What camera lens is best for beginners? Hot take: It's the 35mm f/1.8, and if you're on Canon it's the Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 STM. In this video I spend the day shooting photos and a few video clips using nothing but the 35mm to show you why I believe it's one of the best lens for beginners!

0:00 Best Camera Lens for Beginners!
What do you think? Could you use this as your ONLY camera lens?
i’d prefer 13-105 as everyday lens
24 to 105 Sony…
24 70 Sigma Dgdn Art is a great sharp lens but it is too sharp for videography and no OSS.
Definitely I have found that OSS lens is required for a good days work.
50 would be photographers dream. Not as a videographer.
@@Flaremax Yeah, I also use the 24 - 105. Great versatile lens. I was just wondering does your 24-105 also seem to suck little bits of dirt and dust in it? I bought a used one for 300 that has a very tiny scratch on the front element and had a couple bits of dust in it but it seems to have sucked in a bit more dust.
24-70 GM II all day baby ✌🏻
70mm
2:19 - For my fellow Canon shooters - Canon’s APS-C is slightly smaller than Sony/Nikon so our conversion factor for focal length is 1.62 instead of 1.5, which makes the 50mm into an 81mm and the 35mm into a 57mm.
That's right! It will end up looking even more zoomed in! 👍 😝
@@AnthonyGugliotta It works for me with the R10 and RF 100-400 for aviation photography at Pearson, gives me effectively a 650mm lens - no extender required!
This shoot was so much fun! Excellent video and 35mm is the best 🙌
35mm is ✨BLESSED✨
I'm sure it was pointed out somewhere in the comments but 2.8 -> 1.4 Is 2 whole stops of light. 1.8 is already 1.33x more light. Great video overwall! was entertaining and fun to watch. Keep it up.
My most used lens on my Canon R6 Mark II is the Sigma Art 50mm 1.4! It's just as sharp as the Canon RF 50 1.2, and it costs 3x less! Also, the Sigma is lighter (even with the RF adapter) and focuses twice as fast as the Canon. AND, in Canada the Sigma lenses come with 7 year warranties vs only 1 year for the Canons.
I just mapped one of the custom buttons on my Sony to toggle crop mode. Now I can shoot at 35mm 33MP or 50mm 24MP using the same lens! I was just starting to price out 50mm lenses too 🤝
I just got 18-300mm for my fuji and it is one of the best lens i've ever used. Even tho it has not the greatest light but still the versetility is awesome
So for aps c shooters that want an all around prime lens would you recommend 35 or 24 ? 24 is the 'equivalent' but I'm scared it looses its similarity when you are closer
The video was really cool by the way
amazing! thank you! i've learned so much new, that i couldnt get from the other youtubers. Also, because of you, I've started photography ;D
thanks for everything!
I absolutely fell in love with my 50mm f1.8. it was the lens I fell in love with when I was younger.
it was definitely my FAVORITE lens when I first started shooting!! 😊
This been my go to lens for a year now 🔥🔥🔥 traded my sigma 35mm in for it
Man I was just about to buy my 35mm 1.8 and then I watched this and was like oh! another reason to buy it!
I have a crop sensor camera with a 25mm manual lens and I love it. I think I prefer the 40mm ff equivalent look which is a good middle ground between 35mm and 50mm
Your video footage of the model on the street looks AMAZING!
Thanks for all the information you provide. Why don't you also add a video on how to use softboxes and what soft boxes are recommended for different strobes or LED lights?
The sigma 35mm 1.4 all around best starter lens!
This fellow makes a really, really good point. You sir, have earned my subscription with a bell - ding, ding ding!
I love my 35 1.2 😊
1.8 is a full stop and a 1/3 more than 2.8 😊
Canon has a crop factor of 1.6.
35mm in full frame is the most versatile for sure 👌
And, 2.8 to 1.4 is 2 stops of light. You can try witj you camera. Every click on the wheel is a third of a stop. You will need 6 clicks to go from one to the other.
BTW stops move withe square root of 2(that is 1.4):
1, 1.4, 2, 2.8, 4, 5.6, 8, 11, 16, 22, 32, 44, 64, ........
hi love the videos just one day if u can please make a video like this just for Sony A7 please
I use canon RP with RF 35mm 1.8, RF 85mm 2.0 and a bunch of daily cheap vintage primes. And the 35mm is my favorite focal length. For now I can’t afford/justify buying an L series zoom lens. My next purchase would be a new pancake RF 28mm 2.8. It is so compact.
if you had the option to choose between the 35mm 1.8 or the 28mm 2.8, which would you get first? Currently have the RF 50mm 1.8 and looking for a 2nd wider prime lens.
@@altonchen8047 oh it’s a really good question. Well at the time when I bought my 35mm I didn’t have an option to purchase a 28mm one. However, if I had this option and I only could get one I would still choose the 35mm one. Because 35mm is more versatile, 1.8 aperture is always better that 2.8, it’s got stabilization and macro capabilities. From the other hand 28mm 2.8 is a budget friendly light weight super compact wide angle lens. And I’ll get one soon because why not.
Shoot Sony not Canon but the Sony 35mm 1.8 is still a killer lens. Even having faster and more expensive lenses having a lightweight and small lens when shooting .... anything, is great. 35mm is solid, from there you can zoom into something like a 85mm or out like a 20 or 24mm.
I currently use a 22mm on a crop sensor for my talking head footage, so essentially 35mm.
We need to get you a 15-35mm 😛
@@AnthonyGugliotta Agreed
That thumbnail filter 🙌
😏💃
I just bought R8 but i am confused about what lens do i have to buy for product indoor and outdoor shoot
Get the 35mm 1.8. it's better to be too wide over too narrow. It's a super sharp lens.
Also, you'll probably want lenses that have image stabilization as the R8 does not have any in body.
@@derbagger22 also macro for product details…😊
it was my first and only lens when i got the EOS RP when it first came out. still great :)
I shoot on Nikon d610, Nikon d200. My lens are a mixed bag of dx and fx but not investing in dx anymore.
Love the video. What city did you shoot this in? Just curious??? The twin buildings in yhe background look familiar.
I'm in Toronto!
I shot on a Fujifilm x-s10 with the 16-80 mm kit lens.
i prefere sigma 18-35mm F1.8 for my canon 90d aps-c (600GBP)
Sony A6100 and two lenses - 18-55 sony and 55-210 sony
I mostly use 24-70 Sigma for my Sony A7iv. I also have a 50 mm Sony lens.
Thank you! Looking forward to Fuji X mount lenses in the same category :) Not necessarily official, but brands like Viltrox etc.
Nice Video, thanks for this insights
XF 23 1.4 on fuji, even more light let in 😊
If having the money f1.4 if on a budget f1.8 but by any means a 50mm for FF or a 35mm is strictly required for any photographer
I have a R50 canon with my 16, 50, 85 STM prime and 24-105 f4 L USM. I have my first baptism event could the lens and camera I have is good to go? Im a fan and a beginner photographer
i Shoot olympus micro 4/3. currently using 12-40 pro lens.
Used to have this lens, but sold it, only because I kept getting missed focus at 1.8 when recording. Overall, it's great and sharp and cheap too.
Bought a 15-35 2.8 as a replacement and it is better at focusing. If there is only an RF 35 1.2L available right now, I would've bought that instead (badly need the wider aperture).
Completely agree. I find I get more missed shots with the f1.8. I'm used to my L lenses which focus really fast, so I'm a bit spoiled.
@@AnthonyGugliottai have the older 50mm f1.8 EF and when my subject is in some king of motion I get missed focus about 50% of the times.
I'm now upgrading to mirrorless and I'd needed I will get a better lens. Let's hope I don't end up spending too much 😅😂
@@mastroitek which 50 1.8 , theres 3 version
The ones with stm work quite well
@@KNAPPAID STM. I always buy the cheapest one that gets the job done, I'm no photographer, I just enjoy taking pictures but can't justify to spend big money on a single lens.
I know that the focus on the 50mm stm is slower, I think that when paired with an EOS 2000D it can take beautiful pictures but AF isn't always great. I now found a used R10, I hope that one will help :)
@@mastroitek actually stm is pretty good , its faster than the old 1.8 and 1.8ii even
Its mostly the body then
Most pdaf bodies run it pretty good , once you put it in 90d or what not - uts damn usable like a modern af
Also , yoy should adapt the 50 into the r10 , i heard ef to rf works great - close to native even
I can't believe I've not bumped into you yet in the streets!
Maybe one day 😝
Amazing thanks!
I use a Sony a7ii and my favourite lens is the 24-105 F4. It was well worth buying it for just 300 euros (very tiny scratch on front element and some dust inside but not visible on photos). Very versatile for some wide shots and 105mm is enough zoom for almost all situations.
I'm confused. Please, coming from a smartphone lingo...
What would be the focal length of say a Wide angle camera?
Can you tell us which lens filter your using
i have a R8. what is a good beginner lens for me to use for sharp images.
I love my 28-70
I have the rebel t7 eos canon came with 18 -55 and the 75-300 ef lens but I want to take wildlife pictures what lens is good for long distance that won't break bank
I use the sigma 30mm f1.4 on my APSC camera and love it. That translates to 45mm, which I feel like is a very nice length.
Same. That Sigma is pretty sharp and 1.4 does great job.
@@Teemontube Ya, it really is! I love it and have been using it for all my photos on my insta at the moment. Hopefully I will snag the sigma 16mm and 56mm soon as well. You rocking a crop sensor too?
@@SomeSloan Canon M50
I have Olympus em mark 1 with kit lens
Want to invest in a good camera lens
Please recommend
My setup is Canon EOS 600D, and Samyang VDSLR 85mm T1.5 both secondhand. Does not need good high ISO performance, I simply blast that sensor with lights 😂
Using canon 200d Mark 2... With lens like kit lens, 55-250, 10-18 and nifty 50
I really want to know about lenses for product indoor and outdoor shoots
Right now I'm contemplating if I should get the 24-105 f4 or the 24mm 1.8. I'm reeally loving the 24mm look right now and I just can't decide
I daily the 24 - 105 f4 and I love it. I shoot cars so i really dont have a reason to go below f4.... so that works out for me. Tho if you are shooting portraits, i can see why youd want 1.8'
I spent $2k for the 15-35 f2.8 just because I don’t like the move in and out thing
Dear Anthony, I have a question: why do you shoot with your camera and you have a GoPro on top? Thank you for your videos that are always interesting to improve myself. 🙏 Greetings from Switzerland 😃
What is the filter you had on the lens?
EOS R; canon rf 24-105mm f4, rf 50mm f1.8 & ef 24-70mm f/2.8 lens
This is why I bought Sigma 30 1.4 for my Sony a6400
So I own a Sony 6400 For the longest time I had only the stock zoom lens that comes with it. A 18-135mm f3.5-5.6. And shooting with it was fun and all but it really didnt feel so good. So I bought a Sigma 30mm f1.4 lens. Since I am on an APSC sensor, I figured that this gets closer to a nifty fifty than an actual nifty fifty as 30*1.5=45mm in the full frame world. But with a fixed lens I felt limited during travel since I love to take images while in moving vehicles. Some of my best images were shot on the train. So zooming is kinda important to me.
My next plan is to go out and buy the Tamron Camera Lens, 70-180 mm F/2.8 Di III VXD and/or the Tamron A036SF 28-75 mm F/2.8 Di III RXD Auto Focus but I am still unsure if they are the best fit. All I know is that I am exited for the fixed aperture.
Also i am planning on upgrading my camera to a Alpha 7 MK4 or whatever will be the newest when I am buying. But I thought The lens will make a larger upgrade for me now.
Hey mate, i want to buy a6400 as my first camera (I have some expirience tho, i'm not a total newbie) but i'm not sure about lens. 6400 is already a bit pricy for me (so you know i'm not really willing to spend more then 1k on lens) and was thinking what to get? Sony nifty fifty or 35 mm f1.8 OR maybe sell my kidney and get the 24-70 mm? Please help. i'd like to focus on videos and photos so something rather Universal for dummies. 🙏🙏
@@jeremimarkowski2638 Hmmm when you buy a prime lens, remember that xou need to multiply the focal length with 1.5 to get the Full Frame equivalent.
30mm apsc = 45mm ff
35mm apdc = 52.5mm ff
So buying an 50mm for the 6400 would be like buying an 75mm lens for a full frame.
Because of that my tip would be to go either for the 35mm or for the 24-70. Check out tamron lenses. They are damn great for everyone but the proest of the pros.
I have a canon r7 with a sigma 18-35 1.8, i think thats the best lens for aps-c cameras if you can afford it
Hi Anthony
I recently purchased a camera nikon z5 body only.
Camera is just take pictures of family and scenery while travelling.
I would like to have an opinion from you to buy lenses.
Options I thought are..
1. Just 28-75mm f2.8
2. 24mm f1.8 and 85mm f1.8
3. Just 35mm f1.8
Please give me honest opinion
Thanks.
Just brought a cannon t6i what’s a good lens for video
Noob question: can you use it with a6000 too?
Actually , the fuji 18-55 f2.8-4 takes that place
It has ois , a faster stop at all aperture than most kits and its a fuji lens
Its funny that stm is considered noisy , i remember back when L usm lenses are noisier , its deff slower tho
And isnt f1.8 1 1/3 of a stop higher than f2.8
Great content... Anthony, you are always A+++ ;-)😊
35mm is a nice focal lenght. However, does it worth to invest in the EF 35mm 1.4 L Mark II instead? I know it is heavier and even longer with the adapter, but you get 2/3 stops and a better build. @anthony what do you think?
@AnthonyGugliotta
Lens Filters, there are no links in the description for the filters you are using. Please provide the links.
What camera was used to film this video? I can't seem to find the camera via the link. And which LOG was it shot with? I think the quality and grading are delicious.
Could you do sigma 30mm f/1.4 or the sigma 56mm f/1.4?
15-35 L wabble was crazy bro
Is the RF 35mm the lens you're using to film this video? The video quality is insane! Also, are you touching up the quality with software? If so, what do you use?
My company wants me to start shooting video ads and testimonials (I'm in marketing) but in my mind, I need a bunch of lighting and crazy tech to get this level of quality. Any pointers would be much appreciated (and potentially save my job 😂)
I have a Canon R100. I want the new third-party Canon RF-S Mount lens F2 .8 18-50 mm made by Sigma.
Omg did i see Polarpro VND.. no its not. Please explain it 😂
The man speaks again.
Oo no Gopro is still using Polarpro.
Keep it rolling. Amazing stuff,
Amazing stuff.

I have a canon rebel 7 I know nothings about photography. I am looking for a lens that gives me that blurry background with a caramels color. What do you recommend???
Hi, do you use protection filters such UV or Clear? I want to protect my L lenses but afraid it might reduce IQ?
Thanks
I am a beginner. What do you recommend for me, canon eos r or sony a7iii
What lens you recommend for a nikon mirrorless z7?
nice vid
why should i if i can do that in 0.5 😄😄 or 1x 24 or 35mm but in bokeh i needed the camera at lens but that iPhone is enough hehe
which manfrotto tripod is that @ 5:51 ? i'm looking to buy something smaller than my bulky manfrotto xpro b and a i saw an affordable manfrotto element model that's in a more desirable measurements of 40cm.
im shooting with the 1300D canon with the kit lense
kit lense been not working correctly i think i broke the focus motor so it just telling me upgrade the lense already
from today on I will call you Kolamma... its a great name
RF 35 mm macro???
what about micro 4/3 cameras?
Which preset was used for this shoot?
I have Nikon D3100 with 18-300mm f-3.5-6.3 dc macro Sigma and 18-105 original (im 11
What filter is that?
Canon 90d
OK Anthony, One of my cameras is a Nikon Z6. I do have a 40mm F2 lens which is an inexpensive lens but renders beautiful images, I'm wondering if this is close enough to a 35mm F1.8 that spending the money on the 35mm isn't justified. What do you think?
Well, if he never gets back to you, I'd say absolutely 👍🏼
1/3 of a stop of light and 5 mm tighter will hardly make a noticeable difference.
@@Sydney_Jones I tend to agree. The Z 40mm renders great images at a great price.
Sony a7rv
I want to cry everytime thinking about when canon want to produce 35 usm l series .. come on canon
Sony a6000
What do you the GoPro mounted to the cold shoe for?
I used it to film some BTS footage. I didn't end up using it in this video!
@@AnthonyGugliotta I ended up binging your channel and found the video you did on it! Thanks so much Anthony! I love your stuff!
I recently bought a Nikon Z50 with a kit lens and I'm looking to get a faster lens, what's the best lens for a beginner?
I've only been doing photography for a year now but I'd recommend a 24-105 f4. I know primes are good and make you think differently but beginners aren't going to want to do photography as much if they're severely limited like with a prime, that's why I would say a versatile lens with lots of range is best. If you want something faster but has less range then get a 24-70 f2.8 or something similar. Also, it depends what kind of photography you do and your budget. I do landscape mostly so I don't need a fast lens, I'd say fast lenses are only needed for portrait, video, or if you shoot low light a lot.
Sony A7, 50mm, 14mm, 24mm, 40mm
Great set!
@@AnthonyGugliotta 🙌
Have you shot on a canon Rf 70-200 f4? 2.8 is so expensive 😢
Get an EF version and adapt it.
@@derbagger22 I wanted to adapt sony E lenses to my a7ii which has FE mount but E mount lenses don't have weather sealing, not sure if it's like that with canon apsc lenses.
A humble Sony a6000 with its kit lens :) Where should I go for here? I use the camera mainly for photogrammety, so I usually use it with an aperture from f/5.6 or smaller to get the most sharpness to any object that is usually 0.5 m~1 m away from the camera.
I guess you just need a sharp lens. Normally the middle of your aperture range is the sharpest so between f7.1 - f11. I don't think you need lots of zoom for photogrammetry but I don't know.
@@1ilrx I mean, I could use zoom if I try to recreate something that is unreacheable to me (like a high ceiling that even with a ladder I couldn't reach it). But the condition stays: sharpness.
@@luispereztasso I can't think of any good lenses for you and I dont really know what lenses are very sharp but I believe Zeiss have some of the sharpest glass for sony.
You can get the Sony E 35mm F1.8 OSS made for Sony APS-C bodies like the a6000.
