Having just ordered a Sony 135mm F1.8 lens in Black Friday sale, this video gives me inspiration to take out wildlife shooting
-
Stunning shots once again! You never fail to impress, Jeremy. It is a great skill to shoot wildlife at these shorter focal lengths as it means you have to be very good at composition, since you'll get a lot of background in frame and usually not have ultra shallow DOF to hide it, although your sigma 135mm made it a bit easier as it gets very close to the DOF as your other zoom lens. Additionaly, you also need to get close to very shy birds, which is extremely difficult. Truly commendable work.
-
I love the look of the images from the 135mm. I really like seeing more of the environment that the birds are found in. Great job getting so close.
-
I do not know the Sigma 135mm 1.8 Lens, but I do have the excellent Sony 135mm 1.8 GM, which if you need to can crop a lot from a 61 megapixels sensor, I have sometimes cropped to an image that is 300+mm equivalent and it still look very good. I like bird and wildlife images where you can see the surroundings where the bird/animal are.
-
I recently went a large bird aviary, it made me realise how easy I could get close up shots of native species with still some greenery around, it really showed the importance of shooting wider to capture the bird in context.
-
sometimes environmental photos are better than portrait photos, I have been using my 24-105 more and recently had a reflection photo of a deer taking a sip of water in a scene of the creek running through the bottom 3rd of the photo and woods covering the top 3rds.
-
I think this is a great exercise to do, to give yourself a challenge in order to see things differently. Mallards are common here, but I never get tired of shooting them. I’ve only got 1 lens RF 100-500. But I may try this for a fresh perspective.
-
Actually the sigma 135 tested better than the Nikon Plena 135. Which proves how far advance sigma was even 7 years ago.
-
I switch lenses all the time. On an APS C sensor I use a 100-500mm, 70-200, and a 600 prime. I find it keeps things fresh. I also use the same lenses occasionally on a full frame body for a different perspective.
-
U need 840 and luck for ducks here, and 1200 and camping in a camo tent for 3 days for a goose.
-
Great framing 2:16 - looks really fun to take some pictures with that focal length ;)
-
Great video Jeremy, really interesting. I liked how you used a focal lenght like that, not easy at all, so well done!!
-
Amazing shots, who knew wildlife photos could look so artistic 🔥
-
That was cool. The environmental context makes a really pleasing alternative to the interminable whatever of high-res close-ups. I don't typically shoot wildlife as a subject - i have landscape-oriented gear - but you've inspired me to break out the 1972 SMC-Takumar 135 f/2.5, assuming it's not rusted onto the mount of the Spotmatic, of course. All the best... look forward to your next adventure! Cheers from New Zealand.
-
Great video Jeremy. Inspiring how you keep challenging yourself!
-
I have the same Sigma 135 for portrait work and have never considered using it for wildlife. Very nice work. though I'm amazed you didn't get frustrated by how slow it focuses. Thats what would keep me from taking it out for wildlife. Insanely sharp lens though.
-
Brutal. I use 210mm on an APS-C and really can't wait to get a 400mm lens. 135mm on full frame would drive me up the wall.
-
Great stuff! I am so glad I recently bought this lens. Can't wait to lay my hands on it!
-
Portrait photographers already know about the 135s. I'm inspired to use mine like this!
-
cropping in makes it not 135, but those are amazing photos, good job
