Aperture Priority - EASIER Than Manual Mode!
#aperturepriority #apertureprioritymode #aperturemode
In this video, I show you what aperture priority mode is and how it's sometimes better and easier than manual mode, especially for beginners! We talk about camera settings and how to use exposure compensation, as well as a few other photography tricks. This aperture priority tutorial will help you understand aperture mode vs manual mode and the right way to use aperture priority mode, no matter what the situation!

James, I really liked this video and got a lot out of it. I did, however, think that there were 2 things that you could have at least mentioned in the landscape portion. Those would be that when using a tripod turn Steady Shot off and when using such a slow shutter speed to use a wired or wireless remote or a 2 second timer to reduce camera shake. I realize that these points are not part of the main story (Aperture Priority), but could have been mentioned in a second or 2. But, other than that, great info!

First I want to say, Thank You! Your video was very informative and easy to fallow. I only have one question about your f4 & f2.8 suggestions for your portraits. I know that getting good Bokeh outdoors is one good reason for shooting wide open with portraits, but was there any other reason? In the past, I have had a Love / Hate relationship with shallow depth of field. My Nikon D850's autofocus is "hit or mis" with shallow depth of field in studio. Outdoors, no problem. Sometimes my modeling Lights aren't bright enough for my Autofocus. For portraits in the studio, I have had to mark the floor for my subjects and have them sit for careful focusing and keep my studio ambient lights bright while my ISO is low in order to keep my cameras autofocus working consistently. So I end up shooting f5.6 - f11

Hey Mikey. Thanks so much, man! Great question, and sure Aperture Priority works just fine with a manual lens. In fact it makes it easier on you, as you set your aperture and the camera takes care of the exposure for you. Then you can turn your attention to focusing well. Make sense? That G85 is an awesome camera, especially for video! You will love it!

I noticed during the portrait portion, as you moved the camera around from light to dark areas your shuttle speed stayed constant at 1/125. The challenge for me in Aperture priority has been the constantly changing shutter speed. Is there some specific setting that locks the shutter speed in? I set my iso min ss and all yet my ss is all over the map usually too low to freeze slight movements or compensate for shake common in portrait/wedding/event work. Thanks for the vid.🙏🏾💪🏾

Hello. I’ve been doing a lot of photography over the years. And since I don’t do it frequently I forget a lot of the settings. And now w those new camera like my Sony A7rlll so complicated. If you don’t practice a lot. I also do a lot in manual but now moving more to street photography. I’m trying to figure out best setting. I will try your technique of a priority. F4 speed to 125. Since hand held and auto iso. Will see. Any other tip for street p..? Thanks John

Is there a specific metering I should use when doing street photography and for wedding types of photos?

I have been shooting with a 35mm Olympus since the late seventies and when I look at those photos I wonder how much better they could have been had I understood all of the camera's settings and functions. Anyway, I am currently experiencing cognitive issues so getting into the photography world as if I have never used a camera before is extremely frustrating and a serious challenge. I will watch a video and five minutes later I won't be able to recall anything I saw or heard. I have dyscalculia also so anything involving numbers is nearly impossible for me to retain. These videos help a lot, I think. LOL So thank you! Gonna sub-distillate!

See I was already using manual but had never used aperture priority or shutter priority and I found I was missing shots sometimes especially in faster moving subjects or fleeting moments so I wanted to learn more about it...

I've got a point shoot Nikon , P100.. basic. I like A mode, staring out hand held street landscape (trees buildings, sidewalks etc) and some street "moments" photography. however the bright sky in California seems to blowout (above the horizon). Sky too light, shadows too dark. do I need to move up to an DSLR to correct this?
