I have no interest, but yet, its interesting
I really wish we could get more photo and video gear related content on this and LTT channels.
I feel like they must be teetering on the opportunity to start a dedicated channel, and I am totally for it. Brandon is great, I wouldn't even be watching this or liking it if not for the presentation value, but I think that this really needs it's own area.
Yeah honestly Ive never been into photography or anything but this was really interesting

“First lens” - costs 1500 dollars
It's pretty true if you're a new photographer trying to break into the industry. Though if you're a hobbyist with a mirrorless camera, I'd suggest picking up a $10 lens adapter and a $20 Konica lens from the 70s.

Im still using my canon 250.. that thing is 3x my dslr
he was referring to the focal length. Most begginers, when looking to buy a new lense, either buy a 35mm or 50mm. Those are two versatile focal lengths that you can use for pretty much anything and you can tend to find decent budget options
starting photographers will do just fine with 100usd 35mm / 50mm lens

The f/1 doesn't matter IMO since it's an APS-C lens. It's roughly equivalent to a 1.4 FF lens, which are abundent.
And 50mm is a very annoying inbetween focal length on crop.
@@RDMracer imo 50 on crop basically does what 85 does on FF
@@Hulluboju it does matter, because it lets in twice as much light as an F1.4 lens
and it is also not a matter of opinion. It is a fact of physics
@@MsIrrealis it lets in twice the intensity of light, but on a smaller area. Which makes it less impressive.
@@Hulluboju depends on what you consider impressive i guess. To me an f1.0 lens is impressive
idk about y'all but when I think of "first lens" i think "used canon 50mm f1.8" and not "$1500 fuji 50mm f1"
YES . This is let them eat cake amount of absurdity
Who starts with a prime lens as their first lens? I started with the 18-55 kit lens.
@@nout4269 people who are broke but still want a shallow depth of shield
@@churro2935 Yeah I guess that's a valid reason .. though I just zoomed in at 55mm and backtracked to get teh precious bokeh
@@nout4269 The Fuji 18-55 is actually a solid zoom, my favourite kit lens by far. The F2.8 on the short end is pretty useful and it holds low apertures until pretty far through the range.
But my first lens was a prime because it was during the film era, and all zooms were pants unless you spent a horrendous amount of money (and even then...). Before the digital 18-55 became the defacto, the 50mm 1.8 was pretty much the lens everyone started with.
Yes! As a fellow Fuji shooter, thank you for doing a video on an XF lens. While I don't shoot with anything longer than 35mm (50mm full frame equivalent), the 50mm F1.0 is very... very... tempting.
As a Fujifilm user, we need more content like this!

Misses focus
Brandon: "Yep, as I expected, it is super soft."
His hair a few cm in front of his eyes was sharp..
To be fair, you're going to be missing focus A LOT with a F1 manual focus lens.
@@zagohcap Yeah, and he could have just as easily have said ease of use was a massive difference (I guess he did at other points) and I'm guessing it's not as sharp even when it is in focus.
Just wish he had it right on they eye before comparing them
To be fair, the hair was also soft - only slightly sharper than the eyes. Plus since he was focusing with a magnified view he would have seen that it just wasn't sharp as he went back and forth trying to acquire focus on the eye which he rightly said.
Then again it's a 40+ old beautiful lens so nothing much to criticize about it.
A lot of people confused about Crop Factor. 50mm on APS-C give you a comparable FOV as a 75mm on FF. Depth of Field also needs to be converted so your DOF is comparable to F/1.5 FF. However when it comes to light gathering and exposure, the lens is a true F/1. That means that at any given ISO you will be able to shoot faster shutter speeds than your usual F/1.4 FF glass.
When it comes to image quality, it is true that APS-C sensors on average produce 1 more stop of total noise (or twice as much noise) than FF at any given ISO within the same technological generation. However having more noise DOES NOT effect your camera settings for exposure. STOP coupling Lens performance with Sensor Size. They are two different things, sensor sizes does not make a lens turn into a different lens.
None of this matters BTW. If you want good photos, having a larger sensor and low F-Stops don't matter. What matters most is lighting and composition. Taking a photo at base ISO at night at a Round Table Pizza using the house lights with a Medium Format Camera will still produce a terrible image because overhead florescent lighting is terrible. No gear in the world will save you from a terrible looking photo. I think most people should invest in off camera strobes and lighting equipment before investing in Lenses.
You know what would've helped with hearing the supposedly loud noise? Cutting the music and not talking for more than a fraction of a second. No idea what the bad noise is now...
petition for brandon to do more camera stuff :)
My jaw dropped when the Leica came out - super exciting. Nice comparison!
4:26, sounds like Predator from alien Movie 😂
Hahaha you right, you right!
I thought that too
"It just like really satisfying"
No its rather be uncomfortable🤣🤣🤣
"Fuji is sticking with APS-C."
Any GFX owner has left the chat.
which is why it doesn't make sense for fuji to go with FF when they already have a good medium format body
Haaaaa no shxt.
Fun times this video
@@fernank017 so.
I see you know my buddy Ken

Love love love this content. Give this Brandon his own channel. I really enjoy how he’s taking the time to go into the tech. This is a much much better video than the short 6min 3060ti on the main channel today. Please more (oh and pref a Nikon lineup lol!)

Linus has talked about it before, it goes along the lines of Linus believes in making sure his employees are happy with the tools they're working with, and that he trusts Brandon knows his stuff with Cinematography. On top of that he sees the camera/sound equipment as a vital investment for the production of LTT videos.
I’m American and I wished he used metric units.
Maybe include Metric measurements, I have no knowledge of Imperial units.
I think one pound is about 500gramms, could be wrong tho
just devide by 2 for weight (roughly)...but yeah, I agree. Especially that they are not living in US of Absurdistan 😎
Merican's can't handle the metric system xD
Divide lbs by 2.2. 1.77lbs approx 800g, 3lbs approx 1.35kg
@@HronosTv 1) im an american and even i prefer the metric system
2) Linus Media Groups is based in Canada, which is why im always confused when they use imperial instead of metric
please editor, add metric system layer :D or stop using pounds for weight completely
Any chance you could start using g/kg instead of lbs?
Shortcircuit: What makes this lens so good?
Me excited: I know!!! Is it the price 🤔😏!?
F/1 sounds amazing until you realize that with the crop factor it's basically a 75mm f/1.5 so it's slower than a full frame with an f/1.4 lens. Great optics are great, but if it was a full frame f/1 lens that would be really impressive. The reason the leica looks softer is because it's meant for use with a full frame sensor. With a crop sensor camera you're zooming in on the center of the lens, magnifying any defects. The leica can let in more than a full stop more on a full frame sensored camera thus the crazy high price.
The FOV is a 75mm and the DoF is converted to an F/1.5. But the exposure is at an F/1. So it's not "slower" than a full frame F/1.4 lens since the "speed" of an aperture has to do with exposure not DoF.
Now if you want to say that an APS-C has about 1-Stop more noise than FF at any given ISO, then that would be true. But that doesn't make the lens any less "slower" or any less impressive. This is a very impressive lens specs wise irregardless of sensor format.
Couple things for everyone - That’s a full frame equivalent 75mm lens not a 50mm because it’s on an APSC camera with a 1.5 crop. Also, it’s an f1 on APSC which means it’s the same as an f1.4 on full frame.
I love fuji cameras, I want to upgrade to an xt4 one of these days.
9:52 night and day difference in terms of sharpness.
Also the 50 f1.0 looks slightly sharper than the 5 f1.2 wide open.
I'm really impressed.
Great video.
That’s what Brandon said but I’m not sure I agree, just look at the eyebrows. The 56 is definitely sharper, or perhaps it grabbed focus in a different spot.
Would like if you could put metric values on screen when mentioning imperial values and vice versa

Hey Brandon, how about a series teaching us more about photography and videography? Genuine and sincere request from a regular viewer and I guess many other who watch your videos. Really love the camera stuff from you.
Nothing on chromatic aberration, focus breathing, lowlight performance (actual t-stops).... there is so much missing. Pretty disappointing video tbh.
Not a review more a first look
@@DroptheBassForJesusSake yes Linus said this a few times shortcircuit is not a review Chanel its a unboxing and first look Chanel
I got my first camera a couple months back with the kit (12-32) and a 35-100 lens. This guy keeps me interested
6:57 i'm curious as to why they were using butterfly/diffuse frame with approximately the same size as the octabox behind it...
Have you seen the lights they use, THEY HAVE ARRI LIGHTS
@@hurley2609 and?
The photo comparisons at the end of the video really helped me to understand the differences much better. Really great addition to the format.
F1 50mm on APS-C is equivalent to 75mm at 1.5. Not that impressive.
i totally agree
F1.5 in terms of DoF due to crop factor but still F1 for exposure purposes. Shooting an F1 will still yield faster shutter speeds at any given ISO than FF F1.4 glass.
Yes
Yeah, for DoF/Bokeh it's not impressive at all, cause it's a f1.5, but for Exposure it's a f1. And that my boy, no one have achieved with built-in autofocus yet, except for Fuji.
@@SeanWashPhoto i mean, a full frame camera has a (about) 1.5 times larger sensor, meaning about 1.5² times more light ... so this checks out as well as about an f1.5 lens
That doesn't make the lens any less impressive, it still physically is an f1.0 lens... WITH autofocus !

Awesome video, Brandon! (I'll have to re-watch in 4k) A little suggestion - it would be great if you had a small (stylistically standardized) tool-tip with imperial-metric conversion when you mention measurements such as weight
Honestly, I'll take the sharpness of the f/1.2 over a slightly lower aperture. Also, the Leica isn't worth the hype.
yeah! this seems very much like a cinema option
This is actually a full frame equivalent 75mm f1.5. You have to apply the crop factor (which is 1.5 because of APS-C) to the focal length und the aperture.
For dof, yes. But the lens is still an f1.0 lens

Love watching this man talk enthusiastically about this stuff. Please keep it up.
idk man but a 1500 dollar lens is NOT a "first lens". and its only apc? yikes
Hes talking about 50 mm focal distance not the specific lens
I just bought my first camera (canon m6 mk2) and I would honestly think the kit lens is the one that most people should start with. I could be wrong but I imagine that a zoom lens is much more beginner friendly for most people. Mine came with a 15-45mm and ill probably buy another zoom lens for distant shots before investing in a prime lens. Just an opinion from a complete noob so please correct me if I’m wrong.
Also, really not understanding the hate towards APSC.
@@lachlanh7911 zoom lenses are really good to start out. to learn camera stuff as well

Start using SI units please, you just delay the inevitable.
@Savage Poet aye buddy, as some who lives thousands of km from the nearest place that use imperial units. I have to say that you must be able to do that to distance and height (miles,feet, inches and yards) but other than that when it comes to ounces and pounds, I rarely ever use them thus doing it on the fly is almost impossible.
I mean they are cannadians their country is already pretty far into the swap, them using pounds is just to ponder to their US audience.

@@herranton along with a ton of other glass that fuji dosent offer. But if it has Canon on it, its gonna be pricy.
@@herranton yea, but the used canon ones are almost double the price of a new Fuji lens lol!
I mean, the 35mm and 50mm options for a first lens are usually aiming for full frame - on APS-C we're talking about 23mm and 35mm. The 50mm f/1 is equivalent to a 75mm f/1.5 while the 56mm is equivalent to ~85mm f/1.8. That's nothing you'd choose as a first lens unless you very much know you only want to do portraits. The additional weight is not really important for hiking or travelling - it's a portrait lens after all, you use it on location or in the studio. It might be a point if you'd need to carry it around all day though. The additional noise is imho not an issue during a wedding - there are more noises around you so whatever.
I found the 56mm f/1.2 slightly sharper actually - the focus point was set differently. Just compare the eyebrows.
Manually focussing an f/1 lens is ... a challenge. I would not want to do this with modern day cameras unless it's a Leica M with the rangefinder system. It would still be quie a challenge to nail the focus.
The actual advantage of the 50mm f/1 is the extra light for the focus system. The bokeh won't change much. I find the focal length to be quite odd though.
Personally, I rather stick with the 56mm because of the 85mm equivalency, significantly lower price and less weight. Overall for me it's the more sensible choice.
Brandon: "Wow can you guys hear that?"
Editor: "lemme just put some cool music over that"
Ok, I will say the comparison between a Leica lens designed for full frame and a Fuji lens designed for APS-C is a little apples to oranges. It's easier for a lens designed for a smaller image circle to garner lower F-numbers. In reality, the Fuji 50mm f/1.0 would be more comparable to a full-frame 75mm f/1.5 (in terms of AoV and DoF), which if you look at Sigma's 85mm f/1.4 ART lens, you can see the size and weight are closer in class.
I love watching videos of things u can never afford
Think broke, act broke, stay broke, my friend.
I switched from Fuji to go full frame (canon r5) and I miss my xt3 and Fuji colors so much
imo, the benefits of full frame aren't worth losing the feeling of holding a fuji, or the loss of fuji's beautiful color science
In between different systems I always find Fuji and Nikon raw files(except D800 and D4 which Nikon goofed up)gives me the most satisfying colour out of the bunch when shooting landscape, Canon always feels "too warm" for me in landscape but great for portraits, it's a personal taste thing though.

When people first get a camera, they look for a 35mm or 50mm full frame equivalent. However, Fuji X bodies have a 1.5x crop factor, so that 50mm lens has a 75mm FF equivalent. That said, its still a 50mm lens, and behaves like a 50mm lens (depth of field vs. f-stop, etc.).

Love videos with Brandon. He talks about tech that I’m interested in. Need more Brandon. And more cameras
Pls use grams/kg as well next time.

2.2 lb/kg, so 1.77 lb = 805g
I really appreciate how much you nerd out on cameras and lenses!
I'm not interested in photography so I'mma leave a like then head out.
ShortCricuit is like Unbox Therapy but less annoying
Leica looked a million times better.
I just picked up a very well used Nikon 200-400 f/4G VR ii. That 7.5 lb monstrosity makes every other lens (even my 70-200 f/2.8 VR ii) feel light in comparison. It's all about the perspective/comparison.
The Leica lens that you keep saying is "soft" if very sharp, you're just focused on his nose. The DOF at F/1 is significant enough that you lose focus from the nose to the eyes. Even at f 1.8 you can see the focus loose if your focus point is on the nose.
I remember when I had no idea what Brandon was talking about but I watched his videos anyway, because he delivered them so well.
Now I am able to keep up with just about everything he says and would love if LMG put him at the head of a camera channel.
That said, I don't share his passion for APS-C. Full frame is where the fun is at. An F1 loses all appeal when you realise it's not full frame.
I don't think a channel dominated by crop sensor content would appeal to most camera enthusiasts.
Brandon is one of the best hosts at LMG I really wish he would do more hosting on the main channel. I couldn't care less about cameras and camera equipment, but I always watch a video with him hosting because he seems to be able to describe and detail what he is thinking so clearly.
a) that aperture ring does sound lovely
b) doesn’t give a “50mm portrait look”. It’s a 75mm f/1.5 equivalent lens...and given the preponderance of 85 1.4 lenses, not actually all that special at the end of the day (except to Fuji users).
And also: The Leica Noctilux is a full frame lens, making the comparison a bit shaky.
It is special for apsc users.
And it does give a 50mm portrait look. This is an apsc lens. And it is a 50mm lens. So it is pretty much the definition of a "50mm portrait look" for apsc users
@@MsIrrealis he is pertaining to the viewing angle. the fuji f1.0 is practically a portrait lens.
As a guy who at my 2nd job ever, just after high school, ran a 1-hour photo department inside a drugstore: I heard APS and immediately went into fight or flight mode.
hmmm so its not really f1 then if its apsc
Love the quality of your reviews, Brandon and team. Not a Fuji guy, but damn that lens is lovely.
Guys, Construction noise is not a big deal when we watch videos... but if you do care enough, you could try to process the mic's audio with NVidia Broadcast, you've already review it and it can do magic for this
Brandon, you should get in DJI's Prototype Lidar System. it can pull focus without light! it can give manual lenses an Auto Focus and it's quick. stick the lika on with the lidar autofocus system amazing
As an owner of the XT-4 with the 56mm F1.2, this lens isn't worth the upgrade. If I didn't already own the 56mm I'd definitely be wanting to get the 50mm F1.0 for a prime lens in this focal length. Great video.
Nice video. Could you include metric units?
Brandon, please do more photography videos! Also, you could compare this lens to the Canon 50mm 0.95
Add the crop factor and the lens is a 75mm
