@@CurtisPadleyI’d like your advice, I currently use a Nikon d800 but I’m looking at making a switch to a A6000 or A6300 as it’s what I can afford if I sell my Nikon. I shoot a little of everything! Would you recommend the change or am I crazy !? Cheers
I am in London first time with this exact setup right now and also discovered long expisure photographs on people at bars or leaning at walls are so underrated. When were You there I believe I even photographed the same guy.
This is a nasty setup, ultra lightweight compact powerful. I have the 35-150 Tamron bit much and heavy, but since the last time I commented I major upgraded to A7CR FF for the extra MP for cropping harder
This is the greatest lens I’ve ever had, paired with my A6400. Thanks for your video, and now I miss it again because I’ve upgraded my camera to the A7C II, paired with the Sigma 28-70mm f/2.8.😅
What a great POV I've been looking forwards to this. I have the 17-70 paired with my A6600. The POV content is superb. I am only a novice & still learning best camera settings for Street photography, Wither to stick to Shutter priority, Auto ISO for all moving images then switch to aperture priority for static. You make it look so easy & take pics very quickly. Im really looking forwards to getting better with my pairing. Eventually i will try full manual but will probably miss more pics due to set up time I will be watching your video Pros change this
That extra zoom power makes this lens so much more appealing as opposed tothe Sigma 18-50mm. Ugh I was set on buying the sigma seeing this, has me 2nd guessing 😢
Great setup i have this lens paired with my a6700 and i get such great comps i love it thank you for showcasing this lens and this beautiful camera set up
9:00 what you commented about this photo remembered me the first man ever being photographed, in that case an individual was on the final shot because he was the only non moving subject, the rest of the street looks empty. I refer to the "Boulevard du Temple" photograph, in Paris, 1838. maybe this is a concept we should experiment in street photography more, focusing on interesting subjects using long exposures and let other things move leaving trails on the frame. great job.
I've had both and can't fault either. Now have the Sony 16-55, just because I got it for a very good price and am very happy with it, but any of the three will do you well.
Would you recommend as a good versatile lens I mainly shoot cars but every now and then I do proposals or just portraits. You also inspired me to do street photography
I'm starting to upload street photography videos. I'm from Colombia and I hope to grow and continue learning. You did a good job, I congratulate you bro. I hope to have the support of a community like yours. Everyone is very respectful and kind.
I've done a few concerts/club/party photoshoots with this and the focal range is really good for these. It could be a bit wider in some situations but you can get by and the longer range comes really handy in many cases. On my a6400 in not so well lit situations at f2.8 I'm hitting 12800 ISO and 1/100th shutterspeed, but in many cases I have to lower the shutter speed to get a brigther image cause it's missing a 1-3 stops on average. A 1.4 prime would be the ideal in this situation, but you loose the zoom function. If you like doing low shutterspeed shots then low light is not a problem. On a really well it concert you can stay around 1600-3200 ISO which is still really good for a concert. I'm also using the Denoise in Lightroom and it removes the noise quite well. Some shots are still noisy but if you dont raise the shadows too much its not so noticable and it can fit the aesthetic. If you are on a thigth budget then this combo is really good bang for the buck. You can achieve really good result with this on concerts and can get paid for doing it, but if you need really clean low light images, then a Full frame is a much better option, but also much more expensive.
@@RRonventures You're welcome. I'm also thinking about getting a full frame for this reason cause at those lower shutters speeds I make a lot of unsuable blurred images. Also a big problem for me is that my Tamron 17-70mm F2.8 is getting a ton of dust inside after just half a year and it is noticable on the photos. I cant really recommend that lens because of this issue :/
Love all the pictures you took and it's good to also hear what you think when taking the pictures, I can learn a lot! Btw, I noticed you use DJI action 4 for your POV camera. Do you use external mic or in camera mic?
Cracking video Curtis, I think I’m definitely due another visit to the Big Smoke soon. I have that lens, it’s only been off my camera once since I got it but I’m using it with my A7iii, I do want a couple more lenses but not sure which to choose, I could really do with a long lens but something more budget friendly and that seems to be where I’m struggling.
Bonjour l'ami ! Ayant acheté un Sony A6400 il y a peu de temps et cherchant quel objectif acheter pour être polyvalent, j'attendais avec impatience ta vidéo ! Même si je ne l'ai pas attendue pour me procurer le Tamron 17-70 avant 😅. Une vidéo et des photos au top comme toujours ! 👏 J'ai une petite question, j'aimerais savoir s'il est utile d'acheter un Sigma 30 mm f/1.4 à côté ? J'aimerais faire du portrait avec un effet bokeh plus présent. Merci de ta réponse ! 😊
I’m getting a 6400 Sony, are you editing the pictures if so what app or what website do you use for editing? I’m new to photography so I want to learn the basics
I am looking at upgrading my Sony 16-50mm kit lens and I am trying to decide between the Tamron 17-70 and the sony 18-135mm. I'm looking for something that's more versatile for everyday photography than the current kit lens. I also have a 35mm 1.4f 7 artisans manual lens and the 70-350 sony. Which would you recommend to compliment my other lenses? I shoot on an a6700.
I so wanted this lens but had to settle for 18-50 but when I went hiking in mountains with 18-50 and viltrox 75, I realized the worth of low weight and compactness of 18-50 xD
@@CurtisPadley awesome to hear, I was torn between the hero 12 and action 4 and finally made the jump this weekend. I went with the action 4 and like you said, very happy with the purchase! Thanks for the response and can’t wait to see the next video, cheers mate
9:55 I think you need some new jeans Curtis haha... great vid , love the images you got so very creative , for me the sigma 18-50 wins only on its size though
I'm returning my Sigma 18-50 for this lens. I prefer the more versatile focal range and the larger size. The Sigma is too small; it's kind of awkward to use.
Amazing. Question for you, Would you recommend this camera to a stills only shooter? I do full time headshots and portraits and I want something light and fast, currently shooting FUJI XT5 but thinking of jumping. What lenses would you recommend to rival a 50mm and 85mm equivalent? And a 35? I’m seriously thinking of switching from Fuji to Sony (XT5 to A6700). I use the Fuji 56, 33 and 23 (85, 50 and 35 equivalents). What 3 Sony lenses would give me those focal lengths? Am I crazy to think the Sony A6700 could rival the XT5 or would you say it might? Also I’m 53 and my back and eyes aren’t great, is the EVF usable?
Thanks again for this video. I have the same "combo". I have a question about the shutterspeed, (maybe you say something about this in your video, but my englisch is not so good) do you use auto shutterspeed or manuel?
Aye, drop that comparison soon 🙏 I have the sigma 18-50 on my sony a6400, but I want to return it (as it still possible😁) because I have a feeling that MAYBE I should have gone with the Tamron 😢 as always cracking vid Curt 🔥
Not a sony shooter, but have an older tamron 17-50 and i love it. Also how do you know it wasn't agent 47 in disguise? Don't have the game anymore but might go rewatch the movie 😂
I m waiting for your comparison video 7:52 between this and sigma 18-50 F2.8 and then i ll go straight to the shop Soo be fast plss 😂 i wanna buy my next lense asap
Great footage! I am deciding between buying an a6100 with 3000 shots for $630 euros with the kit lens and a sony 50mm f1.8 or the a6400 for $650 almost new with just the kit lens. What would you recommend?
@@MatiasPedemonte-h3d oh God I actually read that the other option was the a6300 🤦🏻🤦🏻 my bad. No, I don't think there's any other major difference between these two then! Weather sealing is important for me but you know better your shooting needs. Sorry for the mistake
3:01 gwnj8ne question do you not ask them before you take the photo does anyone ever say anything? I’m scared of someone taking it the wrong way and a possible harmful situation sorry and ur work is awsome
