Best Sony Camera in Low Light
Wanna know the best Sony camera in low light? Check out my comparison of the Sony A7SIII, the Sony A7IV, and the Sony A7RV for shooting in low-light scenarios like night photography or astrophotography. There is so much hype out there about what cameras can do but don't believe everything you hear from camera manufacturers. It turns out that high-megapixel cameras don't always suffer from low-light performance issues!
Check out the cameras in this video:

NO ONE, NO REVIEWER, NO ONE OUT THERE, mentioned the fact that your vertebra will literally snap from the weight of your camera bag if you have this lens and you camera body and anything else in it. Like say you have this lens and you camera body and I bug lands a top of your camera bag and ads it’s body weight to your deceptively heavy bag… SNAP!!!! I won’t return it because it’s a good lens.

    Heads up, the screws that run through the mount ring go about *1/16"* into *PLASTIC* (4 threads). If you ever drop your camera, even from a short distance, the screws WILL strip out... ask me how I know lol. The lens was on the ground and the mount was still hooked to the camera. Thankfully, this didn't happen during a wedding or any paid work. I cannot believe they built it so poorly. I took apart the mount on the Samyang 135 f1.8, and it uses longer screws and anchors into a METAL ring. After loving and shooting this lens for over a year, there's no way I can ever trust it. Thinking back, I'm so thankful this happened during a family event and not while I was doing a job. After it's repaired, I'll be selling it.

      @@TheBergreens yep, honestly I was astonished when I saw this. Anchoring screws into plastic is ok on small / light lenses, but this isn’t a small or light lens. Typically, they’d go in about 1/4” into the lens body. They created a beautiful, functional, and economical lens, but this is a major design flaw. They sent autoreply bs without reading my initial email. I responded to it and they provided more information. I’ll be calling today, but I’m not very hopeful lol. With any lens, I always keep the lens hoods on as an extra protective measure. Typically they’ll deflect / break with any impact. But… not if the mount connects 1/16” into plastic 😂

    I used both this and the Sony 50/1.2GM and I think this lens is as sharp as the GM, however, the GM is faster, has better AF and has a lot better CA control. Still the 55/1.8 ends up in my camera bag more often. I love its character and pop.

    Everyone talking about how they like 35mm because of size and weight while I walk around with my 1.4 sigma art 35mm which is as heavy as my 85mm and 70-300 together... 😂its kinda love or hate focal length tho , I personally love to use it for weddings/portraits/indoor stuff , and for some reason I hate how it looks when I shoot cars/landsapes . Its funny that I originally bought it for landscapes and I just don't bring it with me anymore when I go out , I just throw on 70-300 on and 85 in my bag (which I LOVE to use for sunsets and landscapes , everyone finds it weird for some reason like its only made for portraits) that way I don't have to worry about 1000$ lens and I have light bag .

    Good channel you have and good informative videos. But I completely disagree with your take on cameras. I am a wedding and portrait photographer, and I also do a lot of corporate work. I use APS-C Fujifilm cameras for everything I do. Small fantastic cameras with small lenses. The largest lens I have is the Tamron 17-70/2.8. Additionally, I sometimes use manual focus and other times auto focus. I checked my last 3000 pictures and there were 4 that were slightly out of focus. When I say this, it means that it all comes down to knowing your equipment inside and out and not thinking about using it, but just doing it. I use the Fuji X-T2 and X-T3. For me, it's also about being minimalist, especially at events. You also need to know your flashes inside and out.I have met a number of full-frame camera photographers who certainly believe that they can take pictures without flash, as their camera and lens are fantastic in low light. Huge mistake.This is not a critique, as different photographers have different preferences and respect to all those who take good pictures. But you can definitely be a professional photographer without heavy full-frame equipment...

    For the hobbyist, does it make sense to have both a 35 and a 50? Currently, I have a 50 and an 85. I want something that allows me to get more in the frame in tighter spaces, but I feel like if I had both a 35 and a 50, one lens would eventually be relegated to sitting on a shelf in a closet. I'd sell my 50, but it's shocking how much less you can sell a used lens for, even if it's in Like New condition. I thought about the 24mm, as a compliment to the 50, but I find 24mm extremely challenging to compose with. Thanks for your wonderful channel.

    • @TheBergreens
      @TheBergreens Місяць тому

      Yeah sometimes certain lenses don’t have as much resale, it really depends on how old it is. As far as 35 vs 50, I would say they are different enough. I often head out with a 35 and a 50 in my bag. Maybe shop used and see if you can find a deal on a 35? If I had to choose I’d much rather have a 35 & 85 than a 35 & 50. I agree that 24 is a little wider and not as easy to use as a 35. Good luck!

    A 35mm Lens is "the holy grail" of Lenses, if you look back on old compact Cameras with fixed mounted Lenses, then they had 35, 38 or 40mm Lenses and for a very good reason, it is a focal Length that is easy to use for most people that not have much experience with photography. I love the 35mm focal length, When I go with one Lens only, then the 35mm is a high scoring favorite, I have two 35mm Lenses, the Voigtländer APO-Lanthar 35mm 2.0 Aspherical which is second to none in optical image quality ! The other one is the Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar 35mm 2.8 T* ZA which is so Light and compact, that you always can find space in a bag or pocket for it !

    I have the Sony 135mm 1.8 GM, but it is big and heavy, now I most often use either 110mm or 85mm. If I should have a new 135mm Lens, then it will be the excellent Zeiss Batis Apo Sonnar 135mm 2.8 T*, it is one of the most Light weight 135mm Lenses. I went through many of my photos taken with the Sony 135mm 1.8 GM Lens, most of the photos was taken with aperture 2.8 to 5.6, some larger than 2.8 and some with 8.0 or 11.0, but it was rare and those taken with larger aperture was nor very pleasant, so 2.8 for a 135mm Lens is all I need.

      That’s awesome! I love the bokeh at 1.8 but 2.8 is also pretty!

      @@TheBergreens I do think that using aperture 1.8 with a 135mm Lens are most often too much to be good !

    Great video that sums up the actual art of using the 85mm and not just the nerdy details. A lot here I'd picked up intuitively over the years, articulated well in 8 short minutes. How dare you, lol. Happy shooting! Also loved the 35mm companion video. These are the two lenses I carry in my bag :).

      That is a classic lens! So many people love it. And the AF speed is acceptable?

    Thank you for showcasing the mics. I'm assuming you're recording this video on the DJI mic 2, if it is indeed so the audio quality sounds great! The budget one you were using sounds pretty decent too though you didn't mention the brand and model. Is it the Zoom F2?

    • @TheBergreens
      @TheBergreens Місяць тому

      Yes, all was recorded on the DJI mic 2. I was actually surprised by how my budget option sounded. I could hear the difference in my Bose headphones but otherwise pretty decent. Can’t remember the name of my budget lav, it doesn’t have a name on it. The main benefit of the DJI was the noise canceling function to cut out unwanted ambient 😊

      I’d look at a 20 or 24mm lens on an APS-C camera. Hope that helps 👍🏻
