Sony A6700 Photo and Video Review

The A6700 is an APS-C hybrid camera body with a 26 megapixel backside illuminated sensor. This camera features the new AI autofocus system first introduced by the A7RV. This means the A6700 has real time recognition autofocus since it features an AI processing unit just like the A7RV. It's great to see this new AF tech in an APS-C body especially considering price point of the camera.

Pro Mist vs No Mist filter for Portrait Photography

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.

Macro Lens Portrait Photography: Tokina Firin 100mm f2.8 FE + Sony A7IV

The Tokina Firin 100mm f2.8 Macro is a prime lens for Sony E-mount. I am using this lens on the Sony A7IV in the studio. I wanted a minimal look for today's beauty shoot so I am using the Silvertone backdrop from Superior. I styled Bella in an off the shoulder top so we don't have any outfits or fabrics distracting from the portraits.

The BEST 135mm f1.8 Portrait Lens for Sony

During this portrait photoshoot, I am comparing the Sony GM 135mm f1.8 vs Samyang AF 135mm f1.8 vs Sigma 135mm f1.8 Art DG HSM. I am using all 3 lenses on one Sony A7IV camera body to make sure we have identical settings during our tests. Watch my comparison video below to see SOOC, 1:1 views of all the photos. I share comparisons of the image quality, sharpness and bokeh. I also compare the AF performance and autofocus accuracy to see who makes the best 135mm prime for Sony cameras.

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.

How to Pose Men for Portrait Photography

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!
