The exposure triangle is formed by 3 settings namely shutter speed, ISO & aperture. In our previous podcast we discussed about shutter speed
7 how to control it. In this episode we will discuss about ISO, its buttons, how to control it and its significance. We will also see how ISO affects images in general as well as dental photography.
The problem with discussing ISO buttons is that they are located at different places in different cameras. This difference is fairly constant in Canon cameras which is why I LOVE CANON for its camera design consistency. However in Nikon ISO button is very differently located and sometimes even absent. I've tried my best to incorporate about ISO buttons of some of the biggest players in camera world namely Canon, Nikon,Sony, Panasonic & Fuji in this podcast.
There are tips for what must be the best ISO settings for dental photography as well as general photography. Do share the podcast with your friends if you find it helpful !! -

The main dial aka control dial is one of the most versatile button/dial of our camera. It can control many settings and is like a multipurpose joystick.

In this episode we will try and understand all the functions and uses of the Control dial of the camera.

I have trained thousands of students.
Out of my training experience I've realized that many a times the camera user is never able to see anything sharp through the viewfinder. There could be many reasons for this but one of the MOST OVERLOOKED reason is ignoring the diopter adjustment of your camera according to your vision. In fact this is so overlooked that even many conditioned photographers dont know about it.

I never suggested a mirrorless camera for so many years. 1 reason for that was the unavailability of 100 mm macro lens for the mirrorless camera.This issue has been finally resolved by CANON. No more waiting. Huge applause to Canon for introducing the RF 100 mm macro lens for dental photography using a mirrorless camera.
We all know that the canon mirrorless cameras come in 2 mounts
1 is the M mount (for small sensor category)
2nd is the RF mount for the full frame mirrorless category.
Canon has recently launched the RF 100 mm macro lens and it will be the best choice for MIRRORLESS camera users and yes NOW WE MAY shift to a mirrorless camera if we wish to.
The cost factor is something we have to look for now. -
