Composition Tips with a 24-70mm Zoom Lens

During this photoshoot, I’m using the Sony A7IV paired with the Samyang 24-70mm f2.8 zoom lens. This zoom lens gives me a lot of flexibility while shooting as it allows me to capture both wide and tight compositions without changing lenses. This is especially helpful is fast paced environments or when taking photos on a time crunch. While taking portraits, I’m also sharing a few of my go to composition tips for working with a standard zoom like this.

The Tamron 150-500mm F5-6.7 Di III VC VXD is an ultra telephoto zoom lens for Sony FE mount, similar and a little bit cheaper than the Sony FE 200-600mm F5.6-6.3 G OSS.
