Let me know in the comments what kinds of dog photography videos you want to see next!
The 135mm perspective is always so special. One thing to remember is, that you can get the "same" look with any 135mm lens (from any manufacturer) but you won´t get the same autofocus performance. Static shots are no problem but e.g. shots of a running dog (or any moving subject) are usually achieved only with the higher end, and more expensive lenses. That Sony 85mm 1.8 is really, really good for the price.
Absolutely correct. Nikon bodies certainly don't respond well with third party lenses when shooting with Auto-Focus and using the AF back button - definitely something to bear in mind.
@@b7730 yep for sure. I don’t like going specifically into one brand or another because so many camera brands have different lens models that work or need adapters etc so was avoiding opening that Pandora’s box 😅
I agree that primes are generally more affordable than zooms. However, I would recommend starting with the 70-200mm 2.8 lens and gradually expanding your collection. That way, you can build a versatile setup that suits your needs.
Great video and excellent advie as awlays
@@PhilSledge yes possibly! I had a 70-200 for a while however once I got my 85mm (and afterwards, my 135mm) I never used my 70-200mm again 😂
The Viltrox 85mm f/1.8 is an amazing lens for a very cheap price! I got a used one for £250 and it's 95% as good as the Nikon version that costs a lot more.
Recently my cousin lent me his 70-200mm f4 lens. Having been only using 35 and 50 in the studio, the 70-200 allows me to take pictures outdoors for a better shot. I wish I could get a 2.8 or 1.8 in the future, as I do struggle with ISO with the f4 having to push it up to 3200-6400, but it's still nice having a 70-200 to play with.
Ive used a canon eos rebel t18, and honestly, ive got some really good photos off of it. editing makes a HUGE difference tho.👍🏻
What you say about the camera body and the lens is absolutely right. I use a Nikon D3 (2007 ancient lump: £300 second hand) with the latest Nikon 70mm-200mm F2.8E FL ED VR2 (£2,000). Absolutely stunning lens and very, very fast with beautiful bokeh.
It's crazy right?! I think camera companies do such a good job marketing cameras, and encouraging people to get new cameras, when what people should be putting their attention toward (more often than not) is a better lens! NOT a new camera with another kit lens!
@@InspawrationPhotography - Could not agree more. The D3 has its limitations being a 2007 body but with the newest and best 70mm-200mm lens it shines.
Another great video and I am so pleased you have highlighted the importance of good quality lenses over the newest, latest camera body. Thank you 😊
Love the images, but what about DOF with f1.8, how much of the dog is in focus?
@@TheWescombe how long is a piece of string 😉 if I’m far away, all of the dog will be in focus. If I’m doing head and shoulders, then probably just the eyes. Which is fine by me. I don’t care if the nose is out of focus. That isn’t where I want my audience to look 😉
I have the Sigma 85mm f1.4 DG DN for my dog photography business I would love the sony 135mm but I feel like it could be restricted because it's too long of a focul length I'm just not sure but the sigma is very sharp👍
I think the Sigma is sharp! It's slower than the Sony so not great for action photos but for portraits it's perfectly fine. You could look into renting a 135mm to see if the focal length is for you!
What the 135 like if you want to catch a fast moving dog. I am looking at the Sony FE 70-200mm f2.8 G Master OSS II or the Sony 135
@@timtog the 135mm is an extremely fast lens! The 70-200 ii is also great. I know Chris van riel who is a friend of mine & action photographer who has been doing a series of webinars thru my site, uses the 135mm rather than a 70-200mm. So the 135mm is definitely a great lens for action if you can be close enough (it’s not ideal for agility or disc etc necessarily as you’re a bit too far away, but then even 200mm can be a bit short in that case!)
