I recommend Aperture Priority Mode to all photographers, ESPECIALLY BEGINNERS. It is a good way to step into manual controls, while not fully diving into it. It lets you focus more on composition and depth of field, which is important when you are only starting off.
Aperture Priority is a mode in your camera that will let you adjust the aperture of the camera, and the shutter speed will be adjusted automatically in order to get the proper exposure. This will let you focus more on composition and depth of field, and worry less about getting the right settings in order to get the proper exposure. The exposure can then be adjusted using exposure compensation to either increase or decrease the exposure that the camera gives you. This means that you will still get the flexibility of adjusting the exposure of your image if you are not happy with the reading that your camera gives you.

His SO CUTE
Hi. I find your videos very much interseresting and of course helpful.
I am very much curious to watch all.๐
do i or the cam controll iso in a mode?
You rule! this was so helpful!
Direct and clear tutorial, thanks.
Can someone explain to me what the numbers mean? Like f1.8 is that a reference to the distance shooting. Maybe I just clueless
I tried to use AV on my Canon, but all of the pics were horrible. Either WAY overexposed to the point that you can barely see the subject or completely blue in color. Do you have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
what keeps me from sleep is…everytime I zoom in or out on my lens( 18-135mm) I have to change the aperture just to have a clear picture…and on a event , you don't have time for that…..I think av mode is more for a special pictures where u can have time to set the right aperture u would like and depth of field , like a portrait , landscape etc ….am I wrong ?so I think P mode is faster on events
Pls elaborate
You rock!! Thank you!
Hello! I just discovered and subscribed to your channel. Thank you so much so insightful videos, you really break things down in an easy way for beginners like myself. I know this is a very old video of yours, but I still hope you'll reply – I'm trying to understand which mode should be used in what situation. If I understand it correctly A mode would be great for portraits as well as close-up object shots like that of your lens e.g.. But what about landscape photos? Which mode/setting is ideal for that? Thanks in advance. I'll continue watching your tutorials ๐
Well done young man.
What if my maximum aperture is f3.5?
One of the best tutorials I have seen on learning photography yet. Thanks!
What's that thechnique called when paparazzis quickly take pictures at celebrities where you see many flashes?
Thanks.
What's your flickr?
Hi! I find your videos really great.but I just wanna ask, how do you adjust the exposure compensation? do you have any tutorial videos on it? I'm so sorry if the topic I'm asking is common sense to some, I'm a total starter to photography and DSLR. ))
amazing
A simple and straightforward explanation. Helped me a lot. Thanks dude!
Thank you so much for these videos, they were exactly what i needed! They're really helpfull, thanks!
Very well explain..thanks for posting the video
always wondered what this mode did (I have one on my 35mm nikon d2000). I shall give it a try!
Well done, young man! Concise and easy to understand; much better than a lot of other AV tutorial vids on here.
Can you please explain shutter priority? I cannot understand it at all!
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
The larger your aperture is (lower f-stop number), the shallower your depth of field will be.
thanks for the reply, but how would you determine the right aperture?
Adjusting focus is just adjusting the area in which you are focused on. Depth of field is the amount of area that is in focus.
cant you just change the depth of field by playing around with the focus?
If you set your ISO manually, your exposure comp will change your shutter speed.
Your videos are so helpful and been helping me get the most out of my DSLR. I have a question, why would you adjust the exposure compensation opposed to the iso? Thanks.

rock on !!!
you are of great help…
but please do review your spelling… that's the thing i've noticed from your video… 2 rows now…
