Accurate if you have a full frame. It'll work for crop sensor's too I guess, but I have the 50mm f1.8 and the 17-55mm 2.8 designed for crop sensors. I have a garbage telephoto too, but the other 2 are amazing for my Canon SL2.
@@simplydusty330 17mm f/1.8 or f/1.2 (both from Olympus) for the 35mm 12-35mm f/2.8 (panasonic) or 12-40mm f/2.8 (Oly) for the 24-70mm 35-100mm f/2.8 (pana) or better 40-150mm f/2.8 (Oly) for the 70-200mm
It very much depends on what type of photography someone does. For me I do landscape and wildlife, especially birds. So I have 4 lenses which covers me from 10mm right up to 600mm, as I am using a crop sensor camera it is actually 15mm right through to 900mm ff equivalent. My lenses are 10-20mm, 18-55mm 70-300mm and 150-600mm. The first two lenses are great for landscape, while the other two zooms are great for wildlife. But I sometimes use the zooms for landscape when I only want to catch just part of a scene, as I can bring the viewers attention to one part rather that the whole thing. The 70-300 is great for wide open landscape to capture parts of it or for wildlife especially larger animals even at quite a distance, so a very versatile lens that can cover many situations. The 150-600 is my go to wildlife lens, especially for small birds and animals that are considerable distances away. But I sometimes use it for landscape, such as capturing part of a mountain peak or a valley, allowing me to really bring in just part of the scene but in great detail. With those 4 lenses I really can capture anything whether it be really close up or a long way away. While the 150-600mm lens is a monster of a lens I usually use that the most as 70% of my photography is wildlife, but I carry all 4 lenses with me most of the time. You never know what you might come across and may need to change lenses.
I know everyone raves about and declares that a 24-70mm f2.8 is a must, but I’m super happy with my 24-105mm f4. Yes you lose some benefits of a wider aperture, but the Sony version has great appearing bokeh and I find myself ok with what it lacks vs what I gain with that little bit of extra reach, which is something I’m always frustrated with when using a 24-70. And when you’re zoomed in to like 70mm and higher for portraits and other subjects, that blown out background looks just as good as most other lenses! All in all, I like their versatility of the 24-105 and find ways to compensate for what it lacks. Also, I’ve found like like 50mm > 35mm all day! Great video though, mahalo!
A year(ish) ago I bought the Canon 70-200 2.8 Mk III. I have since scarcely removed it from my camera. I am constantly amazed at the razor sharp quality of the images it produces and the versatility of it. I LOVE this lens so very much and use it for almost everything. It is truly a workhorse of a lens!
I"ve had the Mk I for a decade or so and it's awesome. I've also got the 2x teleconverter that works pretty well. I use it more than all my other lenses combined, but with the 24-105mm f4L I've got on order, that may change. The main issue I had with it initially was the way that it stood out.
You are by far the only Photographer who speaks my language. You made so much sense. Every word you said, in this video is exactly what I been trying to comprehend. A million Thank you!!!!!
The kind of lens you need depends on what you want to shoot. Period. So you might need some very compact and lightweight stuff for street photography like a pancake lens, an even faster zoom lens for sports or a big aperture prime lens for night shootings or a fast prime lens of middle zoom range for portraits. Wildlife photographers might look out for gear that is waterproof. Astronomers will reach out for reflecting telescopes. Divers also need different gear and for some a GoPro style video camera is the thing they need. But I agree that most cases are covered with your choice. On the other hand, you might involve the help of a camera dealer to give you a recommendation and you can try some lenses to find what suits best. Working with your gear enables you to see the limitations of each lens and with more experience you might know better what choice you want to make.
I eventually chose the 70-200 f4 IS L above the 2.8. With the reason the F4 lens is much lighter (like the half compared to the F2.8), cheaper and in combination with the Eos 6D i can lift up the ISO when light gets lower. Yes the bokeh will be less buttery but can still be awesome!
Whats in my bag is the budget versions: == > 24mm 2.8 STM Pancake / 50MM 1.8 STM / 17-55mm 2.8 IS USM / 55-250mm STM . I actually owned a 70-200 F4 IS L, but the 55-250 kicked its arse in sharpness (seriously), so I sold it. The 70-200 2.8 is a BEAST of a lens! Definitely not travel friendly! Borrowed one from a buddy of mine. OMG! I renewed my gym membership after using it reminded me that I had no upper body strength!
Here are some ideas for EF full frame: A. 24-70mm 2.8L II (general purpose, very sharp) 85mm 1.2L II (great for portraits) 100-400mm 4.5-5.6L IS II (macro, subject isolation at 400mm, great reach) B. 24-35mm 2.0 Art (very sharp, fast at 2.0) 50mm 1.2L (very artistic) 70-200mm 2.8L IS III (good for portraits, good reach, some macro, very sharp) C. 16-35mm 2.8L III (ultra wide for vlogging, artistic, stars) 24-70mm 2.8L II (general purpose, very sharp) 70-200mm 2.8L IS III (good for portraits, good reach, some macro, very sharp) D. 24mm 1.4L II (group portraits, wide look, very sharp) 50mm 1.2L (very artistic) 135mm 2.0L (fantastic for portraits, very sharp, reach) In any case would always pick a high megapixel full frame camera, switchable to a APS-C crop mode with at least 10 megapixels, for additional flexibility.
i want to buy 55-250 mm lens is it good for begginer as telephoto lens? i am from indonesia i think the 70-200 mm is too expensive for me like the price is as expensive as my camera ( canon 250d)
LOL - I thought you were going to say the 3 zooms. Good for you going a different path. My first lens for my Sony A7 was the 35 1.4. It's a great focal length. I know people like the nifty 50 and there is nothing wrong with it, the 35 just worked for me as a single lens. Now that I have the 16-35, I sold the 35 prime and got the 85 1.2. I agree the 70-200 2.8 is another versatile lens. I know many people recommend the F4 version, especially for landscape. It's a lot lighter to carry. But the 2.8 just allows you to use it in more situations.
Everyone is different. I love my 75mm equivalent. I guess having some zooms and complementing it with one prime that best suits your individual preference (be it 35, 50 or 75) is the way to go.
Lenses for every photographer, even beginners, the lenses you advised are indeed excellent. We have to consider lenses as a long term investment, but for someone starting out this is way over the top. Canon lenses to consider (in my humble opinion) FF equivalents: Canon primes the nifty 50 from Canon for the price an excellent lens. The lens that was given for free when you bought a SLR in the past century. (Canon 85mm f/1.8 EF a great lens for portraits and lower light situations.) Canon 35mm f/2.0 IS USM less expensive than the Sigma, you loose a stop and you have IS, the Sigma 35mm Art is a faster lens but AF can be quirky on some Canon bodies. zoom lenses The 24-70mm f/2.8 is expensive,. An essential lens for event photography, even for landscape. The 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS arguably one of the best lenses around, the latest incarnation costs around 2300€... If you are more into landscape than events i would suggest the f/4.0 version, less bockehlissious but roughly 1/3thd of the weight, for landscape and even events f/4.0 is sufficient and for weddings you have the bride and groom into focus...For landscape you will stop down to f/8.0- f/11, so what is the point of carrying a 1.6kg beast. You can use third party zooms like e.g. Tamron but CaNikon lenses hold their value more. In the case you want to quit it is less painful... With Regards
Try the Sigma 50 - 100mm f1.8 it's an apsc lens n the closest you'll get to a true 70 - 200 in terms of quality. The only thing is you'll be a little short at the long end at a fullframe equivalent of around 160mm.
@@scallen3841 I'm not sure what you're saying - I *appreciate* that he calls out the focal lengths with APS-C crop in mind so that we *can* get the comparable focal lengths.
@@rewdotkim Lol it's cool use what lens you want , you do you . Just because it's said on the the tube doesn't make it the gospel or written in stone .
Great advice Sawyer. I have all those ranges covered. In addition, I use a Sigma 10-20mm f3.5 Wide Angle Lens which is great for landscapes. In addition, I use a Canon 24mm f2.8 STM 'Pancake' Lens which is a great 'walk around' lens for Canon Crop Sensor Cameras.
My Canon ef 24-105 mmL f4 use it for everything. And my 100mm L macro f2.8 My 17-40mm L And my 70-200 mm L f4. The backgrounds are very blurry . By the way the f2.8 is sooo ecpencive. I am working as a pro so I do choose the lenses for me and my clients are very happy with the results. I am a landscape and nature photograoher. I get the results I want. With the f4 lenses I have. Not everyone needs an f2.8 lens. And not everyone is as rich as you are. Good lenses thou. F4 does the jobb just as well as the f2.8. Only a nicer price.
What if you wanna climb a mountain but carrying a full frame + 24-70 is just far to heavy for a amateur photographer. Any alternative lightweight lenses for landscape?
my to go lens is a 50 mm 1.8: much sharper than the sharpest zoom lens, much lighter, much nicer blurry background, much more light at night, much less flare when shooting sunsets, etc. Just zoom with your feet; just shoot landscapes with panorama merging. I got rid of all my excessive gear; I lost a lot of money when selling second hand,; but I got a lot of money left to spend on traveling Traveling so light: a completely new photography feeling: one camera, one lens, no lens changing, no dust on the sensor, Back to basics ... real Zen photography And; ... shooting with a 50 mm: your photos always look right
Yes I find I tend to like just grabbing one lens for the day and using it. I also only use f4 zooms cause they are smaller and lighter. I love putting on an old legacy lens like an old 35 or 50 1.4 and just shooting everything in sight. Def like going light over having every focal length in my bag.
To work out the equivalent you need to divide by the crop factor, so for APS-C it is around 45-135mm or so. My Canon M50 came with a 15-45 (24-72 equiv) and a 55-200 (88-320 equiv), and I bought the 22mm f2 prime lens (which is equivalent to 35mm f3.2). It's a compact little setup, but of course you're not going to get the same results as a proper full frame setup.
I don’t need a 35 when I have a Tamron 24-70 2.8. It is a great lens for landscapes as well. I also have a Canon 50 1.8, Canon 70-200 2.8 is ll, Canon 85 1.8 and a Canon 100 2.8 macro with a 5D Mark IV. Took me years to get all of this (separately) because I’m poor and my husband hates me 🤷🏽♀️
Your husband is wrong ... well, always wrong, except this time : with the 50 1.8 you could do 90 percent of your photography; all the reest for 10 percent ?????
Bought a Sony A7iii last year and got the 24-105 f4 for my every day walk around lens. It’s great for the travel and landscape photos that I shoot. Late last year I picked up the 16-35 f2.8 which I’m loving for landscape and some neat street shots. Next up, instead of the 70-200, will be the 100-400 for some wildlife and compressed landscape shots. Also looking at the 90mm macro for portrait and macro. That should give me complete versatility and leave me broke but still married😄.
Current set up I love canon 24mm f1.4L II 50mm f 1.4 24-70mm f2.8 L 70-200mm f2.8L Wide angles are crisp on the 24mm and night shots dance shots with a bounce are awesome. 50 portraits feet waist up are awesome 24-70mm save you time and can get every shot if everything is more faster pace and don’t have to worry if in tight areas. 70-200mm is nice to be farther away some people don’t like cameras being close to them and for portraits you would be very surprised. Also for ta ceremony darker light the 2.8 factor makes it with ease and sometime people don’t want you so close during certain moments.
Mario Subasic Media Thank you for the suggestion!!! I JUST ordered one about two minutes ago! I was contemplating over it over the past few days and I could't get your comment out of my head. I can't wait to see what kind of pictures I get from it! I've wanted the Sigma 18-35mm f1.8 (uhhhmmm gorgeous blurred background anyone?) but it is not really in my budget, so hopefully I can get something similar from this lens!
I've watched a few vids to help me understand the types of lenses available (I'm only starting out with a Sony A6000) and this is the first video that has helped me understand. Thank you!!
I too recently started my digital photography journey on the a6000. If you wouldnt mind me asking, what lenses did you opt to go with? I have a small collection going on atm >.>
@@danlightened I was only asking a question from the aspect of curiosity, not knowledge. I use prime lenses for my creation, thank you for your suggestion.
@@drakeb6168 Yeah I'm just saying, anyone who 'recently started their photographic journey' should get something like a 70-200mm in addition to their 18-55mm kit lens. And then maybe a 50mm prime just cause it's amazing quality for cheap.
@@danlightened I guess maybe it would be important to mention I started out on a film camera like 15 years ago and dropped the hobby in high school because they required a digital camera that I did not have the funds at the time to obtain. I have a 25, 30, 50 and 135 mm lens in my kit and each are prime lenses. The only AF I have is the 30mm yet the 50mm is my primary on my a6500
If you get the f4 variants of these lenses than it comes out way cheaper. I got a 70-200 f4 IS for $400. The extra stop of light isn’t needed really and the out of focus background is still amazing and the lens is super sharp.
Id watch out for some of the older sigmas i had a 150-500 sigma it had worse iq than my kit telephoto lens the new art, contemporary and sport lenses are all great choices though. Dont know about the tamron they do also have some decent lenses
Adrián Haz Peter C I had an f/4 and hated the crap out of it! Couldn’t wait to sell it, but everyone is different 🤷🏽♀️ I have a Canon camera, but purchased a Tamron 24-70 2.8 ... man that thing is a beast! It’s way cheaper than Canon’s 24-70
Great Video. I do have on question. I thinking to buy the Sigma 24mm f1.4 and because I have an Apsc Camera (sonya6300) it should be equal to 35mm right ? What do you think of this combo ?
Hobbyist here...Just upgraded from a 50D to an R6 (it's been a while...the 50D was a great upgrade from point and shoot). The R6 came with a kit lens (24-105/ f4-7.1). I purchased the RF 24-70 f2.8 at the same time. I completely agree...this is the lens that will cover almost anything beautifully. Fixed and fast will be the next purchase. Any opinions of the RF 50mm f1.2...too fast? Also, with a new mirrorless body, would you invest in 2nd hand EF primes?
i loooove that video because it confirmed exactly my strategy i currently made in deciding wich are the lenses i'm going to buy for my first full frame camera. The only little different is: i do rather landscapes then portraits (vacation fotographer) and i think about an tamron sp 15-30 mm or a single prime lense around 18 mm (Zeiss Batis 2.8). Probably my set up will look like this (one day/ all will be second hand lenses): - Tamron SP 15-30 mm F/2.8 - Canon EF 24-70 mm F/2.8 L II USM (a good alternativ is by the way Sigma 24 - 105mm / f4 DG OS HSM ART imo if you dont like to shot with a tele but i want to) - Canon EF 70-200mm F/2.8L IS II USM (just realized how much cheaper it is then the sony 70-200 mm F/2.8 GM. i'm shocked.) of course i need an adapter, but it is much cheaper in total then buying new lenses for the camera i recently got. and i spend seriously days on doing researches wich lense provides the best quality in relation to the cost and wich lenses are generelly available on the second hand market. to be true... i didnt think about about a 35 mm before but after i saw the pictures i got seriously interested in a 35 mm as well :D.... even if i wanted to limit my set to three lenses.
Sony 70-200 f/2.8 is 2500€ currently, I think, it's disgusting. I inherited some Nikon Glass (exactly your combo) and now looking to buy a Z6 because it's cheaper than getting a 2.8/70-200 on Sony.
@@VisaxLP currently you get it for about 2.000 € used or as a "grey import" from hongkong or where ever it comes from. this is still a lot of money but you will get a perfect lense for the money. all test and reviews say that the picture quality is amazingly high. but i also will take the canon 70-200 2.8 first as it costs the half of the sony. if more of the sony's are on the second hand market i will take it. i am willing to pay about 1.400 € for it in a good condition. i guess in 3-4 years it will reach that price. as a professional there is no reason to buy this instandly imo.
That was very helpful! Thank you! The appearance of this in my suggested videos was nearly perfectly timed. I'm currently in a position of being able to upgrade my Canon Rebel T3i kit lenses. I've already purchased a 50mm prime f1.8 though. I received it yesterday. I might've chosen differently if I had seen this video last week.
I always her about the 50mm 1.2/1.4/1.8 Primes as a necessity. It's interesting you brought up the 1.4 35mm. I keep Hearing about the 16-35mm 2.8 Canon L as a really good one to have. What about the super wides like 10-22mm 3.5-4.5 USM or 8-16mm Fisheye? What's your opinion on Super Telephoto zooms for birds and wildlife? (For those of use that can't afford telephoto primes)
Since I shoot on a crop sensor camera my go-to lens has become the Sigma 18-35mm f1.8. For a crop sensor camera it basically does the job of the first two lenses that you recommend combined... With a couple small caveats. Personally I also use my 10-18mm Canon lens quite a bit for shooting cars.
Hey! Since it’s been 2 years lmao how did the sigma lense aged? People have been saying that with time it’s gets really wacky and I’ve been thinking about buying the sigma art 24-70mm but i don’t really know
Yes! Make sure you try it out on your camera first! Some lenses can have defects like scratches, mechanical issues, or mold which will affect your photos so make sure that it doesn't have any of that and you should be good!
Well i love taking pictures and I'm not a photographer but i like taking pictures of my family and friends and i wanted to know the difference between full frame and crop sensor camera? I keep hearing people talk about full frame cameras i wanted to get one bit before i doni wanted to hear your opinion on that camera. But you said to get 17-50 and 22mm and the 70-200 or 70-300 telephonto lens i want to buy the 80d and the 70d and a full frame camera but i was told to just stick with the crop sensor cameras if im not going to have a career into photography i just want some nice camera lens that's going to make my pictures nice and sharp
I checked this video out to compare notes. As it turns out, my top 3 lenses (I shoot with a 7D; a 1.6x crop) are a 17-50 f/2.8 (27-80 equivalent); a 30mm f/1.4, and a 70-200 f/2.8. The reason I chose those particular lenses was for shooting fighting- boxing, kickboxing and MMA. The only other lens I currently own is a 28-300, just for personal projects that don't require a lot of precision or require me to carry extra lenses.
I agree with your review but I can't afford the lenses you suggested so I use the Canon EF 24-70 f/4L IS , 35 f/2 IS and the 70-200 f/4L along with a few other lenses. Once I go mirrorless I may sell the EF lenses and get a couple of fast f/2.8 lenses to see what I've been missing.
24-105 F4, the added compression at 105mm gives you similar results as the 24-70 F2.8. (tried both, the difference is less than the price, for sure). F4 is not such a big challenge anymore, with the wonderful ISO performance these days.
I'm kind of curious why folks go 24-70mm on these lists rather than 24-105mm. Sure, it isn't quite as wide, but it is wide enough and doesn't necessitate swapping lenses at 70mm as often.

Is a canon 80d full frame??? I like doing newborns and families/maternity etc, will a 24-70mm be okay for those??? I just have the basic lens that came with the camera l, which is 18-135mm. Hopefully I get a response before you because I need help choosing which one would be best.
Yeah he must not do landscapes I mean seriously that’s ridiculous. Yeah I’m gonna do landscapes with a go pro. Lose that 24-70 and get a 16-35 for landscapes. Thank me later.
Honestly, I don’t think you should own any of these. Perhaps you should. It comes done to one thing, and one thing only: self awareness of your style. For example, I shoot 95% of my work with a 24mm... a lot will say I shouldn’t but why not? I like it. The other 5% is with a 50mm. I even shoot hockey games with it, but that’s because I don’t like to capture these ultra close up shots. So I’d say, know your style and then adapt your gear to it. :) maybe just get a decent 24-70, shoot with it for a few months and see what focal length you like the most, get that prime. Idk, just some thoughts, maybe it brings some value to some.

@@simplydusty330 17mm f/1.8 or f/1.2 (both from Olympus) for the 35mm

35-100mm f/2.8 (pana) or better 40-150mm f/2.8 (Oly) for the 70-200mm
It very much depends on what type of photography someone does. For me I do landscape and wildlife, especially birds. So I have 4 lenses which covers me from 10mm right up to 600mm, as I am using a crop sensor camera it is actually 15mm right through to 900mm ff equivalent. My lenses are 10-20mm, 18-55mm 70-300mm and 150-600mm. The first two lenses are great for landscape, while the other two zooms are great for wildlife. But I sometimes use the zooms for landscape when I only want to catch just part of a scene, as I can bring the viewers attention to one part rather that the whole thing. The 70-300 is great for wide open landscape to capture parts of it or for wildlife especially larger animals even at quite a distance, so a very versatile lens that can cover many situations. The 150-600 is my go to wildlife lens, especially for small birds and animals that are considerable distances away. But I sometimes use it for landscape, such as capturing part of a mountain peak or a valley, allowing me to really bring in just part of the scene but in great detail. With those 4 lenses I really can capture anything whether it be really close up or a long way away. While the 150-600mm lens is a monster of a lens I usually use that the most as 70% of my photography is wildlife, but I carry all 4 lenses with me most of the time. You never know what you might come across and may need to change lenses.
This was extremely helpful for me. I'm pretty amateur and learning my way around the specifics in photography so thank you.
I know everyone raves about and declares that a 24-70mm f2.8 is a must, but I’m super happy with my 24-105mm f4. Yes you lose some benefits of a wider aperture, but the Sony version has great appearing bokeh and I find myself ok with what it lacks vs what I gain with that little bit of extra reach, which is something I’m always frustrated with when using a 24-70. And when you’re zoomed in to like 70mm and higher for portraits and other subjects, that blown out background looks just as good as most other lenses! All in all, I like their versatility of the 24-105 and find ways to compensate for what it lacks.
Also, I’ve found like like 50mm > 35mm all day! Great video though, mahalo!
A year(ish) ago I bought the Canon 70-200 2.8 Mk III. I have since scarcely removed it from my camera. I am constantly amazed at the razor sharp quality of the images it produces and the versatility of it. I LOVE this lens so very much and use it for almost everything. It is truly a workhorse of a lens!
I"ve had the Mk I for a decade or so and it's awesome. I've also got the 2x teleconverter that works pretty well. I use it more than all my other lenses combined, but with the 24-105mm f4L I've got on order, that may change.
The main issue I had with it initially was the way that it stood out.
I wish you had put a link to each of the lens in the description. Great videos each and every time
You are by far the only Photographer who speaks my language. You made so much sense. Every word you said, in this video is exactly what I been trying to comprehend. A million Thank you!!!!!
The kind of lens you need depends on what you want to shoot. Period. So you might need some very compact and lightweight stuff for street photography like a pancake lens, an even faster zoom lens for sports or a big aperture prime lens for night shootings or a fast prime lens of middle zoom range for portraits. Wildlife photographers might look out for gear that is waterproof. Astronomers will reach out for reflecting telescopes. Divers also need different gear and for some a GoPro style video camera is the thing they need. But I agree that most cases are covered with your choice. On the other hand, you might involve the help of a camera dealer to give you a recommendation and you can try some lenses to find what suits best. Working with your gear enables you to see the limitations of each lens and with more experience you might know better what choice you want to make.
Started as a hobby. Always learn something with your videos. Thanks
Your channel’s intro!! Hands down!! 🙌One of the best intros I have seen in such a long time!!
I eventually chose the 70-200 f4 IS L above the 2.8. With the reason the F4 lens is much lighter (like the half compared to the F2.8), cheaper and in combination with the Eos 6D i can lift up the ISO when light gets lower. Yes the bokeh will be less buttery but can still be awesome!
I got me the 24-105mm - most people call it a kit lens but honestly I use it way more than anything. Just so handy
Noealz Photo completely agree I have the Sony 24-105 f4 and it’s a beast. Not to mention it’s $1000 cheaper than the 24-70 2.8
Whats in my bag is the budget versions: == >
24mm 2.8 STM Pancake / 50MM 1.8 STM / 17-55mm 2.8 IS USM / 55-250mm STM . I actually owned a 70-200 F4 IS L, but the 55-250 kicked its arse in sharpness (seriously), so I sold it. The 70-200 2.8 is a BEAST of a lens! Definitely not travel friendly! Borrowed one from a buddy of mine. OMG! I renewed my gym membership after using it reminded me that I had no upper body strength!
Just got into photgraphy and love learning about it. I just found your videos and the way you teach is really easy to follow. Thank you.
My lens lineup - 16-35 covers the 35mm range w/ wide angle shots (no need for go pro). 85 1.8 portrait and b-roll. 70-200 f4 for landscape zoom.
Here are some ideas for EF full frame:
A.
24-70mm 2.8L II (general purpose, very sharp)
85mm 1.2L II (great for portraits)
100-400mm 4.5-5.6L IS II (macro, subject isolation at 400mm, great reach)
B.
24-35mm 2.0 Art (very sharp, fast at 2.0)
50mm 1.2L (very artistic)
70-200mm 2.8L IS III (good for portraits, good reach, some macro, very sharp)
C.
16-35mm 2.8L III (ultra wide for vlogging, artistic, stars)
24-70mm 2.8L II (general purpose, very sharp)
70-200mm 2.8L IS III (good for portraits, good reach, some macro, very sharp)
D.
24mm 1.4L II (group portraits, wide look, very sharp)
50mm 1.2L (very artistic)
135mm 2.0L (fantastic for portraits, very sharp, reach)
In any case would always pick a high megapixel full frame camera, switchable to a APS-C crop mode with at least 10 megapixels, for additional flexibility.
You are appreciated!
i want to buy 55-250 mm lens is it good for begginer as telephoto lens? i am from indonesia i think the 70-200 mm is too expensive for me like the price is as expensive as my camera ( canon 250d)
LOL - I thought you were going to say the 3 zooms. Good for you going a different path. My first lens for my Sony A7 was the 35 1.4. It's a great focal length. I know people like the nifty 50 and there is nothing wrong with it, the 35 just worked for me as a single lens. Now that I have the 16-35, I sold the 35 prime and got the 85 1.2.
I agree the 70-200 2.8 is another versatile lens. I know many people recommend the F4 version, especially for landscape. It's a lot lighter to carry. But the 2.8 just allows you to use it in more situations.
Everyone is different. I love my 75mm equivalent. I guess having some zooms and complementing it with one prime that best suits your individual preference (be it 35, 50 or 75) is the way to go.
Just actually got a Canon 5D MK3 with a 50mm f.1.8 , i went from a Fujifilm x100F to a classic full format Canon :D
my 35mm sigma prime is my favorite ..the bokah is incredible , insanely crisp
Lenses for every photographer, even beginners, the lenses you advised are indeed excellent.
We have to consider lenses as a long term investment, but for someone starting out this is way over the top.
Canon lenses to consider (in my humble opinion) FF equivalents:
Canon primes
the nifty 50 from Canon for the price an excellent lens. The lens that was given for free when you bought a SLR in the past century.
(Canon 85mm f/1.8 EF a great lens for portraits and lower light situations.)
Canon 35mm f/2.0 IS USM less expensive than the Sigma, you loose a stop and you have IS, the Sigma 35mm Art is a faster lens but AF can be quirky on some Canon bodies.
zoom lenses
The 24-70mm f/2.8 is expensive,. An essential lens for event photography, even for landscape.
The 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS arguably one of the best lenses around, the latest incarnation costs around 2300€... If you are more into landscape than events i would suggest the f/4.0 version, less bockehlissious but roughly 1/3thd of the weight, for landscape and even events f/4.0 is sufficient and for weddings you have the bride and groom into focus...For landscape you will stop down to f/8.0- f/11, so what is the point of carrying a 1.6kg beast.
You can use third party zooms like e.g. Tamron but CaNikon lenses hold their value more. In the case you want to quit it is less painful...
With Regards
Great video. Completely agree. I use a 35mm L prime and looking to get the 70-200 L 2.8 again.
What is the alternative of 70-200 mm for crop sensor camera?
Try the Sigma 50 - 100mm f1.8 it's an apsc lens n the closest you'll get to a true 70 - 200 in terms of quality. The only thing is you'll be a little short at the long end at a fullframe equivalent of around 160mm.
Or even the Sony 70-350mm
I appreciate that you include focal lengths for APS-C bodies, as a lot of us still shoot with those - thank you!
Ok so why not go get the len s that are made for the crop sensor
@@scallen3841 I'm not sure what you're saying - I *appreciate* that he calls out the focal lengths with APS-C crop in mind so that we *can* get the comparable focal lengths.
@@rewdotkim Do you use and own a camera ?
@@scallen3841 yes.
@@rewdotkim Lol it's cool use what lens you want , you do you . Just because it's said on the the tube doesn't make it the gospel or written in stone .
Great advice Sawyer. I have all those ranges covered. In addition, I use a Sigma 10-20mm f3.5 Wide Angle Lens which is great for landscapes. In addition, I use a Canon 24mm f2.8 STM 'Pancake' Lens which is a great 'walk around' lens for Canon Crop Sensor Cameras.
10th video I have looked at, yours is the first that speaks plainly and to the point.
My Canon ef 24-105 mmL f4 use it for everything. And my 100mm L macro f2.8
My 17-40mm L
And my 70-200 mm L f4. The backgrounds are very blurry .
By the way the f2.8 is sooo ecpencive.
I am working as a pro so I do choose the lenses for me and my clients are very happy with the results.
I am a landscape and nature photograoher. I get the results I want. With the f4 lenses I have. Not everyone needs an f2.8 lens. And not everyone is as rich as you are. Good lenses thou.
F4 does the jobb just as well as the f2.8. Only a nicer price.
What if you wanna climb a mountain but carrying a full frame + 24-70 is just far to heavy for a amateur photographer. Any alternative lightweight lenses for landscape?
my to go lens is a 50 mm 1.8: much sharper than the sharpest zoom lens, much lighter, much nicer blurry background, much more light at night, much less flare when shooting sunsets, etc.
Just zoom with your feet; just shoot landscapes with panorama merging.
I got rid of all my excessive gear; I lost a lot of money when selling second hand,; but I got a lot of money left to spend on traveling
Traveling so light: a completely new photography feeling: one camera, one lens, no lens changing, no dust on the sensor,
Back to basics ... real Zen photography
And; ... shooting with a 50 mm: your photos always look right
Also like 800$ cheaper than a 24-70
Yes I find I tend to like just grabbing one lens for the day and using it. I also only use f4 zooms cause they are smaller and lighter. I love putting on an old legacy lens like an old 35 or 50 1.4 and just shooting everything in sight. Def like going light over having every focal length in my bag.
70-200mm supposed is for fullframe and what will be equivalent for crop sensor? Great choise for these three lenses.
To work out the equivalent you need to divide by the crop factor, so for APS-C it is around 45-135mm or so. My Canon M50 came with a 15-45 (24-72 equiv) and a 55-200 (88-320 equiv), and I bought the 22mm f2 prime lens (which is equivalent to 35mm f3.2). It's a compact little setup, but of course you're not going to get the same results as a proper full frame setup.
I don’t need a 35 when I have a Tamron 24-70 2.8. It is a great lens for landscapes as well. I also have a Canon 50 1.8, Canon 70-200 2.8 is ll, Canon 85 1.8 and a Canon 100 2.8 macro with a 5D Mark IV. Took me years to get all of this (separately) because I’m poor and my husband hates me 🤷🏽♀️
Your husband is wrong ... well, always wrong, except this time : with the 50 1.8 you could do 90 percent of your photography; all the reest for 10 percent ?????
I'll be your husband and appreciate your camera gear and make sweet love to you very often.
Will your mama let you move out of her basement ?
@@fredericeeckman3002 If I poop, will you wipe me?
thanks for the tips for lenses! i also suggest a 14-24 f2.8 or f4 or even 16-35 f.4
Bought a Sony A7iii last year and got the 24-105 f4 for my every day walk around lens. It’s great for the travel and landscape photos that I shoot. Late last year I picked up the 16-35 f2.8 which I’m loving for landscape and some neat street shots. Next up, instead of the 70-200, will be the 100-400 for some wildlife and compressed landscape shots. Also looking at the 90mm macro for portrait and macro. That should give me complete versatility and leave me broke but still married😄.
Bruce Wiebe I have an iPhone 7 Plus for everything- photography and videos! No need to go so far for me !! But I live Sony 7iii, too!!
Yea, I love that combination
Current set up I love canon
24mm f1.4L II
50mm f 1.4
24-70mm f2.8 L
70-200mm f2.8L
Wide angles are crisp on the 24mm and night shots dance shots with a bounce are awesome.
50 portraits feet waist up are awesome
24-70mm save you time and can get every shot if everything is more faster pace and don’t have to worry if in tight areas.
70-200mm is nice to be farther away some people don’t like cameras being close to them and for portraits you would be very surprised. Also for ta ceremony darker light the 2.8 factor makes it with ease and sometime people don’t want you so close during certain moments.
Just wanted to remind you guys that renting an exceptional lens like the 70-200 f/2.8 is a great option for events or weddings.
What about the f4.0 variant?
@@mraacht For weddings inside it's a bit to dark.
@@rrrrrx3503 thanks

It's a PERFECT lens on cropped sensors for portraits because it becomes about an 85mm and with the 1.8 the backgrounds stay nice and blurry!
@@ZheoVerticies Yeah 50mm is awesome but if i want less cropped images, what lense should i go for?

Mario Subasic Media Thank you for the suggestion!!! I JUST ordered one about two minutes ago! I was contemplating over it over the past few days and I could't get your comment out of my head. I can't wait to see what kind of pictures I get from it! I've wanted the Sigma 18-35mm f1.8 (uhhhmmm gorgeous blurred background anyone?) but it is not really in my budget, so hopefully I can get something similar from this lens!

I've watched a few vids to help me understand the types of lenses available (I'm only starting out with a Sony A6000) and this is the first video that has helped me understand. Thank you!!
I too recently started my digital photography journey on the a6000. If you wouldnt mind me asking, what lenses did you opt to go with? I have a small collection going on atm >.>
@@drakeb6168 check out a video specific to Sony Mirrorless. Except for the kit lens, get a telephoto lens like a 70-200mm.
@@danlightened I was only asking a question from the aspect of curiosity, not knowledge. I use prime lenses for my creation, thank you for your suggestion.
@@drakeb6168 Yeah I'm just saying, anyone who 'recently started their photographic journey' should get something like a 70-200mm in addition to their 18-55mm kit lens. And then maybe a 50mm prime just cause it's amazing quality for cheap.
@@danlightened I guess maybe it would be important to mention I started out on a film camera like 15 years ago and dropped the hobby in high school because they required a digital camera that I did not have the funds at the time to obtain. I have a 25, 30, 50 and 135 mm lens in my kit and each are prime lenses. The only AF I have is the 30mm yet the 50mm is my primary on my a6500
Well, 3 lenses 4300$
Edit: let's ask for a mortgage
If you get the f4 variants of these lenses than it comes out way cheaper. I got a 70-200 f4 IS for $400. The extra stop of light isn’t needed really and the out of focus background is still amazing and the lens is super sharp.
You can also save more by buying the Tamron or Sigma versions of the lenses, they still do a fantastic job
Id watch out for some of the older sigmas i had a 150-500 sigma it had worse iq than my kit telephoto lens the new art, contemporary and sport lenses are all great choices though. Dont know about the tamron they do also have some decent lenses
@@jessepenner8262 I have the tamron 100-400 and my grandad has the 700-300 newest version and they both produce incredible quality for us

Can’t forget about the 85mm f1.2 L that is a beautiful lens
I think 1.2L is too much, sometimes can blur things that you need. It’s so expensive and heavy.
0:43 what kind of camera bag is that? I am getting more lenses this year and my backpack is already at full capacity.
Great Video. I do have on question. I thinking to buy the Sigma 24mm f1.4 and because I have an Apsc Camera (sonya6300) it should be equal to 35mm right ? What do you think of this combo ?
İt equals 36 mils and i think its really good though ı would recommend xt20 instead of 6300
Hobbyist here...Just upgraded from a 50D to an R6 (it's been a while...the 50D was a great upgrade from point and shoot). The R6 came with a kit lens (24-105/ f4-7.1). I purchased the RF 24-70 f2.8 at the same time. I completely agree...this is the lens that will cover almost anything beautifully. Fixed and fast will be the next purchase. Any opinions of the RF 50mm f1.2...too fast? Also, with a new mirrorless body, would you invest in 2nd hand EF primes?
Canon lenses 16-35mm f4 (because of is), 50mm f1.4 and 70-200mm f2.8. That’s my favourite setup
The same for me. 16-35 f4 IS (wonderfull lens!)+ 70 200 2,8 IS and the Sigma art 50
i loooove that video because it confirmed exactly my strategy i currently made in deciding wich are the lenses i'm going to buy for my first full frame camera. The only little different is: i do rather landscapes then portraits (vacation fotographer) and i think about an tamron sp 15-30 mm or a single prime lense around 18 mm (Zeiss Batis 2.8). Probably my set up will look like this (one day/ all will be second hand lenses):
- Tamron SP 15-30 mm F/2.8
- Canon EF 24-70 mm F/2.8 L II USM
(a good alternativ is by the way Sigma 24 - 105mm / f4 DG OS HSM ART imo if you dont like to shot with a tele but i want to)
- Canon EF 70-200mm F/2.8L IS II USM (just realized how much cheaper it is then the sony 70-200 mm F/2.8 GM. i'm shocked.)
of course i need an adapter, but it is much cheaper in total then buying new lenses for the camera i recently got. and i spend seriously days on doing researches wich lense provides the best quality in relation to the cost and wich lenses are generelly available on the second hand market.
to be true... i didnt think about about a 35 mm before but after i saw the pictures i got seriously interested in a 35 mm as well :D.... even if i wanted to limit my set to three lenses.
Sony 70-200 f/2.8 is 2500€ currently, I think, it's disgusting. I inherited some Nikon Glass (exactly your combo) and now looking to buy a Z6 because it's cheaper than getting a 2.8/70-200 on Sony.
@@VisaxLP currently you get it for about 2.000 € used or as a "grey import" from hongkong or where ever it comes from. this is still a lot of money but you will get a perfect lense for the money. all test and reviews say that the picture quality is amazingly high. but i also will take the canon 70-200 2.8 first as it costs the half of the sony. if more of the sony's are on the second hand market i will take it. i am willing to pay about 1.400 € for it in a good condition. i guess in 3-4 years it will reach that price. as a professional there is no reason to buy this instandly imo.
No mention of the 85mm 1.4??
My lenses are the 70-200mm 2.8 and the 85mm 1.4. My next lens will be the 50mm 1.4.
Which would you prefer on an 80d? The sigma 35mm 1.4 or the sigma 18-35mm 1.8? Which is sharper?
if you want sharp, go 35 prime. if you want versatility, 18-35 is sharp enough
That was very helpful! Thank you! The appearance of this in my suggested videos was nearly perfectly timed. I'm currently in a position of being able to upgrade my Canon Rebel T3i kit lenses.

Dude ! I love your videos man ! Thank you for all knowledge !
Since I shoot on a crop sensor camera my go-to lens has become the Sigma 18-35mm f1.8. For a crop sensor camera it basically does the job of the first two lenses that you recommend combined... With a couple small caveats. Personally I also use my 10-18mm Canon lens quite a bit for shooting cars.

Hey! Since it’s been 2 years lmao how did the sigma lense aged? People have been saying that with time it’s gets really wacky and I’ve been thinking about buying the sigma art 24-70mm but i don’t really know

Are used lenses a good idea to buy to save some money?
Yes! Make sure you try it out on your camera first! Some lenses can have defects like scratches, mechanical issues, or mold which will affect your photos so make sure that it doesn't have any of that and you should be good!

Nice advice! ... though I'll probably ignore the f2.8 part ;)
Goodman 4525 yeah cause those are f-ing tanks and cost about the same as a tank as well. I have all f4 zooms.
I have CANON - EF 100-400/4.5-5.6 L IS II USM, Do you think will I miss CANON - EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS? especially for portrait photography.
I checked this video out to compare notes. As it turns out, my top 3 lenses (I shoot with a 7D; a 1.6x crop) are a 17-50 f/2.8 (27-80 equivalent); a 30mm f/1.4, and a 70-200 f/2.8.
The reason I chose those particular lenses was for shooting fighting- boxing, kickboxing and MMA.
The only other lens I currently own is a 28-300, just for personal projects that don't require a lot of precision or require me to carry extra lenses.
What camera is your favorite under 1500 and where did you get the 70-200 lens
Mine got to be the 16-35 f2.8, 24-105 f4 is my in my bag in case I need more reach. Though I am contemplating getting the 70-200 range for awhile now.
I agree with your review but I can't afford the lenses you suggested so I use the Canon EF 24-70 f/4L IS , 35 f/2 IS and the 70-200 f/4L along with a few other lenses. Once I go mirrorless I may sell the EF lenses and get a couple of fast f/2.8 lenses to see what I've been missing.
missing a wide angle lens like a 16-35mm?
It would be a good addition bbut i use my go pro usually! or do photo stitching with a 24 for the few wides
I use that 10-20mm for still landscape photography (sun set) and sometimes I use fisheye too.
For potrait the 10-20mm looks distorted
I have the 16-35mm f2.8 and the 70-200 f2.8. Based on these, what prime would you suggest and why? 35mm, 50mm or 85mm?
24-105 F4, the added compression at 105mm gives you similar results as the 24-70 F2.8. (tried both, the difference is less than the price, for sure). F4 is not such a big challenge anymore, with the wonderful ISO performance these days.
I'm kind of curious why folks go 24-70mm on these lists rather than 24-105mm. Sure, it isn't quite as wide, but it is wide enough and doesn't necessitate swapping lenses at 70mm as often.
Does the last telephoto lens work and fit on the Canon Rebel T7?
The Canon 100mm Macro lens is by far the sharpest lens I’ve seen and my favorite lens to use for portraits and traveling photography
I have that in my setup and it's excellent for product and portrait photography
The older 180L has a better resolution, also the 135 TS-E. The MTF charts showing this as well. Try them if you want a more sharp lens.
Great video. Totally agree with your focal length choices and reason.
I went for the 24-70 2.8 - 50 1.2 - 70-200 2.8
I have a crop sensor. Rebel t5. My lens are a prime 24mm 10-18. 18-55. 55-250 plus extension tubes.

You have great hair. Mine waved goodbye years ago. I might be a little bit jealous.
I’m now going to go and have an awesome day. Thanks.
Sigma 18-35 1.8 art. One of the finest pieces of glass I've ever used. Porcupine sharp and with no CA, even very close to wide open.
Hey! Since it’s been 2 years lmao how did the sigma lense aged? People have been saying that with time it’s gets really wacky and I’ve been thinking about buying the sigma art 24-70mm but i don’t really know
0:20 one of the most spectacular intro's I ever seen.
What would you recommend for canon rebel t7 body? I've heard great things with the 100mm and 24-70mm or 28-70mm. I want to do portraits and brand shoots
I just came from your live stream on instagram and wanted to say I’ve been watching your video for 7years now and so happy that your channel is growing I remember you having less than 5K subscribers and now nearly 2mill! 💛💛 so yeah i feel like a proud sister from Saudi Arabia 😂💛
Holy crap that was a long time ago!
Do you have a website? How do I get a list of future workshops?
Will guess before having watched the video. 16-35, 24-70 & 70-200?
I have been waiting for this type of video!!! I hope everything with packing and traveling works out... Are you taking the car?
hahaha I am :)
i have the 24-70, 35 F1.4 but a 135F2. i prefer the faster lens as compare to 70-200 F2.8
and i dont mind walking abit to compose...
Is a canon 80d full frame??? I like doing newborns and families/maternity etc, will a 24-70mm be okay for those??? I just have the basic lens that came with the camera l, which is 18-135mm. Hopefully I get a response before you because I need help choosing which one would be best.
from instagram live my dude💛
THanks for coming over Logan!!!
Can you shoot sports with the 70-200mm 2.8 ?
5:25 "Instead of carrying a superwide for landscapes use your phone / GoPro". LMAO
almost stopped the video right there...
Holly cow lol he didn't just say that did he. "Rewinds" oh he did
Yeah he must not do landscapes I mean seriously that’s ridiculous. Yeah I’m gonna do landscapes with a go pro. Lose that 24-70 and get a 16-35 for landscapes. Thank me later.
Excuse me, but nothing beat the power of a 10-18mm lens for landascapes.
What do u think about the 70-200f2.8 Tamron lenss?
I have 90d canon..crop... what is best ff for a new camera? O mirror less?
Two minutes 25 seconds before he gets to the point!
sorry brah long winded
@@sawyerhartman I thought you covered it nicely
So what's the brand and model of your travel bag?
Honestly, I don’t think you should own any of these. Perhaps you should. It comes done to one thing, and one thing only: self awareness of your style. For example, I shoot 95% of my work with a 24mm... a lot will say I shouldn’t but why not? I like it. The other 5% is with a 50mm. I even shoot hockey games with it, but that’s because I don’t like to capture these ultra close up shots. So I’d say, know your style and then adapt your gear to it. :) maybe just get a decent 24-70, shoot with it for a few months and see what focal length you like the most, get that prime. Idk, just some thoughts, maybe it brings some value to some.
Thats a brilliant idea about figuring out ur preferred focal length!
Excatly justify the purchase , don't just but the lens to have . Know what your going to be shooting with it and why .
Hey awesome video.
I'm planning to buy Canon 90D.
Which 3 lenses would you suggest for it
