Best lens for portability (28-60mm 4/5.6, 50mm 2.5 G, samyang 35mm 1,8) So I have a Sony A7III with a 28-75mm 2.8 Tamron, and sometimes i dont take my camera because i think its a bit heavy setup for casual photography (travel, family), I was thinking about getting a compact camera for the portability, the zv-1 but after posting here about it people made me re-think about aquiring it, and im persuaded to get a lens …

50mm f/1.8 vs 50mm f/4 (image quality)

( www.reddit.com )

50mm f/1.8 vs 50mm f/4 (image quality) How noticeable is the quality and sharpness difference from each of these photos. The first link is the RF 50mm f/1.8 and the second photo is the 24-105mm f/4 set to 50mm. Both lens are taken in Av mode. Other than the obvious bokeh difference I honestly can’t tell the difference myself. 50mm f/1.8 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zF_Kk4PNpOcVUQ…

Canon 50mm 1.8 STM users

Canon 50mm 1.8 STM users A few questions, this is pretty much the only lens I use and have been using this for portraits for nearly a year. I think it could be time to explore other lenses, do you have any recommendations following this? Also, what aperture do you use for the most sharpest photos? I tend to only use f/1.8 though like the sharpness when using f/4.0 and w…

Sony GM 50mm Prime vs GM 24-70 Zoom Hi, For context, I’m a hobbyist primarily interested in being able to take good family pictures of my five kids as they grow up.

For the last year, I’ve been shooting on a Sony a7iv primarily with a Tamron 28-200mm zoom lens (F2.8-F5.6…

AF 50mm f/1.8D Nikkon lens not autofocusing?

( www.reddit.com )

AF 50mm f/1.8D Nikkon lens not autofocusing? Hi everybody, I recently bought a second hand 50mm lens that I’m using with my Nikon D750. The issue is that for some reason the focus ring just wiggles back and forth a tiny bit when I try and use the autofocus, this only happens with the 50mm so it’s definitely a lens issue. Here are the things I’ve checked/tried: – used a different lens – che…

Do I just love 50mm or 1.8? Hey all, hopefully you can help me here. I’m fairly new as a hobbyist and I have a question I have a nifty 50 and the “kit” 24-70 variable aperture Between the two I always end up going back to the 50 and I can’t decide if it’s the angle of the lens or the aperture range that I really prefer. FYI, I don’t just park it at wide open aperture. I’…

Should I work on mastering a 50mm f/1.4 or learning a variety of lenses?

Should I work on mastering a 50mm f/1.4 or learning a variety of lenses? I’m new to photography (I only had one class in high school almost 15 years ago). I recently bought a used Cannon 5D Mark III and an EF 50MM f/1.4 USM that I’m really enjoying learning how to shoot manual with. A decent quality zoom lens is out of my budget at the moment, and my understanding is that cheap zoom lenses can be a waste of money. O…

Fungus on nikkor ai-s 50mm f1.4 (rear lense?): how bad is it? I recently bought this lense for a good price on ebay, listed as in perfect conditions, like new. It is indeed in very good conditions, the first thing that i did is to check if the lenses had any scratches, haze or fungus, it looked like it didn’t have any. I shoot some photos at home, it doesn’t seem like it has any visible problem (i have to …
