Changing your lens is
like changing your language.

Like me, you are used to working with the same 35mm, a sudden shift to an 85mm can be intimidating. It feels like starting from scratch and having to learn a new alphabet, new syntax.

It’s confusing, even destabilizing and the temptation to give up is great. But photography is an art of perseverance. A photographer is fueled by doubts and uncertainty, and I love photography for that very reason.

You never know where you are going; or if it’s going to be any good. It’s like digging a hole in the ground searching for gold and not knowing if there is any gold to be found.

This is how I was feeling the other day when I put the lovely MF 85mm F1.4 on my Sony Alpha rii as
I was preparing for an all-day trek in La Réunion.

This tiny island in the Indian Ocean, located east of Madagascar, is a natural gem of valleys and volcanos, a paradise for trekkers. Each October, the island hosts ‘La Diagonale des Fous’, one of the most difficult Ultra Trails in the world. But we are getting away from our story here. As I was saying, I’m not a frequent 85mm user, since as a reporter, I prioritize angles from 24mm to 50mm. In my mind, the 85mm is a perfect lens for portrait photography as well as staged shows (concerts, opera, theatre, etc).

I never really considered this lens for landscape photography, and I am not the biggest fan of that field. So, I figured it would be a superb challenge to use the 85 mm on my trekking day, focusing on details instead of sprawling landscapes (which is what most people would be tempted to do in front of any jaw-breaking scenery - including myself).

There I was, sweating under the Indian Ocean sun and trying to keep up the pace with my friend.

Our objective was to walk down the slope of a volcano into a valley called ‘Grand Bassin’. From there, we would make our way to a waterfall and have lunch before heading back. The first thing I noticed about the 85mm was its weight, or lack thereof. It felt nice not to be bothered by the camera while I was descending the volcano. While the Samyang 85mm is not the most discrete lens, its weight seemed almost imperceptible!

To add a little spice to my Samyang’s adventure, I chose to shoot in black and white, mostly because I think color landscape photography is boring and also because I am a big Ansel Adams fan. The walk down Grand Bassin went smoothly and when fine, we reached the waterfall, it was time for lunch, so we enjoyed the fresh water, relaxing our tired muscles and weary bones.

I then wanted to investigate the stabilization of the 85mm, so I took a coupled of shots from the waterfall with a slow speed shutter and was very pleased by the result once again.

It was soon time to end our little recreation and make our way back to our car. only this time going up. We had been foolish to think it would be fine to start the ascension after 4 pm. The heat hit us by surprise and it quickly dawned on us that the end of the trek would be a nightmare. Surprisingly, I managed to get some of my best shots while enduring a lot of unnecessary physical pain!

What I can say about the 85mm is that it is not the most practical lens if you are going to shoot subjects in

Being a manual lens, the focus is not always easy to get through the Sony viewfinder. I would recommend it for portrait landscape photography. and if you enjoy working calmly and taking your time, then it’s a good pick. If you are into sports photography, forget it. Over all, I wouldn’t say that the 85mm is my personal cup of tea, but that has nothing to do with Samyang. In fact, the lens surprised me during and after the shoot as I was looking at the pictures on my laptop (as featured) and found myself taken aback by how sharp the images were. While I will never be Ansel Adams and cannot speak for the man, I’m pretty assured he would have liked to give this lens a try!

森养最佳标准画角提案解析

从人与人之间的关系乃至为了营造美丽的空间而布置装饰品时都需要保持适当的距离。那么,为了更好地欣赏美术或摄影作品,我们应该保持多少距离?

答案是相当于“作品框架对角线的长度”的距离。

표준화각 자료 이미지
표준화각 자료 이미지

为了将作品完整地纳入视野并予欣赏,保持相当于作品对角线的距离为宜。如果距离过近,将大于人眼可集中精力的50°视角而无法取的良好的欣赏效果。

为了最佳欣赏效果与最佳视角而保持理想距离也适用于摄影技术。在拍摄静止画像的摄影技术中,将等于摄像面对角线长度的焦距镜头定义为标准镜头。数码相机的全帧传感器尺寸为36x24毫米,其对角线距离约为43.26毫米,标准镜头应为多少毫米以下的最理想答案可以称为“接近43.26毫米的数据”,而难以断定是至今被视作标准镜头代名词的“50毫米”。

以往与胶片对角线长度相仿的45mm画角镜头较为常见,随着SLR相机大获成功,为了保留可容纳反射镜的空间,50mm被视作标准镜头。但是,最近随着无反相机底边大幅放大, 鉴于无反相机法兰距短的特点,需要将标准镜头的画角以45mm再度予以解释,由此开始研发AF 45mm F1.8 FE。 与35mm画角镜头相比,三阳的AF 45mm F1.8 FE将畸变现象降至最低,且比55mm画角拍摄范围宽,为人物、风景、建筑物及宠物等各种主题摄影呈献令人满意的效果。

什么是预设光圈功能?

在预设光圈功能中,光圈可以像”控制环操作音消除(De-click)镜头“一样丝滑驱动,为视频拍摄提供支持。

富士相机的设计根据最小曝光量(F-stop)控制光圈,当相机控制光圈时,会依靠短暂闪烁来调节曝光。而AF 75mm F1.8 X不会向机身传送光圈信息,这种刻意的“预设光圈功能”无需闪烁就可让平滑的曝光调节变为可能。只需控制光圈就可以使ISO和快门速度适应不同的曝光环境,因此即使采用1/2 F-stop也依然可以调节曝光。

有哪些预设光圈功能的使用建议?

预设光圈功能仅能在视频拍摄模式下运行。 建议在f/1.8光圈和A、M曝光模式下使用该功能。有关“预设光圈功能”的使用建议请参考上表。

* 预设光圈功能的使用方法

1) 设置相机机身
      AF模式 → 视频拍摄模式(“A”或“M”模式)→ 光圈值固定在f/1.8
(2) AF 75mm F1.8 X镜头设置
      将“自定义开关”切换为“模式2(M2)”
(3) 使用对焦环调整预设光圈

Dolly shot是什么?介绍摄影办法

[Dolly Shot是什么?]

一般利用带轮子的车,根据调整相机变焦的速度前后移动拍摄的技术。这导致被摄体和背景的倍率差异,从而将梦幻效应记录在视频中。

[简单用手持拍Dolly shot的方法]

Tip.如果移动距离长,相机可能会晃动,请在35~100mm区间拍摄。
1.距离被摄体约1.5~2m左右。
2.将自定义开关切换到MF和Mode3后,将视角设定在100mm左右。
3.通过调节对焦环聚焦被摄物,然后将光圈设置为F8~16。
4.利用上身和手臂,将相机靠近被摄体,将变焦操作慢慢向左(广角方向)转动。
5. 完成Dolly shot!
※在与拍摄对象更远的距离拍摄时,使用卡丁车或万向稳定器等,可以更稳定地进行拍摄。
