      Behind the scenes videos with photographers are kind of rare in my experience. People are self conscious and don't want to be seen while they work, I think. But they are some of my favorite videos to watch because I learn so much from them and gain new persepectives! I say, "more behind the scenes videos!!"

    • @OmarEltakrori

      depends on your budget but I would definitely look into entry level full frames for getting into weddings. 6D is a great camera also the a7ii

      I have taken lots of pictures outside but friends are asking me if I could do some indoor pictures of their kids/family. Any ideas on what light, flash would I be able to use which is good quality but doesn't cost an arm an a leg please.

    • @OmarEltakrori
      @OmarEltakrori  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      1 of two things, if you have a prime lens with low aperture preferably 35 (because of tight spaces) you can get by without a light source other than natural window light. I did two home shoots recently and brought no lighting and just a white deflector to bounce some light and photos came out more natural than actually using a flash setup. Test some shots in your own house with a subject and see how far you can push your cameras settings.

    • @zuzuwood
      @zuzuwood 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have Nikon d3100 which I had for many years and have two lenses 18-55 (f3.5-f5.6) and 55-300mm (f4.5-5.6). Background is usually a little grey but I haven't used the reflector just yet. I'm not sure if this would fix the problem. Should I invest in a new lense with f1.8? Sorry for too many questions 🙈😂

    • @OmarEltakrori
      @OmarEltakrori  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      yea 3.5 is pretty dark to begin with forcing you to increase the iso to compensate. definitely try a 30/35 prime -- if theres a lens rental place near or look for used gear on offer up or ebay. BUT i can tell you 90% of what I shoot is on a prime lenses, also your camera has a crop sensor so nother higher than a 35mm. theres a pretty affordable 35 1.8 for a bit more theres a Sigma 30mm F1.4 Art definitely can find great deals on ebay

      totally doable, some kind of light source may be necessary for reception - even if its a LED light and not a flash

    @uldisstepanovs 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi Omar, great channel and appreciate your work! I have a question, why are you mainly using 55 1.8 lens instead of Sony Zeiss 35 1.4? Is it because of a weight or you just prefer 55mm focal length instead of 35? I know that you have 35 2.8, but why not 35 1.4 as a main lens for your work. Thank you!

    • @OmarEltakrori
      @OmarEltakrori  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I find the 35mm a tad wide when shooting portraits -- I do think the 35mm in general is a great focal length for primes however, i would resort to a 35mm for setting shots

    • @uldisstepanovs
      @uldisstepanovs 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Can I ask your professional opinion about following wedding scenario -- 35 1.4 would be used for the most part of a day and for the portrait shots just switching camera to APS-C mode, which would make this 35mm to 50mm. Would one lens 35 1.4 on these terms could be theoretically enough for wedding coverage? I'm thinking of which lens to buy as my first Sony lens and to build my way up. Should I go for 35 1.4 or 55 1.8. What lens would you choose? - keeping in mind wedding scenarios. Thank you!

    • @OmarEltakrori
      @OmarEltakrori  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      you are right i would agree with you. a 35 can totally be a full workhorse for weddings -- for your first sony lens i can only speak for the 55 1.8 and theres something about the sharpness that has a lot of people talking about it BUT go with the 35 1.4 // you can forsure get it all with it

    • @OmarEltakrori
      @OmarEltakrori  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      my advice is to always use what you got. yo forsure can take great pics at 55 f/4 but that may affect your iso. if its a paid job and you can make it happen, check offer up and craigslist for a prime and offset the cost.

    I hope this doesn't come off wrong, but do clients ever question you "being a professional" when you shoot with a small mirror less and small lens? Obviously the results speak for themselves, but if I was a paying client and didn't know any better I'd expect a professional photographer to have a giant DSLR with flash and lights, reflectors, ect. Just curious. Great videos, keep it up!

    • @OmarEltakrori
      @OmarEltakrori  6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      solid question, not gonna lie, I was worried about that when I jumped into sony from canon and being almost 2 years in with sony I have never gotten questioned that by a client. I would say because I get hired for a reason and is always relationship. I would hesitate working with people who are that shallow in their lack of understanding with photography. Also what makes a professional nowadays - everything we do is accessible and im learning every day.

    Follow up from my comment on the first video... if I shot this at 2.0 I'm pretty sure the majority of them would be out of focus. Is there something else I'm missing? Are you further away from the couple and then cropping in? And if not, are you focusing and recomposing? I'm finding that with the smaller aperture, recomposing often equates to the original focus point being out of focus.

    • @OmarEltakrori
      @OmarEltakrori  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      sooooooo - sonys AF technology is came changer - usually use face and eye auto focus during contiuous - when i start getting artsy fartsy then i lock in focus with a custom button and recompose
