    TL;DR. Single point AF. AF-C. Top left focus point usually.

    Is the after shoot processing what gives the photo of the groom you showed that vibrant beautiful color even though the day looked gray?

    You shoot vid and stills at the same wedding, how do you work out which to do at moments like the rings going on, first kiss, etc etc.

    I am looking for a good travel credit card. I can buy some extra equipment with it to earn that intro bonus. Kinda of interested in if they are worthwhile.

    I'm not a wedding photographer, but I use Nikon cameras. Thank you for this useful video!

    Hi Taylor. Do your images are sharp with this technique? 'Cause when I try that most of my pictures are blurry.

  9. Le Harj says

    I use bbf , but whatever works i guess.

    Great video, Taylor. With one exception…Canon's Dual Pixel AF is the best video auto-focusing there is. I've tried everything from the Sony to Panasonic systems and nothing comes close.

    Hey man. Great stuff you're putting out there. How do you shoot Photo and Video both as a Single shooter during the First Kiss and the Walking down the aisle + Exit?? I get extra shooters primarily for these shots. And ofcourse the rest of the day but this is the main reason.

  12. Brandon M says

    How is the course

  13. Divi Photos says

    Great video

  14. Melissa Furina says

    This video could not have come at a better time for me. I have been struggling with focus on my new camera and this just answered so many of my questions. Thank you immensely!

  15. Frank Woodbery says

    Do you keep the AF point position setting set so that the camera will automatically keep the relative position constant when switching between portrait and landscape orientations? Your D5 and D850 does that, but I don't think D750 or D610 has that capability.

    That ending speech, I knew that! HAHA

    Love that movie! 😛

  17. Dean Anthony says

    what are you using to record yourself shooting the wedding on top of your camera?

  18. Andie deRoux says

    I use the same autofocus settings but do use back button focus. By decoupling the focus from the shutter it helps especially in low light situations or in situations where I don't need to re-focus.

    You should work in your talking, you talk too fast making the tutorials hard to understand

    Hey Taylor, just want to say I appreciate your channel, even though I shoot on Sony, I find your videos very concise and informative.

  22. Josiah Dueñes says

    Hmm, I have always heard canon's Dual pixel autofocus for video is the best. I've never heard someone say they don't really trust it. I shoot video on canon. Not flaming, just never heard that! Otherwise, great video!
