    I rented the 50 1.2 for a commercial shoot a few months back and the images that came out of it are really spectacular. I still don’t love the 50 as a focal length, but if it were on a crazy sale I’d have to pick one up - this lens made me want to learn to love it. 😂

    I have the 35-150 and it’s amazing for the ‘fillers’ but the 50mm is perfect for a good number of Candids but for the exceptional
    Shots it’s amazing. I rented for my last weekend of weddings this year and put it on a second body and felt I had everything

      Hah same. I feel like I forced the transition a bit, since my brain always wants an 85mm or a 35. I assume that’s just from using that combo for like 15 years though

    For weddings I use my 55mm 1.8 Zeiss on the Sony combined with my Leica Q ~28mm 1.7 having a decent 2 body relatively light set up. I see the 50 1.2 use case more in portraits especially with the low dept of field.

    I normally shoot with the 55mm 1.8, LOVE that Lens! I rented the 1.2 a few weeks ago to test it out and I was finding my in-focus hit rate was not as good as my 55mm. They also seem to have a different look to them. I think I like the 55mm more. I love the 1.2 though!!! Using A7iv

    • @TaylorJacksonPhoto
      @TaylorJacksonPhoto  Рік тому

    I'm torn on this lens. I feel like I should probably get it to have the 1.2 when the lighting is reallllly low, but because of its weight, its probably not something I'm going to rely on for most of the day.

    I´m amazed that you did the shots indoor with poor light without flash. How high was your iso? Do you use Topaz Denoise or another program afterwards? How often do you change aperture on a day like this on the 50 1.2? Greaaaaat video

      @@lauriewahlig2819 My thought is that I'm probably only going to ever buy one 1.2 lens, just to have that low-light capability. And if I'm only going to have one, 50mm makes the most sense, because it's the most versatile focal length.

    I also often had the 50mm 1.2GM on my camera for weddings. A truly outstanding lens - no weaknesses.
    Now I had the opportunity to photograph a family celebration with the 55mm 1.8 from Zeiss and I have to say that the difference is less than expected.
    Yes, it's not that bright. Yes, it has more CAs. Yeah, the minimum focusing distance isn't as great as the GM.
    But considering the price, I don't think there is a better lens in the 50mm range for Sony. Value for money is outstanding and in my opinion even better than the 50mm 1.2GM.
    The combination of A9 and 55mm 1.8 is really strong. The autofocus is super fast and reliable - even in poor light conditions.
    The image quality in terms of image sharpness and bokeh is simply amazing for a lens of this size.
    Now I'm even toying with the idea of ​​selling the 50mm 1.2 GM, I'm so excited about the 55mm 1.8.
    Anyway, thanks for your video, wonderful shots.

    Im still prefer the 35-150. Obviously 1.2G its such a great lens. But the range and versatility of the other its a killer bonus.
    I have the 28-200 but searching the 35-150 hope coming soon on the next year.
    Im remember when i bought the 28-200mm i was no looking for that lens really. I was for 24-70 2.8 sigma, but when i feel theres no connection between us. Hahaha other way the 28-200 feel mine since the first moment.

    I remember when you first started posting videos on the Sony system, you didn’t really care for this lens too much.
    I also think you said you weren’t a 50 shooter before when you sold the Canon 50mm 1.2.
    Nice to see opinions evolve.
