      85mm definitely. Focuses on the subject in my music videos, though it's m43 so I guess it's closer to 170mm, but I dig it. Rokinon 85mm t1. 5. Keep up the great work!

    85mm is used in a lot of Movies for focusing in on a character then they switch to 35mm to give the audience perspective of the setting, wihout revealing too much, making them think about what's about to happen next. The Village is a perfect Example

    Based on this it should be safe to conclude that the 24mm looks perfect for fast paced action, the 35mm for normal everyday action and the 85mm (or 50mm) is perfect for slow and surreal action.

    • @slurp3194
      @slurp3194 2 года назад +5

      35 and 50mm are almost interchangeable. I havnt seen any dp go that wide like 24mm they usually still to 35mm for wide actions scenes anything else becomes way too chaotic. 50mm is most commonly used it really doesn’t have a specialty you use it when ever for what ever super safe focal length and 85mm for film making is alot more rare.

  • @thisiserich
    @thisiserich Год назад +8

    I would say if you can only afford one lens and you absolutely want a prime to get a 35mm lens. It kind of does everything you need from wide shots to tighter, more intimate shots. It’s also 3-4 times lighter than zoom lenses. Just gotta use your body as the zoom. Also, don’t forget that Sony cameras all have their aps-c mode. That means you can turn a 35mm into a 52.5mm with the click of a button. The sensor oversamples on the A7IV so even on aps-c mode you’re still capturing 4.6k downsampled to 4k. Full frame mode downsamples from 7k.
    When I leave the house I don’t like taking a huge cache of gear. I take my camera with one lens(35mm f1.8 on the body), a mic, a mini tripod, and a variable nd filter. That setup covers me for 90% of shooting both photos and video. It took me years to finally come to terms with this setup but I’m telling you, it’s so freeing to drop all that insane, mostly unused weight.

    Loved the profile 85mm - it really connected you with the subject but wasn't disorienting. You gave me an idea, too: the 85mm circle shot would work well if you're trying to convey that someone just got some bad news that has thrown their world into chaos. Regardless, I learned a lot through this video. Thanks for sharing!

  • @Carson878
    @Carson878 Год назад +3

    Technically because the lower the focal length the more the image compressed into the frame which makes everything "moves" faster due to more image is moving in the same range/size, and this is also why you see some distortion around the frame.

    Hey, that is really a very good video! I have been a photographer since I was a child and have been photographing professionally for the last 16 years. I have also discovered video for myself some time ago. I was shooting weddings 99% of the time with two cameras, using a 50mm and a 35mm lens. Now, I have a 24mm lens that I absolutely love and use almost all the time for my videos, along with a 50mm. Since I got a new camera, I still need to buy the 35mm lens. I'm not sure if I really need it, but I don't want to miss having it. For me, 24mm, 35mm, and 50mm are the most important focal lengths. I use only prime lenses.
    I liked the shots with the 24mm lens the best. It was great to see them compared like this!

    Ergens halverwege zeg je dat je je gimbalinstellingen moet aanpassen want dat je niet helemaal tevreden bent.
    Als je een recente gopro (of een ander apparaat dat gyroscoopdata opneemt) op je camera plaatst kan je nadien met gyroflow je beelden nog supersmooth krijgen.
    Zo kan je ALLE camerafootage stabiliseren, zelfs footage zonder gimbal opgenomen krijg je zo smooth als iets.
    Heb dit nog nergens in je filmpjes gezien maar lijkt me wel interessant.

    hey, weighing in late here. To me when using the 24mm the background needs to be interesting or at least NOT distracting, which I felt it was in the shots where there is a truck or hanger behind her. The 35mm blurs the background a bit more, which helps. And the 85mm definitely feels more interesting for cinematic shots, isolates the character. What do you think about the 50mm focal length for gimbal work?

      Log: yes! Stabilization in post: No, I turned on IBIS for extra smoothness.

      @@JorisHermans Thx!! the smoothness of your gimbal shots are amazing!! I've tried some walking shots with a Ronin RSC2 but the gimbal wouldn't hold the camera still which was very disappointing and ended up returning the gimbal. I'm sure some of it was user error but it would shake from left to right and couldn't seem to get it to stop that... thanks again for replying :)

    I liked both extremes in different situations. I shoot woodturning or carving mostly, so close up rather static shots. would you recommend a 35mm for that?
