Christoph sent me this:
“Justin Biebers music video “I’ll show you” was shot with a Sony A7 series camera.
Even if I’m not the biggest Justin Bieber fan… as the video was filmed in Iceland there are some beautiful landscape shots.
some making of shots:

And Zeiss Artisan Greg Waterman is on a full US tour with the Struts, shooting the music video for “Kiss This” with a Sony a7S2 and the Zeiss Batis lenses. They’re in NYC next week at Seth Meyers, and they’re the opening band for Motley Crüe’s last concert ever, on New Year’s Eve in Los Angeles.
Greg Waterman also shot the album cover of the Grammy nominatied Pitbull group. The cover image has been shot on the A7R and Otus 55 (Source: Instagram).

I think that is one of the worst endorsements for sony….
“Pitbull” sucks. Stupid Cuban midget
Yep. And as he defended illegal immigration at a concert around the time of Trump announcing his run for President., he went on to say “hey, trump-you better watch out for El Chapo, Papo” (in reference to El Chapo/Trump “feud”), to which the predominantly Mexican crowd went wild. Uh, Pitbull, this is WHY we don’t want a bunch of illegals running around America. We shouldn’t have to fear retaliation by the Mexican cartel every time we speak out against illegal immigration. Fck Pitbull.
Ugh. That is a perfect reason NOT to use the camera. Blergh.
I have been holding off until now to purchase an A7. With this new found information, I feel that there is no other choice but to move forward. I mean this is what I needed to know to confirm my decision. Before purchasing a lens, however, I will need to know what they’re using to capture Justin Bieber so that I know which one to get.
blegh, hurts to see the marvelous nation of iceland being milked once again. it’s become hollywood’s playground. now the incarnation of shallow consumerism wants his slice too, naturally. glad to have had my own month-long walkabout in 2012 alongside my trusty ol’ nex-5n. fundamental and life altering experience. the feels are still fresh… wish corporate turds would leave it alone.
I agree. Photographically, it’s the most over-exposed place on Earth. Buy expensive camera and $10,000 worth of lenses, fly to Iceland, drive around taking photos of glaciers, coastlines and bleak terrain, and come home a Pro. It’s obviously a beautiful place and maybe I’ll visit it someday, but enough with the black-and-whites of ice and ash.
Great to see Sony being used in the mainstream. Was able to get some Pitbull shots at a recent Skyball event in Dallas using my Sony A7RII and Sony 70-200. Here’s a link if you’d like to check them out. Performed great in low-light: http://goo.gl/UQxcBM
Nice shots. The black and whites of just pit bull in particular. There are a few good shots with the dancers too–the ones with a lot of motion are artfull.
Isn’t A7 assembled tightly enough to crack the human head?
The virus that is Justin Bieber has finally spread to SonyAlpharumors. No escape from this disease.
It’s terrifying. The Biebelator T1000 has arrived.
Says nothing whatsoever about the camera …. but what a great lens not to have broken upon sight of these two 🙂
Rory Kramer. Skills. Respect.
I was lucky this year to photograph Mr. Pitbull in a very private event in Miami and it was done with a Sony A77II. Great guy!
I salute you sir!
The final result video is impressive, breathtaking landscapes exhibiting detail and natural colors all beautifully integrated and produced. The artist and music is not to my taste but the video is very well done. The videographer’s choice of photographic tools was well thought out and does his art justice.
I congratulate the photographers that get these kind of jobs. They can be very good for someone’s career. However, I think this post reflects more about who the photographers are with.
I mean, if I shoot Philip Glass or Günter Grass tomorrow do I get to be featured here as well?
I’m a Belieber in Sony cameras.
I wish I could like this twice. Hilarious
I cant wait for my limited edition Justin Beiber a6000, dipped in gold lizardskin similar to the attached pentax
I fell off my chair after I saw this.
