    For Sony E, check out the Tamron lenses. Much smaller, lighter and less expensive than Sony counterparts. IMO too much equipment, too much detail and 1 camera brand would do the same job, but everyone can make their own choice on how much to carry in their travels.

    Hi Belinda, great video. Very useful information and real life experiences. I have the Nikon Z7II; which I like very much. I have the 24-70 F4; which works very well. However it is not the F2.8; which is lot more expensive. I have been using the Nikon 24-120 F4 lens and it takes some very good pictures. It is a very versatile focal length and I use it a lot. I have haven't won any photo contest's yet, but did two honorable mentions. If the two lenses I mentioned above were f2.8 in lieu of the F4, how much better would the image quality be and would the additional weight be worth the upgrade. Thank you, I love your videos. thank you for sharing.

    • @BelindaShi
      @BelindaShi Месяц назад

      Hi John, if you enjoy the current lenses, there is no need to upgrade. The picture quality is more determined by the photographer's skill than the equipment. Having said this, if you intend to use wide aperture for shallow depth of field often (eg. for portrait), or if you photograph indoor scenarios or low light conditions often, then it's worth trying the 2.8. However, if you photograph landscape more often, and value weight and size (no one wants extra pounds for a wilderness hike), then go for the f4. I believe I've answered your question in my mirrorless camera ultimate buying free video guide as well. Thanks for your comments and input. Hope this helps.

    For people like me, who use photos to store memories with family and friends, making storytelling photo is the most important. Not the camera, not the lens, not the film simulations, but how can photos speak and tell what happend that day. We took the camera everywhere we went for 1 year, then printed some of the best and put them in an album. This allows us to remember how precious moments our family have spent together. How our child are grown and we are getting old. Your tip number 6 is truly extraordinary. Some of the photos included are also very telling. Those sample photos are also awesome. Thank You. Unfortunately, this photography tip "how to make photos tell more stories" is not widely reviewed on RUclips. I think this theme could be something that will make your channel a bit different but more valuable.

    Interesting Belinda. But of course horses for courses. Your 'Essential' (from the title not the precis) wouldn't work for me and probably for most photographers without children (or for many with!). Mine (if anyone is even in the slightest bit interested) is based on the idea that whatever I can fit in my camera backpack comes on the plane and then I take out what I expect to require for what I'm shooting that day, leaving the rest in the hotel safe (or reception safe if a lens/camera is super expensive, though in a few decades traveling I've never had anything stolen from my hotel room) : Landscapes : Sony A7r5 + 16-35/4 PZ, Samyang 24/1.8 (+astro) and Tamron 70-200/2.8. Kase filter kit. Leofoto Tripod. Travel, Street : Olympus OM1 with Laowa 6mm (12mm FF equivalent - love this for super cool distorted views of narrow lanes etc.), Laowa 10mm (20mm equivalent), Oly 12-40mm Pro (24-80mm equivalent), Oly 17/1.8 (34mm equivalent) and a Sigma 56/1.4 (112mm equivalent). Note most of these lenses are tiny (ca. 125g each for 3 of them) but fast for use in low light. Total kit weight ca. 1.5 kgs (camera + 5 lenses). Note that the OM1 has an insanely good IBIS (ca. x8 better than my A7r5 due to the smaller sensor being so much easier to stabilise, easily enabling shutter speeds down to 4 secs handheld) and numerous fun computational functions (ND filters, live composites and 60MP Hi-res, all spitting out RAW files) that help with shooting very low shutter speeds, composited images or aiding with difficult scenes. All of the above easily fits in an airline acceptable bag (tripod in my plane hold bag). Anyway I've watched a few of your videos and enjoy them so look forward to viewing more !

    • @BelindaShi
      @BelindaShi 2 месяца назад

      Thanks Kevin. Great input. I'm exactly the same. All my gear has to fit in my camera backpack and they come with me on the plane. I use mostly 1 camera and 1 lens (max 2) for a particular day (mentioned in the video) to minimize lens change. Everyone's different. I'd say whatever camera or lens you use most often and enjoy using is the best gear.
