[@otraguardia]

How is shooting portraits with a 24-70 mm a challenge? This is like the challenge to eat soup with a spoon.

[@RudeRichDallas]

Really appreciate the way you share your insights and style and the way you stay on point. Well done, thank you Pye! I look forward to your next post.

[@davidhell2164]

great!!! thx for that video !! the effect of framing rene between the buildings behind her is really good !

[@napavalleyimages]

Thanks for this one. The 24-70 is my favorite lens and you have given me several new ideas. Well done!

[@smooth111012]

Great shots, what focus mode did you use, was it wide or zoned?

[@hurleygreen927]

GREAT TUTORIAL! I LOVE the 24-70mm on my Nikon D50, and a nifty 50mm 1.8 lens for all around photography..keep up the great work!

[@nilutpaldas6198]

Awesome shots.. Awesome tutorial.. But I like the images which was straight out of camera.. After it was colour graded.. It looked a little blown out.. The luminance of the colour has increased a lot..

[@I_Am_Bone]

Excellent info as always. I recently purchased my first "Pro" lens, a 12-40 f2.8 mft and absolutely love it. Your teachings have always shown modesty, and always have something very meaningful, and valuable to learn. Thank You!

[@kennethgnielsen]

Excellent work! I appreciate the aggressive creativity, thinking it through and what a great way to show what a lens can do in the right hands. Thank You!

[@JamesBoyer-plus]

Wow, thank you, Pye! Your ability to visualize the shot potential in seemingly crappy locations is wonderful. And, demonstrating that worthwhile photographs can be made using work-a-day lenses (as opposed to hand-crafted, solid unobtainium gear of the Gods) is important. Your willingness to teach and share is greatly appreciated.

[@jpdj2715]

You're right and very polite, but for most viewers, US$4,398 for this camera and lens combination might already be in the unobtanium class.

[@rachdoesmagic]

I literally think the 24-70 for location portrait session is incredible. It give so much liberty, and variety... I love it for portraits :)

[@alainrobitaille6378]

I very like this shoot. Shooting in crapy location is not easy. This shoot give me new idea on how to do portraits outside and use the full potential of the surrounding. Thanks Pye. Always fun to see your work and how you do it. Alain form Montreal

[@Brian.Melnyk]

Is there any chance you can put the histogram on the right hand side of the screen when you show your settings? I'm trying to learn more about exposure and find the histogram helps a lot. Thanks Pye!

[@Alla_Kryvonos]

Вау. С удовольствием посмотрела ❤

[@bardoteachings]

Thanks for the inspiration!

[@CriticalThinkerUK]

2:58 I think you mean shallow depth. More depth means more of the photo is in focus...

[@williamborges3914]

Another great "out-in-a-parking-lot" photo session, Pye. This time it was extra fancy . . . there were puddles! Love it! Brilliant use of the leafy branch that complemented Renee's gorgeous skin tones. ('Good thing you checked for bugs.). 😀

[@hanscagayan7260]

Great video !!! Learned a lot about finding great shots where you don't ordinarily expect one.

[@krishnansv4321]

excellent use of the lens

[@ME2K23]

👍🏻☺👍🏻Thanks very much for yet another great, informative video with an equaly great model!

[@benngd2669]

Those vines are so cool

[@aportraitontech5218]

Great highlighting the 24-70! One of the lenses in my kit.

[@gvasquez330]

24-70 is my most underused lens. Could have used it last night. Thanks for your insights. Would like to see the 35mm in use.

[@djsugarbear6079]

Dope as always!

[@ahmada5749]

Excellent, thank you.

[@mohammadalanazi4977]

Amazin video! You’re so funny without trying to be funny. I like that.

[@rabe4633]

Minute 01:40.....What is the "white line" at the wall which comes out of the head of the model ? (Excuse my english)😔

[@makahaj341]

He talks about it in the video. It's bird poop. :)

[@Jambo1999]

Good show, 24-70 is not my 1st choice for modelling, but you show how. I was hoping to see how you use a reflector by yourself. BTW excellent sound, but i never saw a lav mic.

[@mediaflmcreation]

Lens is a lens. There's really not a "lens for portraits, for headshots, for modeling, for acting..." I use the 24-70 religiously for modeling and is excellent for catalog and close beauty frames. Even used it for detailing. Now that's just me of course... why don't you use it?

[@rjlangley1]

Great inspiration! I always learn something from your videos. Thank you!

[@leedollas]

Hey guys first time to your channel. I really enjoyed the video,very knowledgeable information. What photo shop you use to edit these photos

[@jeffnewman8261]

Great tips Pye! Very creative!

[@allanmarshall4582]

Some fantastic images there. Great model too.

[@Thatguy1306n]

What kind of lense hood is that?

[@opalyankaBG]

Nice. How about an APS-C challenge next time with a 35mm f/2 lens?

[@StevenSmith-nq5xe]

Fantastic, entertaining, informative video. Thank you!

[@edm8581]

Is thats the sony 24 -70 2.8?

[@fixitrod4969]

Great use of your environment. You obviously are one of the best! First image is great but that seam in the wall is very distracting and looks difficult to photoshop with those vines.

[@truckingpix]

excellent video super informative

[@mynameistrd6841]

bringing a lot of depth actually means bring a lot of details not less or getting blurred background, more depth of field mean you get more detail throughout the focal length, not the other way around. Getting bokeh equals shallow depth of field, not more of depth :) Misunderstanding with a lot of youtubers.

[@georgefrench1907]

Great tips.👍

[@inevitablecraftslab]

Well a one lens challenge with a zoom is not really a one lens challenge. Its a "every lens between 24 and 70mm focal length"-challenge

[@jpdj2715]

The shots are really nice but I agree with you. A zoomlens is the cheating version of 1 lens. Looking at the US$1,899, a decent wide angle lens and portrait type (f/1.8) might have been cheaper than the zoom, and have given f/1.8 with less depth of field.

[@pocphotocompany]

Thanks for the video

[@ajbid805]

400mm f2.8 in the city! It’s not practical but it would be a fun challenge for you!

[@fuji3164]

It's actually good ,gives nice shallow depth and beautiful bokeh

[@toddlower5546]

Where's the link for Renee?

[@danielcosug8083]

Thanks.. master the 16 35 it will be nice too

[@fuji3164]

Too.wide for portraits though 😅

[@Mowikan]

One lens challenge. Hold my beer and let me get most versatile zoom lens that you can buy….

[@venturevlogz]

You look like drake, if he was a photographer. Goat

[@crayshaunhenderson1265]

want to buy at least 3 lenses and that's it i really want a lens that i can keep on there to take all the shots i need instead of having to switch lenses to catch the shot i want

[@andrewcorrea5414]

My hood is alot bigger then most i seen not sure why

[@mayo5709]

A 30 minutos

[@Kleastic]

Points and shoot is a one lens camera that could do about the same shots you just showed

[@hiawrj]

Great, but wtf is that colorgrading on the pictures with the branch in the foreground 🤣 maybe just don't do that again 😅

[@adeliu3127]
