@M4GICSL3IGHTZ It depens on your lens , distance from object to camera and your aperture! When you have a lot of light, you can close you aperture up to 12 or 16 or maybe more. and everything will be in focus. the more you open the aperture, the more shallow the depth of field will be. I hope, that helped someone

I just got my dslr…. can you do this with any lens or what? I have a standard 18ml lens that came with my d90 & I’m trying to play with different focus’ with no luck… any tips or pointers??

u did an excellent job in explaining this. thank you!

@M4GICSL3IGHTZ Yes, through focus stacking. You’re going to need focus stacking rail and photoshop to stack the pictures.

Is there a way to get everything in focus

is this hx1 ?

i havent tried this yet just seen ur video tx

@MrRconway I’m not sure what you’re referring to. I explained focus plane. You don’t have to do anything in your camera.

hi i dont know were to go on my d3100 to do this tx

thank youuuuu

@mc96822 That’s awesome. Most people don’t get the AFS single point focus option. Now the possibility are endless for you. Subscribe and enjoy the show.

thanks for the tutorial. You explain things well. I just got my D7000 yesterday. Didn’t know how to focus till I saw your video ‘focus anywhere’. Realized that my setting was on AF-A with complete focus points. Now I’ve changed it to AF-S with 1 focus point, and I start to get nice pics with clear depth.

@motzies You don’t have to shift the focal plane to do that. You move the square focal point and place it on the other shoe. Watch my video, Focus Anywhere by moving square focal points around. That video talks about focal points. Thanks for the thumbs UP Don’t forget to subscribe for future videos. Photography is not that hard.

great video.. but how can you shift your focal plane..? what if i want to focus on the shoe that is behind (see pic @ 7:53)..?

Lol, you’re using your t-shirt. Genius. Yes, another great video!

@Jepraw It’s not the resolution. It’s calibration, Jep. You’re going to need a color calibrated monitor or the prints will look different. So far it’s an unsettled debate as to which color calibrated monitor is the best. For time being do 3 different edit, normal, over/under saturation and get 3 prints, It will give you an idea. Normally regular monitors give you more vibrant colors than what’s going to get on prints.

@PhotographersOnUTube Ty for goodvids! quick question how do i know if the color resolution is right on my screen? cuz when i print it out the colors are different… ty!

Another good video! Just a side note on your opening fact; no casino- anywhere- will have clocks… or windows for that matter.

@SpyralTwilight There is a huge list of different bodies, lenses and flashes I’ve used in my videos. Some of the pictures I took with D70s, D300s, D7000. Some of the lenses include Sigma 17-70 2.8-4.5 Nikon 24-70 2.8, Tamron 28-75 2.8, Nikon 50mm 1.8, 85mm 1.8, Tokina 16-28 2.8 and some other lenses you’ll see in future videos. Check out my website to learn more about different types of lenses.

I am sorry if you mentioned this already, I couldn’t find it on a quick search. What camera model/lenses are you typically using in these videos?

@aokpalad1 Face detection is for auto stuff mostly used in basic cameras.

how about face detection? for group photos…

how about face detection?

Thanks, very informative and great way of explaining. Especially for a beginner like me. Hope to see more..

@BODALLY Thanks John! Your video on Exposure Chart was excellent and I gave you a big thumbs UP! Any beginner reading this comment should check out BODALLY’s video on Exposure Chart. Like a lot of beginners I too had the wrong concept of stops when I had initially started photography. John did a great job breaking that down.
