In this video I try out a 70-200mm for shooting portraits and try to decide if it will knock the 85mm f/1.4 out of my bag.

That Tamron disregards that shutter speed con….I can shoot handheld 1/50th comfortably with that VC. The VC on that 70-200 is unreal

Thanks for the video. Nice to see someone on the Asbury Park boardwalk. If you’re going to shoot portraits and don’t want to be so far away shooting at 200mm, why not use a shorter focal length, move closer to your subject, and shoot wide open if it’s background blur you’re after? There’s always a tradeoff involved (sadly).

Great vid. I shoot 90% with my Tamron 70-200 g2

@TheLinesEnd 2 года назад

I love my new G2 for portraits! It did amazing at some portraits at a pier.

@PhotographyGoals 2 года назад

Agreed, it's a great lens.

Thanks for this video! I had been using a Tamron 24-70mm zoom lens, but came across a Nikon DX 55-200mm zoom lens at a reasonable price: It's going on a Nikon FF camera, so that gives e a perspective of 85-300mm lens! Your information is VERY helpful,. Again, thanks,,

@TheLinesEnd 2 года назад

Ummm faster shutter speeds? That lens has the best VR of any lens I’ve ever used

I just picked up the Tamron 70-180 f2.8 (over the larger 70-200 GMaster) for the Sony a7iv. Great lightweight lens in this range. This completes a zoom trio for me as a hobby photographer.

@PhotographyGoals 2 года назад

That's great. It's an awesome feeling to complete the collection with that trio. Opens up a ton of possibilities!

Hello, good afternoon, with what lens did you record this video?

@ViciousXUSMC Год назад

I agree that @ 200mm your far away from a subject for good communication, but the "feeling comfortable" part. Some people feel more comfortable when someone is not so close to them taking pictures (non professional models) so that is a pro & con not just a con IMO. If communication from afar is needed could use a radio lol (actually done it)

@PhotographyGoals 7 месяцев назад

That's true. But I want to carry less gear, not more!

@hortonsstuff6948 Год назад

I got lens for wife she likes it however we need a 500mm for sports like football so far away

@kimberlylagregor2939 2 года назад

That 85mm f/1.4 looks familiar.

@zijunai8020 Месяц назад

no i won't use one of these. it is too heavy that i can only take this one lens, which means I can't take my 24-70 and 85 with me , i can't afford not to take 24-70 and 85
