Watching this reminded me of how much I’ve missed photography. I haven’t picked up my camera since September when I had a client. I hate how the grind and hustle of trying to book potential clients and selling your work can take away from you loving your passion. So thank you. You won me as a subscriber just from one video because you reminded me of my love for photography.
Wow! 🥲🥲🥲 I am so happy to hear this! 💛 It’s my pleasure. I’m here to help keep the art of photography alive. It’s my life and passion. Thanks for subscribing and becoming part of the family 🤗
I believe if it’s a passion then you can’t stay away from it for long regardless, I have friends on FB that will say I’ve lost my mojo my response is no you haven’t you just haven’t seen anything to inspire you, keep clicking !!!
I try not to listen to people who tell me how things should and shouldn’t be done. For me photography is as much experimentation and trying things that are out of the box. I love the way you just explained what you believe works doesn’t work and why without telling people this is how you do it. Oh and I love the yellow dress. It catches the light in amazing ways, and you look really good in it.
Awwww thank you!!! Yes it really is tricky to help teach from my experiences without telling people what to do. I can only share what has worked for me and then hope it connects for someone. The title is definitely meant to capture attention and then my aim is that the meat aligns with what I say. Tough business on TH-cam but I love it so much. You guys all rock 💛📷
Probably the best explanation on how to choose a focal length. I also really enjoy your emphasis on the fact, that there is no right or wrong, but rather a case-by-case decision and personal feeling.
Hello from BC. Landscape photos I have used a 100-500mm lens at 500mm then take 3-5 images wide overlapping then stitch together. Make sure to set focus, switch lens to manual, set the other settings in manual so when you take the images exsposure is consistent. I have done the same thing but do 2-3 passes vertically then stitch making it like a much larger sensor. This gives the wide angle shot plus you can zoom in and crop areas you like after too. In doing this you don't need to bring along a wide angle lens unless the lighting is low and the big zoom does not have a wide aperture.
My favorite technique for capturing a big landscape where a classic wide angle won't do justice is to create a panorama, usually around the 50-70mm focal length. But I've used lenses from the old 80-200mm "magic drainpipe" to the 100-500mm RF lens, all depending how much compression I want in the final image or how far away the subject is. Of course, the best lens is the one you brought with you.
This is the first time I have seen your videos. You have such a contagious enthusiasm, so beautiful. I look foreward to seeing more of your work. Thank you for your effort.
I took a telephoto to Iceland and one of my friends didn't because he assumed that landscape was only wide angle... big mistake. So many shots out of large landscape areas. Great video!!
Wow! - amazing. Very simular to some UK photographers without the mountains. You are one great photographer - what an eye for light and composition Sarah Lyndsay. J
Beautiful shots and insightful advice! I've been shooting primarily scenic photography for decades now but never on a professional level, just mainly for the pure joy of witnessing and recording nature. I understand your excitement and admire your skill!
Thank you for being a quality landscape artist shooting in the US for us folks who can't travel to England or Iceland . Nice work and content as well .
Absolutley LOVE how you talk about you thoughts on photography but more than that I LOVE LOVE how you feel about it. Im just starting my journey but I related immediatley to the way your excitement flows out of you when you describe how being there makes you feel!!! Im 100% with you and have liked and subscribed.
i have a 70-200mm zoom probably the most under used lens as i have a 24-70 mm wide enough for landscape but can pull in a section great video, love the way you talk about the scene as opposed to talking at the viewer
A big thank you to whatever algorithm lead me to your YT channel! Fully subscribed now and I've hit the bell! Looking forward to more of your videos. -Take care!
Just discovered your channel! OMG!!!!! You're channel is different among other landscape photographer channel! You're video presentation and photos are just AMAZING! SUBBED!
Way back in my film days. I used two lenses. A 35-70 two step zoom and a 70-210. I tried 28mm but I didn't like results. My 35-70 was favorite. This lens gave me so many great photos.
I just got back from a trip where I pretty much shot everything with a sixteen to thirty-five and a 70 to 300. I didn't carry a focal length between them. It was interesting in that it made me choose between one or the other rather than split the difference.
Hello from the UK! I love that you shoot with the Canon 5D MK IV, I have that camera and love it. I feel I over use my 16-35 and neglect my 70-200, so after seeing this video, I will use my 70-200 more often now. Thank you so much!! Amazing channel - You've gained a sub! Looking forward to watching more of your videos! Alex
Sarah I'm sorry I didn't finish my commit most of landscape pictures have been taken with hiking groups so I need the flexibility of a my Sigma 18-250 Super Zoom so I can go wide to telephoto. The main issue with the len's is sun flares you can't get the lens anywhere near the sun and it's not weather sealed so no use in adverse weather conditions
I carry a 16-35/4 and a 70-200/2.8 in my landscape bag. Coming from wildlife photography using super teles, I wanted to include as much as I could in my landscapes so I’d be at 16mm a lot.
I agree with you! I've always gravitated toward wide angle lenses. I shoot micro 4/3, and carried a 11-22 zoom that got used incessantly. I replaced it with an 8-18 and the perspective is amazing. Then purchased a 50-200. that lens has been pretty much glued to my camera for over a year. It has really improved my composition. I will likely leave the 'normal' focal length lenses at home, and just carry the 8-18 and the 50-200. I kinda like views that are outside of what we normally see, with the naked eye. Would you consider doing a video with further detail on using long lenses? Most new users don't realize just how shallow the depth of field is,, and see it as a 'problem'. I find it a very creative tool for isolating a subject, or enhancing the light, or color of the scene. It takes a bit of experimenting, but that's what photography is all about eh?? Very nice video, thanks for putting it up!
Thank you so much for this excellent video. As a new hobby photographer on a budget, the glass i can afford for my 2nd hand Nikon D500 is rather limited. I have sort of avoided landscape photography as I did not think i had the right wide angle glass for it, but you have shown that i do not need an expensive wide angle lense.
I rarely like "epic" wide shots, but I do enjoy using a 50 to pano a shot (either vertically or horizontally) and get the same content in my frame, but with the perspective I see with my eye. To me it looks much better. However, once in a while an ultra wide shot can look good, but it usually takes away the majestic look of the real life scene, and sooo many people shoot wide that it's become a predictable formula. Also, amount of pixels and detail you get in a "wide", but not wide, panorama shot is amazing. Same field of view, much better perspective, and much more detail. It just takes some time and prep to do.
Just returned from the Canadian Rockies. What a beautiful part of the world. I was so lucky with the weather and the leaves changing color. The mountains and lakes are so impressive. And Canmore looks like an ideal place to live and work. I took the 16-35mm GM, 24-70 GM II, and 70-200mm GM II lenses. I would say that 90% of my shots were taken with the 24-70mm lens. If I had seen more wildlife, I would have used the telephoto more. In a couple of weeks it will be time to photograph Fall colors when the leaves peak in the Smoky Mountains near where I live.
That is a quite the line up!!! It’s also incredible how we are still in full peak colour 🔥🔥🔥 We have had such a unusually warm autumn. Not complaining! Enjoy the next leg of your photography journey and thanks for watching the video! 💛
Coincidentally, I was in Canmore in August with the same lens lineup minus the 70-200mm and I really missed it. I would have loved to have a little more reach for some mountain waterfall shots, and more intimate shots of peaks, etc.
Love this video and I’ll have to share it with a few of my friends who are just getting into photography. After the 10 years of shooting landscapes, architecture, and the mix, I’ve started to gravitate to specifically the abstract photos of landscapes that can come along when you just zoom right in, atmosphere and all (everyone worried about rendering resolution with this, don’t). It is so dramatic and the atmosphere in between you and the subject and the layers and the close up view from far away is amazing.
Great to see that somebody so young is out there getting experience, Sarah - Canada was somewhere that could only be seen in books when I was your age - Enjoy the ride
Hi Sarah - We just found your channel and have been enjoying watching some of your previous videos. You do beautiful work. Our introduction to you was the video with the very wet “yellow dress”. We have been hooked ever since. All the best Corinne and Shawn of the Travels of Red Rover.
Thanks Sarah for sharing your experience with great comments & location...yes I agree that different size lenses give a different perspective of a scene.....you explained this beautifully & thanks for the pics & comments... cheers from Australia 😀❤️
I might add the 100-400 to that kit for landscape photography just to compress the scene when I cannot get close enough to the subject and my 70-200 cannot get the shot. Thanks !
Very nice video and beautiful pictures too. I often carry just one camera and one prime lens, because limitations enhances creativity. On the other hand, bringing a set of primes or a couple of zooms gives freedom to compose whatever you want.
Very nice video, the wide angle lens is a lot of fun. I love taking my 200-600 to get any wild life we encounter. I have also been taking my anamorphic lens to make videos, it has been a lot of fun. Thank you for the video. I also like the music.
I carry a Tanrin 18-270, a Tamrin 70-300 and a Yongnuo 50 mm 1.8. None of those are very sharp, but they are affordable . The 70-300 is the lens that is always on, the 18-260 comes out when I fail to compose an image with the longer lens and the prime, unfortunately, was an impulse buy (second hand) and hardly ever gets used
I'm working on training my brain to decide first what my subject is. What is the reason why I want to take an image, and how can I emphasize that feature? My images used to be (and sometimes still are) just too busy. I'm trying to really simplify my images, as I believe that will better allow the viewer to understand why I took the image in the first place. Once I determine my image, then my choice of lens should be the one that helps me get the image I want. This sounds easy, but in practice requires a lot of patience, constant critical thinking, etc. And sometimes I'm just overwhelmed by the beauty and experience of the natural landscape, and just want to start firing away :) Definitely a journey...
I need help with my wide angle lens game! I gravitate to the tighter focal lengths, which is not bad, but I find the more I include the harder the composition becomes to maintain! Love this Sarah 💪
Ooooooohhhhh I love this actually! Someone who gravitates more towards the telephoto! Do you think this is because of your portrait background?? Thanks for watching Trent! I truly appreciate it 💛💛💛
@@sarahlyndsay I don't think so! I started shooting horses and cows really, and for that I needed reach, and I also liked the isolating effect! Now even in the mountains I'll grab the tele just to pull the details out of the landscape instead of the whole landscape. I'm just not that good with a wide, and I could use all the help I can get! I do love the 50mm. Thats probably my fav. Love what you're doing Sarah!
I just did a landscape photoshoot in Telluride, Colorado. I had never been there before wow I was so captivated by all the beautiful fall colors in this part of the United States! If you ever get the opportunity go there because you will get some incredible photographs! I’m happy I found your channel!🍁📷🍁
I agree with you that telephotos are great landscape lenses. And I find that my eyes see better in the narrower view of the telephoto. But, regarding that second example, I think what might have been really interesting is to take the shot with the telephoto, then, rather than stay in the same spot, walk forward and attempt to fill the screen the same amount with the wide angle. That way we can see the effect of the wider versus narrower field of view.
I know what you mean. I have 2 wide-angle lenses (Tokina 14-20mm F2 and Tamron 10-24mm). I usually carry one of these with me in my backpack when I go for a long walk. As for my telephoto lens. As much as I love to take it with me, it's just not that convenient because of the size and the weight. (Tamron 100-400mm) I really love the lens, but when I go for a long walk, I usually leave it at home and just bring the much smaller and lighter Canon 18-135mm... :\
Some great captures here with fantastic colours. I know exactly what you mean with the different lenses the really do change the image depending on which one you use. Thank you for sharing! I have subbed for your future videos
I am beginner in photography. I bought a used Sony A7s2. New 24-70 2.8 lens. I want to do street photography, shoot people/portraits. How much power flash would be enough to shoot outdoors? I would want to take this flash with me easily and during travelling. Should I go for on camera flash or off camera flash? This would be 1st flash that I would buy. What are your suggestions? Please also suggest softbox and tripod (either flash or camera would be on the tripod) to take with me in my luggage.
Hi Sarah, it is good to hear the opinion to see the techniques used by other photographers. You have some really good insight. Thank you for sharing. I will subscribe today.
Another beautiful video, Thanks for sharing! These Lens made such differences. I always have my wide angle Lens attached to the camera at all time (I mean I dont think i can survive without it, lol) But 70-200m definitely has its place. Knowing when and where to use comes with experiences like you said in the video as one progresses in their photography journey. I'm glad I invested in both Lens and they found their permanent spot in my camera bag. Keep sharing those epic moment and experiences of yours with us! :)
I am the exact same as you!! I mostly use my 16-35 but now reach for the 70-200 when the 16-35 won’t work! Thank you for watching. Appreciate it so much!
I have no idea how I’ve only just discovered your channel, Sarah! Absolutely loved this video 🙏🏼 looks like I’ve got a lot of other videos to catch up on 😍
Thanks for watching! I will have to look back and find the name. Usually my music licensing shares the song in the description but thinking I will have to do that manually for you guys 😊
Even with the most sophisticated IS I would never use a 70-200 with the camera mounted on the tripod head. Use the tripod mount ring, less chance of camera shake and a lot less stress on the mount plus tripods movements won't be as severe, making slight adjustments in composition easier. Nice pics!

@@sarahlyndsayMy favorite was your third composition on your zoom without sky in the image. Really draws the eye into the scene
70-200 is definitely my favorite focal length range, it’s so versatile, landscape, city scape, portraits, it does it all
I try not to listen to people who tell me how things should and shouldn’t be done. For me photography is as much experimentation and trying things that are out of the box.
I love the way you just explained what you believe works doesn’t work and why without telling people this is how you do it.

Very nice, clear demonstration of your theme. Thank you. Now, I would like to see more about how you created the closing images.
I use the wide angle lens to give an overal view of the landscape and then move to zoom/telephoto lens to show parts of the landscape up close.
Way back in my film days. I used two lenses. A 35-70 two step zoom and a 70-210. I tried 28mm but I didn't like results. My 35-70 was favorite. This lens gave me so many great photos.
I totally agree using a telephoto for landscapes…again…
depending on what you want on the end results…thank you for sharing ..stay blessed
I just got back from a trip where I pretty much shot everything with a sixteen to thirty-five and a 70 to 300. I didn't carry a focal length between them. It was interesting in that it made me choose between one or the other rather than split the difference.
You just didn’t shoot a 50. Not really limiting as you used zooms.
Did enjoy that i use my sigma18-300 lens works for me thank you.
Sarah you are an amazing photographer and teacher. Thank you.
Please suggest your outdoor tripod
Great video. Thanks for posting. I have a 14-24, 24-105 and a 100-400 in my kit.
Thank you Sarah. Very nice and useful video.
This video is excellent because I am guilty of leaving my 70-200 lens at home. Knowing I needed it it. I missed so many great shots.
I totally used my 70 to 200 with landscape you get such a tighter image of course what you talked about in your video. 🙂
Hello from the UK!
I love that you shoot with the Canon 5D MK IV, I have that camera and love it.
I feel I over use my 16-35 and neglect my 70-200, so after seeing this video, I will use my 70-200 more often now.
Thank you so much!!
Amazing channel - You've gained a sub!

I'm sorry I didn't finish my commit most of landscape pictures have been taken with hiking groups so I need the flexibility of a my Sigma 18-250 Super Zoom so I can go wide to telephoto. The main issue with the len's is sun flares you can't get the lens anywhere near the sun and it's not weather sealed so no use in adverse weather conditions
I carry a 16-35/4 and a 70-200/2.8 in my landscape bag. Coming from wildlife photography using super teles, I wanted to include as much as I could in my landscapes so I’d be at 16mm a lot.
The 85 mm often works well for the Jackson Hole Valley foreground and Grand Teton Mountain background. Good split between the two vistas.
Fantastic information! I could listen to you talk all day. Much respect.

What's your camera. I know that its a Canon but what's it's model?
UWA is most applicable when you are trying to merge a foreground element with the distant background.

That would have been quite the walk for her then... :)
I like shooting portraits with my A7RIV, but this made me want to get out and shoot some landscapes too!
Just found your site, now subbed and"hello"from North East Scotland. 👍😎
Wooooohoooo!!! Happy to have you here! 💛 Scotland!!! What a dream 😍
I know what you mean. I have 2 wide-angle lenses (Tokina 14-20mm F2 and Tamron 10-24mm). I usually carry one of these with me in my backpack when I go for a long walk.
As for my telephoto lens. As much as I love to take it with me, it's just not that convenient because of the size and the weight. (Tamron 100-400mm) I really love the lens, but when I go for a long walk, I usually leave it at home and just bring the much smaller and lighter Canon 18-135mm... :\
Really Really Really like seeing you back on TH-cam. Great content and amazing images. Greetings from Kelowna, BC
Thank you so much my friend! Happy to be here!! 💛📷 Slowly but surely moving forward with the channel
Nice work Sarah. l just discovered your channel today. I’ve subscribed and will check out some of your videos. Cheers!
I use the Canon 24-105 exclusively. Sometimes I make it work for me. Use what is available to you!
Fantastic. And inspirational. Thank you so much.
The Trees aren't the star of the show Sarah Lyndsay...... You Are!! 🌟
There are awasome pictures congratulations 👏
Great video idea.
Amazing video thanks for tips.
Some great captures here with fantastic colours. I know exactly what you mean with the different lenses the really do change the image depending on which one you use. Thank you for sharing! I have subbed for your future videos
I am beginner in photography.
I bought a used Sony A7s2.
New 24-70 2.8 lens.
I want to do street photography, shoot people/portraits.
How much power flash would be enough to shoot outdoors?
I would want to take this flash with me easily and during travelling.
Should I go for on camera flash or off camera flash?
This would be 1st flash that I would buy.
What are your suggestions?
Please also suggest softbox and tripod (either flash or camera would be on the tripod) to take with me in my luggage.
Hi Sarah, it is good to hear the opinion to see the techniques used by other photographers. You have some really good insight. Thank you for sharing. I will subscribe today.
When you say the FL numbers are you referring to full frame or APS-C ?
Those were some stunning photos! Great job!
Another beautiful video, Thanks for sharing! These Lens made such differences. I always have my wide angle Lens attached to the camera at all time (I mean I dont think i can survive without it, lol) But 70-200m definitely has its place. Knowing when and where to use comes with experiences like you said in the video as one progresses in their photography journey. I'm glad I invested in both Lens and they found their permanent spot in my camera bag. Keep sharing those epic moment and experiences of yours with us! :)
I am the exact same as you!! I mostly use my 16-35 but now reach for the 70-200 when the 16-35 won’t work! Thank you for watching. Appreciate it so much!
Great vision beautiful work
I have no idea how I’ve only just discovered your channel, Sarah! Absolutely loved this video 🙏🏼 looks like I’ve got a lot of other videos to catch up on 😍
great shots , lovely dress
Very well done! Tell me,what’s the music you’re playing in the video near the beginning? Solo piano, about 1 min into the video.
Thanks for watching! I will have to look back and find the name. Usually my music licensing shares the song in the description but thinking I will have to do that manually for you guys 😊
Really helpful tips! Thanks!
Even with the most sophisticated IS I would never use a 70-200 with the camera mounted on the tripod head. Use the tripod mount ring, less chance of camera shake and a lot less stress on the mount plus tripods movements won't be as severe, making slight adjustments in composition easier. Nice pics!
Yep I know 🤓 I had to use my plate for something else and typically handheld shoot with my 70-200. Thanks for watching!! 💛
Thank you Miss, Well done
You do beautiful work.
you are my favorite ! Love your energy and passion for photography
Thank you Tristan!! 💛💛💛
Some great thoughts there. Thank you.
Curious about no eyecup. Are you not using one since your shooting Liveview?
Very useful video! Inspiring. Do you think 100-500 would be a good option too, instead of 70-200?
I want them all. I think we need an 11-500 2.8 😂😂 In all seriousness, I have been eyeing up the 100-400 but I’m still pretty content with what I have.
Great video Sarah. Thanks for sharing 😊👍👍
Thanks for watching!! 💛💛💛
