Totally flawed and almost useless comparison. I'm a fan of both applications as they have their positives and negatives but the whole issue around interpretation via profiles in lightroom make is kinda worthless comparison.

Excellent photos and explanation!

Thanks Dan!!

Very helpful for anyone new to the principles of light and photography. The props help tremendously! I always have a polarizer with me “just in case”, as the use of a polarizer when you wouldn’t normally think of doing so is a fantastic tool for improving images.. subtly or dramatically.

Fab content Dan, thank you.

In this video I am going to show you how you can use a polarizer filter to take your photography to the next level! A polarizer filter is essential for getting the most out of your photography. It allows you to get rid of all of the unwanted polarized light that can sometimes make your photographs dull and lifeless. In fact, a polarizer is one of the biggest secrets that professional photographers use to make their photographs stand out from others. By reducing glare and reflections from surfaces like water, glass, and even foliage, a polarizer can help you capture vibrant, richly colored images with deeper contrast. This is particularly useful for landscape photography, where managing reflections and enhancing the colors of the sky and foliage can dramatically improve your shots. In this video, I'll guide you through the science behind polarizers, how they work, and the best scenarios to use them. Whether you're shooting in bright sunlight, near reflective surfaces, or aiming to bring out the vivid blues in the sky, understanding how to use a polarizer effectively will transform your photography. Watch till the end for tips on choosing the right polarizer for your camera and how to properly adjust it to achieve the best results.

where is the focus point ? Capture one has it?

Excellent, Dan! This was clear, well presented, and facilitative on all levels. Keep them coming. Thank you.

I just bought another 5D MKII. I bought my first one last year. I had the budget to buy the R5, but didn't need all of that technology, or video capabilities. The only advantage mirrorless has over DSLR, is the great focusing system. That is the one thing a DSLR lacks, but there are ways around this limitation.

I am an amateur with a small online shop. When I first started, I had no idea how to take pictures for products, especially on a white background and I had no money to invest in cameras lenses, and lights....Now, I am a bit more experienced, I do have many studio lights, software, and studio devices, but for some reason, my old starter camera (a very simple Nikon, d3300), which was entry-level at that time, is still serving me well. I took almost 100k pictures with it. I have a few Nikorr lenses and I was waiting to buy a new camera. But because a few years ago mirrorless systems were not that good, I decided to just wait and see. Now I am still undecided. Also, I do not plan to pay more than 1.5 k Euro for a body camera. My small online business is not that demanding and the pictures I am making a good enough. I think that we must not always aim for the top of the lines, but instead buy something that is good enough for the job, not very expensive, and most of all reliable. My poor Nikon was never repaired, I just cleaned it a few times and this is it. Also, I see that phone cameras are better and better, and considering the job I need to do I do not think that I will even need an expensive camera. I also do not like small cameras. I used to have all kinds of Fuji, Olympus, and Panasonic....so, I prefer a medium size camera that fits well in my hand. Thank you for your video.

Thank you, for your knowledge Sir.

Finally, a professional who talks the truth, unbiased by "sponsors".

👍In today’s video I am going to try to answer a photography question that gets asked all the time. Which camera system is better? DSLR cameras or Mirrorless cameras. The truth is that both of these systems are more similar than people think. However, there are some very important differences that can make one camera system better than the other depending on what you want to use it for. In this video, I am going to give you a different perspective. I am going to give you my recommendation from a professional photographers point of view. The reason I’m doing this is because the features that are important to an enthusiast may not be as important to a professional photographer. So let’s dive into the differences between the two systems and see how it affects your photography. Hopefully, by the end of this video you’re going to know exactly what type of camera you need because we’re going to go through each component and discuss the differences that can make one system better than the other. I am making this video so that hopefully it’s something that will help you make an informed decision when trying to decide which type of camera you need. I am also interested to know if you agree with the opinions I present in this video.

Thank you for this really useful video!

If you do not want your photos in your computer, can you have them go to a hard drive instead?

Short and to the point, nicely done

A very underrated video! This is some great info that I needed for my in-home studio. Thanks so much for this!

C1 for the win as usual!

Dan, thank you so much. You help me !!!

how to see full verticle pic in live in lightroom classic in tethering? It does not show full verticle frame for composing

Very informative.... Thank you so much

Thank you

Great video. Since you asked, I'd love to see more videos on how to turn this into a full-time business. Thanks and once again, great video!

This is a really good video. Thank you very much. I know making videos is not easy.

compact and direct to the point. thanks.

Very interesting program!

I guess to get a balance in between for true middle grey with the grey card then you would lay it flat on your table and get a reading from above. If the range is outside both sides of the Instagram then you would need to exposure blend

Many thanks…answered my question for quick release plate for my SP150-600mm

@DanCantero This video is seriously outdated and, as a consequence, gives incorrect and misleading information. In any case, it's not so much about tethering but rather about editing in Capture One. Moreover, there are claims and suggestions that are just plain wrong. Most importantly, @0:38, the presenter immediately prefaces the whole tutorial by stating that Capture One does things "a little bit differently" to LightRoom, namely that Capture One does NOT save the captured image to your in-camera card, only directly to your computer. This is, of course, nonsense in terms of the current software. For a Sony A7R5 camera at least, I can confirm from personal experience that Version 16.4.3 (downloaded 24/6/2024) has a number of options as to where the image is transferred and stored: 1] RAW------------------to Capture One (as directed by software options on computer) 2] RAW------------------to Capture One---------------RAW to card 3] JPEG-----------------to Capture One---------------RAW to card 4]JPEG------------------to Capture One-------------JPEG to card Transfers of RAW files to the screen can take marginally longer than JPEGs of course (1.5--2.5 seconds perhaps, depending on your equipment). For all practical purposes, JPEGs will appear instantaneously on your screen. How long RAW files take to get to the card depends on its type and how fast your card writes. The speed to card becomes more or less irrelevant if you use the Capture One screen mainly to check focus, exposure, and compositional structure rather than perform any kind of complex editing during a shoot. And one more small thing which arises from Dan Contero's commentary: You CAN use adapters, such as those for changing a USB-C plug on the tethering cable so that it fits into an older USB-A receptor on your laptop or PC. The trick is to make sure your adapter is rated to carry the data at the same or higher rate as the cable, in the case of TetherTools, generally "up to 10Gbps". I am using 10Gbps plug adapters (cheaply obtained on Amazon) as I write this to capture a screen shot of Dan to my computer using Capture One. And just to confirm, I can see the RAW file on my camera as well as I have elected to happen in the software. And I think the statement that "ANY" USB cable is ok is questionable to say the least. It's generally recommended that USB charging be turned off during tethering. In any case, tethering cables need to be able to carry data. A dedicated charging cable does not allow this. There are cables that carry charge and data which might be suitable but since charging should be off, these are unnecessary. Whatever cable is used, it must be rated from 5-10Gbps. Now, I don't care what LR does or does not do, especially given the recent issues with Adobe software terms and conditions maladministration, but if you want a program to do any more than Capture One currently provides in relation to tethering then you might be asking too much!! I don't work for Capture One or any subsidiary, or any retailer of the software. I own a perpetually licensed copy and I'm happy to promote a product that ACTUALLY does raise your workflow game. Why this kind of outdated content is allowed to remain online purporting to be of use is beyond my comprehension. The take-away has to be: take care with who you choose to obtain your working information from!

Thank you for the useful video

Can someone explain to me why I cannot change either the shutter speed, the ISO or the F stop in the dialog box? Everything seems to be locked except for the shutter button. I have to change either one of these features on-camera. I am using Capture One 20 for Fuji. Thanks in advance.

What if I am using flash units and I have to lower my camera exposure settings and my live view will be very dark?

One trick that seems to work for me…using expensive 6x6 film is to put the grey card into the landscape a bit….then take a reading off it with my spotmeter . This gets okay results

Very simple and helpful tutorial. Thanks

Little Buddy stole the show!

Greetings Dan from your newest subscriber! Excellent video and perfect timing for my pending decision. I shoot the Leica Q2 Monochrom exclusively as I'm a dedicated BNW Photographer. I've used Lightroom but since starting with the Q2M, I've learned that Capture One does a far better job with Dynamic Range and Tones of a Leica Monochrome DNG file then Lightroom. Now with Adobe's latest BS ToS changes I'm thinking this is the time to leave Adobe for good and focus on getting the Capture One Pro "All In One" package so I can edit on my iPad Pro 12.9 as well as my MacBook Pro. Your insights and experience-based views would be greatly appreciated 🙏 🙏 😎 ‼️

WARNING!!!! Do NOT use these poles on anything but concrete!!! They are extremely powerful when you swing the lever to secure them in place, and will push through just about anything other than concrete... do not risk it in wooden, fibro, drywall etc etc. I have seen them even crack besser blocks. It is not worth the risk of damage.

I agree that these are very useful. I have 6 of these, 2 for holding backdrops, 2 for mounting my strip lights for rim lighting, however I do sometimes attach the rim lights to the ones holding the backdrops it just depends on the shoot and 2 for when I need something extra.

In this video, I'm going to show you a much better way to set up your lights without having to set up a light stand. The method I'm going to show you is ideal. If you work from a small photography studio or a home photography studio where isn't a lot of space. Light stands are great but they take up a lot of room in a photography studio so I’ve got another solution that works much better than using a normal photography light stand. Here is the gear I talk about in this video Variable Pole amzn.to/3Vi8og2 Extension arm amzn.to/4c0Rf1G Super clamp amzn.to/4aVYwyo Better still, I'm going to show you how mounting your lights this way. Get rid of not only the lights stands, also, all of the associated cables with it. If you follow the instructions that I'm gonna show you in this video, you are going to be able to claim back a large portion of your studio. The best thing about this method is that it doesn't cost a lot of money compared to the cost of a normal photography light stand.

2024 question. I have my old laptop with all my raws and edits stored on an external drive. 20,000 photos to be exact. But I'm trying to move my catalog to my brand new computer. Can I just move the catalog over without having to copy all 20k photos?

So, I assume the three lights on your subject are constant lights?

great video!

my slider is greyed out

It may have been a little bit different back hen you made this video but at least by today I hope you, and thousands of other 'photographers', LEARN . . . "Lightroom" doesn't have a 'catalog''. That beast belongs to LIGHTROOM CLASSIC!

but but but you DO need a cat ! ;) thanks for the nice video

Some how you are speaking my language, thanks for sharing!

Answers nothing

The interpretation of your raw file comes down to the used profile. I bet you did not pay attention in lightroom and just used Adobe standard or some similar garbage what most people do. I select my profile in camera and already fine tune my look there and then set lightroom to just take that over which is not possible in c1. So your whole comparison is nonsense. Please get familiar with setting the right profile settings in lightroom.

Great video, thanks!
