Live: BASIC Exposure Workflow - Get the Perfect Exposure Every Time!

Do you struggle with your images turning out too bright or too dark in some situations? Let us help.

In this live video we are going to discuss how to get consistently exposed images in a wide variety of situations. We will also look at different exposure workflows for different genres of photography and how to develop an exposure system that works for you and what you are shooting.

Before watching this video, it is important to understand the basics of exposure and how shutter speed, ISO, and aperture/f-stop work together to control the brightness of your images. If you aren't totally comfortable with these three concepts, check out our photo basics series below.

You sir are an excellent teacher, the best explanation of the exposure triangle l have ever heard, and well worth a subscription!

[alancantu]

I can’t accurately express how helpful this video was. You explained things in a digestible and simple way that is rare to find on YouTube. I’m definitely subscribing!

[tyleralcala]

This is really really good content. The whiteboard made everything click. Like you said, it’s like a math problem. Thanks for the courses, game changer.

[luisbaltodano]

Thanks for the really helpful video. You demonstrate how to use manual mode in such easy way. Keep up the good work.

[ReinaHogen-nhpj]

Wow! So thankful for you! You explain everything so incredibly easy to understand. More than twenty years of hoping someone could explain all of this so I fully understand. Thank you so much!!

I cannot stand Word problems, but you have helped me so much with this video! Excellent content! I greatly appreciate your clear, brilliant explanations.

[donnaguille]

Makes good sense. Thanks Forest for making this complex information so clear and for the good examples. Great video!

[ConnerBaker]

I wish I had this video years ago when I started shooting. Seeing everything laid out similarly to a math problem helps everything click a bit more. I will be sharing with any of my friends trying to get in to photography!

I just found you, and I am so so glad i did, im new and have not grasped the concepts but just in this one day you have me thinking i can get it. I think i have decent equipment ( no nice tripod or flash yet ) but I love love Macro. I don’t even know the numbers on my macro lense( shame on me) but its cannon 100mm macro, and i got the telephoto cannon 100-400, and a couple other nice cannon red lens. Ive spent several thousand dollars, but need to learn about the different lenses. I’m so excited to try this stuff out. Ive been watching and bought someone else’s book and watch them, i thought they were good, but you brought it down to my level, very cool. I use my auto on the phone and get nice shots but not like when i use my cannon 80D I bought. I cant wait to try manual this weekend and use your examples and learn. Thank you so much, Grateful, Marcel In NH.

Man I have seen no better video than this at explaining photogharphy basic.👏👌

I've been using Auto Iso with exposure compensation to get what I want. I also capped the Auto ISO at 6400. It's been working for me when doing handheld shooting.

Actually I was looking for tutorials for my Insta 360 One RS. After following them on your channel I came across your further explanation of camera settings. I am delighted. I've learned a lot about my Canon EOS 2000D and how to use it. Your clear understandable voice makes it easy to follow without getting bored. Thank you very much

[notanotherutubeuser]

hey im a first time phtographer i just got my fuji xh2s yestarday, already this video has helped me understand my camera so much more, i really appreciate it, while your talking I'm running the settings through my camera and taking pictures of my little pand on my desk and i was amazed at the difference form same picture but with f4 and f16 on the fuji 18mm lens is was a much nice picture at f4 with great bokeh or blurry background from other things on my desk :)

[asayaisrael]

I really like this, this is perfectly understandable I understand more now and I like the way went over this

[camerongrant]

This video is precisely what I was looking for, as I’m trying to figure out my camera. Thanks for doing great work 🙌🏽

[Richie_]

I've only been into photography for a few months and got a Canon 400D. It was an OK camera but I traded it for a used Canon 7D which I prefer.
You video's have helped a lot. Thanks.

[larrykurfis]

Great Job and I'll recommend to others.
