
And yes it would be great if you could show us how you use a6000 with an extensional flash, like the HVL-F32M.
Systematic explanation. You are such a great teacher! Thank you
Hi man , thanks for the video , appreciate your hard-work behind every videos that you come up with . Its really helpful for beginners like me . Waiting to see a video on speedlight .
Another great video. Keep upbthe good work!
Thank you for a good video. I just want to comment that the reason when you drop your shutter speed and did not see much different (brighter) in the background is because your background is so close to the subject and therefore get good lighting from the flash. In the real world situation, with the background so far away, it will not be lit by the flash and therefore will be brighter as you drop the shutter speed as you have shown. Thank you.
Incredible video, thanks!
Thank man. i was about to buy a flash but being a newbie at photography i opted not to spend too much money on things i may not need for now. thank God i found your video...i reckon i can get by using this built in flash when shooting a dinner party in a darkish venue.
Thanks for your continual coverage of all of the functionality of the A6000. Your tutorials have been helping me a lot in trying to understand all of the settings and options. Wondering if you could do a video tutorial covering the XAVCS video feature, what type of SD card, and SD card speed is needed to be able to capture in XAVCS. Later on possibly do a time lapse tutorial for us A6000 nubies. Thank you for your dedication and continued success!!
Wow love love this, very helpful
Definitely would like to see a speedlight video
Me Too.
Timothy C. ETTL mode in canon 70D do we need to set camera menu to get proper exposer .if yes what changes u make in camera.

great video!! thanks!!
It works for me wow! Thank you so much for your video
You’re great, thanks for tour videos 😎💪🏼
Very informative 'that1cameraguy'. Thank you. Yes, I want to listen and learn from you on how to use external flashes or speedlight.
Thank you for sharing this great tutorial. Looking forward to one on the external flash :))
Really helpful. Thanks man!
Love your a6000 videos! Keep it up bro!:)
Thanks!
Thank you for your tutorial😇
Just a noob and haven’t purchased yet, but your videos have given me the confidence that I will enjoy using the a6000. This was particularly helpful. I’d like to add that Thomas Shahan did a video on macro in which he used a piece of paper sandwiched between two pieces of plastic that served to diffuse the light from the flash (Pentax) when outdoors. I’m sure it would only work for closer subjects, but I wonder if something similar might work in shadow or late day at about 35mm and specifically on the a6000. I’m seeking ways to make the a6000 all the more affordable for me. Again, great stuff and getting a lot from your channel.
Your video are sooo very helpful... thanks a lot
I definitely needed this!
Very nice explained! A thumb up for sony and for you
good information
thanks bro !!!
grat video, but i have a problem with the modes of flash, i want use te pop-up flash as triger with a speedlight and studio flash. To shoot with sony a6000 and pop up flash only trigger the speedlight (altura) but the studio flash doesnt. both are in s1 mode.
Watched the full manual control video a while back to get a grasp of manual shooting since I never chose photography courses in school. I even took notes on that video, I Learned it, and consider myself fairly experienced now. Was wondering if the flash if was useful, just wanted to say that when beginning this video, I got the weirdest stepping back into the classroom feeling. Thanks for these videos, free education.
Great videos!! Thank you very much
Great tutorial! Thanks
very useful. thank you!
Awesome bro! Thanks for information 🔥
Excellent 👌
Thank You.
its nice tutorial, it help me on my friends wedding.
hope you make video about external flash with sony a6000 nd maybe how to record the live view like you do in this video.
✌
Thanks bro! Learned so much!
amazing videos love it :)
1/40 shutter speed? Really? Them photos gonna be blurry especially when you're taking a photo of a person.
This is brilliant
You are a great teacher
Love to see similar with Godox flash. I have purchased the TT350s but instructions are not easy for me for follow.
ISO auto = ISO 500 at 8:20. Not ISO 100 as mentioned.
Ya notice that too. Coz manual ISO 100 vs auto ISO is not the same. But the point his trying to help is nice. Maybe he didn't notice.
This channel is amazing
you have an amazing camera room, would love to see a video just on your room, and set up. and what computer software you are using etc. cheers
Great Job.Thanks a lot.
Thank you so much 🎉
very nice tutorial!
You are a great content educator.
bro this helped me so much thanks
so much learning from you sir
I would be interested. So far I have used my external flash like you showed in this video. Can you show what are the advantages of having an external flash vs the internal? Thanks.
Great video
Really good tutorial! Thank you very much! I use on my a6000 Gary Fong's flash bounce panel. Have you tried it? What your thoughts on it ?
Thanks man. You're so Informative. (:
Good Vid.
Thanks!!
Thank you, for me to subscribe and like. I must get knowledge and learn something from a video. You maxed that out.
Great series!. Do you have any video that shows how to use the popup + one wireless flash controlled by the popup light? Thank you!
Very good flash-tutorial.
At 08:19 you chose AUTO instead of ISO 100. That´s why this picture is also overexposed.
Very useful
It's really useful
Thank you very much, this video about flash usage was the one I was looking for a long time.
One more question: Can we "dumb trust" or somehow setup auto ISO, auto flash to do it or the only way to make the proper photo is to know the properties and set them up in manual mode?
You always do a fantastic job I'm a hobbyist photographer, I'm trying out a long exposure capture sometime soon. I wanted to see if you would do a long exposure video outside with water without UV filters. Your tips and tricks in depth on a sony A6000. Thanks agin with all you do keep up the great work.
Thank you! I would like to see MeiKe mk 320 on Sony a6000 review.
Question.. What option did you use on the flash? Was it "fill flash", "slow sync", or "rear sync".
And love your videos men! They've been very helpful to me!
Great tutorial !!! Just great !!! Many thanks !!!........Problem is when you are outside, and don't have a roof or wall to bounce the flash off of, do you have a video that gives any ideas ? Thanks again.
Thank yoooouuuuu. Stiiillll don't have an external flash for my a6000 like I did for my NEX-5, limits my low-light photography. Tho now I do have an f1.4 lens, but I do miss having a flash eg. in parties when it's really dark, plus having a flash gives a specific look.
WOW
Very well explained
Bro Have you made any Video on Off camera flash use & setup (Basic/affordable)
If yes please share the link
Dude... you are great. I'm always on the negative side when flash is needed. I don't like it. But... I think I'm gonna try those tips right now... I bought a cheap Sony NEX 5R and kit lens are bad in low light situations.
