you’ve been asking us FOR THREE YEARS to make a video about what the best camera for a beginner is, and we’ve finally committed to a specific model. working on it today. it’ll be posted soon 👀

A great tip for all beginners: When you buy a new DSLR, buy BODY ONLY and rather invest in a prime lens (50mm 1.8G is very reasonable and versatile) but only opt for 24/35mm for crop sensors as the focal length will be 1.6x what you see. You will learn more about photography with a prime lens in one year than with a kit lens in two. Also since there is no optical zoom in prime lenses, so just use your legs. 😀

0:06 Switch to Manual mode (the M) 0:40 Exposure triangle (screenshot it) 0:45 ISO 1:47 SHUTTER SPEED 2:41 APERTURE 4:18 Metering for light 5:46 Putting this all in practice 6:35 Examples (F8 important) 7:32 Shutter examples (your not an idiot) 8:07 combining concepts 10:12 screen shot this!

Thanks so much for always adding value - no BS - your tips are really helping my channel's quality

I loved shooting in manual mode for a long time but now I shoot in aperture priority 75% of the time. Its best for everyone to start here then learn the other modes. Great video

Thanks so much for making this! I'm new to photography and I've just been clicking buttons and hoping for the best, so this really helps.

Y’all are the beat

Ive been busy with school for the past 2yrs and took a break from photography and now that school has ended it is time to start binge watching all your videos

This video actually showed me things I had been missing from my photography. Thanks you guys!

Thx added to watch later

I've been doing photography for 3 1/2 years now, so I didn't really need this... but still watched it cause I love you two🤗

Ive only had a camera for 10 days and ive barely used the other modes. id rather just struggle with manual for now, and im not really struggling its just slower lol. also insane the timing of this. I thought this was an old video

So simple but incredibly easy for beginners like myself to understand. Thank you! Looking forward to the next one

Thank you for a refresh to my memory :)

I have watched alot of video's on "How to shoot Manual" But this as matter of fact was the best and informative of em all love you guys keep up the good work ✌🏼

I searched so many videos abt the photography and photo editing this is one of best channel i seen so far, which recommended to so many frds. and ur videos are quite strait n simple , love it ......❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

you guys were more serious in this video than usual, still super helpful!

of all the youtube tutorials i watched over the years on manual mode, this is, by far, the one video that made the most sense to me! i'm excited to start shooting now!

Mango street saving the day of beginner photographers ✌✌😌

I don't know if it's because I have watched so many videos trying to understand manual mode, but this video helped me finally start understand it.

You guys are my FAVORITE YT couple!

I needed this video

Thank you so much! I’m currently learning how to use manual mode and this help tremendously! 🤸🏽‍♀️🤗

I've been shooting for years, but these kinds of videos are incredible as a resource for helping teach other people how to take awesome photos. Keep up the good work!

Rachel for some reason I love ur voice!

Even as someone who has the 1-year experience, I sometimes come back to videos like this, just for a quick refresh, as long tiring days sometimes just saps my memory. Can you guys do another video where you plan a shoot from start to finish, just a quick update would be nice, especially one for commercial work

You really nailed it with this one.

Thank you for this sharing.

Absolutely incredible video! I have already rewatched it a couple times. I am getting KZfaq Premium this is one of the videos I would rewatch when I want a quick refresher. Sometimes when I'm out shooting I forget things and wow this explained some things that I think about like when to adjust which setting on the exposure triangle. As for mode I always shoot Manual but it would be cool to see videos like this to explain Aperture and Shutter priority as well

Thank you, Mango Street, for everything you do! 🙏🤙

Great video! Makes shooting in manual feel less intimidating

after years of watching your videos I finally have a (borrowed) camera! I'm going to try and take some photos this weekend - yay! I've already done your skillshare course, so hopefully, it will be easy to plan and execute my ideas.

Awesome explanation! Super easy to understand!

This is so useful! I feel that nose focused picture so hard, I still struggle with getting crispy sharp focus on my photos, the struggle is real.

This was so helpful and simple. Thanks!!

Where was this when I started😭 Amazing video guys, this is perfect.

I appreciate this and you!! Despite watching other tutorials, I kept struggling with manual mode and ended up giving it a break. Now I'm gonna try again!

Nice clear and easy to follow instructions, that even I could understand.

This is very helpful. I've watched few videos like this but you guys explained everything so well. You made "manual mode" not as intimidating as it sound for beginners.

Great and easy to understand Manual Mode video! I normally shoot Manual indoors and Aperture Priority outdoors,,,it works for me!

Nicely done. I enjoyed your teaching style reinforced by actually demonstrating the techniques versus just talking about them Thank you

I ❤️ u guys

This video has helped me a lot!!! Thanks!!!

Excellent Video! Thanks!

A tip for everyone, new or veteran photographers. I have been taking photos for 8 years now. I began with a Sony Xperia L and moved on to a Canon 80D 4 years ago. Ok so, no matter how long you have known this. It's always good to go back to basics. Most of the time we miss the smallest details because we forget our foundation. So it's good to always to go BACK TO BASIC

I like sleeping in and I have chosen to stay subscribed. I also liked the video. What can I say? Rules are meant to be broken. Always so good at taking ideas and condensing them into interesting, helpful videos. Great work!

Nicely done!

This was a great explanation of the 3 settings. I need to do more shots in manuel mode

you are the best. thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. as time comes and i practice i'll transfer the knowledge i gained.

Dance moves at 5:58 lol. Thank you guys for this. I never realized the metering thing. Wow im still a knoob

Thank you, you really are great at explaining things that we can all understand.

Commenting to give you more algorithm juice. Thanks for the great videos, always.

Loved the video thank you for the advice !

Thank you for making such valuable videos I always learn lots from here -already subscribed both your other channels!

You guys are awesome!

you guys are great ! thank you for your help

Wow i literally needed this and you just posted it! Amazing. Thanks!!

You're so good!

Great stuff thanks!!!

Definitely needed this. Thank you!

Just for the record, I like sleeping in (although We Will Become Silhouettes is my real Postal Service jam), but I was already subscribed so I can live my truth.

Awesome tutorial Can the next video be about conceptualize a story telling photoshoot series

Very nice **In Borat's voice

Something nice

THANK YOU! 🌼

este canal Mango de la calle es muy bueno, me gusta

In lieu of discussing manual mode could you guys please do a video on how to use back button focus?

Awesome

Quality

Was an enthusiastic film amateur before digital took over. Life interrupted. My only digitals have been point-and-shoot or phone. Any suggestions where can learn more about ISO as it relates to digital? Also, I remember looking at early 10 megapixel cameras, But the color reproduction of the various Sensors seem to vary dramatically. Is that still true, all I see (on Utube) is discussion of features.

Nice

First, really nice explanation. It's just missing the aperture priority mode which is semi manual. At least for sony you have the ability to set a min shutter speed when reached it will start increase ISO. That's basically what you would do in manual mode. Manual mode is not very practical let's say in golden hours where the light condition is changing very fast. And if you want to intentionally shoot over or under exposed you can still do it with exposure compensation dial. I only shoot manual mode in indoor with strobes and light meter. Keep the good work

i watch your videos just for that sense of humour... 😅(PS: bought a new camera... will try your tips)

"Something nice" .thats what you told to comment in comment section. ❤

Yessssssssss!!

I like this Video👍

Thx

I’m constantly chasing my subject(s) with the focal point and missing moments. Is that normal to do or are there any tips on what to change on my camera

something nice

2:51 hey, that's my camera!

Something nice.

1/320nd was funny

When looking through the viewfinder on my film camera it has a light meter and an light to indicate if I should be using a higher or lower shutter speed. Is there something like this on canon digital DSLRs , there must be surely ?

Photography is a lot like learning to swim. You can learn all you want but you won’t know how to really do it yourself till you jump in and start splashing around.

I wish someone will give me camera for my birthday 😭🙏🙏🙏🙏

i wanna intern for you guys so bad

Guys, how can you be saying this? The shutter speed DECREASES for a sharper image!

Fort

Both of y'all look so sleepy. Go sleep!

Great job!
