Why you NEED one of these LENSES (and LIGHT!)

[@Bodhiscott22]

Mads ebook = ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌌🌌

[@anthonyplancherel8274]

Glorious quiet beauty! Stunning photography! ...and you once said you didn't know much about poetry...but how visually poetic are those composition! Top drawer!!!

[@Giottocheir]

Hi Mads, my grandparents are from Seggiano , a small town close to Val D'Orcia. I felt so proud watching your beautiful videos and pictures of a place I feel so deeply attached to, a place where my hearth belongs. Thank you for your amazing work and hope you enjoyed Tuscany and Italy!

[@JaypeaFoto]

I love the zoomed version of the tree in the field. The rolling hills are so cool.

[@hjones451]

It's the excitement of the adventure that keeps us going - I went 7 days without even a nap, not recommended.

[@michaelgoulding4425]

Great video Mads and a wonderful series. "Oh my yum yum" summed it up perfectly 😉

[@hjones451]

I stopped in the Cadenet and Luberon regions of Provence a few years ago - Very similar experuence - Too good to sleep - Poppy, Lavender & Sunflower fields in early to Mid June.

[@neilcole3406]

The abstract looks like it could be a rumpled blanket on a bed! Beautiful

[@lisasimpson9343]

Tuscany is just beautiful. Lucky people on your workshop. The crops looked like velvet, and that light...... Thank you Mads

[@markwayne8502]

To quote someone I know…..”absolutely gorgeous “!

[@ingabett]

WOW! Completely blown away by the beauty you captured! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻💛

[@LeeAllen337]

I've got a 70-300mm Tamron and I love it. I use it a lot more than my 28-70mm for landscape.

[@wednesdaythroughthelens830]

You are blessing to all of us who love photography. Such a great eye for an image. I have been to Tuscany several times, it is breathtaking!

[@mortenandersen6313]

Beautiful compositions. I love every bit of your Toscana experiences. Thanks for sharing.

[@paulbenson3441]

Hi Mads, such beautiful photographs in only 50 mins. The rolling fields looked like folds of golden velvet. Soft light and soft textures. Really like them Mads.

[@randybottphotography]

You should plan a trip to the Palouse where Nick Page lives. Early June is the best time for the rolling fields of wheat and canola, lone trees, old barns, etc. Amazing place.

[@MarkRomine]

Love shooting long lens landscapes. Rented a 200-500 for my trip out west last fall to shoot the Aspen trees in Colorado. Loved it! I shot a lot more with it than I thought I would.

[@scotty4418]

What another wonderful collection of images from Tuscany, the golden light was exceptional Mads. In terms of the two images, this was a tough choice but I think the one of the left attracted my eye more. Whilst the tree was less dominant compared to the image on the right the image on the left had more layers infused with the beautiful light to take the eye through the image. Also loved the image at 13:16 as the framing of the bushes/trees from bottom left to top right is a great example of why someone would benefit in buying your ebooks as they have the chance to learn from such an accomplished photographer all about composition

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot, Jim! Yes, there's definitely more context in the left version, but the tree stands out just as much :)

[@trevorsneath4665]

Zoomed out version, for sure. And that photo with the zig-zag river from top left to bottom right? Killer shot!

[@cloudrippr]

Beautiful. Zoomed out is my choice.

[@andrewhowell437]

Wonderful. I love how you see and photograph the beauty in what many would consider undramatic landscape.

[@arthurb1400]

I've got the Tamron 70-300 for travelling and hiking. It doesn't have the reach of 100-400 but it's much lighter and makes the job done.

[@charlesandaloro7709]

Mads I really like the way you create images of interest using backlight. It inspires me to see another way to make great images.

[@kot-duott]

For some reason I like your vertical shots in this video way better than horizontal

[@4gharpure]

I love the zoomed out one!

[@cherryjunphotography79]

Thank you so much for the remind me that I have a zoom lens! Yesterday morning I went to shoot sunrise at the local beach in the morning. I try many compositions before sunrise with my 16-35mm lens and I didn't like the compositions. If I have seen this video earlier I might have some good images. I will go to that local beach again soon with the zoom lens.

[@sharylkriete]

I rented the Sony 100-400 mm a few weeks ago and fell in love with it. I took it out for wildlife photos but ended up using it more to capture the spectacular landscape. I didnt realize what an amazing and versatile lens it is.

[@SteveP_2426]

Definitely the zoomed out version at 10:26 Mads. never been to Tuscany but certainly looks a fantastic location

[@robertleem5643]

Another excellent video, photos were amazing

[@1WillyK]

I love shooting with my Fuji xf70-300. And if I really need to reach out a little farther I have a 1.4x teleconverter as well. This setup works extremely well other than being a little soft at full reach. Thanks for another great video. Tuscany looks amazing.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Nice! I think that's the same with the Sony, a little soft in the very long end.

[@barryobrien1890]

Reminds me of the palouse in Washington state. Nice video. Thanks

[@randyschwager2515]

More great info! I prefer the wider shot of the tree!

[@HawkFest]

Nice! Btw, did you use any filter?

[@neilcole3406]

Man, l got to go to Tuscany! What a stunning part of the world!

[@peternickols2687]

Love all the shadows and lines in those fields and i much prefer the zoomed out version of that lone tree. What a great time you had. Although being a farmer I wouldn’t want to work those fields, way too hilly for me, but fantastic for photography. 👍

[@DinoPozo]

Hi Mads Totally agree, a 100-400mm lens is good equipment for landscape photography, otherwise it will depend on the location, point of interest and photographic eye we have behind the camera. Incredible photos as we are used to both in your videos and Instagram and the experience you transmit.

[@lynnk8887]

The abstract of the field near the end could be mistaken for a soft blanket. Awesome.

[@gaetanoscalfidi]

Not only a great set of images but also an amazing photography experience!

[@cmichaelhaugh8517]

Those are the images that come to mind when I imagine Tuscany! I too was just up for 24 hours shooting astro after a full day of work. This time though I found out that I don’t recover nearly as fast at 77 as I did when I was your age 🙄

[@SLYKER77]

Beautiful 😍

[@Stillfilm1]

Exquisite images as always Mads but those abstract fields.... I wanted to stroke, they looked like velvet fabric. I'm sad your Tuscany adventure is over, it was wonderful, thank you.

[@dipanjanmukherjeephotography]

Excellent video and nice photos as always. Does a teleconverter on top of 70-200 has the same image quality or crop would be the best if I don't have super zoom lens like 100-400mm? Thanks once again 👍

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Marvelous job even with being soo tired buddy !! Super shots

[@robertwhitemoto]

Just beautiful!

[@EXPLOREMOREFILMS]

Yum yum.

[@schoeferfilm]

I have the 70-200 mm old f4 lens for my FX6 and i am very happy with this 😉👍🏻

[@AlexandruVladutu]

What do you think of the Sigma 100-400 for Sony FE? I've heard good things about it. Cheers!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

I've also heard things about it. Haven't tried it though, but from what I've learned it's a great and cheaper alternative to the Sony :)

[@davidskinner274]

Image @ 9.51 is a beauty

[@KV89-b3c]

Gorgeous images and video as always!

[@andyprime57]

Bellissimo! You should link up with Attilio Ruffo and go grab some seascapes whilst you’re in Italy 😎

[@petemellows]

I’ve literally just purchased a 150-450mm lens and I am so excited to get out and experiment!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Sweet! It's so nice being able to zoom into all those details :D

[@NeluCiorba]

I'll be there with my wife at middle of Oct, I hope we'll get good light ... silly question; I have no 100-400 but 24-70 & 70-200 v2 + 1.4 TC... Really in this case I should think about 100-400 mm? After that I'll hit Dolomites..

[@michelemei2970]

Hi Mads, as usual, great content! I'm just wandering if shooting directly into the sun could be dangerous for the sensor, expecially when the camera is pointed on the sun for a long time when using a tripod...

[@PhotoTrekr]

Nice light. Great shots. I'm trying to decide whether to take my 100-400mm on my next trip or if I can just take the 70-200mm GM II. The 70-200mm is sooo much lighter.

[@BenSussmanpro]

Is there any risk of sensor or lens damage when having the sun in your photos? They’re all beautiful?

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks, from my experience no, at least not around sunrise/sunset.

[@stoettingerphoto]

Great Episode again, Tuscany seems to be photography heaven :D

[@PMCN53]

Looks like a fabulous location! Love the images, i definitely need to use my long lens more! ( Canon 70-200 f2.8 + a x2 converter) - it’s a heavy beast though!!

[@Bodhiscott22]

Do you shoot with the ef system?

[@rn588]

Would you consider 26 megapixels decent enough for cropping in?

[@DavidTpitCabrera]

Fantastic photos, I would love to have that lens but it is so expensive 😅. Great Video 👌

[@samuelebertoli]

As I've just written to you on Instagram, Tuscany is my home region and more often than not I can spare the time to get back there. Tuscany, in general , and the province of Siena (Val D'Orcia, Crete Senesi, San Giminiano and all the other medieval hamlets) in particular are filled with incredible gems. Some of them are pretty famous and renowned while others are definitely less Known but equally amazing. I'm familiar with all the locations you've shown in this series of vlogs and if you feel like it I'd like to help you out the next time around by letting you know a great deal of less crowded spots. So that you can propose something new and particular in your workshops.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much for the offer Samuele. It's always super valuable to get a local eye on the landscape! :D

[@samuelebertoli]

@@MadsPeterIversen Always at your disposal!

[@bobcoggin4618]

Brill 👍🏻

[@mlzs_]

What is bracketing?

[@dariushjokar]

Hello mate, thank you for all of your clips , may I ask you I wanna buy this lens but 70-200mm f4, do you have any photo of this lens? I mean have you got shoot any photo of this lens? What do you think about this lens? Please

[@markwuch8936]

The 70-200 f4 it‘s a fine lens , on APSC equivalent 105-300. It‘s my favorite lens for landscape. You must be careful for flaring by this lens .

[@tonicanabate6232]

Well done! And now just go to bed and take a nap

[@davidskinner274]

Yep, agree, image at 3.33 is a bit ordinary.... can't win 'em all 😂

[@TakaTakaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Really? Are you adding sunrise etc.. during edition?

[@jrgenkauling8269]

Hvorfor ikke på dansk?

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Fordi det internationale marked er meget større ;)

[@TimvanderLeeuw]

Should we then call it the "lens-scape"? 😳

[@DaveKingMusic]

$2500 for a lens is too rich for me!

[@cameraprepper7938]

NO ! Not zoom Lenses if you want the very best details for very large prints !
