@Kairo Ahmed -- VERY COOL! In less than 15 minutes you committed a felony and came here to tell the world about it. Smooth!
I learned more in 12 minutes than I care to admit. Thank you.
Thanks for watching.
Slow learner....!!!
I love how pi uses a consumer dslr for these videos. just show's it's not always about the equipment! love it!!!
You took the words out of my mouth. I love seeing beginner videos using something other than a 5D mark III or higher with a $2000 lens.
Old Technique:
-Spot meter on the mid tone
-Set Focus on the eye
-Recompose
-Take the shot
New Technique:
-Let the camera do the job.
-Take the shot.
From an amateur, best video I've watched on metering yet. Thank you!
Thank you for explaining the varying select area and defining that the choice is proprietary. This explains the different photos when I shoot with other brand names DLSRs.
This guy is fantastic at explaining tutorials!
Nice video. Some people were made to teach.
I have not pay attention to metering before but I am now interested to learn this settings in my camera.
EXTREMELY GOOD info. I always find myself in AV mode w/Evaluative based on the assisted description the camera gives me which is "Good for most scenes" argh! But then when I look at my photos later I see that most of them are over exposed.. I'll try to get in the habit of spot or center weighted.. I'll be practicing tomorrow!
I've been wondering about this for awhile but none of my go to accounts have every explained it, seems to be something left out of the mainstream tutorials! Thank you so much and definitely will recommend this video to others!
Legend has it Whitney is still standing there, staring into everyone's soul as they look at her from afar.
😊🤦🏽♂️
This guy is great at teaching, making things easy to understand.
I watched so many videos to understand metering modes from around the world but Pi u always make things super easy for us , this is the best explanation on metering modes
Why cant our teachers be like him..he's so good at explaining
He's more motivated.
I never paid attention to my metering setting on my camera because I didn't think it was important. I was so ignorant. Wow! Thank you so much for this. It has made me more aware and considerate on another important setting when taking my pictures
I've watched quite a few metering videos, yours explained well with demonstration, exactly what I was looking for, Thank you!!
By far one of the best tutorials I've ever seen. You smashed it out of the park. Thank you!
The very best explanations on metering. Not boring.
Thanks for all the tips. Ive mostly always used spot metering but it makes sense to use Centre weighted especially in aperture priority.
Loved this lesson big time. Thank you so much.
Perfect and clear answer and examples of metering, just what I was looking for, thanks!
I am just starting to play with the different modes for metering, and already I can see the differences, so this has been a good learning experience for me
This was the best video so far.
Great video. I'm fairly new to photography and I have watched a few others on metering and they didn't really show good examples of the differences in metering modes. I really enjoyed this one and am looking forward to watching more videos from you.
This video was super helpful! I just got my lighting kit for school and have never seen or used my lighting meter.Thanks
I have been looking for a video to explain metering modes. Thank you so much for the information. I learned a lot.
An exceptionally informative video also in the sense that it was presented in a clear, comprehensible way. Thank You for Posting!
Great video! This was perfect in demonstrating the types of metering the camera is capable of, thank you.
Thank you Pi, This video on metering makes sense and is broadening my knowledge of proper exposure.
Best video on metering I've seen! Great teaching.
Great info. Thanks a million. Never really understood metering until now. Off to practice now!
Awesome info. I'm definitely going to start using the metering modes more often.
I disagree with writing off evaluative/matrix metering. Center weighted is weighted for the center of the frame. so if you follow the rule of thirds then that generally does you no good either. evaluative is what i use mostly and i utilize exposure compensation to adjust if needed. it keeps things consistent unlike spot metering. Shoot in raw and slightly under expose skin so you don't get any blown out highlights in the face.
I vote Pye for president. You're the man! Great video.
Very nice video, simple and easy to understand! Thumbs up!
Thank God there's TH-cam. and thank you Pi! This was really helpful.
Excellent explanations...Thankyou for your time...
I evaluate this video as being on spot and central to my growth. Thanks.
That what extremely informative, I learned a lot! Thanks!
Great tutorial, thank you so much for this video.
What a tease! You got me hooked!
wow! a mine field so well explained thanks so much, a lot more understanding on metering now. thiis is one of the first videos of yours i have watched i will be watching heaps more now thanks a bunch
I got alot from watching this video: excellent skills in communicating what metering is. Thanks!
You've got some amazing people who are willing to contribute to help make this tutorial possible. For my brother, when he fails on helping me film with the first shot he just walks away and be a big baby.
This was so well explained, thank you!
Very nice vid! Thank you for this!
TLDW? For portraits, use center weight if on the go (eg. spontaneous photo shoots), and use spot metering for controlled situations (ex. controlled/static photo shoots).
Thank you! It's really helpful to me.
That was very informative. I got what I exactly wanted to know. Thanks buddy...
great video,.........thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you!!! Finally a real explanation.
great tutorial.well explained.thumbs up
I learn many things from you. you are really professional in teaching. Great video keep it up sir
Great explanation Pi! Thanks!
Thank you so much! I needed this!
Thanks to you, I understood something really complicated.
Omg best explanation l have found. Thank you!
Congratulations. You explained very well.
This dude's voice is really good for video. Good Info, glad I watched
Nicely explained, Billy Zane !
Amazing explanation, thank you
That's what i was looking for, thanks a lot!
That was an excellent tutorial! Thanks
Agust 2019 i watch this and saved my colors my carier thank u 🙏
THANK YOU that made a huge difference
Thanks, I understand it now. I was at a complete loss until I watched this video 👍👍
Right at the end of the video you mentioned to bring in the fill light after spot metering her skin. Do you recommend metering before the fill light or should you meter once the fill light is on her face? I'm assuming the way you did it was correct but wasn't sure if it made a difference. Excellent video, btw! That answered so many of my metering questions, particularly about where the meter reads and if you can move it. Thank you and I hope you're able to answer my question above.
thanks for this amazing tutorial
Your voice is frigging amazing.
Great tutorial....
This video is very helpful!
Very well explained.
Wish I have seen this video before. Thanks!
Very helpful thanks
Great explanation
Amazing tutorial
I bring a grey card, reflect my light source off of it, and spot meter on that- or use a phone light meter app and point it at the grey card in the same condition. For switching between digital and film, so far that's worked for me. It just sucks in situations where light changes fast. :)
Thank you sir for this video i will try this trick... 😊
super Helpful. Thanks
very helpful. Thanks
Your audio is great! What brand lav mic we're you using?
I fell in love with the model girl! Thank you for the video :)
nice as always
Really GREAT VIDEO!I couldn't get how I'll be sure that my photo is in correct exposure or everything else is not blown out or underexposed when the metering shows me underexposed or overexposed?Thanks a lot.
Really helpful!
So if i am spot metering off someones light skin my process would be meter (+1 exposure), focus, then compose?
thanks great explanation
Great post
So helpful
Great info
Thank you!
Wow! Amazing audio! What system are you using?
thanks great explanination
hi, so basically for portraits center-weighted metering looks ideal choice? thank you.
What lapel mic are you using? Sounds awesome.
Awesome video...
Thanks brotha!
i thought i was getting better, and then bam! things became more complicated BUT this is a big help
Thanks for explaining! Now I'm more clever :)
Thanks a lot!
