Wonderful work on display. This is without a doubt one of the best videos I’ve watched. The breadth of images you showed, color, tonality simply fantastic. I’m in the market for a 50 and you’ve helped solidify my decision. Thank you.

Nice wedding shots! I finally bit the bullet and got the RF50L. You have a couple of panoramas with this lens, and I'm wondering, did you switch to manual focus?

@ThePhotographerGuy

7 ай бұрын

That's great. My manual focus ring is actually stuck. I've never used it but about a year ago it i noticed it was jammed and I haven't had time to send it in. I just use a button on the back to disable Autofocus.

Amazing! You're an amazing photographer. 👏 How do you get to catch both subjects in focus at 1.2 ? Do you use single shot for that? I find it difficult with couples. Thx in advance!

Thanks Benjamin! The RF bodies are pretty great at focusing at f1.2. The R5, R6 and R6II are all really great when paired with this lens.

Great photos. What's the lowest shutter you would use for a portrait photo before you have to worry about blur?

@ThePhotographerGuy

Жыл бұрын

probably 1/125th. Mainly since non one ever really holds that still. I can photograph at 1/60 if it's a still scene.

it definitely has characteristics to it/ paired up with a r5 it almost gives that medium format feel to it.

I've been using B+W UV-Haze #010 MRC filters for the last 10 years and they've been amazing. Broken a few with some good bumps but they're awesome. No difference when shooting into the sun.

wow, great work! I have 4 50mm prime lenses, 3 for my Leica M cameras and one 1.8 for my R6. Looks like I need another one.

Hi Ely! How do you shoot panorama with this? Newbie here and trying to imagine it in practice. Do you use a tripod or just handheld? Does it all happen within the camera or with post production like a third party software? Your work looks amazing!

​@@ThePhotographerGuy Thank you so much for sharing! I was contemplating whether or not to keep this lens due to it not being as wide as 24 or 35mm but but seeing how you produce incredible wide images with it, I'm keeping it! Yes, I understand I might take more time getting multiple shots compared to single one from a wider lens, but for everything else it offers- sharpness, bokeh, focusing speed makes it all worth it! Thank you😁

Nice content! still considering to buy it... Is that nice extrem flare in some pics all coming from the sun, or did you ad lights behind the subjects and edit them out later?

All the way...After 25 years with Canon I switched to Sony in 2017. I shoot music gigs, concerts, band portraits, and magazine editorial work. I do love the Sony primes for their quality and weight. Then for the zoom's I use Sony 16-35, the Tamron 35-150, Sony 100-400, and sometimes the 200-600. I do miss the Canon 300 f/2.8, Sony does have one in the works for 2024 so it's on my list.

No. I don't think it makes a difference at all. I buy the B+W MRC 010 filters. I have been using them for years and have the same one on every lens.

Sold this for the 85. Slightly regretting it since I need to be wider since I’ve been shooting more professionally. Hoping to pick up a new one on Black Friday to use with my 85.

I believe I see a Loupedeck live in front of you? I'd definitely be interested to see a review of that if you're looking for more content ideas, especially since your channel is new. I get the impression Loupedeck just sends out stuff to big channels and they do the review, say nice things and then never use it again and that these things might not be as good as their marketing has implied. And if it is a different brand, I'd be curious what you use and how it is.

Hey Kyle, I have been using the loupdeck live for about a year and a half and love it. I had the original one, then bought the CT. The CT was crashing my 13" m1 mac a ton so I sent it back. When I got the M1 Max I figured i'd try try the loupdceck Live. It's been great. I mainly just use it for shortcut button like common crop ratios and quick instagram export. I'll probably do a small review on it including keyboard shortcuts when I get better in Final Cut... I recommend getting it through amazon prime so that you can return it if it doesn't work well with your computer.
