I'm soooo excited to be using the Sony 85mm f1.4 GM lens today!! It's such a beautiful lens as you can see from some of the 100% crops of images I've included in this video. Let me know what other videos you want to see from me with this lens!
Also I hope you're all staying safe and are doing okay. This was filmed before the outbreak and I am now practicing self isolation. I know this is a hard time for creatives and freelancers and I thought I would outline a couple of different ways you could help your small business owners during this time:
- share the love on social media, comment, like their posts and share their work!
- consider one of their online resources like presets, classes, e-books
- order prints from a photographer you love
- order a commission from an artist you admire
- shop from your local artists or small businesses online
- watch creators videos on youtube :)
- if you've made a booking with a photographer for something coming up in the next few weeks, consider rescheduling instead of cancelling

Thank you so much for watching! xx - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
the gm 85mm is literally the one lens in my collection of batis and gm’s that makes me eager to shoot, i cant explain it but everything from the feel to the end result is just perfect
One of the few channels that combine technical reviews with really gorgeous shots.
Thank you so much :D
one? Literally the only. Too much talking and cuts in so many other videos. This is the only channel that goes in deep with the portrait shoots.
When a beautiful modal teams up with a very skilled photographer! Results OOOOOHMAZING!
Hehe thank you!
One of my favourite shooting videos - it's so relaxing. The model, light and music are so beautiful! Also brilliant work! 😍🥰
Absolutely adored the last photos in the trees! So gorgeous and the editing was very beautiful too!! Thank you! 🖤
Thank you! 💛
I love this! Beautiful photos and gorgeous model. 👍
The time that between shutter was so perfect.It's has the rythm and make me feel really relax.
I've been watching your videos for a while and I have to say, you're such an inspiration! You explain so well + your voice is so soft and nice to listen to! Also I feel like sometimes people talk to the models in a bit of a harsh way (probably not on purpose), but I really like how you don't do that - instead, you make them feel comfortable. Your photography style is amazing, and I'm learning a lot from you, thanks!
I had the same thoughts watching the video.
So happy I came across your vids! I love taking photos and trying to pose so I learn so much from your videos and you’re the sweetest! 😊💗
Glad you like them!
Stunningly beautiful Julia. Amazing images and the music was perfect.
Thank you so much!! I really appreciate the comment on the music too, I always spend such a long time trying to find the right tunes to fit the mood 💛
Julia your channel is very diverse and that's really great! Always a great source of inspiration for everyone. Love from Argentina ✨🖤
Thank you! 💛
These were all beautiful.
Fantastic photos from Sony 85mm F1.4
Julia your works are amazing! looking forward to buying some of your presets! keep up the good work! keep inspiring!
Thank you so much, I appreciate it 💛
We learn so much from your videos! Love your sweet kind spirit! Need more youtubers like you! Just awsome Julia! My wife and i are going to pose some teen girls in a shoot and your poses really help! Thanks for making these videos to help us grow! 😎
Thank you!! That makes me so happy to hear, I hope you have an amazing shoot!
I love this new preset! Your photos are looking amazing. Thank you so much for sharing with us!:)
Thank you! 😄
As always great video and photoshoot Julia!
Thank you!
I appreciate you showing the raw vs the edited versions. Very cool.
liking the colors of both photo and video!
This is so good! The photos turned out gorgeous. I guess it doesn’t hurt to have a beautiful model as well. I’ve been shooting on the 85mm gm for a while now and am so happy your enjoying it
Thank you so much :) Yep I'm definitely really happy with this lens!
Beautiful location, photos, model and photographer
The photos with 100% are stunning!
Hi Julia , You are very good at giving direction to your models. Their being relaxed is reflected in the shots that are most impressive ! Stay Well. This was an excellent tutorial ! 👏
Thank you so much 😄
Those photos were amazing. That lens is insanely sharp but at the same time the bokeh is beautiful. I felt as though Julia had to give a bit more direction to that model than usual. It worked though because those photos are stunning. Great work and a great video.
Thank you so much!
The photos are so breathtaking!
Thank you
Finally I've been waiting for this one!
Yayay I hope you like it!
why did I read your bluebells preset EVERY. SINGLE. TIME as "blueballs preset"
Lmao not gonna lie it went through my head while naming it but hey, it's a win-win cute name but also low key funny 😬
I literally just read it like that in your comment lmao
Those photos with the red wall in the background are awesome!
Thank you!!
:85 1.2 has been one of my favourite lenses for a long time! Just bought one of the new 85 1.2 DS lenses! It only lets in the light of an f2 lens, but AMAZING bokeh!
Beautiful photos.
I’ve seen landscape photos on this lens and already knew this was an amazing lens. But damn! For portrait photography, this lens is SUPER sharp! 8:27 is my favorite and I feel like that is your signature style!
Thank you and yeah I really agree - this lens is sooo stunning! And thanks, that was one of my fav photos too :D
Wonderful shoot; the in-camera recording of how the poses looked to you as you snapped are extremely helpful. I’m about to head out and do a photo shoot and couldn’t picture well what to do with the model using the perspective of my 105mm, but this video has given me a lot. Thank you!
Thank you and that makes me so happy to hear!! Makes having the wifi recorder on my camera while shooting worth it haha. Good luck on your photoshoot!
Such a gorgeous session! The flare at 4:45 is perfection. I love all of your videos, they’re so helpful and you’re so talented. Do you ever use lens filters?
love your content! The behind scene helps me so much! because I am trying to decide between getting the 85m and 55m for portrait and now i know ill get the 85mm. Gives me some space between me and my client.
Thank you so much! I also have a video on my channel doing a photoshoot on the 50mm vs 85mm if you wanted to check that out too :) But yeah if you want some space between your client 85 is a good lens to choose!
Love this type of content keep it up💪🏽💪🏽
Thank you :)
Nice video your videos boost me to take better pics! Thank you very much!!!
Now during Corona times it's a good idea to use an 85 mm lens to keep the distance to your model. Smart thinking Julia. :-)
😂 even better would be the 135!
LOVE AS ALWAYS
Thank you!!
great work as always
Thanks!
Love your work Julia :) I have alot of the same gear and couldnt agree more, love your reviews :)
Thank you so much!
The shutter sound is so satisfying
The model is fantastic
Wow amazing photoshoot! Your videos are so inspiring for me. I wish we can go outside soon and this coronavirus thing ends very soon. My favorite location was the one of the trees and the branches as well
Thank you so much and I agree, I miss doing photoshoots outdoors! Stay safe :)
Julia, your photos and videos are so amazing. I learn so much from you, I'm so ready to find a model, run to the park and shoot. Thank you for sharing and teaching me your skills. BTW, I gave you a shoutout on my Instagram too.
Ahh thank you so much and yesss you should do it (as soon as it is safe to do so!). I'm really glad you enjoyed my video + thank you for the shoutout - it's always appreciated, especially in a time like this 😊
Amazing series!
Thank you :)
Great shooting session with the Sony 85mm 1.4. Thks
Thank you!
love ur model, she soo beautiful, love ur shoot too
I've missed the a7iii videos so much! Hope you're okay Julia, great video as always
I missed my A7III too haha, I'm finally getting some more lenses for it, so once self isolation is over I'm really excited to do more photoshoots on it!
Julia Trotti Yeah health first! Can't wait for the content 😁
Great video once again Julia - Would love to have a video where you talk about how you approach composition for portrait photography.
Thank you and yes I would really love to do that!
welcome to the 85mm Gmaster club!!!
Thank you I love it here! 😆
85mm is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Awesome video & flawless pics love your work. I’m doing a shoot this upcoming week and was deciding if I should rent this lens and this helped out a lot , definitely gonna try it out on my Sony a6300. Thanks 🙏🏾
Thank you so much, hope you enjoy using it!
Julia Trotti You’re welcome & thanks I hope it will do well although my camera isn’t full frame 😢 haha I’ll make it work 💪🏾
Thank you for the info
Great bts again Julia
Thank you!
Your photo style is absolutely amazing and i want to try an 85 1.4 so badly 😍😍 also hpw do you find such amazing people to model for you?
The most cute camera man!
I really enjoy your BTS Lens reviews.
Wow, such an awesome set of pics :) Also- did you jury rig a spare battery to the bottom of that a7iii? Looks like the Make.Art.Now setup.
love the skin color on these portraits, so good... btw, what are you using to record your screen? it looks like a smaller setup then ninja 5..
hi julia, your channel is great. Your job is very successful, you inspire people. I wish you continued success .. Greetings from Turkey.
Thank you so much 💛
Julia Trotti ♥️ 🙏🏻
awesome vid JT! love your style.. :)) btw have u tried tamron 28-75mm lens in a7iii?
Thank you!! No I haven't tried it yet but I would LOVE to! I've used the Tamron 35mm 1.4, 1.8 and Tamron 35-150mm and am super impressed with the quality of their lenses.
Wonderful work, Julia. I love this lens also. It's a really cheap one considering the quality it produces. Fully recommend in combination with a7r-iii.
Thank you and I agree, I was really surprised how crisp the photos turned out, reminded me a lot of my shots from the A7III. Can't wait to film a proper review video about it when I can be behind the camera, kinda hard to do that when you're not actually using the camera/lens haha 😅
HAHA omg I got confused and thought you commented on the video I posted yesterday 😂 Sorry if that totally confused you! Thank you again and I have my hands on the A7R4 at the moment, would absolutely love to try the two together
One day I'll have that lens.
Love the video, makes me want to get this lens as well, but what is that add-on underneath the camera?
I don’t think I’ve ever commented on your videos but I’ve followed you for a long time. Definitely appreciate the time and effort you put into your TH-cam channel! Quick question on the WiFi transmitter...when you are in live view, it automatically transmits whatever live view is showing? I would imagine that would work with the EOS R and eye af as well?
Unfortunately it doesn't work with Canon cameras, both mirrorless and DSLR's in live view. It's a Canon output issue, you loose viewfinder/LCD output as soon as you run a HDMI output. We're still working on a different solution for Canon.
Dan Podbierezki Interesting. So there’s no real way right now to record whatever live view is seeing on canon cameras? Maybe they will fix that with the R5.
Ooo it’s Lidija , she is with you
Awesome video, thank you! What video recorder while you are shooting are you using?
I'd like to know this as well. Ever figure it out?
😍😍😍😍
Hi Julia, I'm curious as to why you don't use the E-front curtain shutter. Is there a special reason for it? in this lighting situation for example? Love your work!!
Beautiful model + Talented Photographer = Great Images .. which device are u using on the camera to record the behind the scenes ?
Omg!!
I love this chanel!
Could you please make more mobile camera test?
Using, for example, the Xiaomi Mi Note 10 with a 108 Megapixels Camera!
I think it could be an interesting content in your chanel!
Nice job, I love your photos! :)
11:09 Beautiful shot 😊
Thank you, that was my favourite from the whole shoot!
😍😍
Did you make any other adjustments to colors or curves after applying the preset?
Hi julia, whats that wire connected to the camera is for?? Is it for recording the camera screen??
what is that recorder thing you has at the bottom of the camera? Also, I loved the rainbow flare at 4:44. It looks soo dreamy.
The flare looks way better than the modern green flare which I find ugly.
Hey mocha mocha, it looks like it's a Wifi HDMI Transmitter, like PFY EagleEye or Accsoon CineEye 1080P can't be totally sure tho.
Nicolas is right, its a wireless transmitter from Accsoon. And thank you, I loved that lens flare photo too!! I've never seen a rainbow flare like that before so even though it was super dirty (oops, I should have wiped my gear down) I took the time to edit out all the specks because it looked so interesting 😄
@@juliatrotti I've actually re-watched your video multiple times now because of how beautiful the lighting was in those photos. Also the video and music is on point.
Hey Julia, which do you prefer Sony G Master or Sigma 85mm???
It's amazing how much better these turned out than your EOS R photos from your beach photoshoot. Way sharper better colors and more dynamic range.
I would agree in this case, but to be fair we had REALLY bad conditions for that EOS R photoshoot on the beach. I honestly think any camera would have struggled to work with the colours and weird lighting we had on that day! A more fair comparison would be this photoshoot on the R: th-cam.com/video/FC5BRY6a_Ds/w-d-xo.html where we had a similar location and similar lighting :)
Really cool video!
I don't own the 1.4 version and it said to be less sharp at 1.4? I don't know... but it does look good.
Stay safe out there everyone.
Wash your hands
which is better overall camera between 5D Mark 4 and A73 ..Especially for photography ..pls repy me
Julia, I've always been a loyal fan of your videos and don't see that changing at all. The way you communicate with your models is so laid back and fun. You are an outstanding photographer. And, NOW - I'm sure you've had this request before, but I would love to see you hand off the camera and become the model in a full length shoot. You are so pretty and have a cute figure. Treat us one time please! xo
❤️❤️✔️
Круто!!!♥️
hey julia did you use any reflectors during the shoot ? or extras
Would be cool to see you shooting with Fuji, together with the 23 1.4 or 56 1.2. Thank you!
Nice tank you.
got that preset 👌
Thank you!
Brilliant video, camera and lens. What focus setting do you use on the a73
Thank you! I was using eye AF and I use servo modes :)
@@juliatrotti Thanks so much Julia
My dream cam n lens 😢
❤
BTS are the best kind of videos !
Aw thanks, they are my favourite to create too 😊
How do you get the photos so sharp when the lens is wide open? I have the same camera and the Sony 85 1.8 use eye auto focus but all my photos the nose is out of focus but most of yours bar a couple where her nose was out of focus her face mostly was in focus and you were using 1.4 and 1.6
Basically lots of practice with shooting wide open for many years! I have 2 videos up on my channel where I go into all the detail on how I focus in case you wanted to check them out :) That is basically what I do at every single photoshoot!
Julia Trotti I’ve seen them however they’re using your 5d dslrs and don’t have eye auto focus like the a7iii
I miss you 😍
Great video as usual Julia! Did you already review this lens and I missed it?? I'd love to hear your take on it. Cheers.
Thank you! Nope, you didn't miss it - this was going to be my review video on it but we ended up getting carried away during the shoot cos I was just having so much fun with our location, model and concept that I ended up deciding this was just going to be a creative behind the scenes :) Once the self isolation is over I will be making a review video though!
👏🏻👏🏻🌹
Your videos are awesome, thanks Julia 😊
Can i ask what focus area and what focus mode you use in this video?
And do you use any back button focus?
Thank you! I used eye af and when that didn't catch the eye, I had a small focus point I would move the eye instead. And from memory I'm pretty sure I was using servo AF :)
@@juliatrotti Thanks a lot ❤️❤️
What are you using to record your viewfinder??????
hi Julia, which one do you prefer a7iii or eos r ?
beautiful photos.. if possible make a comparison video with the zeiss batis 85mm
Thank you and yeah that's a good idea! As soon as self isolation is over I would love to 😊
