Bro, A is for aperture, recommended to 1.4 , S is for shutter speed, depending on what you want to achieve.. what is M stands for? And recommended value? Thanks!
Keep ISO low as possible and rely on aperture and shutter speed. Lower fstop aperture means blurry background so you can focus on subject. Fast shutter speed for if it's bright and sunny out not to let too much light in. Thank you!
I just got my first legit camera and have had no idea what these things mean. This video is very helpful for beginners like me who are just diving into photography. Thanks for the informational video!

This is the must watch video for first timers. I have seen a ton of video based on ISO, Aperture, Shutter Speed. This is the best one I've ever seen. Thank you guys for making this things easier.
I am a complete DSLR rookie and I know less than nothing, this is without doubt the most helpful tutorial I have found in 3mths of watching everything I can find to help me...THANK YOU
Exactly. I spent several hundred dollars on a collection of CDs for photography beginners. I learned more in this one video. I was especially looking for the information regarding High and Low Aperature and how it works. Thank you.
I'm getting a dslr bridge camera within the next few days and thus video was amazing help. This should really help me out on the Canon PowerShot SX530 HS

I am a complete novice in the world of photography but I'm about to purchase the Nikon D3400 and this video is BRILLIANT!!!! You guys have helped me soooo much thank you!!
Guys, great video, thank you. I am trying to pick up photography as a hobby. Nothing major, but it seems like when I do manage to take a decent picture, its a mystery to me how I did it as I was randomly adjusting things until I accidentally did something right. Of course, with that method, I can't reproduce the good results and I have a lot more bad results... lol.
I am a beginner and this video has helped me to understand about hot to use the ISO, shutter speed and aperture , that I did not understand at all. Thank you guys.
This video was a huge huge help. I’m a noob and hearing the terms while also see what the photo will look like once you adjust certain things really helped a visual learner like me. Thanks guys
I am beginner and I've had Nikon D3200 for 2 years and never used it because it was a gift. I never knew the potential it had. Learnt a lot in this video. Keep up the good work guys. Thankyou very much.

Dmitry, I wanted to ask you if you ever looked into some of those funky lenses. Such as tilt-shift etc. I know lens baby makes some cool ones, and there are also Petzval lenses that have beautiful circular bokeh. I'd be really cool if you did a review on one of those lenses and showed some beautiful b-roll, I know I'd watch the shit out of it
music2soothmysoul bruh I have ADD and OCD and Dyscalculia. None of these things are anything compared to autism. It’s ridiculously disrespectful to pretend it is.
Cheers gentleman. I just purchased my first camera in 40 yrs! I’m retired and I need a hobby. I bought a mirrorless full frame Canon camera simply because it’s perhaps a little easier to learn all the features, etc. Your video is very informative and well put together. Big Thanks.
Just bought my first "real" camera. I have no idea about photography and this video helped open the world to me. I don't even know what I don't know but now I have a start. Thank you all both so much for this video!!!
Finally, manual mode is explained in a logical way that makes sense. I've watched a bunch of these, iso, aperture shutter speed vids and they never made sense to me the way it was explained. This gets it right. Thanks for this vid.
Awesome guide guys! thank you. Had no clue about AV and TV modes. Huge help. Question: I just got the Canon 90d and when I film normal motion, I feel it's slightly jumpy. It's not smooth and natural. I am filming on M mode 1/125, F5 , Iso auto. What am I doing wrong?
Too high shutter speed. It should be 2x the frame rate you are shooting in. The 90D films in 4K 25fps which means your shutter should be 1/50 or 1/60. Now you leave alone the shutter speed and control the light with your ISO.
This is the first video I ever watched on the technicals of photography exposure. I've been shooting 6 years, as of this June, now. The lowlight images in this video inspired me to pick up and really learn to drive a camera and then continue to try to create meaningful images. Coincidentally, in that time, I also moved to Seattle. Cheers. 🍻
I bought a camera a few days ago. Canon T6. I have been watching videos trying to learn just basic adjustments for photos. Your video here is by far the best one ive watched. Its just super concise, basic explanation and it totally helped me. After this video I just took a whole bunch of shots playing with these 3 basic adjustments and that helped a ton too. Visiting a zoo in a few days and cant wait to get great shots. Thanks guys

im getting back into photography with a basic D60 this was a wonderful refresher. it's amazing how much someone forgets after 10 years of not doing anything.
This video was so helpful! I am feeling so much more motivated and confident in continuing my photography. Thank you so much for sharing this video and explaining the camera settings! If I could like this video a thousand times I would!
You guys don’t know how well and extremely helpful a video like this is. As well videos like this that takes something seemingly puzzling and complicated to a beginner and really take the time to break it down and properly explain so people can really get it as well “show” exactly what your trying to explain. I just yesterday bought a camera the Sony A73 and getting into photography and for years I’ve been confused with all the things you explained in videos. Been to many other site and this the first video of all those that really takes the time to show me exactly what your saying from high and low ISO, Aperture and Shutter Speed a d the difference it makes. Tutorial videos like these are a godsend to newbies to photography as well anyone refreshing who hasn’t practiced for years. Think I’ll have to watch this video a few more times to really get it all, just more so Aperture settings.
Why would you set your ISO first? Surely you want to set your desired depth of field and amount of motion blur first with the aperture and and shutter speed, and then adjust the ISO accordingly until the exposure is correct. Especially with cameras with really good low light performance, the ISO won't matter as much. Anyway, nice video covering the basics, looking forward to more advanced stuff. I own the Panasonic GH3, got it used off ebay a few months ago and have been loving shooting video with it.
Personally I like setting it first if I want to limit the amount of noise I have in the image and you have a basic idea of how much ISO you'll need for wiggle room with aperture and shutter speed
+Stalast I even put my camera a lot in auto ISO. I just put in the max ISO I want it to be, and then let the camera decide. Learning camera is kinda easy when you get out of the fear, and realize that that there is only certain number of shutter speed you are going to use (depending if you do lanscape, people or sport/action, and when you understand what aperture you prefer for your certain things. Then all become about getting the best exposure. In daylight that is easy, but indoors it becomes a little hard as compromises need to be made, unless you know how to use artificial lights (or even using natural lights) like flash, strobes and studio light. To me the step to learn photography is: 1. Learn to use the camera, all the technical parts and what they do. 2. Learn the rules of composition, learn how to break them. 3. Learn how to use light. Learn how to manipulated by either using natural or artificial light. Then if you want to be professional: 4. Learning to work with people and clients (if that is type of photography you want to do). Learn all about posing. Or if you want to do action, there are a lot of stuff you need to know, specially if you do extreme sport. Also learn how to manage a business, how to promote your work. Pretty much just study the type of photography you want to do, experiment and get better and better until you can get paid for it. There is probably something I forget. Photography is a lot of fun, it can be a way to create art, a way to create and store memories, or a way to document life. Even if you just use your phone you should still learn a little about photography just to be better to capture movements. But the most important thing is that photographer doesn't take pictures, he make pictures. Create the movements!
Because back in the day the iso was dependent on the film you use. So you has to decide first how sensitive the film is gonna be, put the film in and then you were stuck with that iso until the film was done
***** I did indeed. Never owned an SLR before. Don Grille Makes sense, thanks for the explanation. Though it seems like it's completely unnecessary for digital, hence why I questioned it.
+Tek Syndicate ~ 13:40 There is absolutely nothing wrong with a crop sensor (like the 1.6 crop at the canon side). They are even preferred in some area's of photography.
+Craftypiston Often useful to get more out of a telephoto lens. At crop factor 1.6 a 400mm Lens effectively becomes a 640mm. No need to be prejudiced against a crop sensor. It's all about the correct application. Now granted crop sensors are weaker in low light due to the smaller photocells, but for most daylight photography you'd never notice.
Do some research on crop sensors and what that actually means with respect to full-frame. HINT: it's called 'crop' sensor for a reason. HINT 2: are you actually getting more zoom? or are you getting the same zoom as a full frame but with all four edges cropped off?
I have ADHD and Dyslexia, you guys are totally on par for someone like me. Totally chill, no words I never heard of, no speaking like the video is going to end and no lame jokes.
I used this to help my photography school work, I had to imply how aperture and shutter speed affect a photo and this video helped me understand how they both work to an extent that I didn't even know.
+Mike Clough (Rusty_Trombone) Nothing much man! Finally managed to score a second hand manfrotto tripod and video head on the cheap so i'm all set up for making videos now! Good day haha Hope all your xmas preparations are going well!
Fantastic tutorial for a confused beginner! I watched a few others before coming across this one and I really loved the way you explained things and showed the different photos with the different settings. Makes so much more sense now. Thank you!!
My daughter has been teaching me how to shoot with my camera but she was only teaching me in manual mode, she is one that believes that is the best way to learn. I was trying to use some of the other features and was having a tough time cause I really didn't understand them until you said a few simple things that made it more clearer to me. I will be experimenting with A priority and TV priority more now. Thanks.
Watching this video that was made 7yrs ago has helped me sooooo much! Ive been doing photography for about a year now and only shoot whenever i have family events. This really helped me understand the depth of field playing around with the Fstop on my lenses.. for sure earned a sub! Will be cheking out more vids from you guys!
Great video on the "basics" but still very important. I have a Nikon, but not a D750. Some of your tips and secrets to do with aperture, really caught me by surprise..thank you for sharing such great information.
Kingdom Of Mog The best way to purchase! I was looking for a used T2i or T3i on ebay, and they were almost the same price as this combo I found. two VR lenses along with the 24MP goodness was too good to pass up.
4:48 thank you thank you for explaining this. very important information when you're really trying to figure this stuff out. more specifically, on my camera and maybe all others when i turn my dial right or "up" to increase the aperature number I incorrectly assumed the iris was widening. eventually i learned that the greater the aperture value the more closed the iris became. and this kind of messed with my mind for a while because one might have thought as i had that a larger value would equate to a larger iris. alas, as you have just explained where many other youtuber/tech info channels did not, that the smaller value equates to the distance between iris rim and the cylinder of the lens. aha! i'm frustrated because so many videos are only explaining the superficial function of ISO, aperture, and f/stop. grrr. there are a handful of nuanced technicalities that need to be understood before one can really manipulate the exposure trinity to their advantage.
This video is Amazing. This is my FIRST professional camera (Nikon D5600) I know Nothing about photography. I learned more in this video than in my photography class in college back in 2004 and in 2 one hour and one 45 min vid combined. I finally understand ISO, Aperture, and shutter speed.
I picked up my camera after it sat in the closet for a year. I felt like an Alzheimers😢 patient asking my son for my son. I just don't remember anything. But now, just halfway through your video and I feel better than before!! 🎉❤Thank you. I
If you could ever read did this. I just want to ask. @6:47 the photo seems to like a really really good photo. I just want to ask the settings you put before you shoot. And did you play with the color by using photoshop? or it's just one of the benefits of having a good lens? Because the color was superb. I'm new to photography and would like to take some good photos. I would appreciate if you could put some info. Great vid! Subbed!
I already knew about cameras but I dont know how to explain much very well. I showed my brother this because he has just bought a canon t5i and he said that this is one of the best videos that he has found yet and even I have learned a little from this as well. Keep up the work.
+MartGameFails This is a beginner video and you're boasting Ferraris to student drivers. Start with cheap entry DSLRs and abuse the shit out of it before you commit to a good one. My first one was a T3 I got for under $200 factory refurbished years ago and it's still great with a cheap 50mm 1.8. I lend it to interested friends who come with me to shoot on hikes. It's what and how you're shooting for the most part not what you're using. I saw this one girl on vacation shoot a Mark 5D on auto mode against the sun breaks my broke ass heart.
watched this the first time when i was thinking about upgrading from my phone to a dslr. i wanted to know the basics first before i bought a camera. now, i’m rewatching again because i just bought my first dslr. after a year of watching tutorials and everything else about/related to photography, i’m ready to step into this art form. thank you for this great video guys!!!!
Tuomas Rahikka look at the size of the lens though, there is only so much it can do, try putting the greatest distance between the subject and the background, also zooming in to get closer to the subject can help
Depth of field is NOT ONLY controlled by f-stop (aperture). It is also a function of focal length and camera-to-subject distance. Where your iPhone's tiny lens is limited is in the focal length area.
This is brilliant. I'm currently doing the professional photography course and this has helped me to confirm that I understand the course material correctly.
Phenomenal job explaining this stuff on basic terms so newbies can understand it. I've watched multiple other video and yours was by far the easiest to comprehend.
1:05 ISO

Keep ISO low as possible and rely on aperture and shutter speed. Lower fstop aperture means blurry background so you can focus on subject. Fast shutter speed for if it's bright and sunny out not to let too much light in. Thank you!
I’ve just gotten into photography. How low should I keep the ISO?
@@LuffyyyHM as low as posible. Setting will dictate ISO
So if its daylight out and i have my shutter speed maxed out like 1/4000 what setting should my iso be?
Dude what did you just say? 😂😂😂
Thanks this helped
If you can get the background out of focus everyone you know who has limited knowledge of photography will be impressed.

Because back in the day the iso was dependent on the film you use. So you has to decide first how sensitive the film is gonna be, put the film in and then you were stuck with that iso until the film was done
***** I did indeed. Never owned an SLR before.
Don Grille Makes sense, thanks for the explanation. Though it seems like it's completely unnecessary for digital, hence why I questioned it.
Thank you so much for this video !! I'm taking an intro to photography class, and I learned MORE in this video than I have in class! Ty! Ty! Ty!
+Tek Syndicate ~ 13:40 There is absolutely nothing wrong with a crop sensor (like the 1.6 crop at the canon side). They are even preferred in some area's of photography.
+Craftypiston Often useful to get more out of a telephoto lens. At crop factor 1.6 a 400mm Lens effectively becomes a 640mm. No need to be prejudiced against a crop sensor. It's all about the correct application. Now granted crop sensors are weaker in low light due to the smaller photocells, but for most daylight photography you'd never notice.
+Craftypiston Totally agreed. Crop sensors are often necessary in wildlife/sports photography.
+Craftypiston DX/Crop sensors are also significantly cheaper (brand new) than full frame ones.
Do some research on crop sensors and what that actually means with respect to full-frame. HINT: it's called 'crop' sensor for a reason.
HINT 2: are you actually getting more zoom? or are you getting the same zoom as a full frame but with all four edges cropped off?
Love these two guys’ chemistry. Complimentary to one another. Perfect.
Best video on the net for explaining the basics in photography. Thanks guys!
This video made all the difference between me today and me yesterday. Please keep it up.
6:51 man is casually takin a shot
Thank you for speaking in terms that Iunderstand! I'm just starting with a DSLR so this is so good
I have ADHD and Dyslexia, you guys are totally on par for someone like me. Totally chill, no words I never heard of, no speaking like the video is going to end and no lame jokes.
I used this to help my photography school work, I had to imply how aperture and shutter speed affect a photo and this video helped me understand how they both work to an extent that I didn't even know.
Awesome video guys! I just got my first dslr and this was very helpful. See you guys at Lan syndicate!
+Mike Clough (Rusty_Trombone) Why hello there
+Nanda Panda Tech Haha, whats good bro!
+Mike Clough (Rusty_Trombone) Nothing much man! Finally managed to score a second hand manfrotto tripod and video head on the cheap so i'm all set up for making videos now! Good day haha Hope all your xmas preparations are going well!
I found this video incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. Thank you so much!!👍🏻👍🏻
Great job. Thanks.
Fantastic tutorial for a confused beginner! I watched a few others before coming across this one and I really loved the way you explained things and showed the different photos with the different settings. Makes so much more sense now. Thank you!!
DONT SKIP THE ADS!!
This video is so helpful!!
thank you so much. this explained everything.
I found this course on photography really helpful for beginners : bit.ly/2fTsQ3E
This video was so helpful! Thank you!

Get a job, bum.
yes i agree... good tips.
the 5:55 photo looked good im a bit new too photography so this vid helped a lot :3 thxxx!!
My daughter has been teaching me how to shoot with my camera but she was only teaching me in manual mode, she is one that believes that is the best way to learn. I was trying to use some of the other features and was having a tough time cause I really didn't understand them until you said a few simple things that made it more clearer to me. I will be experimenting with A priority and TV priority more now. Thanks.
Watching this video that was made 7yrs ago has helped me sooooo much! Ive been doing photography for about a year now and only shoot whenever i have family events. This really helped me understand the depth of field playing around with the Fstop on my lenses.. for sure earned a sub! Will be cheking out more vids from you guys!
Great video on the "basics" but still very important. I have a Nikon, but not a D750. Some of your tips and secrets to do with aperture, really caught me by surprise..thank you for sharing such great information.
Luis' Tuber Channel They arnt secrets , it's the basics of photography
Watching it in 2019, nice explanation, thanks!
I got a D3200 with the telephoto set for $390. I'd say that was a pretty good deal.
+LazerLord10 i got a t5 for 45$, id say i win
Kingdom Of Mog
Yeah, I guess so.
Used or new?
***** used but not abused
Kingdom Of Mog
The best way to purchase!
I was looking for a used T2i or T3i on ebay, and they were almost the same price as this combo I found. two VR lenses along with the 24MP goodness was too good to pass up.
same here I use D3200 pretty decent check out my clicks instagram @fernandeshane
Man y’all made this so easy to understand I’ve been reading books and they don’t even explain it this well. Thank you!!
Finally I came to know what F stops are. Thank you. ISO, Aperture and Shutter Speed very well explained. I will remember always.
keep making videos like these.
great tutorial. Covered the basics perfectly.
Honestly. Everytime u speak I'm thinking of Seth Rogen 😂
Exactly hahaha
One of the first videos I watched when I bought my DSLR. Good stuff.
4:48 thank you thank you for explaining this. very important information when you're really trying to figure this stuff out. more specifically, on my camera and maybe all others when i turn my dial right or "up" to increase the aperature number I incorrectly assumed the iris was widening. eventually i learned that the greater the aperture value the more closed the iris became. and this kind of messed with my mind for a while because one might have thought as i had that a larger value would equate to a larger iris. alas, as you have just explained where many other youtuber/tech info channels did not, that the smaller value equates to the distance between iris rim and the cylinder of the lens. aha! i'm frustrated because so many videos are only explaining the superficial function of ISO, aperture, and f/stop. grrr. there are a handful of nuanced technicalities that need to be understood before one can really manipulate the exposure trinity to their advantage.
"You wont be looking at the background unless you're on acid!" LOL hahahaha thats a win!
Very helpful!
Just picked up a Canon T6 Rebel and took a few pictures of FOOD! Hehehe!! Thanks guys
This video is Amazing. This is my FIRST professional camera (Nikon D5600) I know Nothing about photography. I learned more in this video than in my photography class in college back in 2004 and in 2 one hour and one 45 min vid combined. I finally understand ISO, Aperture, and shutter speed.
I picked up my camera after it sat in the closet for a year. I felt like an Alzheimers😢 patient asking my son for my son. I just don't remember anything. But now, just halfway through your video and I feel better than before!! 🎉❤Thank you. I
If you could ever read did this. I just want to ask. @6:47 the photo seems to like a really really good photo. I just want to ask the settings you put before you shoot. And did you play with the color by using photoshop? or it's just one of the benefits of having a good lens? Because the color was superb. I'm new to photography and would like to take some good photos. I would appreciate if you could put some info. Great vid! Subbed!
Still useful in 2019, thanks boyz
Best video ever!!! Thanks guys!!! Subscribed~
I already knew about cameras but I dont know how to explain much very well. I showed my brother this because he has just bought a canon t5i and he said that this is one of the best videos that he has found yet and even I have learned a little from this as well. Keep up the work.
This is by far the most helpful video I’ve watched on the explanation of photography. You guys rock!
are you cosplaying with that leather gauntlet ?
+Villeum I wear that more often than not when it's cool out, but not cold enough for a jacket.
+Tek Syndicate The DR isn't very good on it. Better hit up a forge to upgrade it if you can.
+Tek Syndicate where did you get them from????
+Tek Syndicate good video logan. I didnt know shit all about photography
+Tek Syndicate then wear a long sleeve shirt like a normal person fucking weirdo.
Sony A7s mate
+MartGameFails A7s II.
+kingalias thats the one I meant
+MartGameFails This is a beginner video and you're boasting Ferraris to student drivers.
Start with cheap entry DSLRs and abuse the shit out of it before you commit to a good one. My first one was a T3 I got for under $200 factory refurbished years ago and it's still great with a cheap 50mm 1.8. I lend it to interested friends who come with me to shoot on hikes. It's what and how you're shooting for the most part not what you're using.
I saw this one girl on vacation shoot a Mark 5D on auto mode against the sun breaks my broke ass heart.
didnt know $crim knew so much about photography
watched this the first time when i was thinking about upgrading from my phone to a dslr. i wanted to know the basics first before i bought a camera. now, i’m rewatching again because i just bought my first dslr. after a year of watching tutorials and everything else about/related to photography, i’m ready to step into this art form. thank you for this great video guys!!!!
Finally, a video that explains it clearly including what to set first and why. I even understand depth of field now. THANK YOU!
My iPhone has f2.2, and objects in the background are fairly visible and sharp. Shouldn't they be all blurry with such a low f stop?
Tuomas Rahikka look at the size of the lens though, there is only so much it can do, try putting the greatest distance between the subject and the background, also zooming in to get closer to the subject can help
Depth of field is NOT ONLY controlled by f-stop (aperture). It is also a function of focal length and camera-to-subject distance. Where your iPhone's tiny lens is limited is in the focal length area.

I thought that line along the shot of the crab was hilarious too lol
"Unless your on acid" 🤣🤣🤣
This is brilliant. I'm currently doing the professional photography course and this has helped me to confirm that I understand the course material correctly.
Phenomenal job explaining this stuff on basic terms so newbies can understand it. I've watched multiple other video and yours was by far the easiest to comprehend.
