Secret's out! My Swiss army knife lens is a 100mm MACRO! Anyone else guilty?
Me
A Macro lens will be my next purchase. I do have a "nifty fifty" but I want to get a more dedicated macro.Currently looking at the EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro. *Drools*
Peter McKinnon man stop posting super interesting video at dinner time 😉 i
We're looking to add a macro to our Panasonic G7 (4/3 size). Any Suggestions Pete?
My rokinon 100mm macro should arrive today. Excited!
normal people: "oh it's raining"
Peter: "B-ROLL!"
i also just wanted to add for people that didnt know you could even get a macro lens for roughly $150 - $250 and they are really good. only problem is that they dont have zoom or stablization but they are still great for macro, portrait and even landscape.
Early squad. Hey, Peter, can you make a video about camera bags? Would be awesome to have a good recommendation for a camera bag for light run and gun street vlogging setup. Thanks and once again, congratulations on 1M
Lowepro Protactic series is amazing! I have the smaller 350AW and it's so rugged but still light, best investment ever.
350AW is amazing
have it too. the best BP I have ever used.
Hey there Hagazo, I bought the LowePro 450AW (the largest in their series) for its extra space. I thought it would be too big but as a 5'10 individual it was a perfect fit (maybe even a bit smaller than I thought). Highly recommend it
Hagazo I use the same one as Peter, the protactic 450aw, seriously well made and really light weight. Climbed a mountain during a rain storm with it and ally gear was bone dry the entire time. It even comes with a built in weather sheild that you can pull out.
I need a macro lens - I currently have a 18-55 and while I can manage some cool shots with it, there isn't quite enough there to really make the shots pop and show as much detail as I'd like.
I hate insects but taking a super close up shot of a bee was my first "Woah" moment and I don't think I'll ever forget it.
This video is perfection. Straight to the point. I love my macro lens
I honestly fell into the same trap of thinking macro lenses were only good for macro shots. Thanks Pete! Always learning something new!
Amazing work! I am so happy that you finally reached the million subscribers.
You inspired me a lot since I have started watching your videos. Thank you!
Hey Peter, could you list out your lenses in the order of most usage. When you don't know what to expect from a shoot , what are your 4 go to lenses ? Congrats on 1 mil :D
Avinash Murthy Well my recommendation is a 24-70 and a 70-200 that’s pretty much all you need and if you need a macro then bring a macro lens or a extension tube that’s pretty much all you need, unless you mysteriously don’t know your going to do wildlife photography you don’t need anymore and you can also get a telephoto converter if your that worried about needing everything
You are so right. I take my Tokina 100mm f/2.8 AT-X Lens everywhere with me now, absolutely wonderful for Portraits. Even better than my 85mm 1.8~
isnt 100mm a bit too much zoom xd? are there any around like under 50 mm that are as good? :)
Your phone? :-p no but you can use 35mm - it takes a lot more skill , but people use it to portrait :)
What i love about two minute tuesday is that when i'm rushing on something. I can still watch this since it's just two minutes! 😁👍
Someone tell him
I don't understand why people dislikes this type of cool videos 😑
Rohan Dutta True
youtube bots go round disliking popular videos
Oh wow. What a strange concept.
it´s just a bunch of envy youtubers
I think because they are jealous
I love my macro lens, and I agree. I use it for much, much more than macro shots (although it’s obviously perfect for that too!)
I love how these 2 minute Tuesday’s are not even 2 minutes
Bruh
This was as close as you’re probably ever gonna get
I have the Canon 24-70 f/4 and it has a macro mode built in. Love that I can get in close.
You make Tuesday my new favorite day of the week with these videos.
I agree completely, everyone should play around with a macro lens (the all-in 100mm). Amazing rain!!
Dude I just have to say, one of the biggest things you've inspired me on the last few months that I watch your videos is: awesome b-roll and unique photos are EVERYWHERE! I used to keep my camera with me all the time to shoot cool stuff I saw, never thought "just flip that over to video mode..."
The rain B-roll was calm vibes😌😌
That rain b-roll at the end.....inspirational. Plus, we need rain out here in the west.
Peter i am just 16. and i know it is going to be amazingly rare that you would read my comment. but anyways it is not a long time i have been to your channel, one day i went on searching on youtube about transitions in premiere pro. i saw many videos and was getting and idea how we can use premiere pro i am just a beginner. but finally your video came up of transitions in which you taught people about masking the video. i really got it now its easy for me. after that i saw your many video and realized you put 2 minute video every Tuesday and that is the video i just love it. well i don't have a camera and i don't know if i will get one or not. but one thing i know is that never give up and do something which you love. Even you quit for one year but came up blasting. and that's where you found yourself. you were very inspiring in the video. and that cap will be with you for the rest of your life and i know it. because you are not over yet their is a lot yet to come. people will love you for that. congratulations for your 1 million subscribers. if you read this fully i love you and good luck for future and THANK YOU.
please reply if you can.
Yep! A good macro lens is never a mistake. I made all of this seasons Team Photos for TSG Hoffenheim with the Canon 100mm L Macro...
Exactly the information I needed - confirmed by a reputable RUclipsr :) I have used macro lenses but I don't buy them. They are out of my $$ range and most importantly don't give me the extreme magnification that I like working with. So I prefer using extension tubes, reverse rings & microscope objectives... Recently I had an argument - well more like a discussion, with another photographer who claimed that everything shot with a macro lens is - macro photography... I tried to explain to him more about the true macro ratio 1:1 and how a macro lens ( unlike ext. tubes, reverse rings and microscope objectives ) doesn't get out of focus just because you are slightly further away. So with macro lenses you can shoot macro but you can also shoot close-ups and regular photos, that don't have the required magnification ratio to be considered true macro. Really good video, thank you for sharing :)
I have the 100mm macro and the 16-35 macro. With my nifty 50, it's the only lenses I need! I also have a 10-18 and the kit 18-55, but they don't get as much love as the first three 😍
*Shame I just blew my budget on my new 17-50mm 2.8 lens, although I do know now what to save up for next in my lens* *arsenal. Some really good points here Pete! As always, your videos help me out on my path to become a professional* *videographer & film maker. Appreciate ya* ! 🙏 ✌
you should definitely get a macro lens like the 100mm, great versatility like Peter said in the video. One of my friends who does wedding photography always has one of those with him as his fav lens and shoots great pics with it!
17-50 2.8 is also a great lens to upgrade from the kit lens
yeah for sure, and indeed the 17-50 is pretty neat so far as far as I can tell, only a bit more wobbly than the kit lens (which has pretty good vibration reduction built in, whereas the Sigma 17-50mm has optical stabilization in combo with a lot more weight so a bit more shakiness).
And yeah bro, thanks! That sequence from the cooking from a couple vids back kinda proves all of his points haha + that he's just a great videographer of course :)
Sven Vee completely agreed so informative get more out of this then I do when I go into a camera store
Trying to sell my Canon 17-55 2.8 because Panasonic life
I use my macro for everything. it's actually one of my favorites for portraiture because of the combination of detail and bokeh is perfect for my style
just bought using your affiliate link :) - thanks for the recommendation
The guy could have said thank you...... What a jerk.
@@king0cans The guy gets hundreds of comment everyday,i think he just didn't see this comment
@@Henry_44 Riiiiight
I have Nikon D3200 with kitlens. My first lens that I purchased was the 40mm f2.8 Macro lens. I love this lens..
Pretty please do a video on how you use Epidemic Sound to choose music. I love your music and Epidemic is epic, but what methods do you use to search their extensive database. Thanks in advance and thanks for an incredible channel. You've inspired me loads
Completly agree, my Sony 90mm f/2.8 Macro has become my most versatile lens that I own
Who sticked through the rain B-roll? 😁
Joespn 🙋🏽♂️🙋🏽♂️🙋🏽♂️
We did, can't get enough of this guy!
Guilty Lol
Joespn who didn't?
Joespn God dammit he can make rain look gorgeous when I'm sitting here with a gorgeous sunrise and i still can make it look gorgeous. Jk love you Pete!
I have the EF 100mm f/2.8 IS USM as well. I've done a lot of product photography with it for my sisters cosmetic line and obviously flowers, and even some portraits. Though the 100mm focal length can make portraiture difficult on an APS-C camera, which is like using a 160mm lens on a full frame. I have to stand so far back from the subject so it's not always practical for portraits. It is a handy lens though
Gorgeous lens, what's the Nikon version of that type of lens?
Nikon has a 105mm f2.8 Macro and a 60mm f2.8 version as well.
Photomeike thanks man, appreciate it. 😊
No problem. Also if you are ok with third party lenses. Tamron makes a 90mm f2.8 Macro that is a great alternative and less expensive!
Photomeike thanks will look into that one too. 😊
would recommend the nikkor 60mm 2.8 D, one of the sharpest lens nikon ever made.
Ok, so I don't usually leave comments, and I'm clearly doing so here to have a shot in the contest. But honestly, I've been watching you're channel for some time now and it's really brilliant stuff. Always a good place to find some inspiration. Keep up the good work.
Awesome! A macro lens is still on my list of lenses to buy. Need to bump up the priority!
The only lens I shoot with is a 70-300mm lens with macro. I love it ! Gets some pretty amazing shots with it
Nice. I've never looked into these. Pretty dope!
Thank you so much for this. I have just ordered the Canon 24-105 mm F/4 macro and the guy told me this same information, but this is the first video I have found on this!
When you go over two minutes you should have to drink a terrible flavor of coffee after. I think it would add to the excitement.
Michael Nichols maybe he'll hardly find anything terrible :P
The idea is good though
Good idea, would be hard for him to time it though as he will only actually know after editing
I have been watching your videos for the past month or so. Enjoy every time that I get to watch one of your videos it has become a daily ritual for me. I just wanted to let you that you have inspired me to be me and to reach for my dreams so thanks.
Man i Wish 2 minutes tuesday was everyday.
I'm awed that you were fascinated by the rain at the end of the video, and promptly took out your camera and shoot for some b-roll without any hesitation! If it were me, I'd just think negatively about it and dismiss it. Again, thanks for inspiring all of us here with your vids!
Sold! I'm going to get one NOW! Haha
wish i had the budget to just go out and buy a new lens hahahaha
6 months later and I bet you still didn't get it..
I never thought to ever use a macro lens until this vid! Canny wait!! Pics and vid look like magic ✨✨✨
Hey Peter! I would watch gladly watch a video about your premiere export settings if you made one ;)
As I started clicking photos in my Sony cybershot Digicam way back , my first object was a fly and it came fantastic. since then I was fascinated by Macro shots and still am. But I depend on my mobile LG G6 for those type of shots..
Next tuesday: how to shoot a B-roll UNDER the rain? Just sayin', it could be fun to watch :D
I love my Sony FE 90mm f/2.8 Macro G OSS len, i mostly use it for landscape photography but it also amazing for portrait and of course macro .
Can u make another video on product photography tutorial at a cheap budget...
With love from India.. 😁😀
LOL INDIA 👍🏻
A macro lens was already going to be my next purchase photography wise, but you sold me on it even more! I will use it mostly for macro though, because that's my favorite type of photography!
Probably a quite stupid question for you camera geeks out there, but what is the difference between a macro lens and a prime lens. I own a 50mm prime lens and I know its used for portraits. But my friend had a 50mm macro lens and i couldn't find a single difference.
Someone wanna help me out and tell me?😄😃
Did anyone ever answer? They aren't mutually exclusive.
Prime means you are fixed at 50mm, as opposed to a Zoom lens which might have a range of 24-105mm or whatever, which would allow you to zoom in or out as you please. There are advantages to both.
Macro means you can focus on things which are very close to the camera and pick up a lot of detail, so if you wanted some really good flower/insect/other type photos this would be an advantage. Both yours and your friends are 50mm Prime, his is additionally macro.
That is a very shallow run down.
LoH Bros Yeah, Nobody ever replied. Thanks... 😊☺
Pete, there's a Tokina 100mm f2.8 macro that you NEED to have. Not sure if it comes in a Canon mount, but it's one of the best lenses for the money and it is DIRT cheap.
BOOOOOOM You literally made a video about the question I asked in the pizza video lol Thanks pete!
completely off topic but I've just noticed your industrial shelves on the back wall and they're awesome! same as a macro lens, mine is my fave!
Please Sir Make a detail video about canon 50mm F 1.8 lense
Here my answer om your first comment: If you subscribe my channel I will subscribe your channel, maybe we can learn from eachother but I film with a camcorder,at the moment I lent a DSRL nikon from my sister so I can try with this but that is all new for me
csomersbloem rule 1 in RUclips advertisement, never ask someone to subscribe to you
okey thanks for the tip, I won;t do it again
LOVE it... I got the chance to borrow the L macro from a friend and I fell in love with the way the colours looked and with the sharp and detailed results. It was the first time shooting an L lens and that was the point at which I decided to invest in quality Glas instead of buying more and more cheap lenses:D
Your knuckles have suffered R E C E N T L Y.
Fell off my OneWheel at warp speed lol.
Damn! Be careful! >:(
Peter McKinnon should have had a warp stabilizer instead
hehe that was a good one
Yea I was wondering if it was a tattoo 😂😂😂
If you check Headshot King Peter Hurley videos when he uses his Canon DSLR the Canon 100mm macro was his money maker! I use my Nikon 105mm 2.8vr for Portraits mostly & wedding ring shots! Sharp a hell. Great focal length.
What is the best budget macro lens?
What is the best budget Whiskey?
The one you have, buy some extension tubes 😉
Antonio A.A. I dont have one thats why the question is here (I wanna buy one)
Whiskey any lens plus extension tubes makes a macro lens. That's what Antonio was trying to say
Lucas Ward ooh okay I got it. Then.. you can recommend me a good extension tube?
when I shot Nikon I loved my 60mm macro this was before the time of video on DSLR cameras but I loved shooting portraits with it too. Good video.
Can someone tell me what an L lens is?
Eric Edward Jones Canon "Luxury" Lenses
Thank you!
Eric Edward Jones they're the best lenses Canon makes
Its like AMG at Mercedes ^^
Canon L series lenses are the best quality lenses that canon makes, they are geared towards professional use and they are full frame lenses
wow, until you told the story about your youtube jorney. When you putted out your first video. I didn't even knew that i appearently started watching from the first video. And i saw the whole jorney till 1million subs. Wow. True inspiration with an awesome personality. Keep it up!
Do a video ob shooting a snowflake with a macro.It would be SOOO cool.
Like kf you agree
SP3CTRUM nice link man
HenkShows i didnt even mean it ha! Free phone service bug thing
SP3CTRUM haha i know :D just joking
What a great summary. Defo on board with whole macro thing. Super sharp, great portrait lens... what's not to love, right?!
I hate you, you me spend so much money. Macro lens > food.
I mean, with a macro lens you can make less food appear larger 🤷🏻♀️
Denise Lisboa I like your logic. Lmao
Your the only photography youtuber who actually makes me not bored in the matter of seconds
I've been using the non-Is Canon Macro lens for about a year. It can capture some amazing images. Peter's estimation on price was about $100 more than what I've seen them go for--that is to say, you ought to be able to get an even better deal on one. Check it out!
I like the shallow depth of a macro lens.. but i would prefer standing far from the subject while shooting macro by using extension tubes with a zoom lens. Almost the same results with more comfort.
I'm actually very surprised I stumbled across this! Was looking for tips on shooting and whst macro lenses were all about then came across you peter! congrats on the 1 mil!
I started filming for a local high school's football (American) game's and last week a had the opportunity and privilege to use a 70-250 L series for the first time first time really using a good macro lens I was terrified at first because of how different it was from my usual 30mil sigma which is my Reg go to lens but let me freaking tell you! This thing was a power house! I got incredible shots i didn't think I'd ever be able to get! Learning it was a little weird and sketchy at first but it's such an amazing tool differently one of my next investments!!! Thanks for the pro tips my dude!
I remember watching the first one of your videos while searching for tips for one of my photography projects at school and getting hooked. I think I saw all your videos within two days. I remember watching the video when you decided to quit your job and pursue RUclips and photography full time and getting so inspired. Last year has been full of ups and downs for me and I am currently unemployed. But your story has motivated me to not sit idle by, but to pursue bettering myself with the free time I have. I am starting a carpentry business and have done a couple of small pieces for friends. If you ever want a desk or coffee table let me know. I would love this camera to shoot videos and pictures of my work to post on scocial media. Finally put all those photography lessons from school to use. 😅
I love using my Nikon 105 VR for portraits... It's insanely sharp!
Had the 100mmm macro...sold it because my 24-70mm f4L is usm macro did exactly what it said on the tin, and with the extention tubes.......wow ;)
I live about an hour away from Toronto and the rain has been like that for most of this summer. It's so weird too because the summer was supposed to be dry
Yet another GREAT video! And yes, also guilty. I have the L series 100mm Macro and I absolutely LOVE it. Use it all the time for interviews so I don't have to shove the camera right up in people's faces.
You know what u the best tutor in my life coz till the day u started your vlogs there was no one who can teach me a thing about camera about lens abt the panning abt the angle about the sound in a video like how imp and how much does it matters and many more . Thanks alot peter to be tutor or a teacher like you n guess what today is A teacher days in india...
And I wish you a warm Teacher's day. ✌️🤗 Keep goin and stay blessed.
I've had the non L Ef version for almost 2 yrs now! I am in love with it. HUGE interest in Macro! It's so cool to know that I have a piece of gear just like yours!! I have horribly shaky hands so I can't get too much with it handheld sadly. Saving up for the updated model! Thanks for showing that it can be used for video. Just branching into video so I am glad to know I can use my current gear!!
I have a 100mm macro and I use it for shallow depth of field shots and portraits more than anything else.
I couldn't agree more! I use it for everything for cooking videos and telling stories
Crazy storm last night in Kitchener!
I've been shooting for a year. Been figuring out what I like shooting best and what my style is. I shoot close up the most it seems but don't even own a Macro yet lol. Ive bought a zoom, prime and ultra wide lens now I'm too broke to buy a Macro haha. IRONY at its best. I still get good close ups with my prime and zoom.
Sick rain bro! I totally agree, I loved using the Canon 100mm L-series glass and it's one of the next few lenses I will buy. So versatile and such a good price for an L-series lens.
i have the lecia-r 100m Macro. Most amazing lens I rarely use.
Gabe .Video I guess you don't have a tilt shift or fisheye then 😂
Man I just returned my Panasonic 30mm macro lens to B&H because I wasn't using it as much as I initially thought I would. I wanted it for sneaker video but it didn't pan out. It is f/2.8 and I figured it would be a better investment if I bought a faster lens so I am getting the Leica 25mm f/1.4 to go along with my Panasonic GH5. Congrats on the 1mil subscribers man! Much success to you!!!! #KEEPGOING
I shoot mostly with my Sony 90mm Macro lens. Unless I need that ultra wide, then I switch to 12-24 or 24-105. But, macro lenses are so damn sharp it was the best lens purchase.
Canon 100mm Macro L was my favorite but I also love the Canon 135mm L. Awesome video Peter! Thank you so much!
I was thinking since many days of such videos. Even now I saw a recipe show and said to myself how do they do it?
I suddenly found my answer without even trying.
Thanks 😊
100mm L is my next lens, primarily for food photography! Love it.
Love it! Thank you. I live shooting tiny things close up. It’s fascinating! I no longer kill even the smallest of bugs, after I took a close up of of a teeny spider. The eyes were so amazing, cute, alive, I’ve not looked at a bug the same since.
I have totally been eyeing the 100mm macro for a while...definitley need it now!
Favorite part about this video are the rain b-roll🌧☔️🤗 I'm a sucker for rain and rain sound
Am a fan of macro photography. Love it.
Great work Peter
Totally picked up the L series lens pretty much because of this video. Really dig your videos Pete! Keep it up!
I totally agree with you. I use my macro lens for everything!
Love the fact that I find myself asking questions and the next day or two later you post a video on exactly what I was thinking of. MAGIC? Thank you Peter! So helpful.
I recently got the 60mm 2.8 Macro and I also use that lens for almost everything. Glad to know I kinda made the right choice. Thanks Peter for your videos!
The ending was super peaceful! Great short video.
Those shoots were just mind blowing, Pete you are just awesome.
New to your channel. I really like these 2 min Tuesdays. I seem to have A D D when it comes to a video longer than 10 mins. 😬 In addition to that I seemed to have had it when it came to even thinking about doing macro photography. However! There has been a break through and I recently purchased a macro lens. It is very fascinating and I also use it for regular photography like you mentioned in this vlog. So cool. Congrats on your one mill btw. That's pretty amazing.
I really would love a macro lens, get up close but didn't realize its other quality's, cheers for this Pete 👌
I've had a macro lens in my bag for a long time but almost never pulled it out until I watched this. I'll definitely be exploring it a bit more now. Thanks for another great video!
for my graphics design course i borrowed my brothers company camera and they only have a macro lense with their nikon d5500, and i was able to take every type of photo required + more. They work amazing (if you know how to use them)
