Im an ameture photographer, i see a lot of car photography on youtube but no motorcycle photography from a professional like you right now. Thanks for making the video, it helps me a lot to improve
Awesome! So glad you found my work. Glad you found it helpful also. Cheers!! 👊🏼👊🏼
To be honest the lens I love the most is a used cheap 50mm F1.8 on a 5D MK2 that I also bought used.
Sometimes used lenses or camera gear is the way to go and not ruin yourself.
That's actually a seriously good camera combo! Great stuff!
Aww man, you make me wanna switch to Sony. Might grab the a7s3 to take pics of my 350z
Love the vid 👌🏽
Sony is amazing! Makes such a sharp image! If you're looking to do Photography Mainly though I'd suggest the A7iii or A7R cameras as the a7S series are pushed more towards VIDEO shooters and the MP count for photos is a lot less. Cheers!
I wouldn't advise going with the a7siii if you are taking photos. you're better off going with the a7riv instead.
If you're gonna be uploading content anywhere online, the SIII is fine, 12mp is totally fine for Instagram. But, no need to spend $3500 when you can spend $1700 on the A7III and use the left over money for some nice glass.
I need that 18-35. My nifty fifty is great, but not on my cropped SL3. I'm taking photos from like 50 feet away lol.
Ya man! That 18-35 is a game changer!!
I switched from Canon DSLR's to a single APS-C camera the Sony A6600, and I love it with its IBIS, 4K, Big Battery, its almost perfect its tops out at 1/4000 sec but I can live with that.
Before the C19 came along I was doing lots of car and motorcycle events, travel photography and using two cameras now I'm writing more and not as much photography the a6600 fits my needs perfectly and dropping close to 12 lbs of weight (2 bodies, lenses and flash) is a big plus as well
I also use a Lum cube for my lighting needs all this new tech is fun.
Those Yamaha MT09 is an awesome motorcycle that triple puts out some nice torque.
MT stands for Masters of Torque. If you like Anime Yamaha put out some videos a few years ago called the Masters of Torque.
Bro, this is seriously unreal!! 🔥🔥🔥 It was fun shooting that day! I’d say my go-to lens for me would be the Sony 16-35 f4 mainly because I use the wide the most when filming How-to’s etc! But I need to get more with a prime and add some different footages now!!! Epic bro! 🤟🏻
Was definitely fun shooting bro!! Thanks for the fun day out. Too bad I didn’t get to try out that 85mm you got!
damn i love watching you grow content-quality wise and finally seeing some growth in reach😏 the cinematics are on point as always🔥✌🏼
Thanks so much man! It’s been fun! Excited to see where the journey takes us all!
The intro was absolutely amazing! keep up the great work🔥🔥
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed it! 😃
Great video ive been using the 24-70 and the 85mm
Love the 85mm
I use the Sigma 30mm 1.4 on my Sony A6000 and it is just amazing :) Nice video!
Probably the best lens you could get for the Sony crop sensors. It’s a beast in a small package!
Awesome video Alex! I also love the sigma 35mm!
It’s the best lens I’ve used! Love it!
another video on my like list :-) hope i dont forget to send in some raw for round 3 of your editing vid :-) actually takin pictures with my a6300 and sigma 16/30/56 1.4 - they are so recommandable for sony apsc's!! if i had to choose one - it would be the 30mm 1.4 (apsc) because it gets the job done and its most versatile. stay well buddy
56?
Jeep Joseph what do u want to know? Sigma‘s got 16 / 30 & 56mm 1.4 glasses to offer, every single one of them is worth them bucks
@@EastPh1lly you mean 58mm?
Jeep Joseph i mean what I say, simply google it 👍🏼
@@EastPh1lly they are pretty cheap. Compare a similar fx nikkor 1.4 ed lens to that
I see a future 1 million sub creater
Eh! Wouldn’t that be something! Remind me that you called it when we get there ;) Look forward to the journey.
Great video my friend. Im thinking to buy the a7 iii for car photography. Besides the 35mm wich zoom lenses you recommend for all around besides car photography? Sigma 24-70mm 2.8 is worth it or there is a better option for the money/quality? Keep the work! Big hug from Portugal
Thanks man! Yes I would look into a 24-70 type lens. Just do your research for what’s right for your budget. I think most of the quality will be negligible? But I don’t know.
@@TheCarCreative thanks!
Also look at carl zeiss (though it's very expensive). I would get a 14-24 2.8, 24-70 2.8 and a 70-200 2.8
Greetings from Germany!
Currently I am shooting on my Sony A 7 r II and I have a sony 85mm f1.8 and a sony 50mm f1.8 . Right now I want to buy a lense around 30mm. I can't decide between the sigma 30mm f 1.4 and the sigma 35mm. The price differents is 300€ and I wanted to ask you if you think that the difference is worth it or not. Thanks in advance.
(I want to use the lense for rolling shots and interior shots)
Hey do I need to use an adaptor to use SIGMA glass on my Sony A7III? After watching your video was planning on getting the SIGMA 30mm F1.4 or the SIGMA 18-35mm F1.8, which do you recommend for car videography/photography 📸🔥
If you’re only going to buy 1, get the 18-35 because its way more versatile. Depends on the camera body you have if you need an adapter. Just check in on your mount and what the lens mount you’re buying is and make sure they line up. Thanks for watching!
Those being APS-C lenses, I wouldnt get those at all for A7 III, get full frame lenses to actually take benefit from your A7 III. Good glass is far more important than the body.
You want the Sony 16-35 FE lens. Or adapted get a Canon EF 17-40 F4, 16-35 F4 or F2.8 with the Sigma MC-11 adapter.
18-35 is dc so dont put it on a full frame camera. Buy the 24-35 dg
And depends on the lens. You can buy sony e mount sigma glass without an adapter
I have a nikon d5600 crop sensor and do some car and city photografy..and was thinking of a 35mm equivalent .
Sincer your favourite is the 35mm sigma art 1.4.
Would you say is it worth buiyng a 24mm sigma art 1.4?
Would it be too much money..or should i sell my d5600 +18-55+50mm..and get a sony a7III
I love me some Yamahas! I picked up the 30mm 1.4 Sigma for my a6000 and it was a world of difference over the kit 16-55. Especially the 1.4. So you seem to be a bit in the sony world. You pre-ordering the a7siii?
The sigma 30mm f1.4 is my current daily lens on my a6000
Perfect daily combo!
I just ordered my A6000, do you have any recommendations for lenses under $100?
Mohammed Alnaseri eeek hard to say for that budget, just keep shooting with the kit lense and save for the sigma 30mm
AyoThatzDBo Thanks, I appreciate it!
Haha no way! I recently took some shots for Gyeon :D
Nice!! Would love to see them!
Thanks for the advice just swapped my 70-200mm F4L for a 18-35mm 1.8 cause of this keep up the sick videos 💪
Whoa! Boom man! Hopefully you really enjoy it!
same music i did on my video teaser more than a year ago
Do you recommend the Canon 17-55 2.8? I've been using it lately with my Canon M50 and canon ef/efs to m adapter. I keep using my 15-45mm kit lense when I'm going out with friends and I wanna travel light since it makes the camera so small
To be honest I’ve actually never used it. But with an aperture of 2.8 those focal lengths should cover almost all the bases for ya!!
What lens do you recommend for a canon 70D? I mostly shoot outdoor pictures of my Tacoma?
What lens do you have?
What do you need to start out doing this? I'm hopefully buying a d500 with the 16-80 kit lens once the pandemic is over. I already have a d3500 (around 105k actuations) a 50mm 1.8d, an 18-55 kit lens and a sigma 70-300 dg macro. The only thing is the lens has to be fx (excluding 16-80)
Seems like you’ve got everything you need man! Just need to start doing it and learn along the way what you need. =)
@@TheCarCreative thanks
I am wondering why no 24 - 70 on 2.8 from Sigma? The lens is actually totally known for covering many areas of photography. Or is it not really suitable for car photography?
Oh it is absolutely! I think that I would love to get that lens as soon as finds allow! It would be awesome!
I’ve had the a7iii for about a year now and finally ordered the sigma 35 1.4 yesterday, it’s coming in tomorrow!
🙌🏼 your gonna love it!!
Ohhhh amazing👌👌👌👌, I think you gone get a job with Yamaha also😎😎😎
Thanks man! The trick is to find a way to get them to see it! Haha. Maybe some day. Cheers man!
What a video. The best content in the game.
Thanks man!! So kind! Gotta keep it going!
Looks like Josh
Nice to see a bike! Needs more wheelies though 😂
Sir you should have to make a video on how to get car photography clients.
Sounds nice , but this also depends on your location , market and skills , will be more like tips on how to ...
My daily is the Panasonic G-Vario 12-60mm f3.5, it is so good because i can always use it, literally for everything. My next lens will be a prime lens :)
Love it! That’s essentially the 24-105 equivalent I guess?
@@TheCarCreative yeah
How do you feel about the Zeiss 35mm f1.4?
I feel good about it. I don't know much about it, but I know they make epic lenses. The 55 is a beast that's for sure!
Thank you Alex. I’ve learned so much from every video you’ve posted. Good stuff.
My pleasure!! Glad you’re enjoying the content 👊🏼
I am using 18-140 and 50mm 1.8 for my crop sensor D7500. I would like to go for a 35mm 1.8 so that it would give me an effective focal length of 50mm
Should be pretty close to a 50 ya! I’m not sure what the crop factor is on that camera but a slightly wider 1.8 would be awesome!
@@TheCarCreative then there is 24mm but that gives effective focal length of 36 mm. But won't it cause distortion or vignette? 😬
@@flyer7840 24mm isn't that wide. If your worried about that stay away from the sigma 4.5mm
@@jeepjoseph9036 I was asking a doubt and actually I know that there are many lenses that are wider. But as I am new at this field I was asking whether the 18 mm is ok!!!!.
@@flyer7840 Why would it not be? And besides do you not use any adobe software? Just do a lens profile correction. But I wouldn't ever touch a megazoom such as the 18-140 with a 10 foot pole.
Tacoma mentioned in every video I've watched from you so far....hmmmm. Something tells me you like Tacomas. Anyway, love the vibe of your videos man. Inspiring me to change things up with how I produce my content.
Haha! Well in an ideal world I’d be shooting a bit more than Tacoma’s but they are cool little trucks and I was fortunate to own one for a minute. I think I need an Audi R8 or something though haha!
Thanks so much for watching man! I really appreciate it!
@@TheCarCreative no problem, good content for sure.
I can’t afford any lenses except my 50mm for my canon 5D MKii 😭😂
The fifty fifty 1.8 is the perfect starting point!
hey! awesome video man inspired me alot! thxs! is the photos shoot with 24-105 shot with the a6500 ? love bookeh!and is everything filmed with that lens? have a great day!
ps you just got your self a new subscriber!
i wanna buy a full frame sony camera, which one would you recommend me, a sony a7iii?
Yes. I have never used a Sony I like more than the A7iii! Best compromise for high quality photo and video. 👌🏼
You only need a 24-70 & 70-200 native, if you can afford it, you should be doing Pro work period. quick lying lol hahahah
Those are a great couple of lenses! True! Have you ever used prime lenses before?
@@TheCarCreative yes 85mm créame machine and 50mm (only native lenses)
Can You show us post production? How do you get this high dynamic range and colour? On photographs grass seems to be yellow, but video shows that is green.
Intro edit was REALLY nice! Great advice on the lenses as well!
Thanks man! It was super fun to make!
I’m not sure why but your 1080 footage seems a lot more blurry than other channels it’s weird
Well shoot. That sucks! I uploaded in 4k... maybe it’s the internet???
@@TheCarCreative Yeah, must be TH-cam's bad compression.
Interesting! You don’t have prime 85 or 105mm?
Not yet no. But would love to add them to the arsenal! That’s for sure!
The Car Creative yes, same here 😃
Great video! I love shooting around the 100mm lens for photos
Nice! That’s a serious focal length for some good compression!
The Car Creative I use it all for the compression. It’s actually the Lumix 12-60 kit lens but with the crop factor you get a lot more range. Only issue is it’s a f5.6
That moment when you have a canon sx60hs, which is a powershot, you can't even swap lenses :(
Time to practice the editing man! You can still do so much with that camera! 🙌🏼
@@TheCarCreative yes but I want to have a blurry background! Which is impossible as the lowest f stop is 4
@@nicolasjournel7968 Don't limit yourself to pictures where bokeh makes or breaks it, branch out, experiment.
@@ach6791 well yeah I have an Instagram @keyshaphotography and I'm kinda happy with the results I have, however I'm gonna buy a new camera soon 👀
@@nicolasjournel7968 I'll hit you up with a follow, keep on practicing homie
So you cant use a sigma lens on a sony without using the adapter? Im looking tu buy the sigma 35 or sony 85,sony 35. Idk what the best choice would be.
Sigma also makes native Sony e mount glass! I just use the adapter because I also shoot on canon cinema cameras. But you can definitely get native glass! Check into it! 35mm lens is hands down the best lens I’ve ever used.
The Car Creative wow that was a fast reply! Ty! I definitely will try it! But you think it would be a good upgrade? Ive been using the 28mm and so far it has given me crazy good results so upgrading to a 35mm +7mm difference is worth the buy?
jangelgzn oh... hmmm I mean, ya I dunno if 7mm is worth it 🤷🏻♂️ if it were me I probably wouldn’t unless I had all the money haha. You could rent one? Try it out and see if you like the results?
I'm so glad that you mentioned the 24-105. That's also my daily lens (atm the only one i got xD) and i think for a zoom lens it is very versatile to use, even if it has only F4, it still gives you a very nice bokeh. Also good if your shooting has to be very fast and you don't have the time to switch lenses, but want to use different focal lenghts.
Hey! Great content as always... What settings did you use for the moving bike footage? I do motocross photography and recently started practicing video but I'm not overly happy with the focus (sharpness) whether it's AF/MF, Wide/Zone etc.
What camera
I used to shoot almost everything with my Sigma 18-35 and 50-100. I loved those lenses, those two were my tag team duo, and I felt like between the two of them I could do almost anything.... However I recently upgraded to a Full frame mirrorless camera and now I feel lost on what glass to upgrade to next. I would love to get some native lenses, but they are crazy money. I feel like I'll probably keep my 18-35 because even though it is ridiculously vignetted for photos, when shooting video it crops the sensor and it's still makes for a great lens to have. The 50-100 on the other hand, while I absolutely loved it too, is just too long of a focal length for most video work, and is so massive and heavy that I really don't have the same reservations about letting it go. Unfortunately there's noting out there as versatile and fast for a full frame camera right now to replace it. So now I am looking at primes, and I am running into the money issue again. To replace that 50-100 on a FF camera I would basically need at least 3 $1000+ prime lenses... I think I might just need a cheaper hobby.
Because of the crop factor the 18-35 and the 50-100 were both 2.7 equivalents. Get a 24-70 2.8 and a 70-200 2.8
That is my setup right there just starting my car photography phase now so will be watching more of your videos
Great stuff man! Thanks so much for watching!
What do you find is always your "Go-To" lens. If you could only pick one lens, what would it be?
Probably An 85 mm and a 105 mm i have a vintage 85 with af cuz cropcensor i have 127.5 mm wow i love IT
Even if i just love the 85mm i would probably go with a permanent glue on the body with the 70-200mm :)
That sounds like a sick lens! Would love to see how the Vintage lens looks!
Nice! Good call! So versatile. I personally love shooting a bit wider - obviously haha. But that's a great choice!
Sigma Art 50mm f1.4 is my "Go-To" lens on Sony A7iii. I love this combo 👊🏼
Thanks for all your tips, I am returning to car photography after a 15 year break.
Amazing! Get at it, it’s the funnest!
thats literately my favourite bike, i just found the channel. your who i want to be when im older
Awesome man! So glad you found the channel! Who knows maybe you could be an even better version some day =D Keep at it bro!
55 1.8 ZEISS YO
Great lens!
@@TheCarCreative local photog haha need help?! :D
Love the video! I’ve been using a Sony a6500 with Sony Zeiss 16-70mm f4 lens and I love it! Definitely looking to move to full frame in the future but for the cost I think it’s a good setup (would still love a lower aperture lens)
That’s a killer setup you got man! Good for everything! But yes, a lower aperture lens will give you some really cool results!
The Car Creative thank you! Just trying to really learn and improve my craft and editing ability before I upgrade (: appreciate your videos (:
Hello, I use the Sony A7ii with the Sigma Art 35mm f1.4. Also I just bought the Sony FE 50mm f1.8 (because it is cheap) what I can say is, the Sigma es sharper, gives you the special mood and it so much more fun and comfortable to edit aswell. But at the end, the Sony 50mm gives you much more real look of the car. My M3 looks wider and more real with the Sony. You definetly can guess the difference from the fat arches of the M3. With the Sigma it looks thinner and smaller... if you want, you can check my photo's on my IG accoun @frozensilverm3
PS, like your Videos
Hey man! Thanks for watching! Great to hear how others are using their lenses! Also good advice cuz I’ve got a shoot this weekend that I want to make the car look mean! So this is good timing for me too bro 🤙🏼
Currently using canon 18 to 135 IS USM 3.6-5.6 which I got with my canon eos90d. Currently not planning to buy a new lens but what would be a nice upgrade? I was thinking about the 50mm 1.8 but not sure
That nifty 50 is a great place to start! If you're on a crop sensor camera it will be more like an 80mm which is also nice! You can check out my review on the 50mm 1.8 also!
Great video! I can't see the light for lightpainting listed in your description. Where can I get it?
Hey man! It’s called and Ice Light 2 by Westcott. Awesome light but there’s a bunch of cheaper “light sticks” on the market. 👊🏼 if you want I can send you an affiliate link. Otherwise happy hunting!
@@TheCarCreative Thanks so much! Please do!
Great lens choices.
I am in love with the 85mm look on a Full Frame.
Also as a more versatile lense i have the 70-200mm witch is also amazing.
Most of my instagram photos are on 85mm.
Great video and value.
Thanks for sharing with the community
Greets from Germany
Sounds like you're pretty setup! I'd love to have a 70-200 full frame at 2.8 - that would be such an epic lens! Thanks for watching! Means a lot!
@@TheCarCreative Thank you for sharing your experience with us and always giving helpful advice for this community. My 70-200mm is the F4 and i've tested the F2.8 before buying it and i really didn't saw the price difference justified...
Your intros are so fire man!!!
Shooting Dave eh!!! Thanks so much man! It’s a ton of fun to make them for sure! 😃
You need WAY MORE subscribers dude!!!
Some day!! Hit 10k today so I’m pretty jazzed on that!
