Thank you, I’ve read this multiple times thinking i understand it and nope like everything else that is part of learning it needs constant reinforcement (i am clearly a newbie)
Hello, at this time i think it’s just the settings on my camera, I’ve learnt that setting everything to auto doesn’t mean you’re now letting the camera think for itself 😊
Great write up! One correction: In the aperture section you have “A simple rule of ISO is: Bigger number = More in focus”. Change “ISO” to “aperture” 😁
Setting aside the technical bits, the beauty of mirrorless cameras is the ability for a new photographer to fiddle with the settings and immediately see the changes. This makes it so much easier to learn than on a DSLR where it’s the “shoot / peek” game as you change the settings.
If timing is not an issue, then another learning tip is to make wild changes to individual settings to make it easier to see what the settings impact. Minor changes can be difficult to detect, so swinging from 1/1000s to 1/10s or f4 to f22 and seeing how the image preview changes helps solidify what each setting does.
From there you adjust settings together to pin down the nuances in the relationship in the exposure triangle.
“how it opens like an asshole” - most of the time I’m f/22 but after Chipotle I’m 0.95 😂😂😂😂
Ayo!!! LMFAO!

Thanks for taking the time to comment. What are the big things you are struggling with?

Sure doesn't. Manual is the way to go. Take your time and put aside some practice time everyday.

Bro, thank you being the one person out of hella people that opened this, that caught that and actually said something!
Also great observations and advice to others. Appreciate you taking the time!
