Before homecoming dance. 135 GM wide open:
Nice shot, Fred. I love fast 135's for doing exactly that...backing up, being able to go full body and still get very nice background separation. I think fast lenses get knocked at times for encouraging the 'tip of the nose and ears out of focus' look but really I think they're best deployed with some distance between photographer and subject.
Thanks!
Sometimes the FE 135/1.8 is way too sharp but I can't complain about its rendering. Somehow Sony found a great balance for portraits and sports.
Here is a 1:1 crop screenshot from the image above:
I liked the original shot but the 1:1 I was hoping for a bit better. Maybe it is due to the web compression or something else. I am not a Sony shooter, just ordered A7rIV and trying to get a lens. Really intrigued by this 135mm GM but want to test the waters slowly. My reference is Fuji GFX50s with 110mm f2.
