Sony 70-350mm ~ first impressions from the highest peak in Lugo

[@jan-nilss.680]

I found this video because of the lense... but what i found was a gem... I love your photos! these are so motivating!

[@CalmBefore6]

This lense is so zoom it turns your camera into a drone ;) nice vid.

[@aows]

Haha, that's a way to put it! Thank you!

[@krjbalan1264]

Thats e best part 😂

[@gbwalther3198]

Great Intro: "Merry Christmas! :) Then, "Merry Christmas again. Merry Christmas to me indeed." Now what photographer wouldn't like that with a new lens! 😎😎

I switched from Canon gear and I was shooting on a 7D Mark-2 and a 6D Mark-2. As part of my lens lineup, I owned a 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS ii lens and loved it. However, I didn't use it all that much because of the weight and size! Unless I was planning to shoot planes or wildlife, I would generally leave it home because it was too heavy to carry. When I switched to Sony, I decided not to purchase the 100-400mm or 200-600mm Sony lens because I was sure that I would not get enough use out of either lens. However, the 70-350mm f/4.5-6.3 G OSS lens is reasonably light so I purchased one. My A6400 and this lens weighs less than half of what the 7D2 and 100-400mm lens weighed. Sure, I can only use this lens on a crop sensor camera but, I never used the Canon telephoto on my full frame Canon body. I always used it on the 7D2. The image quality and autofocus capability is very good to excellent and I am quite happy with this lens...

[@DavidChristmas]

I'm currently in a similar situation like you, and I'm thinking of getting this lens for the A6700. Would you say the autofocus speed and accuracy, and the image quality is the same or better than the Canon EF 100-400 IS II USM lens?

[@grimlightwildoutdoors]

It’s an apsc lens not a full frame lens as you stated. It’s a great lens for wild life and street photography enjoy it. 👍👌❤️

[@jeipi22]

He visto este vídeo y estoy en la misma situación que tú, mi 55-210 me ha dado buenas sesiones pero al salir mucho al campo quería un zoom mayor pero sin peso excesivo. Gracias por tu información, mañana iré a comprarlo. Además está dentro de la promo de Sony y te reembolsan 50€.

[@Lucamitm]

Hace tiempo de este video ahora que lo veo, cómo te sigue gustando el lente ? Gracias

[@pf4773]

Hi, thanks so much for this video! I have the Sony A6600 and 55-210 lens so this comparison was great to see. I'm concerned about the heaviness of the lens since the 55-210 is so light, but otherwise love it (wish it was cheaper!). I agree, I'm not thinking of switching to full frame for a long time to come because I travel, and honestly, can't handle large heavy equipment. Thanks again!

[@b.m.4624]

This long lenses are very good for mountains ,I use them very often to concentrate my pictures.With wide lenses I am not so successful taking good pictures! Have a lot fun !

[@aows]

It's hard to do with a wide angle lens, so few options when you are faced with a big vista. Thanks for watching, Bernd!

[@RishiRajKoul]

How is the image quality compared to 70 - 200 f 4?

[@medellinvisitor]

Thank You

[@aows]

Thank you!

[@saskatchewandave]

Did you end up finding a tripod mount for it?

[@JGcd001]

Im going to get this for my a9

[@sjaakhosters419]

This preview almost looks like a promotion video from the local tourist board, it's really beautiful with the drone images. So well done, and a lot of efforts in this honest preview. Btw. your workshop tool wall doesn't leave much space for an addition 😊

[@aows]

Thanks! And no, there's not much room left haha. That's my dad's work area, though :)

[@tropyedits3657]

Really like the vibes of your videos particularly with the drone cinematics and your photos after :) also telephoto lens are my favs types of lenses, it gives a more natural feeling compared to something smaller than 50 or 55 millimeters

[@aows]

Thank you! Yes, I love using them :)

[@EdgarSnowSki]

Nice review thanks! I had canon 400 prime before and it weighted almost 1.2 kg and no stabilization. So there is no tipod mount I think the reason is that having oss and lightweight makes it easier for hand shot and tripod not really required. I only worrie that 6.3 might be too dark, looking for a good deals on this lens now, and hopefully they will open Alps soon! Stay safe!

[@lb_projekt]

nice photos!

[@carlossanz249]

¡Que gustazo ver un vídeo en inglés sobre fotografía con subtítulos en español!. Gracias mil.

[@JackLodestar]

Do you have other sample images now that it's been a year already?

[@capacitymedia]

I love your work // very beautiful

[@ricardonavarro4942]

Genial video y hermosas fotos !

[@aows]

Muchas gracias, Ricardo!

[@socraam]

Q bien poder ver un poco d Galicia en un canal sobre fotografia :)

[@lordjohnsadventures2085]

what type of drone did you use? great video

[@SteffenSieben]

Did you find a ring to attach it properly to the tripod?

[@Lc_Sebastian]

Buen video! tengo el a6600 con el 16-55 y deseo mucho este 70-350, y encima tiene OSS incorporado. A cuantas FPS grabaste el video? 60?

[@xmarcika]

I love your photos a lot. The look is like a film. How are you creating such a nice grain? I can’t create it whatever I’m doing

[@borishasarrived5524]

What are these 2 red little things attached on the camera body?

[@Sphyix]

I would like to know as well

[@funnyanduseful2083]

Do you uploading photos or videos to shutterstock ? )) Logo -Sony - is hided under black tape )). Is this lens useful for video shooting ?

[@countbasingstoke]

whats the thing sitting in the flash holder area?

[@Sonic-Boom]

Looks like a spirit-level type bubble. I've never seen that before.

[@amitkrupal1234]

Magnificent

[@gerardg6533]

Merci. Cordialement. Gérard

[@jakew3]

Hi I really like the video! Cool music and drone footage. Great work. Here in the US the lens is currently $898 plus taxes. Holding off until the price goes down a little!

[@MrSwaggernaut83]

Was the drone footage from the Mavic Mini? Also great lens, and good video!

[@aows]

Thank you! It was a mix between Mavic Mini (mine) and Mavic Pro (my uncle's, he very generously let me use the footage).

[@paolosoddu9642]

I'm just wondering why you don't switch to u4/3, the format offer: - great image stabilisation - super long reach (due to the 2x factor) with smaller lenses - a lot of options to choose between cheap, medium and expensive lenses

[@aows]

I love the concept of micro 4/3! And how rugged some of those cameras are. But honestly, they are usually bigger than my APS-C cameras, almost as big (if not bigger) than some full-frame. And it'd be hard (or expensive) to get good and fast wide angle lenses. This is the reason why I'm thinking about full-frame for wide and APS-C for telephoto... not sure what to do.

[@paolosoddu9642]

@@aows i get the struggle Adrian :') For full frame you have the option of the original a7. 500€ used and still a great sensor. With your type of photography I don't think (based on what I've read and saw so far) you will feel the need for a better autofocus and things like that. BTW HUUUUUUGE fan of your work, I have been stuck without the inspiration, but man your approach makes me want to take a camera (maybe not my x100f with its fixed lens) a tripod and go somewhere. With a dog I don't have. I'm still waiting for the book to arrive eh! ;)

[@Lucamitm]

@@aowsthe sony 10-18mm for apsc is great

[@tristan3665]

Beautiful

[@aows]

It is a beautiful place :) Thanks for watching!

[@mrsusan893]

Wow that old zoom lens was very soft

[@aows]

It really is!

[@sovuhar]

It depends.. I had a chance to choose 1 out of 3 at my local camera store and it's 80% sharp throughout its focal ranges. the other 2 copies were terrible though.
