95
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:47,780
step then you start worrying about
hyperfocus
96
00:07:47,780 --> 00:07:55,480
so at that point when you've chosen your
your focal length you were to god that's
97
00:07:55,480 --> 00:08:02,590
it you're not going to change it now
it's it's it's a it's 16 ok then you
98
00:08:02,590 --> 00:08:07,020
only have one variable life to worry
about and that's your aperture we
99
00:08:07,020 --> 00:08:10,670
recommend that you start at eight we
sort of done everything for you at this
100
00:08:10,670 --> 00:08:16,520
point you have to choose your own focal
length but we're gonna tell you to start
101
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:21,080
with FAA and you're ready to your circle
of confusion so that's it
102
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:27,020
the chart gives you the two variables
are starting out or cold conditions are
103
00:08:27,020 --> 00:08:32,260
worried about that you're gonna go
across your going to choose your
104
00:08:32,260 --> 00:08:38,640
sorry your focal length on the on the
left side so if I have sixteen
105
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:43,769
millimeter they're gonna start at FAA
not find the numbers here you'll notice
106
00:08:43,769 --> 00:08:49,380
there to numbers listed one is a check
for Hyper focal distance and one is for
107
00:08:49,380 --> 00:08:52,440
near focus distance
108
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:57,950
hyper focal distance is where you set
your focus I set up my camera I set my
109
00:08:57,950 --> 00:09:07,769
focus to in this case sixteen millimeter
at eight is 5 foot 3 inches so my camera
110
00:09:07,769 --> 00:09:14,079
is set to that distance my focus is set
I'm not talking about only trade out my
111
00:09:14,079 --> 00:09:19,709
camera is low to the ground and I have
an angle down it's possible that the
112
00:09:19,709 --> 00:09:23,959
ground right in front of me is going to
be closer than any foreground object but
113
00:09:23,959 --> 00:09:27,140
it's still in my frame so keep in mind
we're talking about distance from your
114
00:09:27,140 --> 00:09:30,890
sensor imagine that you have a string
tied to your sensor please don't ever do
115
00:09:30,890 --> 00:09:31,790
that
116
00:09:31,790 --> 00:09:35,860
string tied your sense or you know we're
not just talking about straight-out were
117
00:09:35,860 --> 00:09:42,890
talking about down to think about that
distance you set your focus your hyper
118
00:09:42,890 --> 00:09:48,209
focal distance and everything from half
that distance to infinity will be
119
00:09:48,209 --> 00:09:51,959
acceptable as sharp as defined by our
circle of confusion
120
00:09:51,959 --> 00:09:58,029
sharper than world war two and that's
the near focus distance that's listed
121
00:09:58,029 --> 00:10:01,399
just believe anything don't really need
that number because it's really just
122
00:10:01,399 --> 00:10:06,120
half but it worked out really well if
you have that if you have that
123
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,550
information as you don't have to do the
calculation we've done that for you to
124
00:10:09,550 --> 00:10:16,100
first thing you're going to do is choose
your composition second thing you're
125
00:10:16,100 --> 00:10:24,080
going to do is look at the number on
your lands 44 focal length
126
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:30,090
and then you're gonna start at eight
what if F eight which which gave us
127
00:10:30,090 --> 00:10:36,990
those those five and a half feet of
hyper focal distance what is your your
128
00:10:36,990 --> 00:10:41,550
subject or what if there's something in
your frame that actually closer than
129
00:10:41,550 --> 00:10:45,700
half that distance will be up something
that even closer to you and that's
130
00:10:45,700 --> 00:10:49,640
that's not enough hyper focal distance
well that's where you push your camera
131
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:55,660
little bit outside its sweet spot of Fe
and bump it up at sixteen that'll give
132
00:10:55,660 --> 00:11:01,090
you a closer hyper focal distance which
means you're near focus distance which
133
00:11:01,090 --> 00:11:05,840
is half your hyper focal distance will
be closer and you can include a subject
134
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:18,490
that's closer to your Lions questions
before I move on two years
135
00:11:18,490 --> 00:11:23,870
that's a good question I'm glad you
brought that up the question was do you
136
00:11:23,870 --> 00:11:28,160
need to think about crop factor versus
full frame lens if you're calculating
137
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,910
hyperbole distance no you don't have to
worry about it at all
138
00:11:31,910 --> 00:11:36,589
that's that's the simple answer and
that's a really wonderful thing a lot of
139
00:11:36,589 --> 00:11:41,360
people will tell me that you know if
you're using a crop factor camera you're
140
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:42,830
not a pro
141
00:11:42,830 --> 00:11:46,830
absolutely 100 percent disagree with
that because the fact is I can put a ten
142
00:11:46,830 --> 00:11:51,950
to twenty two millimeter lands on my
crop factor in camera at 16:10
143
00:11:51,950 --> 00:11:56,870
millimeter live lens focal distance is
one foot which means my near focus
144
00:11:56,870 --> 00:12:04,110
distance is six inches from islands that
is awesome right I can't do that with a
145
00:12:04,110 --> 00:12:07,200
full frame camera because they don't
make it ten to twenty two lens for a
146
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:13,480
full frame camera they make a sixteen
4417 240 Lynn right so it gives me extra
147
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:24,380
yeah yeah I'm sorry I should say that
they do make they do not make plans for
148
00:12:24,380 --> 00:12:28,709
attended 22 or attend to something lens
for the for the full frame camera but as
149
00:12:28,709 --> 00:12:35,990
more of a fish I look to it so the
questions we usually recommend that
150
00:12:35,990 --> 00:12:40,000
rather than memorizing the whole chart
or carrying it with you you take a look
151
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:45,490
at your most commonly used wide-angle
lens and you say okay so if mine is that
152
00:12:45,490 --> 00:12:52,240
seventeen 240 lens all memorized it at
17 and all memorized it may be at 24
153
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:58,040
millimetres for F eight of 16 don't have
to remember a few numbers for numbers in
154
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,649
my head and that's a lot easier than
always driving on a piece of paper
155
00:13:01,649 --> 00:13:04,630
that's gonna get wet and damage but it's
a good place to start
156
00:13:04,630 --> 00:13:08,920
you know gone here mark the ones that
you need to know and it is a great
157
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:13,390
reference but just a few numbers and and
you're all set I never check a charge
158
00:13:13,390 --> 00:13:17,339
anymore I know what my numbers are for
the most part and when I'm not quite
159
00:13:17,339 --> 00:13:21,820
sure I can estimated because I know
enough to make sure that I've got
160
00:13:21,820 --> 00:13:27,360
winning yeah I saw a lot of you know
sort of confusion about it people
161
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:31,839
weren't really sure and doesn't feel
solid gotta practice it and get out
162
00:13:31,839 --> 00:13:35,060
there and really think it through
because it's it's a lot easier to hear
163
00:13:35,060 --> 00:13:39,560
it and sort of you know you understand
the theory but then when you try and put
164
00:13:39,560 --> 00:13:46,140
it into practice you kind of forget you
know the search process to it but if you
165
00:13:46,140 --> 00:13:49,949
start out by choosing your composition
and remember that you don't have to
166
00:13:49,949 --> 00:13:54,500
worry about any numbers and tell you
know what your competition is once you
167
00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:58,870
set your composition you already know
what your what your focal length is that
168
00:13:58,870 --> 00:14:03,550
all you have to worry about is your
aperture and then once you've sent these
169
00:14:03,550 --> 00:14:07,430
numbers I should say you know once you
you figured out that the FAA door F
170
00:14:07,430 --> 00:14:11,570
sixteen or whatever it is is is where
you need to be to get everything a sharp
171
00:14:11,570 --> 00:14:18,890
focus the only variable left on your
camera aside from ISO is shuttered so
172
00:14:18,890 --> 00:14:22,899
then you adjust your children to be I've
had people come to me in great confusion
173
00:14:22,899 --> 00:14:26,370
and say don't understand why this isn't
working for me I've been trying it for
174
00:14:26,370 --> 00:14:31,370
hours I cannot get it to work and so I
watch through the whole process and
175
00:14:31,370 --> 00:14:36,890
they'll serve their camera choose their
their focal length shoes there
176
00:14:36,890 --> 00:14:43,959
everything set up and then before they
hit the shutter release the change the
177
00:14:43,959 --> 00:14:47,959
aperture to f22 because somebody years
ago told him to change it
178
00:14:47,959 --> 00:14:52,440
landscapes will have 22 no no no no no
don't do that
179
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:57,980
chosen your offer to leave it at that
I'm not sure why that was confusing but
