How good is the SONY a7V × FE 70-200mm F2.8 GM OSS II for street photography?
I also compare the difference in bokeh between 70mm and 200mm at f/2.8 with real sample shots.
In this video, I took the SONY a7V × FE 70-200mm F2.8 GM II out for some street photography in Chinatown and the city streets.
To be honest, many people think a 70-200mm lens is "not suitable for street photography," but once you actually use it, you'll discover a completely different perspective.
Walking in POV, this video shows you exactly:
・How I find my subjects
・Why I chose specific compositions
・How I organize the frame using focal length
Throughout the video, I also simply explain:
・When to use 70mm vs. 200mm
・The difference in f/2.8 bokeh
・The mindset of choosing lenses for street photography
▼ What you'll learn in this video:
・Why a 70-200mm is actually "great" for street photography
・The difference in perspective between 70mm and 200mm
・How f/2.8 bokeh changes (with real examples)
