BASED IN Croydon, London, Robertson works in Housing Management and loves nothing more than getting out with his Canon camera. He's been interested in photography for about five years and loves to take portraits of interesting characters and personalities around his area, and other boroughs such as Camden.

TECHNIQUE ASSESSMENT

APERTURE PRIORITY

JEREMY set Robertson's Canon EOS 5D Mark IV to its Aperture priority mode, also called Av on the mode dial, which stands aperture value. This is a semiautomatic mode that allows Robertson to set the aperture to f/8 for a strong sharpness and deep depth of field.

His Canon EOS will then work out the shutter speed based on the metering mode, which was set to Evaluative to take into consideration the exposure across the whole frame.
