    Nikon 28 1.4E

    Hi All, I have a lens dilemma which I'm trying to justify. Currently my lens line up consists of the Nikon 35mm 1.4G, 58mm 1.4G, 85mm 1.4G and 70 - 200 vrii, which I mostly use for weddings. I'm generally happy with all of them but not against the idea of swapping out a lens here and there if...

    Wedding photography Autofocus issues

    Yes absolutely, hence why I'm trying to improve my percentage of keepers. I've AF fine-tuned all my lenses, and so far I've always made sure I have a second shooter (who incidentally shoots with Sony A&ii's ). So in the instances I've had some missed focus, I've usually had some back-up, and...

    Wedding photography Autofocus issues

    Was wondering if any more experienced wedding photographers out there would be able to give me some guidance. Basically over the last few months I've started photographing weddings, and I've come to realise that I'm getting a large proportion of shots with missed focus, particularly in...

    24-70 zoom or wide angle prime for Nikon?

    Another good review here. https://mirrorlesscomparison.com/z-mount-lenses/nikkor-z-35mm-1-8s-vs-35mm-1-8g-vs-35mm-1-4g-vs-sigma-35mm-1-4-art/

    24-70 zoom or wide angle prime for Nikon?

    Its true, I've only really used it on the d750 so far. But for anyone who follows Taylor Jackson on youtube, I notice that he's started to use the same lens on the D850, and seems to rate it highly.

    24-70 zoom or wide angle prime for Nikon?

    For anyone interested I decided to go out and get the Nikon 35mm 1.4G secondhand, and sell the 24-70. As Andy suggested, it might have been good to have the 24-70 as a back up, but considered it too heavy and too expensive just for that purpose. First impressions of the Nikon 35 are that its...

    24-70 zoom or wide angle prime for Nikon?

    Thanks both for your comments. Definitely good to hear your opinions. What Andy said above actually makes a lot of sense to me. So at least for the time being I'll keep the 24-70 and likely pair it with a 35mm lens and go from there. I actually have owned the Sigma Art in the past for a fairly...

    24-70 zoom or wide angle prime for Nikon?

    Hi all, I'm pretty new to wedding photography, and am in a bit of a lens dilemma. I'm sure there will be similar threads elsewhere, but I wanted to get some opinions on my specific situation. I have now shot a total of 5 weddings, with more coming up in the near future. I shoot Nikon and...

    Nikon D610 Wedding Photography

    Thanks so much everyone for your comments. You've convinced me to give the d750 a go. I hadn't realised how much the price has come down, but I just checked, and at just £1060 brand new, it seems like a no brainer. :) I would definitely like to upgrade the d800 to a d810 too in the not to...

    Nikon D610 Wedding Photography

    Hi all, Just looking for some opinions from those who have experience with Nikon DSLR's for wedding photography. I've been photographing seriously for around 7 years, and in the last few months I have decided to try my hand at wedding photography, armed with a Nikon D800 and a D610 as my main...
