A tip that works for a lot of nature photographers who have software and do post-processing is to intentionally underexpose any photo by 0.3-1 stops, or just turn it down to get rid off all zebras. Modern processing softwares will always let you selectively pull up just the subject from the dark while leaving the background untouched. That has helped me get so many great shot where a sky or some nature in the background gave the photo the needed vibe.

Nice discussion. Evaluative 95% of the time for me. In when in doubt, that is what you will use because you want to preserve your highlights most of the time. With strong backlighting, use post. In difficult situation, take a look at the histogram. The great thing about photography is that you can then rebalance the photo in post because you know the histogram tells you that you have everything you need.

I just found your channel a few days ago and I'm so glad I did. I appreciate many photographers on KZfaq but most talk fast and assume we all know what they're talking about. Knowing what's on my camera is different from truly understanding how to use all the features. I'm retired and hike almost daily with my camera (yes, I'm old and learned on a Canon SLR). I am already seeing a difference in the way I think and look at a scene. Today, I'm putting a longer lens on my camera (an exercise you suggested in another video) to try wildlife photography. I'm slowly working my way through your fantastic, informative videos. Thank you!!!!

Simon: I have been shooting for years (used to develop my own black and white!), and have recently upgraded from a Canon 5D MK III to an R5, so I'm taking some time to really remind myself how to shoot and relearn how to do things with a mirrorless, and much more powerful, camera. Your lessons are as useful as the classes I took in high school years and years ago and you never fail to hit every point. THANK YOU - this channel is seriously unmatched. I'm excited to get this R5 into action - it feels like having mind control compared to the 5DIII

Also, of course reading and adjusting the meter to highlight, decrease or blow out things you've made the decision on. I guess it will be a while before we can attain perfection with all these great camera settings. The challenges are all what makes photography fun! Thanks Simon.

Best channel on KZfaq, explained in layman terms that even a novice can take something from and apply with confidence. Myself, I’ve struggled getting the best balance for my camera and often find myself making erratic changes to settings whilst on the go, sometimes guessing. Problem is, by the time you’ve got the setting the subject matter has moved. Really understanding my camera a lot more and enjoying the outcome far more. Thank you for this channel, it’s what I’ve been searching for, for sometime now👍

Good tip on metering when using a camera on MANUAL mode. As, you said, by setting the METER mode to spot and point it at a neutral color of the scene that is close to medium grey, then move the COMPENSATION scale to 0, re-compose and take the picture. Another lesson learned from you. Thank you! By the way, you got me leaving my setting on my ISO, to AUTO ISO. Another lesson learned from you. Thank you!

A massive thanks to you for always being informative and interesting! I struggle a bit since leaving my older bodies and now using only full-frame capabilities of the 1DX Mark III - the settings are there and the capacity is there, but I'm overwhelmed and take too much time finding what is the best for what I do. In the end I come out with fewer keepers or much more post-processing to fix/rescue. Your videos are god sent to get me focusing on one part at a time. I will get there (stubborn), just need to get the time to shoot more and get over the quality slump and into the progress slope.

@@Twobarpsi "...but it does not change ISO, aperture or shutter speed in manual mode..." No, you do! The correct exposure is the correct exposure is the correct exposure! Doesn't matter how you get there! In full manual you still look at the meter and adjust from there based on your experience and what your artistic intent is. In aperture priority, shutter priority or another semi automatic mode, you do the same. You look at what the meter is telling you and adjust (using exposure compensation) based on your experience and artistic intent. No difference. The correct exposure is the same regardless. In manual, you can't just magically tell the camera you want this aperture, this shutter speed and this ISO if that combination doesn't result in a correct exposure ( based on your artistic intent). Something has to be a compromise, just as in any other mode.

Thank you for such an informative video explanation. I am a novice photographer with a Sony a7iii and find your videos SO helpful. Everything is explained in a way that beginners like me can understand and for that I am grateful!

Thank you, really simply explained. I never knew about the 18% grey thing, that really helps me understand what the camera is doing.

This was extremely helpful as after 10 or so years of photography I’ve not really used exposure compensation - I’ve learned a lot!

Great and best ever explanation. I have never got it finally, but now it is crisp and clear. Very helpful was the door vs. printer side by side view. Thanks very much for sharing your wealth experience

Very nice and clean video. As someone who always shot manually, very rare in aperture priority, I never faced those choice issues. But I've seen some of my friends working in wedding photography especially, struggle so hard. Shooting a white wedding dress in middle of a dark church is a recipe for disaster if you don't know all of those things and you're not shooting in manual. I do like auto Iso nowadays though, especially when I have to track the subject through shadows and highlights etc and this always comes in handy

Manual with auto ISO is my most used setup. Agree!
