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!

Extremely helpful! Thank You ❤ You are super amazing, I subscribed and I plan on following you to learn more!
I learned more in this video than I did in 30 hours of videos on YouTube. Thank you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, David!! I've been taking a terrible photography course in school and haven't learned hardly anything, but rather have gotten more and more confused. Your way of explaining things, along with the examples, has been a life and grade saver! I'm a little less terrified and in tears about photography now due to your videos, so THANK YOU!
ur so cuuuuuute!
great cheat !
I feel like I e spotted a fellow homeschooler 👀
Thank you , I now have a better understanding of the settings on my Camera. I was using Auto because I didn't understand what ISO was. I will be playing around with the settings now.
his way is so cute and fun at the same time… amazing video bro
Thanks very helpful tips. Which cameras do u recommend for home events Greetings and Regards
What I find confusing about F stops, is some canon lenses like 35mm RF has tiny little glass but goes to F1.8, but then 50mm does the same basically but it is way wider glass.. so does that mean 50mm will let more light in a F1.8 than the 35mm?
David: So many of the photographers giving info/advice on YouTube talk about using large F-stops to create small depth-of-field. But they never mention that this often comes at a price due to less optical quality at large f-stops. My experience is that the first 2-3 f-stops and the last 2 f-stops on most lenses are considerably lower in optical quality than all the f-stop in between. So using i.e. F-stop 2 may give you a nice blurred background but you also loose sharpness in your main subject. I did a test on Canon and Nikon Macro 100/2,8 lenses. With macro lenses you very often shoot at very close distances where you would want f-stop 32 or even smaller to gain max depth-of-field but these f-stops are close to useless due to very poor optical quality – I had to go to around f-stop 18 to get super optical quality, and then at the cost of depth-of-field. Apparently it is not possible to get both……
Wow thank you. That is all!
Thank you for this, I will share with a new assistant. I just want to make something clear, and maybe you may consider this, as you know, apertures are in fractions. 1 over the aperture number: 1/1.4; 1/5.6, 1/22, etc. In other words, when we see 1.4 or 2.0 in the viewfinder, this is not a "smaller number" than 22, it is actually a larger number. But I know you know this, as many others. I always teach this in fractions when I first take on an assistant that is brand new. Same with shutter speeds – 1/60, 1/250, 1/500, etc. Again, thanks for the video.

ISO is an acronym. It stands for International Organization for Standardization. It replaced the acronym of ASA. Or in your case ASS
thank you so much, that was really helpful
Thank you
OO!! Yes. You told us GOOD.👍
one of the best and simplest video on youtube.cheers
Thanks so much, chasing a dream is way easier with people like you.
Best teacher
This is most useful and helpful video for photography. I have watched. Awesome, just love it. Looks basic but there is a lot of information in this video which can help you to step into the world of photography. When I started photography I had no idea of all this. I can go out and give it a try.
I’ve just bought a Nikon d3200 18-55mm vr kit, and this video is so helpful as I’m new to photography, it’s people like you who help out new comers to photography and simplify what seems ridiculously hard, thanks so much!
Holy sht this is an amazing video
Great video
Hi David. My name is chase I'm a 14 year old male and my dream is to be a professional photographer As this video helped me more then the auto mode on a camera I would love it if you could maybe do a video on how to actually start making money from photographey and making my own photographey business. Hopefully not needing a computer because all I have is a phone for now just until I get a computer.
I'm starting a photography career next week and this helps a lot. Thanks bro!!
Dope info bro!
I like photography and knowing those things is surely very useful, but what got me into photography on the first place was taking pictures of wild animals, and I realized that micromanaging those three things (ISO, Aperture and shutter speed) is very impractical when trying to take a picture of wild animal that will not wait you.
That's why I rather use the Av or Tv mode on my camera, so that I can have some control of the picture quickly, and the rest I let the camera do the job.
I’ve been trying to find a video that was so simple and easy to understand like this for a while now. This was exactly what I needed and the fact that you were able to sum it up in a 10 minute video was super helpful. Thank you🙏🏾
This still help me
Your background music is annoying
All I wanna say is , thank you so much ❤️
Nice review video.
I just started getting into photography and this is amazing! Most simplified tutorial I've come across!
Hi! If I wanted to dabble in photography and am super serious about it, what camera would you recommend starting with? And lens?
Nice video, but that music tho! 🥴
Thank you.
thank u!!
Great video David, I enjoyed the tutorial. Been taking photos since 1982 and have enjoyed the art and science of photography.
Keep up the great videos. Thanks,
Thankyou
