Today we're at a full day of wedding photography with the Sony A7 IV (Sony A74, A7m4) and using just the Tamron 35-150mm f2-2.8 lens. It's a variable aperture lens, which means at 35mm it's f2, then at 50mm it's f2.2 then around 85mm it's f2.8.
Overall for wedding photography, this is an incredible lens. I will for sure be using it again in the future.

So much gold here on how to confidently but politely direct people. I've said so many times that confidence is the single greatest attribute a wedding photographer can have - but you can't be a jerk about it.
I remember when sigma and tamron were terrible budget options, they have come so far in the last 7 ish years. This lens sounded great when it was announced, versatile range and a fast aperture for a variable lens. Looks like a solid choice for that do anything lens
Not forgetting the new Samyang 135 f1.8 which is rumoured to be as sharp as the Sony GM
I have exact the same set up in 2022 I shot about 35 weddings so far on the beach… I love it, gotta be aware of shooting against the sun and that flare… I got this set up for first time in rainy day and wind over 20 miles an hour… Held up okay fantastic!
Lens review aside (which was also really good and had great review points) this video is absolutely fantastic for a general wedding shoot with great tips and pointers for all aspects of the day/profession/role, not just for shooting. Really well done, love it.
This is my setup (a74 & 35-150) I use for weddings! What a game changer for me not to have to switch lenses all day. I’ve shot photo and video for several weddings with the combo and it does such an amazing job.
how is this lens for Video??
@@sathiyaceelanphotography Autofocus in video is fast and smooth (no hunting). I love how it transitions between subjects - look so good. Very accurate! The lens is also very sharp, even at f2-2.8. I have owned so many great lenses over the years, this one is easily my favorite.
I'd add a small'ish 16-35F4, or a really tiny Tamron 24F2.8, which also doubles as an excellent macro'ish lens. I did a wedding once with just the Tamron 28-75 on an A7III. Ended up cropping in too much for certain shots. This 35-150 is a game changer.
@@elementalview1 I always have my Tamron 17-28 f2.8 in my bag, but have yet to need that wide of a shot. It’s nice to have just in case though, and I love the 17-28 lens anyway.
@@RyanKemperinOhio thanks bro ., what about IBis ? This lens don’t have stabilizer ., is it too shaky? Or Sony stabilizer is enough ?
Thank you so much for doing a video talking about this lens!!! Now it’s going to be on my wishlist!!!
I did a senior couple shoot at a park recently and showed up with a bag of lenses and never took the Tamron 35-150 off the camera once. It's a wonderful lens with great glass, is very fast, and tack-sharp. I still love my Sony 16-35, an exceptional lens for wide angle, to use for those tight and wide shots. But I can easily see how you can now get by with just this one lens for assignments like this.
Shade white balance has been life changing for my weddings photography. Thank you again for another amazing tip!
Could you expand on this a bit more? I must have missed it in the video
@greenbarn.videography there's really not much to say. I simply keep my white balance on "shade" 99% of the time that I'm outside. It just makes my editing process easier. Obviously you can change the WB In post (and I do) but auto WB Is too unreliable. And I like the warmer look of shade. So when I get my photos into lightroom and they are already close to how I want the WB, it just makes it easier. Hard to explain. It really doesn't do anything. Other than make the process of shooting easier because I'm not fumbling around trying to set the WB.
Got it when it first came out! Only reason why I own a Sony camera now. 😂📸 best lens ever 🙌🏽
THANK YOU...This is how it is supposed to be. Great images...GREAT commentary..NO nonsense comparisons between camera brands and formats.I just wanted to do backflips and cheer...
What a beautiful wedding I enjoyed all the beautiful wedding ❤❤
That lens definitely is a good all in one setup. I've been a lover of prime lenses lately. I use to rock the typical 24-70, and 70-200 for my go to.. Then I switched to a 24 1.4 and a 135 1.8 and i've never looked back. Tack sharp photos, great for video, low light is amazing and the bokeh is just on another level.
I know primes is a different league. Sorry to admit here, but your right. It’s more work and 2 cameras helps but primes is better. But the zoom is so easy. I’ll give ya that
I went the other way around, I bought 14mm, 20, 35, 50, 85, 135 prime lenses. Now my most used lenses are 24-70 and 150-500 while I sometimes compliment them with 14, 24 and 135mm. Sold the 20 and 50, want to sell the 35 as well.
Amazing work.. thanks for the tips and tricks...learned a lot
This is such a good video!! I’ve learnt so much from this. Thank you 🙏
Great video!!! I use the 28-75 and 70-180 on the other body. Looking forward to trying the big boy!
Awesome content man!
I used the Tamron 35-150mm f2-2.8 last weekend at a convention. Great lens!
Thanks buddy great video
love it!🥰
Love the video….Nice!
This is great!
The lens is sick 🔥
Wow this truly does look like the perfect lens… think I need this and omit many others…
I got introduced to this lens by a college at a photoshoot , I have to say its plus, no to have to switch lenses for weddings hell yeah ! . I have have shot a lot of weddings with my 24-105 F4 and at the end of the wedding I noticed that the lens swap was very minimal to almost non ! it was a bit of a weird feeling lol ,
Great review! Interested with this lens + the Sony A1. Not sure if it will cap the 30 FPS like most 3rd party lenses.
Curious if you can use a macro extension tube with it to do some macro shots.
I have my A7iv setup the same way even with the aps-c mode on my c1. Just a tip that I got from Dan Fox. Try setting the zebras on the camera at 102 and that way you’ll know if you are blowing out any of the white while in auto iso. This camera has so much dynamic range I haven’t had a situation where I could bring back an underexposed image even 3+ stops if you just turn either the iso down or exposure compensation dial.
Also, I love the shutter sound on the a7iv. It’s so satisfying.
I have this same setup it’s dope!
Dude. Digging those sunglasses 😎
I’m using the 35-150 paired with a Sony 20mm 1.8 for a wedding on Friday!
This is very nice kit
AMAZING, was about to buy some new primes but think I will pick this one up!
It’s such a hard call haha. Very much enjoy primes as well
This video helped me a lot to choose the Tamron 35-150/2-2.8 and get rid of 2 primes and also Tammy 70-180/2.8 🫶
love your video sir
Vary NYC work and good camra and lens
Thank you so much for this great video. Do you always use auto-iso ? and what do you think is the benefit on using it ?
Loved the band reference 😂👍
You make me laugh. Gorgeous work
Ah perfect Taylor, I got this lens and sold all my other other lenses except Tamron 17-28 f2.8. Two lenses to do it all lol See you in September mate.
Oh hey, thanks for the shoutout haha
Hahah
Thanks!
What an amazing set up! Could this lens also be used for portrait photography?
Also, Leica has an adaptive ISO mode on their SL2 series that will keep a base ISO and boost it up as a variable aperture lens zooms in. Freaking brilliant. If Sony did this, I’d buy this so fast.
What! I’ve wanted this so bad. It would make the tamron 35-150 on Sony even more powerful.
great work , still waiting for my lens to come ( low stocks in the uk)
What an informative video! I'm an A7Siii video guy, not a wedding photographer and I've got a question about your photo developing. In the video when you're taking photos you're adding the photograph to the video to show the audience. The photos seem much brighter than the video...is that a choice you're making in post? They're clearly not overblown...but they're...artistically bright? Again, love your stuff...just curious.
love you bro. your ideals is nice.
The new car is way better for interior recording Taylor. 💯 Honestly wish more photographers would make videos like your's. Gear reviews are starting to get a little long in the tooth, but when you actually use the thing, so much better.
Curious how you run the gopro for these videos. Just basic info like, how many extra batteries are you using ? charging during break times ? lasts all day? Thanks ! love the content always.
Absolute favorite lens! Bringing it out to Banff.
It is going to do very nice things for you there!
Thanks for the video! I'm thinking about switching from Fujifilm to Sony with this lens, and now I'm pretty sure I should do this!
It's a pretty crazy lens. Really wish it could exist for other systems.
Tamron's making lenses for Fuji already. Although it's a different factor, it's just a matter of time until something like this shows up.
@@pedropulido4570 yes, but 35-150mm f2-2.8 for now is the King only for Sony ;)
Great review on this lens as it is one of the main reason why I switched to the Sony FF body over all the other FF camera manufactures. When paired with the new Sony A7RV with 8-stop IBIS, the 60MP FF with the sharp Over Sampling 26MP APS-C images that is sharper than the 33MP image from the A7IV while still providing incredible flexibilities that covers most of my needs.
Tamron 35-150mm f/2.0-f/2.8 focal range including in APS-C mode:
@ f/2.0: 35mm-39mm (APS-C range: 52.5mm - 58.5mm / Total available range: 35mm - 58.5mm)
@ f/2.2: 40mm-59mm (APS-C range: 60.0mm - 88.5mm / Total available range: 40mm - 88.5mm)
@ f/2.5: 60mm-79mm (APS-C range: 90.0mm - 118.0mm / Total available range: 60mm - 118.0mm)
@ f/2.8: 80mm-150mm (APS-C range: 120.0mm- 225.0mm / Total available range: 80mm - 225.0mm)
I prefer carry this one lens than have to miss precious moments during lens swapping, not to mention dealing with increasing frequency of sensor cleaning and dust entering into different lenses and while have to carry the weight of all the extra lenses on a much larger and heavier camera bag.
Mr. Jackson, love your work. Do you use a filter while taking photos? Are you shooting in raw?
I've always wished for a 35-50 F2, or even better, a 35-85 F2. I think those would be hugely popular.
i'd take the 35-85 f2 in a heartbeat. that would cover every single possible focal length / aperature combination I need in my fantasy/viking shootings !
I’m pretty sure sigma makes that
I'd pay big money for a 35-85 f/2. Or even 35-80 f/2. That'd eliminate the need to lug around two bodies with a 35 and 85.
Canon 28-70mm is tempting but 70 just falls short at the telephoto end.
How did it perform with detail shots? I'm hesitant to get rid of my Tamron 28-75 G2 given its minimum focusing distance.
What focus setting would you be using? Spot with eye AF?
This was a great day. Also that officiant was VERY nice and quite funny too. I want to return to this church and be his friend.
There was a distinct lack of turkey bagel sandwiches today though
@@TaylorJacksonPhoto next time. I’ll make it a tradition from now on. Even if the sandwhich gets nasty sitting in the hot car waiting to be included in the video. I’ll still eat it for the content
Just home and decompressing from shooting a wedding, mainly with my 35mm GM, and 85mm 1.8, alongside a hired 135 GM, and occasional Samyang 24mm for wide and dancing on two A7ivs.
First wedding season with the Sonys, moved from Fujifilm and I’m loving the gear. Always been ‘a prime guy’ 🤮 hate that term, but this lens really, really interests me. I’d looked at the 135, liked it today a lot….but maybe this is the next purchase.
Any feedback appreciated Taylor!
As someone who owns it, not only will you get “the shot” more often, you’ll enjoy your day so much more. Less to think about!
@@RyanKemperinOhio thanks man. It’s defo something to think about!
I love old cars for weddings. I had a couple that drove a model T Ford and we got some of the most epic wedding photos with it. I’m excited to get my new 35-150 for my two weddings I have coming up. Are usually use a 35 mm and 85 mm F1.4 throughout the day. And when I do the couples solo shoot I try to incorporate the 135 mm F1.8 GM for some of the shots. But seeing I’m gonna have all these focal links in one lens I am curious what I should use for my second body. The widest that I have is the 24-70 F2.8 so I’m wondering if I should have that on my second body or still keep my 85 mm F1.4 for those nice crisp bokeh shots
Love your "review"! Great work, mate!
After working with this lens for about 18 months on all kinds of different assignments I am still looking for a flaw because I simply can't wrap my head around what Tamron did here. I was a prime shooter for years (outside the 200-600 G) and wasn't happy with the occasional need for the 24-105 F4. It is a very good (and more importantly stabilized) lens that does an amazing job but I was missing the shallow depth of field and 105mm never felt that much more than 70mm to me. Now 150mm F2.8 are something wild for below € 2.000,-- (central european price back in spring 2022). This lens practically lives on my a7iv while I use the a7r3 with the 20mm F1.8G for the wide angle shots. One big main cam combined with a small one for wide angle. Works perfect for me, though, I am looking forward to exchange the a7r3 for an r5 or the upcoming a7v and maybe getting the 12-24 Sony or 14-24 Sigma for the wide angle stuff.
Overall: If you are a working photographer in the field of ANYTHING --> Get this lens as a workhorse or even as a backup. It covers a lot of prime lenses and there is yet to come a customer to me that complains that I am not shooting with the newest G Master lineup 🤭
Hi taylor. What is that mount or frame you use to attach the gopro to your camera?
Super cool. I like your style, man ! I couldn't help but wonder how many exposures you took for this wedding ? 1000 ??
Great video! Thank you. By the way how are you recording your camera like that?
Great content as always mate, did you miss the 1.2’s 1.4’s and is there any reason you’re not using Electronic shutter? I used mechanical all the time on the A7iii because electronic was trash but I thought the A7iiii was much improved!? I’m on the A9ii now so pretty much always using Electronic silent unless of course I’m batting low quality LED lights!
As far as I know A7IV doesn't have a stacked sensor as A9/A9II/A1 do. So the read out speed is not so high.
is 35mm is wide enough for wedding photography ? or do I need even wider ?
What bracket is that that you have connected to your GoPro
Whats the app u used to track sun ?!
hi Taylor, Great Video but I have a question, does this lens have auto aperture change while zooming?
I am a Indian wedding photographer and is this lens great for an all-in-one type lens
hey what is the name of the L mount where u mount your gopro from the bottom of the camera screw thread?
I just got my 35-150 (after months of waiting), and I love it so far. (Commenting on the off topics of the video: I'm from Hungary, and love the band Architects. :D)
I use the Tamron 35-150mm f2.8-f4 on my Nikon Z5 and Z50. That is a great lens too, fast and sharp. It is available for Nikon and Canon
Do you know if the ibis is working with the lens?
@@sunesnigel yes it does
Hey Taylor, what color are your frames and lenses? Rayban RB2180 is the model right?
It's a great lens and I've been thinking about buying it. But it's pretty heavy and doesn't perform well in direct lighting so I went for the Sigma 24-70 f2.8 art lens that I can also use as a travel lens, that lens in combination with the 135mm f1.8 GM gives everything you need at a wedding with shallow depth of field for the portraits and a wider fov compared to the 35mm of the Tamron. Still waiting for the 85mm 1.2 though.
Reviews on TH-cam show that the Sigma 24-70 also suffers in direct lighting. The thing I dont like about Sigma is the bokeh quality, I highly prefer Tamron over Sigma in this respect. The 135mm GM is a dream.
@@firpofutbol I kinda like the bokeh quality on the 24-70, I also have the 105 macro and the bokeh is one of the best I've seen. Pretty similar to the 135mm 1.8 GM
Where you in face/eye detect mode? It looks like you just shooting without moving focus points. Also how high did your auto ISO get to in church. Wonderful video. ❤
Tamron has an older version for canon and nikon but its 2.8-4 which is still amazing I use it now on my R7.
Probably a lot lighter as well hah. This thing gets heavy.
Yes its like half the weight 😆
How does it perform on the R7? I used it with R5 and R6 and would freeze the camera all the time, got the lens reviewed here with a a7IV and love in it so far (except it got dirty inside in 2 months :( ) - its noted in tampons website that there are compatibility issues with mirrorless cameras-
You sold your Sony a7rii?
I really love tack sharp photos so we use primes.. but this lens looks amazing on TH-cam. How did you think the sharpness compares in Lightroom?
I think (pro) zooms like this have pretty much caught up to primes. They’re just heavier and won’t give you a 1.4 depth of field
How much do you charge for a wedding like this?
Hey Taylor, I just moved into the world of Sony and have been debating which lense to buy. Initial thought was to get the sigma 24-70 but with this Tamron 35-150, I have been in two minds. I shoot portraits & sports. Any recommendations.
That is really a good range for a wedding. I wondered if 35 mm was wide enough, but it seems that it is. A big thumbs up. Clearly, 70-200 requires at least two lenses. The only question: Is 35 wide enough?
I think it is. I usually shoot a 35 prime on one body and an 85 on another. I have a 16 in the bag, but I use it for maybe 1 photo every 3 weddings
I have been thinking about trading in me 24-70 GMaster for this fella and now I'm sold. Thanks mate .... still using me 85mm for weddings as well though 😅
I know you weren't doing hybrid coverage with the lens, but would you have any hesitation using it for video coverage as well? Picks look great!
Just depends on a7iv buffer speed that I haven’t tested again since update
I have started my career as a wedding photographer and i bought sony a7m3 with kit lens 28-70 f3.5-5.6 and i am planning to buy a new lens because i have some shoots so i am bit confused which lens to purchase price lens 35mm f1.8 or 85mm f1.8 or should I buy tamron 70-180 f2.8 ?
15:27 what was settings there, f stop? Everything in focus, beautiful!
I’ve been on a waiting list for 8 months 😭
I feel you about the church having good lighting and no ridiculous signs in the background! Love your videos
I’ve been waiting on you to talk about this lens!! Thanks for the BTS. I found it really helpful. Would you recommend this lens over the 70-200 GM II? I’m already running the Sony GM 24, Zeiss 55, and Zeiss Batis 85 in my kit.
This vs the 70-200 is a hard call. I'd say for ceremonies, I do prefer this to a 70-200. Then have one of the C buttons set to APSC mode. I think it is heavier than the 70-200 though and larger
Thanks@@TaylorJacksonPhoto ! I like that you mentioned the APSC mode because I already have that mapped to my C1 button and use it a lot. I also don't feel like I have the steadiest hands, so I was previously considering the 70-200 for the OSS to let me slow down that shutter speed that tiny bit more if I need to. Or from your experience, would there not be enough of a difference in the OSS to have that as a deciding factor? (Sorry for the million questions 😅)
Nice captures, I'm impressed. You're kicking a few cows with this Tamron lens. I started using a 24-120mm f4 on my Z 5, which is doing great for all types of subjects, so far. I'm waiting for the Japanese 3rd party lens makers to get some glass for the Z mount. It's like they're asking Sony for permission...
I'm using this lens on my Nikon Z with the Megadap ETZ21 adapter and loving it.
Sir Tayloy, did you switch to sony?
I love Architects UK!
My fav lens! Super versatile for video
Yah, this is very ideal for video all day
I hope they will make for canon mount.
how you feel the weight of this lens for all the wedding day? it was heavy? Thanks!!
Yah it’s heavy. It made my index finger hurt haha
The Ferrari pitstop jibe is on point 😄
Man it’s relevant again for like the 10th week in a row
In Manual Mode, is there a way to make it so the aperture is always at its widest when switching between focal lengths on a variable aperture lens? Or were you just continually manually adjusting every time you zoomed in/out?
I just set it to widest and it usually stays with widest while I zoom.
What shutter speed do you use please? And when the couple is walking do you use continuous shooting mode ?
All the settings are over on the members site in a video under the weekly content
02:58 Vamos Checo!! Hungaroring? Good gag about Ferrari pit stop :D
Your work is looking so good on this shoot!!
I can’t wait for you to review this lens for hybrid coverage. Does it work handheld for some video??
this lens would be a game changer for me,ok its expensive,but this would change this struggle for me to change lenses as im shooting with one camera in a weddings,because hate two cameras.
So did this lens become a mainstay in your arsenal or are you back to shooting mainly with a 35 and 85?
It’s for sure my ceremony lens when using Sony. It did a weird tilt shift error in September and it required warranty service. So I’m still getting back to trusting it.
Hey an F1 fan cool - and you were in Burlington - I was by the lake Saturday - well after the F1 qualy - and I shoot R6 and A7IV - except I don't do wedding photos - no people skills - so I stick with more static subjects like hills and flowers ... but I always watch your videos. Something new to learn every time. Your friends 911 Porsche video was my favorite. I wonder if you follow Kill illman - the F1 youtuber and F1 photog.
Are your presets for a specific program like Lightroom or do they work with any photo editor?
Lightroom classic but should also work with photoshop
I need this in an RF. Badly! Lol!!!
