Top Comments of this video!! :3
ISO - Sensitivity to light.
- More ISO = more light (but also more grains and noise)
- outdoor - ISO100
- Shade - ISO200
- Indoor - ISO400-800
Aperture - Size of opening in the lens.
- smaller the number ππΌ bigger the hole (more light)
- CONTROLS DEPTH OF FIELD.
- smaller the f/stop lower the depth of field.
- Only one person - low f/stop (f/2)
- more person - f/3.5 f/4 etc.,
- For everything to be in focus (in landscape imgs) go to f/16 or f/20
Shutter speed - Amount of time the shutter is open.
- 1/100, 1/250, 1/8000 of a second etc.,
- slower shutter speed ππΌ 1", 2", 30" seconds.
- CONTROLS MOTION BLUR.
- Slow shutter speeds - used when on tripods.
- Faster shutter speed used for sports etc.
- For portrait - 1/250, 1/500 (ppl look sharp)
- slow shutter speed (1/100) Works best for low light situations as well.
- SLOW SHUTTER SPEED = MORE MOTION BLUR (More light)
- When subject is moving - 1/800
- FASTER SHUTTER SPEED = LESS MOTION BLUR.
Setting:
1. Set ISO first based on scene light (ISO100 OR 200 for outdoors)
2. Decide how much depth of field you want (focus only 1 person or focus the next nearby person (2) etc.,) More Aperture = more depth of focus.
3. How much motion blur I want to avoid?
4.
You take a TEST shot of the scene and the pic is too DARK .
1. Slow shutter speed down until you don't see a motion blur.
2. Lower Aperture to LET MORE LIGHT until the subject is in focus.
3. Raise your ISO.
You take a TEST shot of the scene and the pic is too BRIGHT.
1. Reduce ISO.
2. Raise shuttter speed.
3. VERY LAST, Raise the Aperture (Remember you' ll have larger circle IN FOCUS)

~ My own notes:
7:56 summary of everything
0:57 ISO - the sensitivity of camera sensor; the higher the iso, the more sensitive the cam sensor is gonna be; higher iso = more light but also more noise and grainy as well; set your iso based on the SCENE
2:40 Aperture - the size of lens opening/hole; the smaller the aperture, the bigger the lens hole, the more light comes in and vice versa; example: lens f/3.5 & f/38... 3.5 has bigger hole while 38 has smaller hole; the picture gets more detailed as the lens opening gets smaller; set your aperture based on the SUBJECT; if you want more depth of field (or more detailed pic), go for higher aperture (or small lens opening)
5:55 Shutter speed - the amount of time (in seconds) that the shutter is open; example: 1/50, 1/250, or 1/8000 of a second for faster shutter speed. There is also 1", 2" , 10" for slower shutter speed meaning your shutter is open for 10" (10 seconds); shutter speed controls motion blur, use faster shutter speed for sports to capture crisp motion and make a fast-moving object freeze in time and avoid blur; slow shutter speed = more motion blur
Fix scenario #1: image is too dark:
- slow the shutter speed
- lower the aperture
- raise the iso
Fix scenario #2: too bright:
- lower the iso
- raise the shutter speed
- raise the aperture

This was essentially my college photography class, that I paid over $1200 for in 10 minutes.....for free...
Awesome vid man!
Edit: seeing as there are a lot of people taking this comment EXTREMELY literally, let me clarify. Yes I paid a lot for my photography class in college, but it was only one part of the overall program I was in. It also included work with Photoshop, InDesign and some other things. However, the info in this video was the majority of the focus. So chill people lol!!!

"Explain it to me like I'm a 5 year old" is, by far, the best way to start when venturing into this world as a beginner. The explanations were given under the premise the viewer knew nothing about each setting, right down to when and why a photographer would need to change any of them. The examples were a great visual aid as well. This was exactly what I needed to feel ready for the next step in learning. Thank you!!

Thank you so much for watching! Leave your photography questions in a comment below and maybe I'll make a video in the future to answer them!
