Hey everyone! Today I am sharing a step by step guide on how to shoot in manual mode. I have made this video a few years ago but I thought it was time for a refresher :) I have some real world examples where I share with you how I change my settings for different lighting conditions and gear limitations. Let me know in the comments if you found this video helpful!
