I love all your shots, just one question. Do you handhold all your shots? Ive had this lens a fair while now but sometimes find I get a little blur in shots. Im considering taking this lens along with my 17-40L overseas as a travel kit, wondering if lack of IS will be an issue

Watch your shutter speeds when handholding the 135...being a telephoto lens, it will exaggerate camera shake. Try to keep shutter speed at 1/250 or more, which can be a challenge depending on your light. In the images quoted, EXIF shows even faster than 1/250, 1/1000 and faster. That is one great thing about IBIS in the Sony...when setup for the 135, I can handhold down to 1/80 and still get sharp images.

All of these shots you're seeing are definitely hand held. We always shoot wide open, and try to make sure the lighting is adequate enough to be above 1/200 ss. We'll bump the ISO if we have to, but normally stay around 100-200 iso on our 5DIII. Only on occasion will we dip below 1/200, and even then it's only 1/160. Anything lower it really becomes an issue.

I rarely comment on pictures, but this picture is out of the ordinary!! Amazing work

Wish I had more than 135 to work with

Thank you so much

My nine year old grand daughter, very little done to these apart from turning mono and a slight crop

Thank you, I don't have but it's just me, the couple, the magical 135L and natural light a few minutes after the sunset

From my weekend trip to Yosemite national park
