Aperture, Shutter Speed & ISO: The Exposure Triangle made EASY!

Chelsea & Tony Northrup teach the beginning photographers the Exposure Triangle: Aperture, Shutter Speed, and ISO. They'll teach you how to use your mirrorless camera or DSLR to set low f/stop numbers, like f/1.4, let in more light and blur the background more. They'll also teach you how to use shutter speed to hide or show motion. First, however, they'll start with the easiest setting: ISO, which controls the brightness of your image.

I'm literally a rookie. Got my D7000 as a first camera yesterday. This was the first video I really understood and got som good pictures after watching it. It should be the first video every beginner should see! Thank you 👍

I've spent the last week or so explaining camera basics to a friend getting into photography, this video will be the perfect follow up and is even better than the original version on this channel that I learned from back in the day. Thanks!

The panic and confusion on Chelsea's face at 8:03 when Tony threw over his head the lens cap is so funny.

Thanks for such a clear explanation of the exposure triangle. I love the fact that you "Show, Don't Tell." You clearly demonstrate everything.

Don’t go anywhere else to learn photography, Tony & Chelsea are the absolute best at teaching it.

I really like that you guys are going back to the classics!

Hey guys! No video has been so singularly and instantly game-changing in my understanding of cameras and how that applies to my streaming/videos. After watching this, I went back to my set up and changed settings following your advice, which immediately improved my video quality and consistency (no more weird tonal shifts cuz the camera was auto-adjusting to whatever colour of light was shining from my monitor onto my face!). I cannot thank you enough! ^_^

You guys are the best photo teachers on youtube..👍👍

I EXTREMELY appreciate the way you guys explain things. I was having a difficult time understanding how to control a camera until you came along. So I THANK YOU!

[millerdp]

Superb production and education! Even have the “Fear of Chelsea” as a motivator...

[Sam_BD-Sbg]

I love it. I like the way you explain with showing live picture.. Grateful

[ToddAutry]

I understood your teaching so I keep watching only your videos and I spend more time photographing and less time learning.

If getting back into it, I would watch this channel!!!!

Watching this video is somewhat surreal. One of the first photography vids I ever watched was the original exposure triangle vid by T&C. Now, about three years and many, many T&C videos later, I am watching a video about something I already (mostly) understand. Thanks T&C, glad I found ya'll when I was just getting started.

It's always good to keep the basics fresh. Bravo Team Northrup!

[davidfuentes]

You have always been the best. Never stop teaching and guiding.

[elaineflournoy]

so simple when you put it like this! Thank you for a lovely explanation of all this "stuff!"

[sherralgi]

The triangle of photography. Very basic, with a very clear and good explanation. The way you did it, everyone should understand it. Great video. You are very good in complementing each other.

[reynoldsyoung]

Nobody covers photography better. You guys are just terrific! Thank you for bringing my amateur skills along!! Fabulous!!

This video looked great and was clear, concise, and not weird at all up until the last 20 seconds

What a great video! I've trained people to run video cameras and it took a long time to get exposure manipulation across to them. If I was going thru that again I would just show them this video. So much in just 10 minutes! Thanks!
