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.

I typically use the 1/focal length method when shooting handheld. You can get away with 1/30 of a second shutter speed as long as you are shooting at 30mm focal length or less. I almost always shoot with a tripod but when I'm trying to get quick shots 1/focal length usually does the trick!

I'm a freelance Outdoor & Science writer. I would really like to learn whatever you can share relative to Macro Videography of very small objects, such as a fly. Just recently I decided to make tutorial videos of myself tying flies (for fly fishermen/fly tiers) & post them on KZitem. The camera has to be focused very close to the fly & hopefully make the fly appear even closer than the fly tiers sees it, if possible. Also, I'm considering buying a weather-sealed Pentax. I presently use an old digital Canon (one of the very first DSLRs). As I recall, Sony has some good weather-sealed ones as well, but I think they were a bit more expensive. Back in the '70s I had a Pentax & I loved it (of course, a film model). If you have advice on the choice of brands, I would really appreciate it. Thank You so very much & if you are ever in the Pacific NW, I would be happy to guide you for fishing for species ranging from Trout to Pacific Salmon & Steelhead ( of course, no charge. I have guided anglers from as far away as Scandinavia). Thanks Again😊

Thanks for a nice presentation of a workflow for drilling down on the required settings. In the film days, a photographer wold have to make a choice about the film he was buying depending on the expected lighting conditions: daylight or tungsten, fast (1000 ASA) or slow (200 ASA). So, rather than pick an ISO/F-stop/Shutter combination at random, could the workflow be improved by noting the current light conditions (which generally be known and will not change) and starting by selecting an ISO which would fit (e.g. strong daylight, ISO 200; dusk, ISO 800 or 1000) and then randomly select shutter and aperture and start from there? This would have the advantage of eliminating one of the three variables from the start based on conditions which are known (i.e. overall light value).

Forest, I don't think you were able to see about three or four questions that came in when you asked for questions, so here was my question. After watching numerous videos and reading articles about metering modes, I have come to the conclusion that metering modes are subjective to each photographer. Some photographers primarily prefer spot metering while others use primarily matrix or evaluative metering. I even found one professional photographer who doesn’t care or even knows what metering mode their camera is in. I am a Nikon dslr user and shoot 99% of the time in manual mode using matrix metering. I’ve been experimenting the last few weeks using spot metering. I shoot a wide variety of subjects ( people, animals, flowers, landscapes, sports). I’m also aware of how your camera can mislead you and how to correct the exposure when it recognizes a black object or a white object. Are there any instances or situations when spot metering would be advantageous over matrix or evaluative? Roger
@forestchaput

That is a great question. The answer is unfortunately, that it depends on two main factors. First, are we using a mirrorless camera or DSLR. If we are using a Mirrorless camera, I would almost always shoot zone/evaluative/matrix metering. Mirrorless cameras let us see a live histogram of our scene and there's really no reason to ever go to spot metering when zone metering will do pretty well and you can literally see your photo before you take it. If I'm using a DSLR, the answer changes a bit. Usually, I'll be on zone metering. Sometime, I will switch to spot, but really only in controlled scenes when perfection is very important. Truth be told there are obviously about 5000 more scenarios you could come up with and the answer in all of them would be "it depends." Basically there is no "right" answer. It comes down to what you prefer as a photographer.
