Excellent course! Answered so many of my questions. Thanks for thanking the time to put it together.

This is really helpful. I’m learning that to really understand the exposure triangle, you have to use these lessons out in the real world, practicing in manual mode. Slowly it’s coming together.

Wealth of valuable knowledge packed in this video ❤ 👏👌

[laurasmith]

WOW. This information is so useful and clearly presented. I know a little already, but I don't know it well enough to explain. After watching this twice, I can explain what I know while increasing that knowledge. David, it's a great presentation, thank you.

Good video sharing.!!! Thank you for sharing

[anthonypaladino]

I'm really enjoying this. Question, I'm from upstate NY & U mentioned you are shooting in upstate NY, can U say where? the farm looks very familiar. I specialize in shooting weddings & school sports. For the school groups In gym I use two Godox AD-400 flagged and bounced off ceiling. Lights full power & raised high about 7 feet. Camera manual - 24mm lens -- ISO 800 F/8 @ 1/125 sec. Look forward to more videos from you.

holding your breath on full inhale provides the most stability (similar to weight lifting it helps to stabilize the spine for a rigid torso). Just be sure to grab the shot and then exhale otherwise you may just faint :D

[robertstark]

As your channel is enhancing the lvl for beginners... Soon will watch all are favourite in your channel. ♥♥♥

[SameerKumar-wjvo]

Really it is helpful to shoot better photography.

[georgizaev]

What’s the point setting that strobe lights without diffusers at that high and creating that nasty shadows under the chin? you could avoided this by lowering them down and using defusers .The two speed lights are also too high for just a hire and shoulders light.

[jsengfoo]

just curious, why is this video limited to 720p?

[hermanokelah]

Hi dave, my name's Herman from indonesia. I followed your guidance to calculate DoF, buat when I insert Focal Length value to 11mm, the result become minus. why is that? (Focal length=11mm, aperture=f/2.8, CoC=0.02, distance=120 inches). how to fix this? Thank u for your time
