jared polin froknowsphoto.com and this
is three shots or less where we go into
different situations and scenarios to
try to get the perfect exposure in only
three shots let's see how i do this time
in this scenario my goal is to capture
dan in the air i want to freeze the
motion in three shots or less
now what I'm using this time is a nikon
d 3333 kit 18-55 lens but i want to
remind you that the gear does not matter
the exposure triangle is the exposure
triangle is the exposure triangle it's
all about building your exposure one
shot at a time
now let's pick something out of nowhere
now normally i wouldn't put these
settings in here i'm going to start at
150 of the second @f 5.6 and let's get
to iso 200 just to see what would happen
damn you're gonna go on three and i'm
going to capture you and and just to
remind you i haven't test done any test
shots yet this is what it's going to
look like is the first time I'm doing it
remember this is about building the
proper exposure not getting the perfect
composition 123 Jump
now let's take a look at this and see
what we have one it's too bright and two
there's a lot of motion in his hands
150th of a second is not really good for
freezing motion so in this case i want
to change one thing I want to just
change my shutter speed so I want to
freeze the motion in this case let's go
to 14 hundredth of a second and see what
we can get with one for hundreds of a
second with our second shot
remember I'm only going to take three
shots to get this right
dan on 3 123
alright he clapped his heels
it looks like I froze him the only
problem is my exposure is way off so now
let's take a look at what I'm shooting
at i am taking i'm at 14 hundred of the
second f 5.6 at iso 200 now what this
tells me is I need to go ahead and let
more light in
in this case I'm going to leave it at
5.6 just for all of you guys out there
with kit lenses who may shoot at 5.6 i'm
not going to change my shutter speed
because i liked freezing him at 14
hundred of a second which leaves me with
just the iso I met 200 iso i'm probably
off by around two stops just from look
at the image itself so 200 goes to 404 1
stop and then 800 is the next stop after
that so let's go to 800 iso take the
picture now this is my third shot let's
see what happens dan on 3 123
boom and let's take a look that is much
better that exposure looks pretty darn
good and we built that in only three
shots now think about it the first shot
I took a new one 50th of a second wasn't
going to be right for freezing him but I
wanted to show you how you could build
the exposure in only three shots if you
do it into awesome but some situations
take a little bit more than that
so this image is pretty darn close as a
starting point that if you get your
exposure right after those three shots
you can focus on shooting as long as the
light and the situation you're in
determines that the light isn't changing
and you would have to get a different
exposure so being that I shot in raw
will be able to tweak this just a little
bit more but the goal is to get it as
close as possible in the camera so I
think I did a pretty good job in three
shots if there's a scenario situation
you would like to see me shoot and for
this series leave a comment down below
and maybe we'll be trying out your
suggestion in another video and that's
where i'm going to leave it
