Basic Photography Lessons by Piyush Pande

Discover how photography hinges on perception, and explore genres like nature, street, fashion, food, architecture, underwater, and astronomy while comparing point-and-shoot, bridge, and professional cameras.

Learn how shutter speed controls exposure by speeding up or slowing down the shutter to capture or blur motion, with faster speeds freezing action and slower speeds creating motion blur.

The lecture explains ISO as the camera's light sensitivity, showing how higher ISO brightens images but increases noise, and how ISO, aperture, and shutter speed control exposure.

Learn how to properly grip and hold a camera, from strap on the neck to finger placement on the lens and the buttons, and view through the viewfinder for stability.

Explore practical nature and wildlife photography, emphasizing eye-focused sharpness, shallow depth of field, and precise focus point selection (manual or auto), while adjusting exposure and shutter speed.

Master the sports photography technique of panning and finding to keep moving subjects sharp while the background blurs; learn horizontal panning, camera motion, and shutter setups aligned with subject speed.

Learn painting with the light through long-exposure photography, using a torch to draw designs for up to 20 seconds in front of the camera, capturing light trails.
