This has got to be one of the cheapest autofocus lenses available for Canon DSLR cameras, I picked up mine used for about $30 USD. The Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM is a compact and affordable prime lens offering a wide aperture for low-light shooting and creative depth of field control aka bokeh! This is a great lens for beginners and gives a very budget friendly entry into DSLR photography. These are the photos I captured with it.
This set of photos is a portrait photoshoot I did on the streets of Sydney using the Canon 5D mkIV + Canon EF 24-70mm f2.8 lens.
The Canon EOS R6 is a full frame mirrorless camera body featuring 20MP files and dual card slots. I am using it for portrait photography with the RF 35mm f1.8. This 35mm is a budget friendly RF mount lens for Canon. It is a small and lightweight lens and features a Control Ring.
The Sigma 35mm f1.4 DG HSM Art Lens for Canon EF is a budget friendly, fast prime lens. I am using the Sigma 35mm f1.4 on the Canon 5D mark4 for portrait photography.
In this portrait photoshoot, I share 5 tips for better portrait locations even when you find yourself in a mundane location. The photos in this creative photoshoot behind the scenes were shot on the Canon 5D mk4 + Canon EF 35mm f1.4 mk1.
The Canon RF 50mm f1.2 and Sony Zeiss 50mm f1.4 are two flagship, high-end 50mm lenses. In this comparison we are going to be putting both lenses head to head in a real world setting. I am using the RF 50mm f1.2 on the Canon ROS R5. And the Zeiss 50mm f1.4 is being used on the Sony A7III.
In this tutorial, I share with you how to take sharp photos on a DSLR camera. This tutorial in particular focuses (no pun intended!) on how to take sharp portraits when shooting wide open at f1.2 and capturing movement at the same time.
The Canon EOS R6 is a 20MP, full frame, mirrorless camera. I am using the R6 with the RF 28-70mm f2.8 zoom lens for these portraits. The EOS R6 is a camera aimed at enthusiast photographers and videographers, sitting below Canon's 45MP EOS R5.
In this photography tutorial, learn how to pose your clients for a portrait photoshoot. These are easy posing prompts that you can use for a subject who isn’t comfortable in front of the camera.
I’m testing out and reviewing the Canon R5 and RF 50mm f1.2. Here are some images I took from my real world review video of the camera which you can watch down below to see how the eye AF performance and accuracy works, image quality with my unedited 100% crops, 4K and 8K video performance and low light capabilities. I also used the Canon EOS R5 with both and RF and EF lenses.
In this photography tutorial, I share my thought process behind how I find locations for my portrait photography!
The Tamron 35-150mm f2.8-4 is a variable aperture zoom lens for Canon EF mount cameras and I am using it on the Canon 5D mk4. We are doing a portrait photography in natural light on the streets of Sydney photoshoot to test this lens in a real world setting.
The Tamron 35-150mm f/2.8-4 Di VC OSD is a versatile all-in-one zoom third party Canon lens designed for Canon EF and can be used via adapter to RF. The Tamron 35-150mm f2.8-4 it's especially appealing to travel and portrait photographers due to its flexible focal range and relatively fast aperture.
In this portrait photoshoot, I am using the Canon EOS R with the native RF 24-70mm f2.8 zoom lens. We test autofocus performance + accuracy and take a look at image quality + sharpness with 100% crop SOOC photos.
The Tamron 35mm f1.8 is a budget friendly, small and lightweight lens for Canon cameras. For this real world portrait photography review, I am using this lens on the full frame Canon 5D mkiv.
I’m using the Canon EOS R and the RF to EF adaptor to test the performance of Canon’s original EF L-series lenses on their new mirrorless line.
The Tamron SP 35mm F1.4 Di is a prime lens for Canon EF mount and Nikon F mount. I am using the Tamron 35mm f1.4 for portrait photography on the Canon EOS R and the Canon 5Dmk4.
In today’s photoshoot I borrowed a friend’s Canon 24-70mm f2.8 and wanted to try it out at a natural light portrait session!
For today’s photoshoot I thought it would be fun to compare 2 extreme apertures while capturing natural light portraits. I picked a few different locations that I thought would suit both apertures and shot pictures of Claudia and f1.2 and also f16.
For today’s photoshoot I am finally using the Canon EOS-1 V again, this time with Portra 160 & 400 film. I over, on and under exposed a few of these shots to see which style I preferred, then while scanning the film I brought back the exposure so all my images looked cohesive. I was personally leaning towards always preferring what skin tones looked like in the overexposed images while scanning, so maybe next time I shoot on a roll of Portra I will overexpose a little more often.
