    I really like your videos. I see video’s like this all the time but the one factor no one ever says is what metering mode thery are shooting in. Are you shooting in Matrix, center weight, or spot. I’m guessing with the reflector your shooting matrix so that the background isn’t blown out. Or are you shooting in manual mode and just upping your shutter speed for such large apertures?

    Do you recommend using a uv filter on the lens? Or is it a lens hood enough? Especially for this type of location (by the beach with sand, ocean mist, etc.)…?

  11. firedust3 says:

    @nate42nd yes its true……….but you can adjust the aperture (lens opening) and the shutter speed…………

    @BlaatQ you’re right, I failed :-(

    uhm.. can i get free dslr camera? ahaha…

  14. BlaatQ says:

    85mm f1.2, as he says in his introduction :)

  15. HSJ says:

    @russvien08 It’s a 50mm f1.2 lens. Expensive, 1200 euros.

    @nate42nd I think there’s a difference between trying to directly photograph the sun versus shooting a subject that has the sun (more or less) behind it.

  17. nate42nd says:

    My manual says NOT to point my lens toward the sun….it can damage the sensor, yet I see many people doing just that. Is using filters the cure for this or is it okay to point you camera toward the sun? Thanks for any info anybody.

    @russvien08 he said it

  23. guitargirlae says:

    @Schneeerich I think it would work the same, they’re just showing the ways NOT to use a flash, since it’s focusing on NATURAL light. :)
