I have been watching a ton of videos on here to help get me out of AUTO mode but you are by far the best I have come across. I actually am not understanding what all these things mean (ISO, Aperture, etc) and how they all come together.

[meltdownman1]

My Canon 5D Mark II has the ability to show the Red Green and Blue (RGB) histograms. It also has the ability to adjust/tint these colors in addition to Magenta which of course does not have a histogram. Not being an artist, could you give some pointers on how the Magenta tint adjustment plays into the color schemes e.g. adding more Magenta tint add allow you to mix the RGB colors and come up with say more "yellows" in your picture?

I can't seem to find any info on this,

[ouritandmadamfou]

you're a pleasure to learn from, thank you.

[iamvarshaa]

very nice tutorials for beginners. thank you.

would you consider showing examples of bad photography, and then the results of implementing the things you teach to show how those bad photos can get better? seeing things as examples will probably be more effective, i believe.

[nijeshps]

Great videos!!.. Thank you very much for nice and simple explanation.

Regards,

Nijesh

[corelmanjim]

Great session. Keep it up.

[endurance0007]

whts the price of the dvd and how can i buy it, i stay in berlin, germany

[rajudeep]

you are great. I like all your videos.Like your style of teaching.

[dudekaus]

got xsi after a damn long longing for slr, and using the kit lens, which came almost free (some 2 hour deal in amazon, lucky me). Well I am going to Nepal, place where I call home, do you have any wide angle suggestions (tight budget situation). Another thing, is 50 mm f1.8 a portrait lens or can it be used for landscape as well.

A bow.

[virgoastrogirl]

The tungsten light bulb just came on - now I know why they say it's good to have a cloudy day for weddings!!! Love the videos, will drop in to Samy's when I get to LA as we have zip like this that store in Brisbane, Australia. And anything we do have is double the price, even on eBay :(

[dyabalbar]

Hi formaset,

quick question, how can we implement the photography in photoshop? suppose someone can't afford to get all these big flashes, soft boxes,...etc. so can we use the photoshop instead all these stuff?? and how accurate is the lighting in the photoshop? by the way i like your videos they are great and am looking forward to order the DVD to learn more thanks again

Photoshop can only do so much and becomes very destructive when over correcting. I have not tried but I believe you can't duplicate the look without damaging the image and making it look phony.

Use what lights you have until you can afford to gear up. A north-facing window lets in a very soft light but I am not sure it that changes on the southern hemisphere. ? =o) ? But anyhow, it doesn't cost a thing.

Well, I hope this helped

[lop934]

@FontanaKnowledge Yep in the Southern Hemisphere the sun is in the Northern part of the sky, so the light from the North is very harsh as certain times of day.

[skaterchild428]

@dyabalbar

Photoshop can give you any look you want as far as lighting, color temp, vibrance, and basically everything except increasing pixel quality beyond what your camera is capable of. which means you really need to know how to use the filters and masks correctly without losing clearity.

[camaraf1]

Any recommendation on what Books are out there for this subject ?

[formaset]

Definition of photography comes from greek which means: Writing with light!

PHOTO=LIGHT

GRAPHIA=TO WRITE

[Eddyf24]

i think its because writing is like engraving so a photo is engraving light onto your picture

[formaset]

No. The lens focuses and defines the image and controls the right amount of light that will enter. Then that whatever image is burned onto the silver particles of the film, or CMOS Chip for digital.

[Eddyf24]

so figuratively its engraving it on

[JohnF30Music]

Photo derives from the word Phos, which means Light in greek. Grapho= to write. graphia is kind of a noun.

[formaset]

Another way to diffuse the sun light is simply a cloudy day, which is the best time to shoot even at high noon. Amateurs think that a sunny day is a good day for outdoors people photography.
