    I’ve photographed more weddings than headshots. At age 71 I plan to move into headshots/portraits and family sessions while backing away from weddings. I don’t have the excitement or desire for weddings anymore, but I still like the $$. If I get into portrait work I believe I can bring in enough $$ to please myself. I love playing with off camera strobe lighting, different softboxes, umbrellas, using different backdrops and experimenting with light ratios. 2025 will be a transition year for me. Hopefully headshot/portrait work will come my way.

    Hi Scott, a question which has puzzled me since moving from 1DX2 to R62 is tethered flash cables. I use the triggers mainly but miss having the back up when the trigger has an issue on a shoot to quickly plug in the flash cable. The R6 and mirrorless series from canon dont have the connection. Is there a work around like a USB C version cable especially for older studio flash units.

    When I shot Canon, I'd use 24-70/2.8, a 70-200/2.8 and later 24-105/4. The first two were heavy and the third less so. For a whole day wedding shoot, for example, I can imagine this new lens would be very useful for a range of shots; especially dark interiors without flash. Looks interesting if a little pricey.

    I just bought it as I like the speed, better image quality and best of all is the tripod collar. I mostly use Panasonic GH's for video, but recently been using my R5 and R6 mk II more, but mounting the R5 to a tripod plate and using the 28-70 f/2, just seems like a lot of stress on the mount...so this lens really answered that problem for me. Also not crazy about hanging my 85 f/1.2 DS, but it is a bit lighter than the 28-70. I'm sure I'm worried for nothing but I do shoot a fair amount in low light and ALWAYS wish the 28-70 were a bit wider and a bit longer when in use. So going through a bit of redefining my lens use case parameters!

    • @scottlawrencephoto
      @scottlawrencephoto 3 месяца назад

      Yes the 28-70 always felt heavy. Tripod collar on the 24-104 is great for studio work!

      Pretty awesome and might become the new "always on"-lens for a lot of videographers. Especially with the Power Zoom Adapter, a modern AF system it might be an absolute beast for wedding photo/videographer. Smooth zooms are nice and i really like my Power Zoom Adapter on the EF-S 18-135 when combined with the Canon C100 II. Old but works; Face detect AF, Stabilizer for handheld work and smooth zooms. So all in all that might be a really neat upgrade and pretty all-around-solution.

    Scott, I'm in Oklahoma and I sized the client's ERAS 2.5 x3.5 at 150 pixels. She sent me an email tonight with screenshots that showed when she uploaded the headshot the preview showed a square format instead of 2.5 x 3.5 and therefore it was cropping her photo and when it cropped it, the bottom edge didn't show enough of the blouse she had on under her blazer. I have no problem making her a square format image too but everything I've read said it needs to be 2.5 x 3.5 for the application submission. Have you ran into this? It's the first time anyone has ever had a problem with the sizing format I've created.

      @@scottlawrencephoto I think the original file I sent her would have been fine but the blouse she wore under her blazer was not low cut by any means but maybe a little lower than a blouse that starts closer to your collar bone. She didn't like what the preview was showing her, it only showed her blazer but not the top of the blouse. I raised her blouse neckline with PS and sent her another file. I also did something I've never done before that I think helped me retain quality on such a small file. By exporting the file rather than the usual "save as" I was able to maintain a lower file size but higher quality file than I had previously been giving. Inadvertently I learned a new way to save my files by exporting them. I sent her a 2.5 x 2.5 to see if she liked the way it looked on the preview. I'll hear back from her today. The screenshots she showed me made it look like a square format would have been better for the application. I'll hear back from her soon. I'll let you know.
