Hi Jason, great video and alternative suggestions. I own the Tamron 17-28. While it is not the best, it gets the job done. I do not own the Sigma 85 but borrowed it to test for a month or so. The Sigma is perhaps the sharpest lens I have shot wide open. Another thing I like about the Sigma 85 was how light it felt on the camera. If I had the budget, I would go all GM lenses. But for budget reasons, I went with an all Tamron line up and totally happy with the results I am getting. I had a chance to shoot the Tamron 17-50 for a few days and it is a fantastic versatile lens. The only "downside" is that it is an f4!

For two-lens kits, I like to use a slight telephot and a slight wide-angle. These two lenses allow me to capture 70% of the images I need. To capture the remaining 30%, I need longer telephotos, wider wide-angles, and specialty lenses such as macro, perspective control, fish-eye, soft-focus, and pin-hole. My favorite two-prime lens kit for my full-frame cameras are: 35mm f/1.4 85mm f/1.4 or 90mm f/2 My favorite two-zoom lens kit for my full-frame cameras are: 28-70mm f/2.8 80-200mm f/2.8 My favorite two-prime lens kit for my APS-C cameras are: 23mm f/1.4 56mm f/1.2 My favorite two-zoom lens kit for my APS-C cameras are: 16-55mm f/2.8 50-140mm f/2.8

I mainly shoot concerts. My most used lenses are the 24-105 F4 that I bought with my first camera, and a 100-400 F4.5-5.6. My second purchase was a 70-200 F2.8, but the 100-400 has mostly replaced that; the slower aperture is less a hinderance than the 200mm of lost reach. My third most used lens is a 14-24 F2.8, but I use it far less than the other two.

@mahidharnaraharisetty4212 4 ай бұрын

Wait I understand that you’re gaining 200 extra mm but you’re not gonna get as much light nor the creamy bokeh and is it really worth that? I mean I’m really torn between the variable aperature lens vs a low f stop zoom lens. Having used both can you give me a quick review please?

@trekkeruss 4 ай бұрын

@@mahidharnaraharisetty4212 I use manual with auto ISO. Any loss of light because of the smaller aperture is made up with a higher ISO, which is not a problem with a Sony full frame sensor. I can clean it up further as necessary with software; I use Topaz. I don't need nor especially want a super creamy background; I want to show the subject on stage, not with a totally blurred background. I do have a 135mm F1.8; I haven't used it much at concerts.

I’ve tried a 14-24mm Sigma but it was too wide for me. I don’t shoot portraits… almost ever. So I don’t need a 50 or 85 prime.

I've been on a Sony zoom kick lately and I'm loving it. Sold my last prime (Sigma 35mm f/1.2) to pick up the 16-35 GM II. So now I'm on a full zoom kit for my a1 and a7SIII. Sony 16-35 GM II f/2.8, Sigma Art 24-70 f/2.8, Sony 70-200 GM OSS II f/2.8, and the Sony 200-600 G. I always have the first 3 with me and it's easy to toss in the 200-600 when needed. So it's SUPER easy to pack out knowing there's no prep for the lenses. I know what fits in my bag every single time and no longer have to play the "this one or that one" game!

I would say my go to is 16-35 f2.8 GM and Tamron 70-180 f2.8 so I cover a lot from wide to telephoto range. I also bring a prime, the 35 f1.4 GM for casual walk around or low light scenarios. If I know that I need an Astro lens I replace the 35 with the 20 f1.8 G, but the lighter is your backpack the better overall experience is.

Noob question: what would be the difference between the Sony 16-35mm you recommend, and the Sony 16-50mm kit lens?

@foxydnaaa 5 ай бұрын

It’s the build quality and image quality! It has a constant aperture of 2.8 which will give you better bokeh when you start shooting more you will realise the auto focusing breathing in kit lenses is decent or just bad when compared to better quality lenses.

How about a nice lense on a A6700? Does this camera really overheat?😮😮😮😮😮

Why would you want to use ‘super 35’ (APSC cropped) when you have clear image zoom anyway?

U can’t use ICZ with raw shots. Only with jpg.

My 85mm 1.8 has paid for itself multiple times as my headshot workhorse.

😂 I’m the complete opposite Zoom is 24-70mm f2.8 Prime is 35mm f1.4 70mm at f2.8 has plenty of separation; and wide lenses need a wider aperture for same result, hence the f1.4 and for a low light lens, I’d prefer a 35mm 1.4 over an 85mm 1.4

my 2 would be the 16-35 GM and the tamron 35 -150mm No overlap and full coverage :D

Agree. I second that.

The Sony 16-35 F4 PZ is a great price wise option!

My two lens kit is the Tamron 35-150mm f/2-2.8 and FE 20mm f/1.8. I do own the FE 85mm f/1.8 as well and love it.

what about aps-c lenses?

@our_roadtrip 3 ай бұрын

My two lenses of choice: The Sigma 85mm 1.4 DG DN and the Sony 35mm 1.4 GM. By adding a Sony 20mm 1.8 G it would be complete and good compromise between weight, speed and performance.

20-70/f4 and 35mm GM are the dynamic duo for me

A minimalist approach.... I can see that. What's the point of having lenses... that we hardly ever use? Thanks. Being just a hobbyist... I started idealizing zoom lenses at first.... Then I noticed that most of them were so slow... f/4, f/5... and unusable in low-light situations, they tended to collect dust inside, and most delivered softer IQ pics than primes. So for now, my ideal Trinity of lenses is a 28mm prime- wide, a 50mm prime- normal view and a 85mm prime- kind of telescopic... all at f/1.8. Rarely do I need to shoot specifically a 53mm, 37mm, or a 74mm shot... You get the point. - If I get into weddings, may have to invest in a macro lens... and a remote possibility would be the 200-400mm or a 70-200mm long zoom lens... We'll see.

zeiss 55 1.8 and sony FE 35mm 1.8 sold all my other lenses and kept these two

For me, it would be zoom lenses. The Sony GM 24-70mm F/2.8 and GM 70-200mm F/2.8. As much as i love my 85mm and 135mm Portrait lenses, they are just good for portraits. With my zoom lenses, i can shoot any environment even if the bokeh is plain haha.

I have the Sony 24-70mm F/2.8 GM II, Sony 14mm F/1.8 GM, and the Sony 24-105mm F/4. Hoping to get the GM 70-200mm when I have the funds for it.

@@ramenkingfilms8537 That's a great set. You'll love the 70-200 GM-ii as it comes in handy a lot. Im hoping to add the GM 12-24mm to my collection in the future.
