This video should be seen by all beginners with the a6000! It has helped me with the many confusing buttons and has leveled up my photography game. Thankssssssss
It's not a beginner camera it's just a budget friendly mirrorless cam. There's thousands of professionals that have shot with it and made a living. Great video though! Cheers
Agree. I just replaced my 5dii that my wife uses with the a6000. Paid $2500 for the Canon new and at the time it was a "pro" camera. I can say the a6000 is a better camera in every way besides it not being full frame.
Wow!!!! I have had my camera for almost a year and have picked it up a million times and put it down because the settings just weren't right!!! I came across your video today and set my camera exactly how you told me and immediately my shots are crystal clear and the color is picture perfect!
It's so hilariously suspicious how you just refer to the things you had to change as „the settings“. ...like you're friends with the channel owner and determined to do him some kind of lip-service favour. All, of course, without being interested in photography or (god beware!) the specific “settings“ of some clickamy-jig. XD
Thanks for sharing the basic settings, so that I can find what works best for me. I am getting a Sony a 6100 for Christmas and I want to make sure that I can set it up for success. Though I have taken photos for quite a while--on a Nikon and then a few Canons--moving to a Sony was kind of my dream. However, I still want to follow my muse--and NOT worry about learning traditional photography--so anything that helps me channel the muse, but take decent photos and great video is what I was looking for. I was happy to find your video. Hopefully, you have given me what I need to keep the creative activity flowing. Thanks!
Thanks for this. There's so many settings, that I've just been following my interest with different short videos rather than trying to learn every setting. A lot of the settings you talk about are available through the "Fn" button. I think it helps for a new user to start there.
Terrific tutorial. I watched some done by others, and it was like they were in a race to get through each setting. You took the time to explain everything, which was really helpful. Thanks!
I know my Christmas gift is a Song a 6100 camera, so I am trying to learn as much as I can before I get it. Thanks for providing a great setting tutorial! :)
Thanks for making this video. I've had my camera for over a year but haven't used it much because I was lost on all the functions it had and what settings to use. Most other videos on TH-cam were either way too far in-depth or not enough. Yours was a perfect balance, detailed and concise. I hit the like and subscribed ~ thanks again.
This video really freaking rocks. Thank you sooo much. Been about 15 years since I did photography, and dang I actually forgot a lot…. I’m now needing it for my business, and while I’m not a beginner, I really needed this for all the settings info, etc. thank you so much!
such a great tutorial for someone like me who doesn't understand cameras at all, detailed but concise.Thank you so much! I'd LOVE a similar tutorial for shooting (sports) video on the Sony a6000. I have to shoot my daughter surfing and keep accidentally changing the settings and don't know what I should go back to as kind of default settings. Thanks again.
Just bought my a6000 gently used for $223 at unclaimed baggage! Can’t wait to get to see how it shoots! Nice and sharp looking camera. Super helpful video! Soooooo many settings and a little overwhelming, but this was super helpful!
Thanks a million. This camera has been sitting in my closet for a while ( got it as a gift). Ive always used Nikon so I was a bit lost ( of sort). Your video was the best. Perfect settings for wonderful pictures. Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I am not so patiently awaiting my a6000 to come in the mail and wanted to start learning more about it. This was very helpful and at a speed that you can actually see what you're doing.
Same here! I ordered mine on Monday march 16th and it'll be arriving around the 22nd. Super excited. Im just hoping that mail is still gonna get delivered with everything going on
These beginner settings are awesome! I've had my camera for a couple of years but the settings I used (from a different TH-camr) didn't produce photos with this kind of awesome quality. Thank you for making this video!
thank you for making this video! I had this camera for almost a year and I pretty much was just teaching myself and learning as I shot photos, this expanded my knowledge so much.
You are a big help and now I could play this video as a quick review before I do some photo shooting. To go out with a camera unprepared is frustrated. Thank you!
I think this video was a great walk through .. I am a beginner and know nothing about this camera. Your voice is calm and steady which helps to focus and retain content. My only suggestion would be to have something to actually focus on in front of the camera - the white screen does little to help see what you are changing .. even just a soda can. Otherwise, so helpful, thank you so much!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I had changed my ISO to 3200 to take photos of my son’s basketball senior season but I forgot to ever change the ISO back to a normal setting - until I watched your video. Plus, I learned other stuff that I will refer to later
Thank you so much! I just started my journey as a photographer and these settings rrally improved my photos. Im super excited to get out there and take more! 😁
Thank you so so much for making this! Extremely helpful for using my Sony a6000! It would be super awesome if you could do a video that explains the best setting to capture more slow motion shots/videos (powder sugar, sauce pouring, drip shots)
I’m struggling to learn how to use my camera (it was a gift from my son). Sometimes I take some really nice pictures but I often “accidentally” change settings and I can’t figure out how to get my camera to work at all. This was a great video. I’ll be looking for more. Thank you
Thank you so much for this video! I was kinda sleeping on all the custom settings I can use with this camera and was slightly disappointed with my first couple of pictures - now I see it's just up to the details of my settings. This made me really understand my camera a lot better! Also you explained everything so well. Got a new subscriber there :-)
Nice video. I would have explained the color space so people who plan to edit/print would get the best out of their camera but other than that its very good. Im not a beginner but i wanted to make sure i wasent going to forget anything going back at it after a year off
This is a very helpful tutorial and given with good diction and at a speed that permits time to hear and understand. Well done! Oh, and I've subscribed... :)
Watched your beginner tutorials for photography and video. THANK YOU. I've been struggling with taking pictures of my kids in sports (football & lacrosse). Do you have a separate tutorial for this (I didn't see one)? Also, if I took your advice on all the settings you recommended in your photog tutorial, what do I set the top to (M, S, A, yellow, green, etc.)? Have been very frustrated, as I get tons of blurry photos, no matter what mode I use.
Hi thks very useful tips, i have one question i try to transfer my pic to smart phone, but camera not sharing to iphone 8 plus,i followed inst but its not working can you help me.
Can you do some photo shoots with setting options? Such as: - portraits - street photography - low light concert photography - landscape - motion - story telling photography -etc....
This was absolutely great!! I appreciate it so much! I am officially subscribed as I anticipate your past and future videos!! You were considerate and patient..and I thank you!!
Just got an A6100, my first camera ever... I'm lost! lol I mainly bought it because I want to use it for webcam streaming on my twitch/youtube that I'm going to be starting. I'm going to wake up and re-watch this in the morning, did you ever make the video recording tips video?
Hi. I'm trying to use aperture priority in video settings but the shutter speed doesn't change with the apertures - just the exposure. Is there a way to control the aperture without affecting exposure or is 24fps stuck to a shutter speed?
Hello, I use the a6000 to shoot time intervals using an intervalometer, when shooting and positioning the camera with the lens down, the camera cannot understand its position in space and takes chaotically mixed vertical and horizontal frames, which is extremely inconvenient for post-processing, is this possible in cameras Sony disable the g sensor and make all frames strictly vertical or horizontal?
Thank you for this video. I bought this camera over 4 years ago and barely used it as I did not know how. I bought it for my clothing boutique for moments we could not book a photographer. My camera was the floor model at Best Buy so it never came with a manual or "how to"- so thanks again. I do have one question though. How can I manipulate the focus to make my subject (model) more in-focus and the background (I.e. outdoor bush) more soft and faded?
Woah, I know this video is 4 years old but I just noticed when you said subscribe the subscribe button had a glow effect. Must be a new TH-cam feature.
New sucscriber. Thanks for all the info. I want to take a few pics at a friends wedding tomorrow. Venue will be outside. Any particular settings I need to use for wedding photos? Thanks.
Hi, I’m really struggling with taking close up shots, it always goes out of focus. I’m desperate for some detailed eye shots for makeup. Also when I use flash it’s way too bright sometimes and other time’s the background is too black. I just want a normal detailed good quality photo. I’ve watched so many tutorials. What am I doing wrong? The photos are only focused when it’s further away but by the time you zoom and and crop them you loose quality
This video should be seen by all beginners with the a6000! It has helped me with the many confusing buttons and has leveled up my photography game. Thankssssssss

Yup
I bought one Today with 50mm 1.8

Bro thank you, I hate that it has that name bc it’s really not a beginner camera
I did a pixel by pixel comparison of the a6300 with my Canon 5DIII - same size image - and I could hardly tell which was which!
Wow!!!! I have had my camera for almost a year and have picked it up a million times and put it down because the settings just weren't right!!! I came across your video today and set my camera exactly how you told me and immediately my shots are crystal clear and the color is picture perfect!
I bought my A6000 a year after release and never knew of these settings, and just like you, I feel as though I have a new camera!
Same here! Amazing how the tiny details in the settings can make such a difference. Really glad I found this :)
It's so hilariously suspicious how you just refer to the things you had to change as „the settings“.
...like you're friends with the channel owner and determined to do him some kind of lip-service favour.

Glad I could help! Congrats on the new camera, i'm sure you'll love it.

Thank you so much for your video on how to use the A6000 for a beginner. I just bought the camera and this is going to help so much.
Excellent advice without a boring voice 📸

Nice job providing a quick understanding and setting recommendations for beginning photographers using the Sony a6000.
Thank you, finally decided to get a real camera for photography. This helps a lot

THE BEST tutorial for a beginner that I've seen. (And I've watched quite a few with much confusion.) Thank you so much!!
These beginner settings are awesome! I've had my camera for a couple of years but the settings I used (from a different TH-camr) didn't produce photos with this kind of awesome quality. Thank you for making this video!
I am interested to see this with video settings!!

Thanks Ive been trying to figure out the settings on this camera for quite a while.
Best video by far on the Sony a6000!
I think this video was a great walk through .. I am a beginner and know nothing about this camera. Your voice is calm and steady which helps to focus and retain content. My only suggestion would be to have something to actually focus on in front of the camera - the white screen does little to help see what you are changing .. even just a soda can. Otherwise, so helpful, thank you so much!
You really have good teaching technique. I am learning quite a bit from your tutorials. Very clear and intuitively paced!
This is the best video I have seen for beginners with this camera explaining the settings. Thanks so much!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I had changed my ISO to 3200 to take photos of my son’s basketball senior season but I forgot to ever change the ISO back to a normal setting - until I watched your video. Plus, I learned other stuff that I will refer to later
Great video. Just bought the A6000 on eBay and this was such a big help.
Thank you so much! I just started my journey as a photographer and these settings rrally improved my photos. Im super excited to get out there and take more! 😁
Thank you so so much for making this!
Extremely helpful for using my Sony a6000! It would be super awesome if you could do a video that explains the best setting to capture more slow motion shots/videos (powder sugar, sauce pouring, drip shots)

From indonesian
But what setting do you need to use? Like the one on top of the camera that you can turn
Woah, I know this video is 4 years old but I just noticed when you said subscribe the subscribe button had a glow effect. Must be a new TH-cam feature.
Thanks for all the tips!
Solid video, I'm using these settings on my a6400.
Great video..BIG help..does S6000 have an automatic shut off?
Very well done and clear
Absolutely awesome explanation
Thank you!
New sucscriber. Thanks for all the info. I want to take a few pics at a friends wedding tomorrow. Venue will be outside. Any particular settings I need to use for wedding photos? Thanks.
