In episode 4, I discuss replicating previously successful videos on the channel and share analytics from my popular videos on the RF 70-200mm f/4 and RF 24-105mm lenses. Thumbnails, titles, and video length affected how I thought about building on previous videos I made. I reflect on a recent channel performance and explore strategies for maintaining quality while attracting traffic. Lastly, I discuss the importance of targeting search, experimenting with different topics on KZread that target both broad and niche interests, and more.

Please do this RF 28mm vs. RF 35mm lens video! I'd really like to hear your opinion on that topic.

I'll probably spend some time shooting dual on the trip.

I think if i had to choose between both it would be more about use cases, general usability and versatility than about image quality. They make both great images for their price point.

Agreed, I like having the macro option, and prefer 35mm for a talking head shot. But usually 28mm for everything else and it's been a good compromise for me.
Question, do you feel it’s worth the time, energy and money to move over from the 24-105mm F4 L EF lens to the R version of the same lens? Same question for the 70-200mm F4 L. I have the R and RP bodies.

If it were me, and I already had the EF versions, I would probably be waiting for the RF mark ii's of these to see if they offer drastic improvement. Adapting is not ideal for the form factor reason, but continues to work well on everything I've tried myself.
