It feels reassuring coming from you .. sometimes stuff like this the benefit of being reinforced by someone like you who’s opinion I greatly respect it’s all the better when I’m doing something in alignment with you
I am originally from northern NM. We had wonderful sunsets there. Now living in northeast OK where we also have some great sunsets and sunrises in the autumn months. Where are you located in this video?
Should I go for Sony a6400 or cannon 80d for about equal amounts of video and photography. I will be filming if we go on trips, or plane spotting, and I will be taking photos of planes, nature and cars, animals and portraits and sunsets
My question would be how to focus on the sky if I just can't focus because my camera doesn't understand where to focus should i find target nearest the sky and focus on him or I should go manual but then I can't understand if I'm focused because focus peaking also don't work in this situation
Thanks man, I'm glad it helped! If I'm not exposure bracketing, then I usually expose for the highlights, which will likely silhouette everything else.
If it's for stills, I usually leave it in auto WB, and then I'll go change it in post, because I don't always know what look or mood I'm going for until I start editing. If it's for timelapses then I usually set it to manual, but it just depends on what the scene looks like and what mood I want.
That all definitely depends on the situation. It just depends on your composition and how much you want in the shot. Filters are also very light dependant. Most people would use a square filter with a grad nd or something like that to help balance the exposure of the scene, or just exposure bracket and blend them in post if don't want the ground or subjects to be silhouetted. You would only be using round filters like nds if you want to slow the shutter speed or a cp to reduce glare of water or shiny surfaces.
Can you please consider smartphone photography alongside professional photography, so that people like me who owns smartphone only can get tips & tricks.

Your photos are brilliant
Great shot! Moving to New Mexico. You are a great teacher. No BS, you just keep it simple. Keep up the good work.
Hey thanks man, I really appreciate that! Also, welcome to the best state ever! :P
Couldn’t agree more about the agony of having not dialed in settings
Thanks for the tips Brent!
LMAO at tip one -- reset settings - has happened to me many times lol
I still do it all the time, lol.
@@BrentHall The struggle is real, lol.
I plead guilty as well.
That’s the fun stuff. Next, post processing those captures. Again, thanks for your presentation. 😀
Great tips! Came back to Santa Fe for a bit after being in VA for a few years. After quarantine I'll be out there capturing the sunsets I miss.
Thanks man! That's awesome that you get to come back to SF, it's one of my favorite places on earth! :P
Going to Iceland and other northern countries
Sun up 24/7 on horizon
Should be amazing to shoot
Oh nice, that'll be an amazing experience!

Idk, I've never used the Sony, though I've heard good things about it.
My question would be how to focus on the sky if I just can't focus because my camera doesn't understand where to focus should i find target nearest the sky and focus on him or I should go manual but then I can't understand if I'm focused because focus peaking also don't work in this situation
great video educational and easy to follow along. Do you underexpose when taking pics of the sunset?
Thanks man, I'm glad it helped! If I'm not exposure bracketing, then I usually expose for the highlights, which will likely silhouette everything else.
Great video, would you mind sharing what white balance you use for sunsets?
If it's for stills, I usually leave it in auto WB, and then I'll go change it in post, because I don't always know what look or mood I'm going for until I start editing. If it's for timelapses then I usually set it to manual, but it just depends on what the scene looks like and what mood I want.
Is a wide angle 35 mm prime lens suitable for a sunset shot? Also should I use a filter? I’m using a Nikon d3500
That all definitely depends on the situation. It just depends on your composition and how much you want in the shot. Filters are also very light dependant. Most people would use a square filter with a grad nd or something like that to help balance the exposure of the scene, or just exposure bracket and blend them in post if don't want the ground or subjects to be silhouetted.

Can you do long exposures on like a bridge camera like the nikon b700?
which Tripod do you used?
Súper simple and effective i am gonna use that F16 for sun star 🌟 thank you greetings from Chile...
You're welcome, I'm glad it helped!
