It might be my copy of the 24-200 but I don’t use it that much because I find it soft, especially at 200mm but across the board. I’m considering replacing it with a 24-120. The lens I use the most is the 24-70 f2/8 S. It is truly outstanding.
If you have a DSLR camara you can get a camara umbrella for it that fits on the flash mount that swivels purchased on eBay I have one If you have a DSLR camara you can Purchase a umbrella for it
Hello Stuart, I came across your RU-vid channel while doing a comparative search between the Z 24-200 and Z 24-120. I would like to know what equipment you are using today. Do you still have the Z 24-200 or have you opted for the Z 24-120? I saw that you have shots at 350mm; do you also have the Z 100-400? Thank you in advance.
it certainly holds its own against the 70-200 in terms of sharpness. where it loses out, however, is certainly in the contrast, which is far inferior to the more prestigious lens. but from what I have seen from your splendid photos, it is a really good lens. congratulations.
What a lovely new shop you are moving to Stuart.I think it can only increase business and how lovely being ale to not give up work in 7 years yet still look after your son. Wishing you all the very best for your new venture and hope all goes well for you in the galleries new premises
I'm not surprised at your results Stuart. I have a selection of Z S lenses and the 24-200. My bushwalking kit consists of the 14-30, 24-200 and 20. It's everything I need. Except.......now there is the 28-400. Any plans on reviewing that lens?
Great to see the space and understand its potential longevity- looks very promising. As I said when we were on Harris, if there’s anything I can do to help, just sing up 👏👏
The new place looks fantastic and that’s with it empty. Wait until you get it the way you want it and hang all your prints! Wishing you all the best for the big move 👍🏻
To risk is also to success, nothing stagnant can bring any change. Sometimes these life situations are a blessing in disguise, new place new adventure for sure. Hope you will succeed and you will. Cheers.
Based on this review I did actually purchase the 24-200 Z mount lens and I did pair it with the Z5 body and as you mentioned it works very well. I tend to shoot at F9 which gives me sharp and adequate images. Thank you for the review it is well done. Cheers.
Congratulations and all the best in your new spot Stuart. I can't wait to pop in once you're up and running. I was just thinking that upstairs space is SCREAMING exhibition area and you squeezed it in at the end of the video there. 🙂
Good luck with the new premises 😁lots of potential and lots of space! One thing that I've always wondered with your line of work - you can't be in two places at once, so how do you find the time to actually get out and capture new images, surely it's always on the back of your mind you should be in the gallery? Cheers
I was just saying to the wife on our last visit that the New Balance shop had closed. Hope everything goes well Stuart - looks a great place with plenty of natural light and hopefully perfect to have your son with you when the time comes.
Thanks for sharing this Stuart, a fascinating insight into your photography journey. Your work is fabulous and I’m sure this new venture will be a huge success. All the best photographically and personally.
Stewart thanks for sharing a little history of your old gallery and taking the time to share what your new gallery looks like. Wishing you the absolute best with your new gallery. Risk is always a little scary, but I am sure you will make a go of it.
good luck with that Stuart hope it works out. I came to your gallery the first weekend you opened as I was on hols in the lake district and you had said on the talk photography forum you were opening so made a point of coming. atb.
I recently subscribed to your channel and this is the first video I see. I feel like I'm starting the adventure with you😀. There are always some unknowns about the future but it seems that you have made the best choices based on other realities too. I wish you success in this project and look forward to seeing the futur. 🤞Thanks for sharing Stuart.
Just want to say a quick thanks to everyone who’s left supportive comments regarding the move it means a lot as this really is a huge risk, I always reply to all the comments which I will in due course but just wanted to say thanks it’s much appreciated 👍
