    I made a mistake - the Sony 50mm f1.4 Planar is titled as 50mm GM. Corrected it in the chapter title and product link. Sorry about that.

    @ainouta123 3 года назад +8

    That Sony FE 85mm f1.8 and Sony FE 35mm f1.8 is my go-to for almost any paid gig. (The combination of these 2 covers pretty much 100% of the footages and look that I need)
    That Sony FE 28mm f2 is my go-to for traveling videos! (I mean, its just too lightweight to ignore)
    That Sony FE 24-105mm f4 is my go-to when I just want to bring 1 lens for the entire day and I'm not sure if I'm gonna take photos or videos or both (mainly for travelling as well).

    Brandon, your informational/tutorial video are always top notch. I've been in the business for over 45 years and I still learn something every time from watching your videos. My personal favorite is the Sony Zeiss 16-35mm. I use it all the time on our gimbal with great results. It's super versatile. Thanks for doing this video. Best of luck to you as we move into our post-COVID world.

    I heard a lot of negative stuff regarding Sony 24mm GM lens regarding bad focus breathing for video. So I'm contemplating whether to get the 24mm 1.4 or the 35mm 1.8. I want a wide angle prime. As I have no prime lenses. Just the Tamron 28-75 and the Sony 16-35 f4. I do real estate, wedding, and personal photography and fun such. Also some hotel and food work.

I know some people get the info they need from just you standing there, but the footage would of been the chefs kiss. Anyways cheers.

  • @travelstory5773
    @travelstory5773 3 года назад +5

    I sold all of my lenses from ultra wide till telephoto lenses and keep only fe 35mm & 85mm, all 1.8 for the same reason as you! My last sold was 55mm cos I was doubting but at the end I had the same idea as you do! 55mm was too tight but not enough compression and bokeh as 85mm. And i can still use apsc mode in 35mm to get that 50mm look 😉. Thank you Brandon! I love your video 35mm is your fav lens! But I am happier knowing your reason of using 85mm too! 😄

    • @CC-gt3ro
      @CC-gt3ro 3 года назад

      This is why i got tamron 17-28 f2.8 which is very good. With aps c you can get 35mm and up to 42mm. But i can access 28/24/20/17 for photo and tight spaces. The lens is extremely good and sharp with nearly no chromatic aberration , less than in the 35mm and 85mm which have a lot of purple fringe in high contrasted pictures.. but the advantage of these prime lenses is for low light with the f1.8 aperture compared to the f2.8. This is where they could make the difference.

    @blackbird8837 3 года назад

    I know I'm probbly not in the position to tell you anything about lenses, but if I dared, I'd say that the 50mm 1.4 was gittering, because of the physical length of the opitcs. Something I noticed with my Tamron 28-75mm 2.8 all the way at 75mm. You wouldn't expect it from that focal length, but since it's a 1.4 as you rightly mentioned it's fairly large, so I'm guessing that's where this comes from.
    Thanks for the video once again. Love your content.
    PS: youtube compression really sucks. I'm seeing this rainbow separation in the shadows of your footage even though I'm 100% sure it's a clean looking image in the rendered file.
