6 months of Kent weddings & London events with the Samyang 35-150mm L mount

In this video I showcase some of my favourite shots from the last 6 months using the Samyang 35-150mm telephoto lens on my Panasonic Lumix S5II.

I’ve used it for a series of London event photographer gigs in January - Feb 2025 as well as Kent wedding photographer bookings in both December 2024 and Feb 2025.

It’s a great versatile lens, capable of bokeh across the focal range, but should you swap it for your prime lenses? Let’s find out.

I’ll also be creating a follow-up video to this on how it has performed for studio portraits, so be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel to see that also!

Before I go, I would like to mention that continuous focus tracks very well on the Panasonic Lumix S5II, something I was concerned about when testing briefly last year at the Camera World event. I forgot to touch on this in the video. Tested in both well-lit and low-lit environments, with and without an on-camera speedlight.
