Love the video, your interaction with the guy smoking is how every interaction with people in life should be

I was saving up for the V1... but now after seeing this and Jared Polin's review, I'm going for this. I rented the original 70-200 for a trip to AZ and I remember it just being so heavy to lug around. I got amazing shots with it, but it was a formidable lens to handle.

I used the V1 as a work horse for a few years on events and what not, it was great but i'd often try and avoid it for anything casual or creative because of the weight, it was just annoying (but got fantastic shots).

SOOO happy with the V2, the weight is honestly the biggest reason i switched over. No regrets, it is a premium priced lens, but if using for paid gigs I wouldn't hesitate to get it. :D

When you casually lay $10k worth of gear in a puddle 😱

I ordered the mk I during the Sony summer cash back sale but my local photo store somehow lost my order so in the end I didn't get it in time for the cash back and hence never got the lens. Now I'm really happy that that happened and I will definitely get the mk ii. Especially because they improved it in terms of video usage so much.

I needed to hear that "whooohooo" in the beginning twice haha

such a good energy!

Your videos and photos are just a blast. Incredibly beautiful. We don't have such a thing, imagine, you are being watched from Russia, in a town in deep Siberia. I had to use a translator, keep shooting, it's gorgeous😉

[johnrodriguez]

I love your excitement throughout the video! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experience

Im a youtuber mainly focused on travel videography . And i have experienced the older 2.8 lens is too heavy that u cant take hand held shots perfectly evenif the video quality is so great. So i have decided to go ahead with the f4 version... 😁😁 but now, im gonna go ahead with the second gen f2.8 version...

Yes, this is one Sony lens I will save up for. I have the Tamron 70-180mm for about a year now. I have watched the comparison between this lens and Tamron, this is only 200g more than the Tamron and I think I can handle it.

[evan]

The biggest downside of the v1 is just how colossally heavy he is so the decrease in 400g makes this so hard to ignore

[RollingChilife]

Always learning something interesting or new when your videos drop! Also I hope you had an amazing birthday with your family!

[Shawn-ndew]

Rocking that new lens nice work, you just whipped up better photos in 10 minutes than I have in my collections.

just bought mk ii! I went down to B&H in Manhattan and tried both! Hands down mk II won! It is so much lighter and the auto focus is fast! I am so excited for it to be shipped to me! Thank you for this review.

My new 70-200 MKII weights 1.260gr. Without caps, lens hood and tripod mount itˋs 1.050gr.

That shot at 17:20 is actually insane with the water reflection in the bokeh!!

[cindyrosen]

Another great episode! Really love when you explain your settings. It’s so helpful!

Imagine being Orange Car Guy and discovering that Pierre has been stalking you all day

Sony is killing it. Superb lens, and superb A1. Together….beast mode 😈

[bikecommuter]

that is an awesome lens I was watching Miguel Quiles on Alpha Universe and he said something to the effect that cameras and lenses are so advanced now they are waiting for the photographer to take the shot. I also liked how he said he can spend more time on the creative side rather than working on the technical side.
