anyone hav any sample of 1/2 body~full body portrait shots using 70200 F2.8?? =)

i need the G lens

another portrait from me =)

guys im in a dilemma right now too..


i had a chance to choose a lens now..(yes any lens)..im kinda stucked inbtwn 2470 n 70200..(or probably a 135mm)..after considering my photography stlye which usually consist of portrait n product shots...i stil yet to made up my mind T_T

given that i already had a 1680...2470 would duplicates the range..so i probably would sell my 1680 n maybe..get a uwa if needed(dont think i going to get FF soon)...altho im a bokeh freak..but 1680 serves me well so far..and being consider that even i starting to take wedding assignment...i probably wont include so much bokeh since most of them would probably b a group shots...

for 70200...it would make my range very complete (1680..50mm prime..90mm prime..70200)..but what im afraid is that it wont fit in my photography style..nv really try to shoot any portrait with that long range...and as albnok said its pretty hard to shoot @ 180~200 end even for a head shot on apsc...so if that the case..wouldnt it be better of if i jsut get a 135 1.8?

pls give me some advices imagine if u were in my shoes..

no..im not getting FF soon..unless there's another FF with liveview released b4 replacement of a700 comes out..which i think its highly unlikely...

haha..noted noted..

anyway..just saw this collection which is taken by our fellow alpha member from alphanatics(also a moderator of alpha forum in singapore)...

taken with apsc(a700) and 70200... =)

haha..but selling in msia would probably bcome a big problem for me

1)pretty hard to deal since im in jb
2)msia has cheaper price for new lens
3)high singapore xchange rate



anyway..im just considering the options available for me...would only sell if 2470 is the one im getting..

haha..u'd b supprised even handphone camera users blocking ur view all over the places...


blocking view might not be an issue for me..since i dont shoot models with lots of ppl..usually shooting in 1 to 1 situation =)
and yes..i like that kind of portrait style...been influenced by 2 indonesia photographers which r using 1D M3(x1.28) and 5D M2(x1) @ 200mm F2.0......

moo..the exchange rate now is 2.4 =p thats y i said selling in msia is pretty hard..lol



@weigie
shhh..don spoil my market..i treat u macdonald after that =p

i think its about how u define u learning journey....

i bought my a300 as the first camera of my life..and i didnt go to any workshop nor having friends with dslr...all i do is learn bit by bit all by myself and some helpful forumers to give me some pointers once inawhile...to me..its kinda fun exploring the world of photography..all the trails n errors..and satisfying result at the end of the day..

if u prefer to have some proper lesson..u can always go to the sony workshops..or at the very least..having TT with bros here right? =D

ok..after much consideration btwn 2470 n 70200....i've made up my mind....

i'll choose...

my gf...bday coming =)

u can start prepare ur gift now =p

welcome to the family...shoot more~


haha..try to poison me back when im just about to give up??

wow..this is stunning..love it~ <3

nice shoes shot~!

but the background looks abit yellowish on my screen

some slightly diff style of 'photography' from me =)


a300
iso200
50mm
F1.4
F58 @ 1/1 + DIY ring from the front

took me 80shots non stop dropping the apple to get a slightly better one =.=


c&c would be appreciated =)

err...i always try my best to shoot it if it could be achieved by photography..

lol..feel free to use it...its the greatest compliment to me =)
