Excellent explanation and examples. I use a cheap 50mm lens because my "set" has some depth to it, with lighting in the background, so I like the blurring back there.

I use my 30mm lens for my beauty tutorials!!! Love the bokeh, because my background isn’t very lovely!! Lol

If it's for beginners I would have thought you would have started with explaining what the numbers means. That's why I'm here. 😔

Was searching on KZread to learn about what the numbers on lenses mean. after 3 different videos, I clicked on yours. Your video made me understand not only what the numbers mean but what the numbers on the lenses help to achieve. Really really love this video for learning. Will be coming back to take more notes. Thank you!! Liked and Subbed!

I learn alot by watching your channel. I cant thank u enough for all the information and examples you give. I will put them to use for sure. Keep it up Think Media!

Just to throw out some important info to consider. If you are using a Canon Rebel series camera- you have to multiply 1.6 (crop factor) by the focal length to get the TRUE or actual focal length. Example: Canon EF 10 -18 mm X 1.6 (crop factor) actually = 16-32 mm or 18-55 mm X 1.6(crop factor) actually = 28.8 - 88 mm Thanks! Great video!

True. However, that doesn't apply to EF-S lenses correct? The 10-18 EF-S is a crop sensor lens ... vs... the Canon EF 17-40mm. The 17-40 on a crop camera would be multiplied by 1.6... but a native crop sensors lenses should be true to the focal length they promise. Unless I'm wrong...

EF-S lenses are still the same focal length and still need to multiply by the crop factor but the actual lens only needs to let light in to cover the smaller sensor. A crop lens put on full frame will actually have part of the image cut off because the sensor is so much larger. (If the lens even works as some will and some wont) crop cameras can use larger lenses meant for full frame as well.

Ive watched 5 different videos on lenses and this is the first one that actually explains the mm effect on how the subject looks and not just the difference between the focal lengths. Thank you!!

just starting to learn all the basics of photography and videography. great video, thanks!

Philip Cheng you’re welcome!

this is video is perfect timing, we're just starting KZread and this information is extremely helpful. Currently we shoot with the 18-55 that came with the camera, however we just bought the 24 mm, 10-18 will be the next on the list.

Dude, you are on top of all the content I need! KZread: Pay this MAN!!!

very helpful thanks i learn a lot from this video, now i going to make a better job ,thank you again

this is so helpful as are all your videos, thank you!

This could not have been more timely. I just got my SL2, body only, so I needed the refresher course. Thank you!

What a great explanation of how these lenses work! You are the first person to explain this so clearly! Thanks!

You're a mind reader because I've been trying to figure out what lens to use for different pics/recording. Thank you so much

This is such a badass video. You explained everything so clearly, I love how you tried out the different lenses so we could see what they actually look like, and just the different angles you used (showing us that you’re moving the camera forward) was really cool. You really put in effort for this video and it really really shows. Thank you for the info!!!

i have been saving this video in my watch later playlist for so long so that i'll watch it when i have a dslr, now that i have one this video helped me so much, thanks for your help

I have been solely using my kit lens zoomed in as much as possible for the space I have. I'm wanting to get the Nifty 50 for filming (maybe the 24 now that you bring it to my attention they seem similar for what I'm hoping to achieve) I also want to get a telezoom lens for nature shots soon

Shelbizleee just remember if you are getting 50mm lens it will be 80mm if u have crop sensor camera. You probably know this. I didnt know this for very long😅

My tip is to start where you are with what you have, and be creative with it! I have two kit lenses with my Nikon and I just picked up a Nikkor/Nikon 50mm f/1.8 used for $60! So, I'm learning to maximize in the limitations until I can move up a notch or two, I am LOVING the 50mm though! That depth of field effect is intoxicating!

@migranthawker2952

Depth of field depends on 2 things, image magnification and aperture size. The focal length is irrelevant.

Man I am so glad I found your channel because I have no idea about any of this stuff and you really break it down for us thank you so much. Especially I am on a limited budget and I want to get a great camera to do tutorials but I don’t need anything that is super pro and expensive

You have hit the nail right on the head by this topic. We new users or DSLR or potential buyers need this and more to figure out what’s best for us. Please do a bit more of these videos especially Art Lens and Fixed Focal Length Lens

I just got a mirror less camera with interchangeable lenses. So this helps soooo much!

Hey Sean ! Thanks for this video I really looking for a video on this You put a great work on your vids And they are absolutely awesome

been looking yesterday on my own and learning by myself for 2 hours and now today I see a new video on this channel about lenses.. :D

Great video. I'm a DSLR noob and this helped a lot

Great video! My fiance and I are starting our vlog channel this week and we have ordered a 11-22 lens from Cannon for wide shots in the car. We have just the stock EOS M5 lens right now and it's great for videos of us talking like about a topic, but not so great for walking around and vlogging. Thank you so much for your tips and your feedback! Your videos have helped this novice editor and cameraman actually come to this KZread platform with some pretty cool stuff. You're crushing it and I hope to see you soon!

Just getting into DSLRs as I am going on a Euro trip with the GF and going to be blogging. I can't thank you enough for the detail and explanation in the video. Keep up the great work!

Concise, hugely helpful, amped pace -- vintage Cannell. Just an outstanding video! Thanks so much, brother Sean!

Thanks a lot! Your videos are very helpful, informative and much appreciated.

Huge help, thanks for going over this. It was just enough to give us an idea of where to start looking and what we are looking for.

If I'm shooting products for photography and video reviews, what lens do you recommend for the details? I've been using a Canon 18-135mm but looking for something different. Thanks.

Love your videos they’re really helpful. What lens would you recommend if i want to make a street interview video?(low to middle price)Thank you👍🏻

This is excellent. I'm a newbie photographer, not a KZreadr, but the way you portrayed the different focal lengths while providing the side camera shot at the same time is invaluable for everyone. Also, you're an excellent teacher. Your delivery is spot-on, you have excellent emphasis with your voice, and the raw examples of everything like the two cameras that I mentioned above is fantastic. I'm not sure if you follow Jonathan Morrison, but you two have very similar vocal delivery and "we're going to show you raw examples" kinds of approaches to things, which is awesome-it's a compliment to you and him, I think you two could work together. :D Great video overall, thanks for making this!

This was SUPER helpful. Thank you for the visual example with each lens. The comparison was helpful! :)

This was a super informational, on the point, and relevant overview of the basics of camera lenses. Thank you!

Thanks for this video, it really helped me understand the differences in lenses!

Dude, thank you! Best knowledgeable video EVER!

Super helpful! Appreciate the explanations accompanied by visuals.

Your videos are extremely helpful! Thank you for the information!

Great video, this information was exactly what I was looking for. The practical demonstrations were great thanks.

By far the best explanation!!

Additional thoughts for beginners on lenses, with fixed focal lengths: Fixed focal lengths can be really affordable and have a tendency to have sharper glass than the kit lens. But you really can´t zoom with these, which is not as bad as you might think. Also they are usually "faster", so they can let in a lot of more light than other lenses. You say they are "faster", because with more light coming into the camera you can increase the shutter speed in low light and also in general. Possible downside on these lenses: Unlike the kit lenses, they are not stabilized, so to get good footage you either need a slider, a solid in-camera stabilization or just a tripod for static shots. Or (!!) a really steady hand. But they are the most affordable lenses on the market and usually you will always find a great purpose for these lenses! QOTD Answer: I use 3 different lenses right now. An 8 mm fisheye 3.5 for filming skateboarding, the canon 18-55mm kit lens, for skateboarding and other filming and the canon 50 mm 1.8 for photography ( and also for filming). I love the sharpness and the bokeh for this unbelievable price.

Hi! I am very new to the world of lenses. I just bought a used Panasonic G3. I now wonder what lens can I get to get the best sharpness when I record with the overhead view? It's like 70 cm above where I have my camera. Also I have heard that the lens is what matters most when it comes to a camera. I'm guessing that means sharpness in the picture? How do you determine what is a better lens? I currently have a 14-42 Lumix lens. Thanks your time :)

Thanks Sean! Your videos are always useful and helpful!

Very useful! Thank you! 💯

Hey! Hola Lalo. Sos un genio!

Thank you for you videos. They are on point and informative. I currently use my samsung s7 active for fun but looking for a more almost professional gear.

Thanks for doing this video, it was something I needed to know.

Thanks, very helpful!!

Hi Sean! Thanks for the video. It's nice to know the distortion on each lens for each focal length. By the way, same here, my favorite lens so far is Canon 24mm f2.8 (pancake) too. But, most of time I'm not using it for video, just take picture use the lens. From my perspective it's a really great lens, the size is not too big (so flexible to bring it), the focus is fast, and the focal length is enough for anytime I use it.

I have been considering which lens to get with a Blackmagic Pocket 4k, and I have been swimming in gear videos - but YOURS is the first video that helped me to immediately grasp what the numbers on these lenses mean and look like. Thank you so much for the clear and concise info!!

I been waiting on a video like this 🙌 thanks Sean!

This is really helpful as I just purchased my first dslr. I'm Using the kit lens and had no idea what all the numbers meant. Seeing this video really has helped. Will check out more of your clips. Thanks so much👍🏻

thanks so much for your videos, i'm such a newbie and you really help me figure out what i need :)

Thank you for the guidance. I wanna make my footage as professional as possible. I love learning new things and watching your videos.

most helpful channel for youtube equipment and youtube itself !! thank you thank you !!

This was a great detailed video!! I’m looking into photography so I’m researching and learning the basics!! Thanks!

Thank you so much for making everything so easy to learn. I wanted to start photography and I'm only 15, so when you broke it down it helped me out so much.

Thank you for this video, it was very very helpful. i love the explanations, it was very useful

Thanks for the clear, informative video. Really helpful!

I loved your explanation and it is is handy to actually see the results lenses produce to achieve specific look, very handy and really helps to decide which lens might be useful for different applications, Canon makes so many lenses! I found their live chat useful to filter through the range. Thanks again for great content.

Ive been struggling with the concept of lenses. Thanks for clearing the air.

Thanks for the video. I appreciate the time involved.

This was great, thank you! I have a Canon T5i. I've been using the 18-55mm kit lens a lot but I bought a 50mm vintage lens-Sears model, I love its bokeh. I also like my Rokinoh Aspherical 28-90mm, the look is so clear and special the bokeh is beautiful! Thanks , for always- "crushing it" on KZread Sean!

This was super helpful, and your video made me actually get a DSLR instead of a camcorder. I am very glad that I did, thanks for the awesome video!

Sean every time I have a question I find the answer on your channel. You are awesome.

Just wow!! Perfect explanation thanks a lot. Best video on the subject ever 👌🙏❤️

Have just bought a Canon 750d with 3 lenses so thank you for this video. As a noobie vlogger starting out this has helped me with a lens choice.

Amazing video .....really explained everything in a nut shell and great to show comparison

You explained very well. Thanks a lot

very helpful video. thanks!

Τhat was very helpful! As you ve promised, I am waiting for the next video on lences, and if I may propose could you please take it to a couple of different events, like a sports game inside or outside, a low light evening party or wedding etc, and explain why you are choosing the lens you 're choosing and what aperture, ISO, shutter speed? 2-3 min per event for 2-3 different events will be a very informative and real life situation video that we all need. Thanks again for your good work Sean!

Wonderful video! THANK YOU!

VERY informative AS Always, which is why i recommend your channel All the time wether word of mouth or in End Screen on my Videos. JUST bought a 35mm f1/7 lens and lookin forward to testing it.
