I spent a morning doing landscape photography around Lake Bled in Slovenia using the Sony A7IV with the GM 35mm f1.4 lens.

Should you use a Mist filter for your portrait photography? During this portrait photoshoot, I take side by side photos using a Pro-Mist Filter vs not using a filter. I organised this portrait session with Wiktoria while I was travelling through Poznan, Poland in the summer.
Choosing the right focal length for the scene is half the work in photography. Depending on what focal length you choose, can drastically change what the photo looks like. In this series, I will be comparing all main prime lens focal lengths at portrait photoshoots. We are starting this series off on the wide end with the 24mm vs 35mm!
The Sony A7RV is a full frame, 61 megapixel camera for stills and video. The A7RV weighs 723g, almost as heavy as the flagship Sony A1 which weighs 736g. The Sony A7RV received a huge overhaul to Sony's well known eye AF. The A7RV now uses an AI processing unit to improve the camera's subject recognition capabilities. The new AI processing unit allows the A7RV to have better accuracy with autofocus and more variety in autofocus subjects. These autofocus subjects include humans, animals, birds, insects, trains, planes and cars. Watch my Sony A7RV real world review video below. I share real time human, animal and insect subject recognition examples in stills and video.
To create the Sony 14mm f1.8 GM lens review video, I roadtripped with Dan to the Blue Mountains during peak autumn colours. I wanted to make the most of these gorgeous orange and red leaves so Dan took portraits of me with the Sony 35mm f1.4 GM and Sony A7III.
Every portrait photographer should have a range of poses for their subject at a photoshoot. I work with many talented models who often already know how to pose and move around in front of the camera. I also work with people who have never been in front of a camera before and have no idea what to do!
The GM 35mm f1.4 is Sony’s newest and pretty much perfect 35mm prime lens for FE mount cameras. In this first impressions video I will be using the GM 35mm f1.4 lens on the Sony A7III and Sony A7C camera bodies.
The GM 35mm f1.4 is a small and sharp prime lens when paired with the Sony A7III. This 35mm f1.4 focuses with ease in strong backlight situations with both eye AF and subject tracking. In this portrait photoshoot on the GM 35mm f1.4, I share the image quality and sharpness when taking portraits at wide open apertures.
