thanks a lot guys..


thanks!


What is the most important Value should be start to modify for best stop
is it shutter than aperture than ISO , or there’s no different.

and thx for the nice lesson .


Mark, you did an absolutely fantastic job explaining the nuances of f-stops!

Keep up this phenomenal service to the larger photographic ’society’; much appreciated!


@dingo27mobile In “M” mode you don’t have EV +/- because you are changing the exposure yourself. In TV, AV, P you can use the EV +/- to adjust “stops” and the camera will do it for you. i’m a Canon guy, but it’s the same principle. Hope that helped.


For every one confused, I strongly recommend the Book Understanding Exposure by Brian Peterson. Mark did an excellent job explaining but this book helped me a lot to understand the photographic triangle.


hey mark.. this video was very much informative.. but i am still confused.. i have the same question as dingo27mobile.. a bit more explanation might be useful. thnks.. and of course, ur videos are gr8..


that’s perhaps the best explanation that I’ve ever seen about stops, Very well done Mark!


Are those stops exposure corrections, or is it something different? And you were shooting in full manual mode, right ? (M on big tv :)
