  • Uncle and I fuss and fight over the crappiest landscape photo you've ever seen. But we do learn a couple of things about the Nikon D850 :)

    You could always set up back button focus, then when you use autofocus it stays locked when you take your image until you press the bbf again

    Great fun! I've got mine setup for back button focus, if I auto-focus then forget to switch over to manual the focus still stays where I put it. Also less likely to damage anything by forgetting to turn auto off on the camera body when using some screw drive lenses.

  • @martincutrone5816
    @martincutrone5816 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Programming your AE-L/AF-L button to back button focus, and the OK button to toggle in and out of 100% mag simplifies life for those of us with subpar eyes and therefore use autofocus. With the high quality screen of the D750, like the 850, I've become a Live View believer for landscape imaging. Thank you for my weekly or twice weekly dose of photo laughs, you guys are fun!

    Lol you guys are hilarious together. Poor uncle grumpy looking nervously protective of his precious. I use a Canon, I always thought that the mirror was locked up when live mode was off and so it clicks real fast and doesn't shake while taking the shot. Whereas if my live view was on and I took the shot it would take it slower. Very funny and informative, thank you. 😊

    Hilarious, the Abbot and Costello of YT photography! I also shoot with a D850 and just started using the L1 ISO setting (which I believe is meant to indicate 1 stop lower sensor gain than the 64. The camera also has a L.7 and L.3. If I forget my remote release, I set the self timer to 10 sec to let the tripod settle down. Thanks for the belly laugh and some good information in the process. Cheers from BC

  • @Topsyrm
    @Topsyrm 5 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    My understanding waas that the best quality was from the native ISO which on the D850 is 64, Li is an electronically adjusted ISO same as 100 etc.

  • @ApexMoto

    Live View + QC + silent view mode 1 is the best settings for the d850 when shooting landscapes. Luv my d850 and if you ever get the chance try the irix lens range.

  • @redhed1713
    @redhed1713 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video. Keep up the good work chaps. :-)
    Just a couple of things though. I think it has been said below, but the lowest numbered ISO in all cameras are normally where the highest quality for noise and dynamic range are, though the D850 seems to have pretty similar DR on the 'Lo' settings to ISO 64.
    The timer should be able to be set to 10 seconds in the menu if that is preferable. And I would always use a remote above the Timer if I have it with me. :-)
    The camera should be more accurate to focus in Liveview as it is using the contrast detection, which though slower to focus, is more accurate. It is normally better than my old eyes. I always magnify the area of focus to fill the the LCD. The focus point fills the whole screen, and I either touch to focus or use the AF On button and it is a bit easier to see that is has got it right by the box turning green, and the scene hopefully looking sharp. ;-) lol

    I have the D850 and have always used ISO 64 but now you’ve got me curious about the Lo setting. I will experiment with it next time out. I have the same problem with camera shake on my Sirui tripod even with the delay set to 5 seconds. I got a RRS tvc33 tripod and no camera shake but it is a monster to carry. I now use the remote on the Sirui.

    Great video Gavin, I would love to see this location with flowing water, it must be impressive. It was fascinating to see and hear you two chat about the D850. There were some interesting points you raised. With my D850, I have back button focusing set up so I can use both approaches (manual and autofocus) without the need to switch a dial and I have the back dial set to punch in to check focus. I believe 64 is the lowest native ISO for the sensor, 'L' or low uses software to simulate a lower ISO however you may lose some dynamic range, which with the image you took, probably didn't matter. Thanks for sharing!

    ISO L1 without focus peaking, while using auto focus with back button focus gives me the sharpest, images with less noise in my D850 as well. I love my D850 and I was excited about the focus peaking function but I found it to be far less than optimal.

  • @davidblackley7590
    @davidblackley7590 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Gavin, I find if I want the sharpest from the D850 is to set the live view to silent mode 1. It then records right from the sensor with no moving parts, shutter or mirror. Since it records line by line if you are taking a picture of a spinning propeller it can warp the blade on the image. I don't know about the Canadian Rockies but the Rockies here in Colorado sit pretty still so that is not a problem. (Live view ON-press the i-set SL to 1-using the selector and button above.) I use the self timer at 5s and that seems give it time to settle.
    PS if you set the # of shots under self timer to 2 it will take all of a bracket of shots 3,5,7 or what ever. so one press and all sots of the bracket are taken. I use these settings a bunch and they seem to get those Juicy shots the most.

    @nigelmorley8092 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Funny stuff from 'The Tetley Twins" as always Gavin...without trying to sound too much like a geeky nerd ! (but I do have a Nikon D810) you can tell Dr Grumps that he can easily change his shutter delay time to 5, 10 or 20 seconds in the Custom Settings menu under Timers/Self Timer ..and I have found the same on my 70-200mm f2.8 that 2 secs often not enough..I use 5 secs and that seems to work but if he also uses Live View zoomed in when he's shooting slow exposures you can see the vibration slow (and of course that bloody great hefty mirror is taken out of the equation) and then press the shutter which together with it's 5 sec delay is usually sufficient to prevent tears before bedtime !! ...unless its windy of course in which case you just give up and use your iPhone !! I could go Ubernerd on the native iso64 vs L0.3/7/1 etc but my understanding is that the "L's" basically just expose to the right more etc then drag it back in camera but I see BisonFlyer24 below has answered it ...BTW did you notice Gavin that despite ALL that live viewing and general fannying around there was LOADS of battery life left !!?? just saying !
