Great video, Sean. All points are very useful.

Here are the timestamps.

1:00 Always use AF.
3:12 Use single point AF.
4:24 Use back button AF.
5:44 Your shutter speed is too slow. Use at least 1/60.
7:28 Know the limits of your aperture.
8:27 Be deliberate with your focus.
9:28 Know the minimum focusing distance of your lens.

Great channel. Great to come across someone who gets straight to the point and isn’t spending half the video trying to be funny like most of the other YouTubers. Great stuff Sean.

OMG you are the guy who clicked the coffee pic 1:55 . Dude I kept it as my wallpaper for few weeks, used it in my edits and Unsplash surely does show your clicks a lot when I type relevant keywords man. Thanks for making an editor's life easier when it comes to backgrounds and stuff

I decided to really make sure I knew how to take really sharp pictures. I started to go through a couple of videos here at YouTube, and then I came to yours, now I am done. This is the information many others charge a lot of money to give away. Maybe they spend a little more time on each point, but I got what you said and now back to practicing. Thank you!

Great points. Back button focus is the only one I don't follow. It seems t be a very personal thing, and it's something that I just can't get used to. But all the rest are spot on.

Choose contrasty, direct light instead of soft light, try to apply it from the sides, and over the surface of your object. This boosts the sharpness too.
