    you said you shot the first at 1/40sec iso 100 f16 , then you changed to 1/60sec iso 100 f16 , this would have given you an even darker pic as you speeded up the shutter just a note as not to confuse the beginners

    Fair comment, but there is little value in telling people what you know if its detrimental.
    I commend the sharing of knowledge but really this advice is not good advice. I suspect he might even know better which makes it even stranger!

    least hes having a go at passing on what he knows , and some of his photos are amazing , maybe instead of putting jamie down you should post your own vids. well done jamie , keep up the good work .

    To be perfectly honest, as a landscape photographer myself I can only imagine this being misleading to beginners.
    It reinforces the idea that shooting in manual i difficult.
    This method kind of works if the auto settings are anywhere near what you might actaully select. In plenty of situations auto might have chosen f5.6 ISO400 1/20. Not the kind of settings you want if you have a tripod.
    A simpler approach is to say…Set the camera to Av, set the aperture to f/13 set the ISO to 100 and adjust
