What is your go to lens & why?!
rn a simple 50mm 1.8 but i do like using the 70-200 when i have access to it!
35mm zeiss
@@Cameronbecht its a fun lens! but love the 50 as well!
@@najeebbadalandabad8351 ohhh bbabbyyyy!!!!
I use a 10-18mm efs lens for recording video of myself. I don't know if I should be using something else though.
he is the first person to ever mention what us crop sensor users would need to get for these focal lengths
He didn’t mention the last one... 70-200mm 2.8
@@carlarodriguez5267 prob because thats kind of a personal choice u can do a few things alot of people end up going with the 70-200 still, you can also go with the sigma i believe its a 50-100 1.8 is probably the closest match 1.8 = about a 2.8 ff equivelant but u get less reach and depending ond price and what ur planning to shoot there are other options basically a telephoto.(the sigma listed above would probably be great for portrait, wedding, event, but for something like wildlife you will prob wqnt something with more reach. Hope that helps.
He's the first person to make a video without 5 minute intro. What a legend!
He got the 35mm lens conversion wrong. 35mm full frame = 52.5mm crop sensor.
I like this comment
these are my 3 lenses i would recconend before watching the Video
1. 50mm f1.8
2. 24-70mm f2.8
3. 70-200mm f2.8
50mm and 85mm are good for portraits
Accurate if you have a full frame. It'll work for crop sensor's too I guess, but I have the 50mm f1.8 and the 17-55mm 2.8 designed for crop sensors. I have a garbage telephoto too, but the other 2 are amazing for my Canon SL2.
Benjamin DeLaughter yes you are right. I shoot on a nikon d7200 with a crop sensor. I actually use the 35mm f1.8 and the 17-50 f 2.8.
My exact lineup, I just added a 10-20mm wide and a 35mm but these 3 lenses will get the job done.
THANK YOU XD
It very much depends on what type of photography someone does. For me I do landscape and wildlife, especially birds. So I have 4 lenses which covers me from 10mm right up to 600mm, as I am using a crop sensor camera it is actually 15mm right through to 900mm ff equivalent. My lenses are 10-20mm, 18-55mm 70-300mm and 150-600mm. The first two lenses are great for landscape, while the other two zooms are great for wildlife. But I sometimes use the zooms for landscape when I only want to catch just part of a scene, as I can bring the viewers attention to one part rather that the whole thing. The 70-300 is great for wide open landscape to capture parts of it or for wildlife especially larger animals even at quite a distance, so a very versatile lens that can cover many situations. The 150-600 is my go to wildlife lens, especially for small birds and animals that are considerable distances away. But I sometimes use it for landscape, such as capturing part of a mountain peak or a valley, allowing me to really bring in just part of the scene but in great detail. With those 4 lenses I really can capture anything whether it be really close up or a long way away. While the 150-600mm lens is a monster of a lens I usually use that the most as 70% of my photography is wildlife, but I carry all 4 lenses with me most of the time. You never know what you might come across and may need to change lenses.
This was extremely helpful for me. I'm pretty amateur and learning my way around the specifics in photography so thank you.
Your channel’s intro!! Hands down!! 🙌One of the best intros I have seen in such a long time!!
Just got into photgraphy and love learning about it. I just found your videos and the way you teach is really easy to follow. Thank you.
Started as a hobby. Always learn something with your videos. Thanks
The kind of lens you need depends on what you want to shoot. Period. So you might need some very compact and lightweight stuff for street photography like a pancake lens, an even faster zoom lens for sports or a big aperture prime lens for night shootings or a fast prime lens of middle zoom range for portraits. Wildlife photographers might look out for gear that is waterproof. Astronomers will reach out for reflecting telescopes. Divers also need different gear and for some a GoPro style video camera is the thing they need. But I agree that most cases are covered with your choice. On the other hand, you might involve the help of a camera dealer to give you a recommendation and you can try some lenses to find what suits best. Working with your gear enables you to see the limitations of each lens and with more experience you might know better what choice you want to make.
You are by far the only Photographer who speaks my language. You made so much sense. Every word you said, in this video is exactly what I been trying to comprehend. A million Thank you!!!!!
Great advice Sawyer. I have all those ranges covered. In addition, I use a Sigma 10-20mm f3.5 Wide Angle Lens which is great for landscapes. In addition, I use a Canon 24mm f2.8 STM 'Pancake' Lens which is a great 'walk around' lens for Canon Crop Sensor Cameras.
Dude ! I love your videos man ! Thank you for all knowledge !
I know everyone raves about and declares that a 24-70mm f2.8 is a must, but I’m super happy with my 24-105mm f4. Yes you lose some benefits of a wider aperture, but the Sony version has great appearing bokeh and I find myself ok with what it lacks vs what I gain with that little bit of extra reach, which is something I’m always frustrated with when using a 24-70. And when you’re zoomed in to like 70mm and higher for portraits and other subjects, that blown out background looks just as good as most other lenses! All in all, I like their versatility of the 24-105 and find ways to compensate for what it lacks.
Also, I’ve found like like 50mm > 35mm all day! Great video though, mahalo!
Here are some ideas for EF full frame:
A.
24-70mm 2.8L II (general purpose, very sharp)
85mm 1.2L II (great for portraits)
100-400mm 4.5-5.6L IS II (macro, subject isolation at 400mm, great reach)
B.
24-35mm 2.0 Art (very sharp, fast at 2.0)
50mm 1.2L (very artistic)
70-200mm 2.8L IS III (good for portraits, good reach, some macro, very sharp)
C.
16-35mm 2.8L III (ultra wide for vlogging, artistic, stars)
24-70mm 2.8L II (general purpose, very sharp)
70-200mm 2.8L IS III (good for portraits, good reach, some macro, very sharp)
D.
24mm 1.4L II (group portraits, wide look, very sharp)
50mm 1.2L (very artistic)
135mm 2.0L (fantastic for portraits, very sharp, reach)
In any case would always pick a high megapixel full frame camera, switchable to a APS-C crop mode with at least 10 megapixels, for additional flexibility.
You are appreciated!
i want to buy 55-250 mm lens is it good for begginer as telephoto lens? i am from indonesia i think the 70-200 mm is too expensive for me like the price is as expensive as my camera ( canon 250d)
A year(ish) ago I bought the Canon 70-200 2.8 Mk III. I have since scarcely removed it from my camera. I am constantly amazed at the razor sharp quality of the images it produces and the versatility of it. I LOVE this lens so very much and use it for almost everything. It is truly a workhorse of a lens!
I"ve had the Mk I for a decade or so and it's awesome. I've also got the 2x teleconverter that works pretty well. I use it more than all my other lenses combined, but with the 24-105mm f4L I've got on order, that may change.
The main issue I had with it initially was the way that it stood out.
I wish you had put a link to each of the lens in the description. Great videos each and every time
Thanks, bro! I'm totally new to all this. You video explains things in simple details: clear, precise, and understandable without being overly too technical. Subscribed. Thumbs up!

Cropped 22mm lens to use with nikon? Any recommendation?
Thanks so much. Now i don't have to watch the video! Lol. I have these 3 lenses already.
interesting.. I only have these three
what if youre using a MFT then whats the equivalent?
@@simplydusty330 17mm f/1.8 or f/1.2 (both from Olympus) for the 35mm
12-35mm f/2.8 (panasonic) or 12-40mm f/2.8 (Oly) for the 24-70mm
35-100mm f/2.8 (pana) or better 40-150mm f/2.8 (Oly) for the 70-200mm
Whats in my bag is the budget versions: == >
24mm 2.8 STM Pancake / 50MM 1.8 STM / 17-55mm 2.8 IS USM / 55-250mm STM . I actually owned a 70-200 F4 IS L, but the 55-250 kicked its arse in sharpness (seriously), so I sold it. The 70-200 2.8 is a BEAST of a lens! Definitely not travel friendly! Borrowed one from a buddy of mine. OMG! I renewed my gym membership after using it reminded me that I had no upper body strength!
Just actually got a Canon 5D MK3 with a 50mm f.1.8 , i went from a Fujifilm x100F to a classic full format Canon :D
Thank you so much for the tip about the equivalent of these lens to crop sensor. I really do appreciate your share of knowledge!
Great video. Totally agree with your focal length choices and reason.
Mine got to be the 16-35 f2.8, 24-105 f4 is my in my bag in case I need more reach. Though I am contemplating getting the 70-200 range for awhile now.
Lenses for every photographer, even beginners, the lenses you advised are indeed excellent.
We have to consider lenses as a long term investment, but for someone starting out this is way over the top.
Canon lenses to consider (in my humble opinion) FF equivalents:
Canon primes
the nifty 50 from Canon for the price an excellent lens. The lens that was given for free when you bought a SLR in the past century.
(Canon 85mm f/1.8 EF a great lens for portraits and lower light situations.)
Canon 35mm f/2.0 IS USM less expensive than the Sigma, you loose a stop and you have IS, the Sigma 35mm Art is a faster lens but AF can be quirky on some Canon bodies.
zoom lenses
The 24-70mm f/2.8 is expensive,. An essential lens for event photography, even for landscape.
The 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS arguably one of the best lenses around, the latest incarnation costs around 2300€... If you are more into landscape than events i would suggest the f/4.0 version, less bockehlissious but roughly 1/3thd of the weight, for landscape and even events f/4.0 is sufficient and for weddings you have the bride and groom into focus...For landscape you will stop down to f/8.0- f/11, so what is the point of carrying a 1.6kg beast.
You can use third party zooms like e.g. Tamron but CaNikon lenses hold their value more. In the case you want to quit it is less painful...
With Regards
GREAT video!!! The pictures in the video are AMAZING!!! Keep doing you!!!
the sigma 24-70 F2.8 ,tamron 90mm macro, 50mm F1.8, at the end of the year i bu the canon 70-300L.
i love this.
Bought a Sony A7iii last year and got the 24-105 f4 for my every day walk around lens. It’s great for the travel and landscape photos that I shoot. Late last year I picked up the 16-35 f2.8 which I’m loving for landscape and some neat street shots. Next up, instead of the 70-200, will be the 100-400 for some wildlife and compressed landscape shots. Also looking at the 90mm macro for portrait and macro. That should give me complete versatility and leave me broke but still married😄.
Bruce Wiebe I have an iPhone 7 Plus for everything- photography and videos! No need to go so far for me !! But I live Sony 7iii, too!!
Yea, I love that combination
my to go lens is a 50 mm 1.8: much sharper than the sharpest zoom lens, much lighter, much nicer blurry background, much more light at night, much less flare when shooting sunsets, etc.
Just zoom with your feet; just shoot landscapes with panorama merging.
I got rid of all my excessive gear; I lost a lot of money when selling second hand,; but I got a lot of money left to spend on traveling
Traveling so light: a completely new photography feeling: one camera, one lens, no lens changing, no dust on the sensor,
Back to basics ... real Zen photography
And; ... shooting with a 50 mm: your photos always look right
Also like 800$ cheaper than a 24-70
Yes I find I tend to like just grabbing one lens for the day and using it. I also only use f4 zooms cause they are smaller and lighter. I love putting on an old legacy lens like an old 35 or 50 1.4 and just shooting everything in sight. Def like going light over having every focal length in my bag.
My lens lineup - 16-35 covers the 35mm range w/ wide angle shots (no need for go pro). 85 1.8 portrait and b-roll. 70-200 f4 for landscape zoom.
I ADORE my prime lenses! 30mm, 50mm, and 85mm. Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Well, 3 lenses 4300$
Edit: let's ask for a mortgage
If you get the f4 variants of these lenses than it comes out way cheaper. I got a 70-200 f4 IS for $400. The extra stop of light isn’t needed really and the out of focus background is still amazing and the lens is super sharp.
You can also save more by buying the Tamron or Sigma versions of the lenses, they still do a fantastic job
Id watch out for some of the older sigmas i had a 150-500 sigma it had worse iq than my kit telephoto lens the new art, contemporary and sport lenses are all great choices though. Dont know about the tamron they do also have some decent lenses
@@jessepenner8262 I have the tamron 100-400 and my grandad has the 700-300 newest version and they both produce incredible quality for us
Adrián Haz Peter C I had an f/4 and hated the crap out of it! Couldn’t wait to sell it, but everyone is different 🤷🏽♀️
I have a Canon camera, but purchased a Tamron 24-70 2.8 ... man that thing is a beast! It’s way cheaper than Canon’s 24-70
I got me the 24-105mm - most people call it a kit lens but honestly I use it way more than anything. Just so handy
Noealz Photo completely agree I have the Sony 24-105 f4 and it’s a beast. Not to mention it’s $1000 cheaper than the 24-70 2.8
my 35mm sigma prime is my favorite ..the bokah is incredible , insanely crisp
Great video! Thanks for the help
LOL - I thought you were going to say the 3 zooms. Good for you going a different path. My first lens for my Sony A7 was the 35 1.4. It's a great focal length. I know people like the nifty 50 and there is nothing wrong with it, the 35 just worked for me as a single lens. Now that I have the 16-35, I sold the 35 prime and got the 85 1.2.
I agree the 70-200 2.8 is another versatile lens. I know many people recommend the F4 version, especially for landscape. It's a lot lighter to carry. But the 2.8 just allows you to use it in more situations.
Everyone is different. I love my 75mm equivalent. I guess having some zooms and complementing it with one prime that best suits your individual preference (be it 35, 50 or 75) is the way to go.
That was very helpful! Thank you! The appearance of this in my suggested videos was nearly perfectly timed. I'm currently in a position of being able to upgrade my Canon Rebel T3i kit lenses. I've already purchased a 50mm prime f1.8 though. I received it yesterday. I might've chosen differently if I had seen this video last week.
Have you used the 50mm lens?
50mm 1.8 is amazing and recommended
Outstanding advice. Thank you
Literally just bought roughly the same equivalent of used lenses for my used Sony Alpha77 I just picked up yesterday. Got a great deal $500 for 3 lenses, the body, a bag, and extra batteries. Not bad for my first real camera. Glad now after watching this video that I got so lucky to have gotten the 3 basic lenses needed. Ready to shoot anything! It came with 50 F1.8, 18-70 F3.5-5.6, 75-300 F4.5-5.6
nifty fifty
Canon 50mm f1.8 - 120 EUR, can't beat that even if it's cropped... move back a bit and it's all fine ;) Have a good one
It's a PERFECT lens on cropped sensors for portraits because it becomes about an 85mm and with the 1.8 the backgrounds stay nice and blurry!
@@ZheoVerticies Yeah 50mm is awesome but if i want less cropped images, what lense should i go for?
@@remsangakc7239 30-35mm you need for a cropped that turns to 50mm
@@remsangakc7239 Get a 22mm Like Sawyer said itll be more like a 35mm on a cropped sensor and 35 is a solid wider focal length
Mario Subasic Media Thank you for the suggestion!!! I JUST ordered one about two minutes ago! I was contemplating over it over the past few days and I could't get your comment out of my head. I can't wait to see what kind of pictures I get from it! I've wanted the Sigma 18-35mm f1.8 (uhhhmmm gorgeous blurred background anyone?) but it is not really in my budget, so hopefully I can get something similar from this lens!
My Canon ef 24-105 mmL f4 use it for everything. And my 100mm L macro f2.8
My 17-40mm L
And my 70-200 mm L f4. The backgrounds are very blurry .
By the way the f2.8 is sooo ecpencive.
I am working as a pro so I do choose the lenses for me and my clients are very happy with the results.
I am a landscape and nature photograoher. I get the results I want. With the f4 lenses I have. Not everyone needs an f2.8 lens. And not everyone is as rich as you are. Good lenses thou.
F4 does the jobb just as well as the f2.8. Only a nicer price.
I appreciate the way you explain things.
I think you pretty much nailed it for lense selection for what the average photographer needs
Can’t forget about the 85mm f1.2 L that is a beautiful lens
I think 1.2L is too much, sometimes can blur things that you need. It’s so expensive and heavy.
Canon lenses 16-35mm f4 (because of is), 50mm f1.4 and 70-200mm f2.8. That’s my favourite setup
The same for me. 16-35 f4 IS (wonderfull lens!)+ 70 200 2,8 IS and the Sigma art 50
Thanks Sawyer. Pretty good information!
Current set up I love canon
24mm f1.4L II
50mm f 1.4
24-70mm f2.8 L
70-200mm f2.8L
Wide angles are crisp on the 24mm and night shots dance shots with a bounce are awesome.
50 portraits feet waist up are awesome
24-70mm save you time and can get every shot if everything is more faster pace and don’t have to worry if in tight areas.
70-200mm is nice to be farther away some people don’t like cameras being close to them and for portraits you would be very surprised. Also for ta ceremony darker light the 2.8 factor makes it with ease and sometime people don’t want you so close during certain moments.
I appreciate that you include focal lengths for APS-C bodies, as a lot of us still shoot with those - thank you!
Ok so why not go get the len s that are made for the crop sensor
@@scallen3841 I'm not sure what you're saying - I *appreciate* that he calls out the focal lengths with APS-C crop in mind so that we *can* get the comparable focal lengths.
@@rewdotkim Do you use and own a camera ?
@@scallen3841 yes.
@@rewdotkim Lol it's cool use what lens you want , you do you . Just because it's said on the the tube doesn't make it the gospel or written in stone .
I don’t need a 35 when I have a Tamron 24-70 2.8. It is a great lens for landscapes as well. I also have a Canon 50 1.8, Canon 70-200 2.8 is ll, Canon 85 1.8 and a Canon 100 2.8 macro with a 5D Mark IV. Took me years to get all of this (separately) because I’m poor and my husband hates me 🤷🏽♀️
Your husband is wrong ... well, always wrong, except this time : with the 50 1.8 you could do 90 percent of your photography; all the reest for 10 percent ?????
I'll be your husband and appreciate your camera gear and make sweet love to you very often.
Will your mama let you move out of her basement ?
@@fredericeeckman3002 If I poop, will you wipe me?
Great video! Thank you
This video helped me so much, thank you so much.
I checked this video out to compare notes. As it turns out, my top 3 lenses (I shoot with a 7D; a 1.6x crop) are a 17-50 f/2.8 (27-80 equivalent); a 30mm f/1.4, and a 70-200 f/2.8.
The reason I chose those particular lenses was for shooting fighting- boxing, kickboxing and MMA.
The only other lens I currently own is a 28-300, just for personal projects that don't require a lot of precision or require me to carry extra lenses.
Just wanted to remind you guys that renting an exceptional lens like the 70-200 f/2.8 is a great option for events or weddings.
What about the f4.0 variant?
@@mraacht For weddings inside it's a bit to dark.
@@rrrrrx3503 thanks
Thank you for this!😊
Thank you for this video! I certainly appreciate an easy explanation of some kind of confusing stuff for the beginner DSLR user. Phones, GoPros, Drones, and gimbals have been my only experience so far. I have a decent DSLR but It's time to put it to good use with an investment in some decent lenses!
Got 16-35, 24-70 and the 70-200 all 2.8. 2 where bought 2nd hand and 1 was reduced due to shop use it had been a demo hobby.
instead of 16-35, the 8-15 is better, especially if you already have the 24-70
I just came from your live stream on instagram and wanted to say I’ve been watching your video for 7years now and so happy that your channel is growing I remember you having less than 5K subscribers and now nearly 2mill! 💛💛 so yeah i feel like a proud sister from Saudi Arabia 😂💛
Holy crap that was a long time ago!
Love it bro!!
Thanks !! This video really help me out .
i would consider also the 85 1.2.
Definitely think a 16-35mm is a necessity.
Yea def 16-35! Specially if you live in the city and take any architecture photography. You need the space that 16mm gives you.
i second that
@@adibmajid9886 I 2nd your 2nd :)
Love the video man as always :)
Depends on what you need and what pictures you take. I use a 60mm F2.8D Nikkor macro lens predominately. For normal zoom lens I use a Nikkor 35-70 f2.8D. The last is a nifty fifty fast lens like a Nikkor 50mm f1.4G. But, like I said, it depends on what you are doing as not everyone is doing portraits. I mainly take product photos so my needs are different.
Got a16-35mm f4, 55mm 1.8f and 85mm 1.8f - covers everything I need
A7 shooter?
@@callumray4601 got me ;D
That Sonnar 55mm 👌
Just got that 85 1.8. Best deal on Sony ever.
I went for the 24-70 2.8 - 50 1.2 - 70-200 2.8
Major help, thanks!
I use a budget version of 3 lenses, which has worked out very well as a 'hobbyist'. All Canon, on APS-C body.
1. General purpose: 24-70mm 4.0. Still amazing shots, with a fraction the pricetag of the 2.8. + I own a different 2.8 which I'll mention later. Does the job for landscapes and portraits and everything in between.
2. Landscape: 10-22mm. Super wide angle for landscapes, especially sunsets. Cheap, versatile wide angle.
3. Action/Portraits/Events: 70-200mm 2.8. Saved up for this one, but with the recent release of the version III, got a good price second-hand. About 800USD. This is the go-to lens of the pros and for good reason. Detail and sharpness is incredible. AF is silent and instant. Waited 5 years to find this lens at a decent price, and jumped on it as soon as I could.
Those 3 got me covered for pretty much any focal length, excluding perhaps wildlife photography where 400+mm would be the standard. But that's WAY beyond my pay grade. The 70-200 does a serviceable job for my needs in that area.
Nice advice! ... though I'll probably ignore the f2.8 part ;)
Goodman 4525 yeah cause those are f-ing tanks and cost about the same as a tank as well. I have all f4 zooms.
24-105 F4, the added compression at 105mm gives you similar results as the 24-70 F2.8. (tried both, the difference is less than the price, for sure). F4 is not such a big challenge anymore, with the wonderful ISO performance these days.
I'm kind of curious why folks go 24-70mm on these lists rather than 24-105mm. Sure, it isn't quite as wide, but it is wide enough and doesn't necessitate swapping lenses at 70mm as often.
i was going to give you some crap about that hair you have but out of the first 5 videos i watched about lenses you where the only person to teach me something that actually made sense thanks a bunch will definitely subscribe.
Great video, really helpful. Thank you
No mention of the 85mm 1.4??
My lenses are the 70-200mm 2.8 and the 85mm 1.4. My next lens will be the 50mm 1.4.
Will guess before having watched the video. 16-35, 24-70 & 70-200?
Thank you for this video
Great video-thank you very much!!!
The Canon 100mm Macro lens is by far the sharpest lens I’ve seen and my favorite lens to use for portraits and traveling photography
I have that in my setup and it's excellent for product and portrait photography
The older 180L has a better resolution, also the 135 TS-E. The MTF charts showing this as well. Try them if you want a more sharp lens.
Theres a million of these videos and this is the only honest one, thanks for being class
I loved the video thanks so much, and I'll be sure to get those lens
Love your work!!
Appreciate it Kev!!!!
Great Video. I do have on question. I thinking to buy the Sigma 24mm f1.4 and because I have an Apsc Camera (sonya6300) it should be equal to 35mm right ? What do you think of this combo ?
İt equals 36 mils and i think its really good though ı would recommend xt20 instead of 6300
from instagram live my dude💛
THanks for coming over Logan!!!
Great video. Completely agree. I use a 35mm L prime and looking to get the 70-200 L 2.8 again.
I LOVE that last pic you showed of the 2 guys on a rock with a red wash and smoke...can you do a video and break down that photo, and maybe a few others that are super creative?? Also, CONGRATS ON HAWAII!
i have the 24-70, 35 F1.4 but a 135F2. i prefer the faster lens as compare to 70-200 F2.8
and i dont mind walking abit to compose...
Lenses are the same thing as calliber in rifels...u need em all :DD
Very helpful and to the point!
What you need depends on what you shoot. I owned the 24-70 as well as the 70-200 and traded them into 85 1.2 and 200 1.8. That´s what I need more, and what makes MY pictures looking better. But most times I use the 400 2.8 or 600 4.0. Using the above mentioned average basic zoom lenses will only produce average (professional) pictures. But for the beginner a good point to start. But the 70-200 needs an extender.
What is the alternative of 70-200 mm for crop sensor camera?
Try the Sigma 50 - 100mm f1.8 it's an apsc lens n the closest you'll get to a true 70 - 200 in terms of quality. The only thing is you'll be a little short at the long end at a fullframe equivalent of around 160mm.
Or even the Sony 70-350mm
Two minutes 25 seconds before he gets to the point!
sorry brah long winded
@@sawyerhartman I thought you covered it nicely
great list . thank you!
if you are shooting on the canon eos R you can pick up their RF 35 mm which also doubles as a macro! Amazing work as usual. Love your videos very informative
Keep in mind though that a macro that short is going to have terrible working distance. Generally speaking the longer the focal length of the macro lens, the more working distance and the less likely you are to scare off insects or have to worry about the camera blocking the light.
So, for many things, that may be fine, just realize that for some other cases, it'll suck.
it would be nice to know why you choose the 35mm vs a 50mm? @sawyerhartman
Yeah I'm wondering about that
tattooedyogi cause its inbetween 24 and 50
@@HuyRebel so what's the purpose???

Good job! Very informative.

You have great hair. Mine waved goodbye years ago. I might be a little bit jealous.
I’m now going to go and have an awesome day. Thanks.
Are used lenses a good idea to buy to save some money?
Yes! Make sure you try it out on your camera first! Some lenses can have defects like scratches, mechanical issues, or mold which will affect your photos so make sure that it doesn't have any of that and you should be good!
@@justinwahl1161 Ok, thank you
awesome. great video!
I simply like everything you said. Sooo cool 😎
5:25 "Instead of carrying a superwide for landscapes use your phone / GoPro". LMAO
almost stopped the video right there...
Holly cow lol he didn't just say that did he. "Rewinds" oh he did
Yeah he must not do landscapes I mean seriously that’s ridiculous. Yeah I’m gonna do landscapes with a go pro. Lose that 24-70 and get a 16-35 for landscapes. Thank me later.
Excuse me, but nothing beat the power of a 10-18mm lens for landascapes.
I think a 24mm, 50mm, 70-200mm will give you a better 3 lens bundle
yeah but then you dont have a walk around or safety lens! Alot of times you just need to shoot everything that could come up for clients! This is an easy way to not always be switching lens
@@sawyerhartman Hi,what about 16-35mm
Dope video!!!
