great Review! I really like that style of photos for wedding, good idea!
Thank you Phil for the insperation 🙏🏼
thank you for viewing!
Thanks for all your info! I’m gonna test this saturday on a wedding party🙏🏻💪🏻 Greetz from Holland!
heck yeah! lemme know how it goes!!
Hi! It worked out great! I have a xt4 with the 18mm 1.4 combo with the godox v350, but I find the reaction time when you press the shutter and the time when it takes the photo a little slo….like a milli second. Do you also have that?
The photos turned out great, so thanks for the great tips man!
I loved seeing you bouncing around on the dance floor. God bless ya!
Of all the reviews I've seen for this lens, yours makes the best case for it. Really great shots and I can see why the clients lose their mind
thanks so much TJ. Yeah its a fun lens for this stuff.
Thank you, dear RUclips algorithm for bringing me to your channel! Awesome work ✌🏻
thanks so much!
Wow. I came here for the lens information, but what an incredible genuine and heartfelt story. Thank you for sharing it. How are you feeling about the Laowa 9mm now? I have been thinking about getting one.
thanks so much for checking out the channel. I still enjoy it!
Good to hear that you're recovering well after the surgery now, wishing you all the best and nice review as always :)
You got some moves lol.
@@TwoTimesRmedia hahaha
@@QippysChannel sorry I thought I clicked on the top. Hate when that happens.

@@TwoTimesRmedia hahaha thanks. Its the puerto rican side of me!
Great pics! Also, bought your preset pack! It’s superb! Thanks you!!
thanks so much. Appreciate the love!
Pretty much sold me on this lens. Thanks for the video Phil!
heck yeah! let me know when you use it!
Good informative video mate ... after hear you at Omar Gonzalez Channel
Hahaha!! I loooooooooved your little dance--oh, and your video regarding the lens. I hope that you get healthier!
hahahah thank you!
Great video. Thanks 🙏 and sincerely hope that you are fully recovered.
thank you. its been a journey but feeling good!
Great video, I have always lived your video since I watched your first one.. So great to hear your recovery story even though I am so late into it. About the lens, being a manual lens, I thought it won't be suitable for a party. But what focus distance did you set it to? And what aperture did u use to make sure everyone in the foreground is in focus?
Oh u answered it already in the video 😂
So I put it at f7, and infinity focus on the lens/ but im making another video on the 8mm fuji soon!
@@philporto thank you! All your videos are awesome! I am amazed that you actually have the time to reply me
Nice! We use the Laowa 12 for real estate, never thought about using in the dance floor but will give it a go tomorrow
Yeah! give it a try and let me know your thoughts!
Awesome pictures. How the heck are dance pictures not blurry at 30 shutter though
Light is what freezes the frame. So if he uses a flash, he could have his shutter for as low as 1 second and whatever was illuminated will be sharp and bright. Also, with daylight you can have a shutter about as low as your focal length without camera shake. 1/9th of a second shutter won't be blurry unless your subject is moving.
Great review Phil thanks.
Can this be used on the Sony A7c as looking for a wide lens low in weight as I use a Crane gimbal?
Thanks Icecy :)
Thank you for the video! I pray for a full recovery for you in Jesus name.
Hi Phil! Love your videos! Thank you.
Thank God you much better now.
I am coming from Canon to Fuji and looking at starting with X-S10 Model for Studio/Location Portraits and some weddings. Is this a good model to start with?. I plan to get two bodies and the sigma trio lenses with either the Fuji 23 or Viltrox 23mm
So sorry for the delay! Thanks for the well wishes! Yes X-S10 is a great camera. the new Fuji 23 is great! check out the new video for the review!
You got some moves bro lol
Hello Phil, are you still using the Laowa 9mm for weddings or the new Fuji 8mm f3.5?
Still using the Laowa. I enjoyed the 8mm but couldnt justify the purchase since i had the laowa. heres what i said about the 8mm ruclips.net/video/RK_KWWF_FoQ/видео.htmlsi=2K5FIjjt2Llh3IK-
Great video!! Is that a manual focus lens?
yes it is!
Hi from Spain, I thought 9mm would have more distortion, have you cropped any of them?. I use 35mm and shoot inside the party, maybe instead of 50-70cm like you, I shoot 1 or 1,5 meters that is not very far from the people and I still can see more people on the frame. I think it depends on how you use the lens. You use it very well. One of my second shotter sometimes uses 20mm lens and peoples faces in the corners for me are not good. So I dont understand how you dont get more distortion on 9 mm... I see very straight lines. For me looks like a 24mm crop more like a 9mm, maybe it is because flashed is zoomed something from 20-to24mm. Actually I am rewatching and in 12:42 this guy has an arm bigger than his body hehe.
Thanks so much for tuning in. No I do not crop. That is one of the magical things about this lens on a fuji body. On a non crop sensor it would be like a 12mm I think, no distortion. Even at 35 I think we miss a lot of whats actually happening in a party. people dance with their whole bodies, not just their faces, so getting the whole spectrum is key for me.
Good morning sir!
Goooooood morning
