Sony bokeh lens4/29/2023 ![]() It’s a a really good value portrait lens for your A6000 series camera. Price is relatively high for a lens of this focal length and aperture, but not so high as to make this a specialty lens. So not only will it react very quickly within a portrait session, it is also a very good choice for recording video. The OSS focus motor operates virtually silently and very quickly. It’s a heavier duty lens, built for more rugged use. Size and weight of this lens is more than the other Sony 50mm f/1.8 lens. ![]() On the Sony A6300, A6400, or A6500, this shows me a short telephoto lens view. I usually try to not think about crop factors and just accept what the lens shows me. There are a lot of articles about this if it still seems confusing. For some of us it takes a little bit to get used to this number shift. So, if you are used to the numbers involved in 35mm film photography, that means this lens will act on the smaller APS-C format the same way a 75mm lens would behave on the full frame format. In addition, the wonderfully soft bokeh opens up completely new dimensions in isolating persons from the background.The crop factor from Full Frame to APS-C is 1.5X. Your results will be much more satisfying and your scrap will be reduced to a minimum. The picture happens, you focus, and the lens focuses where it should focus. In combination with the lens, the strength of the focus system clearly comes into effect here because together, they manage to capture this very fraction of a second. That’s why I chose the combination of Sony a7 III and SIGMA 85mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art. Emotions are spontaneous and within fractions of a second, the moment, this one moment that, when looking at the picture, makes tears spring to your eyes … this moment is gone if your equipment isn’t working perfectly and isn’t very well tuned. A gust of wind then made sure that the hair in Sophie’s face blew and I shot the photo…īeing a passionate portrait photographer, I want to capture emotions. The weather was excellent (low sun) and I asked Sophie to “integrate” into the hedge in order to amplify the effect and make it more harmonious. The idea was to take a few pictures with the hedge to get some depth into the picture. This is Sophie at the end of our shooting day. This allowed me to reliably use this lens for vlogging, even in the low evening light. The autofocus of this lens was fast and accurate, in both photo and video modes shooting on the Sony a7 III. And since it’s an Art lens, as with all the other Art lenses I’ve tried and owned, it’s incredibly sharp even wide open at f1.4, so while the foreground and background lost focus, my subject never did. With the SIGMA 24mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art, I was able to get that wide angle of view that really shows off the subject’s surroundings, while shortening that depth of field enough to render the background and foreground out of focus, like I wanted. To start with, I don’t want everything to be sharp and that’s often the biggest hurdle with wide angle lenses, since the depth of field gets very deep very quickly, leaving very little bokeh to separate subject from foreground and background. When it comes to urban photography and shooting portraits in the streets, I like to show as much of the surrounding architecture and movement as possible.
