I have the 70-200 2.8 fl weighs a bit, 85mm 1.4 nice and light with very good bokeh and sharpness. I also got the z 85mm just to check it out its a pretty good lens but i prefer the f mount 85mm. Finally i got the new tamron 35mm 1.4 usd lens. I think im a horder. Overall i prefer 70-200 but draw back is it being heavy. Its a professional lens but not a social lens where you can take to your holidays. I like lightweight lens more now. I’m waiting for the z 70-200 to come out.

I like and use a 24-105 canon L series lens. I shoot at conventions on a APS-c camera. I have to back up 1.62 times as far from the subject than I would if I was using a full frame camera. Conventions are crowded and I don't get to choose the distance to subject. As they say the best lens is the one you got and use, and my subject don't complain, they like the photographs.

The background is more out of focus at the longer focal length but the depth of field centred at the subject will not change. I understood the statement as the depth of field would be shallower.

If I had to make the choice for someone who was looking into starting portrait photography, I would choose the 85mm f/1.4 (or variant such as the f/1.8) as a first lens. It's a good all round balance between cost, optical quality, weight and size. It's a great focal length to use both indoor and outdoors because you have a reasonable working distance to zoom with your feet and the larger aperture prime comes in handy to tame the ISO in low light situations.

85 is an excellent focal length but I think it became a “classic” for headshots (asMatt says) only since the advent of crop-sensor cameras. For full frame, 105 was always considered the true classic. Now of course, you can photograph anything with any lens or camera you wish, but getting tight on a person’s face (true head-neck-shoulders photo) with an 85 on a full frame camera is just not the best, IMO. Back off and do the portrait waist-up and then the 85 is going to be great. But for doing a tight headshot, 105 or longer is the way to go in order to keep the nose and chin most natural-looking.

@@jcphenix1 You've missed my points. The APSC crop factor has changed the perception of some focal lengths in people's minds because of the extended reach. For example, 50mm lenses on full-frame film cameras were never very useful by many photojournalists, studio photographers, etc. But now, there's this whole "nifty fifty" thing that has emerged in recent years because a 50 now has a little more perceived reach because of the crop factor (plus, they're cheap). Same with the 85, in terms of its role changing in the APSC era. The 85 was always well regarded in any era, but in full-frame film days (no different than full-frame digital days, in terms of perspective) it wasn't very commonly used for tight headshots as it is today, and that's because today it has extra reach due to APSC. And as for your last comment, there's no denying that a tight headshot with an 85 on full-frame will slightly exaggerate noses and chins compared to the same shot taken with longer focal lengths. And those exaggerated features are almost never considered flattering.

LIke to understand more about the science... some say that 105mm for portrait is exactly what the eye sees and apparently plastic surgeons use this for that reason. I’m guessing the exact distance and focal length is what matters - so for a head and shoulders framing will dictate the distance you are away. Also from an aesthetic standpoint, genetics and age will impact the result: For age, our nose and ears continue to grow so to look younger, a larger focal length (e.g. 200mm) will be more flattering; However, for a young Asian it can make the face look too distorted and make the face ‘fatter’ and the nose too small.

It took me a while to fully understand this because the DOF tables say if you maintain the same subject framing and aperture when you change focal length then the DOF will be the same. And it is. What makes the background more blown out is the larger size of the out of focus objects in the background. If you scale down a background object of the 135mm image and compare it with the 85mm images the object in the background will be the same.

I would really love if you could put those photos side by side, to have a better comparison. And since we are talking expensive lenses with superb low light capabilities, would probably be handy if we had bokeh comparison and which one achieves it best, since 1.4 on 105 is significantly wider than 2.8 on 70-200. To this day, I still don't know which one would give more separation.

@SarveshParakh5 жыл бұрын
brandishwar tamron lenses are unreliable at focus. I own a few. Totally useless. You have to calibrate them often. With that said, no saying when they will start missing focus again. Average lens life for me for a 2.8 should be around 5 years. Tamrons start showing their true colors in about 2-4months. Renting doesn’t expose you to this issue sadly. Save more, get a nikon version. Sigma also has same issues. But ofcourse, if you are on a mirrorless body, all the focus problems shouldnt exist in theory. But on a dslr, stay away from the scam that tamron or sigma is. You wont find much evidence to this on youtube cuz most popular youtubers only use lenses for reviews so they rent them, or if they own any, they keep changing lenses quite often, or even if someone had some issue, they wont come out publicly to criticise the brands because these brands are essentially keeping them cozy and warm (No hard feelings for them). Save and get Nikon.

Personally, I use the most recent AF-D 80-200 f/2.8 and I got that lens basically because it was really a great price and I'd dabbled a bit with the 85 f/1.8 but wasn't all that satisfied with it. When I'm travelling it's a great lens to use (misses focus more often than I'd like but AF-D lenses can be like that) and because of its versatility I've shot plenty of landscapes with it too. I'm still considering an 85 for street photography though, as it'd be much less intrusive. But since it's something I do so rarely, I'm not in a hurry.

T 80-200 is better then 70-200 At bokeh, the only problem is lack of stabilization. But if you put 80-200 on a body with IBIS(Z6/7), then it becomes better then the 70-200! Still needing sometimes a prime...f/1.4 makes an incredible look...so I would go for 85 1.4 and not 1.8(which is a less quality lens). On Z6, 85 mm 1.4 gets perfect focus each and every time and a splendid bokeh.
@brucesummers74482 жыл бұрын
The biggest differences are in relative view angle and camera to subject distances. Indoors the 200mm is only going to work for head shots. The 85mm provides a wider view angle but the 105mm works equally well indoors and provides a slightly greater working distance. Except for professional models, people are not comfortable with a camera that invades their personal space. The discomfort is visible in the pictures when this is done. Indoors the only choices are a 85mm, 105mm, or a 70-200mm zoom lens. Outdoors a 70-200mm is very effective within its full range and can be used with individuals and with couples.

My preference honestly is to have two bodies... in most cases one has either a 50 1.8 or a 24-70 on it, and the other has the 70-200. This provides the best flexibility, and when possible, I use the 50mm for the optics ( the 24-70 Z in this case, is a good lens, but the 50 1.8 is sharper and faster so better for low light). I also don't find the focal ranges below 50mm to be of much use for people photography unless I'm doing an environmental portrait... otherwise I'm at 50 or above if practical. In tight spaces, I'll probably use the 24-70 more but my preference leans more towards the 50 and the 70-200.

Answering this question, to me, is not about the lens or it's bokeh in the first place. It starts with features of the person you shoot. Based on the same framing, the longer lens gets you further away - which causes a different perspective. Straight head on shots do not illustrate this well (except the other way, going close and wide angle.) To learn to see this, start with focal lengths of at least a factor 2 or 0.5 difference.

Just FYI, the focal lengths of these lenses have no effect whatsoever on the perspective differences seen in the background. This is caused solely by the proximity of the photographer to the subject. Changing focal length cannot change perspective.
@shigityshigityshwa5 жыл бұрын
as with all things in life this is relative. in this case, it's relative to the focal length if you keep framing of the subject the same. thank you very much mr knowitall have a nice day

@@shigityshigityshwa Not exactly astonishing that you would conclude your mistake with a pointless insult but, nonetheless, telling. It is not relative. Focal length has no effect on perspective. Perspective is a 'proximity effect'.

I have a 85 f1.8 and a 70-200 f2.8. I see myself using the 70-200 much more in shoots but you can get 1 to 2 stops more light with the primes. So if I am trying to stop the action with no flash, like in a concert, or an indoor wedding, primes have there place for getting less noise.

For most people in most cases, 70-200 is the safest bet, and longest keep, probably best value for money as well. In particular use case, 105 and 85 outshine 70-200. Again those occasions are few and far between for most people.

Hello Matt again a nice comparison ! Thank you Tell me honestly, have you ever compared different camera brands in different colors? I mean skin colors ? One hears again and again the best skin color has canon or Fuji ? What do you say ? Can you make a comparison ? Nikon vs canon vs fuji vs Panasonic ? 😀 Greetings Mariooooooo

I have probably asked this before, I just don't remember if you responded. What about 135mm? Like, have you ever tried the Samyang 135mm f2? According to basically all the videos about it I've seen, it's even better than Canon's 135mm f2L, which would be pretty amazing considering the price of it. Now I do have the Samyang 135mm and it is just amazing. I actually also own the Samyang 85mm which I actually bought because of your old video on it, and love it! For 105 I have the legendary f2.5 Nikon version. For me I don't really have a favorite one, they are all amazing, though I will use the 85mm when in tight situations, since I may not always have room for using the other 2 :)

It's hard to compare these. It's like trying to compare a 2-door sports car with the family van. Both are in production and drivers are buying and using them, but for different purposes. Now, if we are talking about preferred look or aesthetics, I like the 135mm lenses most. Why? Just personal preference.
