You all prolly dont care at all but does someone know of a trick to log back into an instagram account? I was dumb lost my password. I would love any help you can give me
I own both and I agree 100% with this review. I'm currently flying back home from Cancun and had limited space for lenses... so I literally spent time performing a very similar experiment with both lenses before EASILY settling on the Canon. Thumbs up!
You’re so professional and well prepared, it’s a pleasure to see your videos. Sometimes other photography’s ones are so slow and hard to follow, yours are never boring and always so pleasant to listen to! This video is art and we can obviously see the effort you put in it. Thank you so so much! An Italian fan
I got the yongnuo mainly cause of the price, i'm a poor student and just do this as a hobby. I mostly don't use autofocus but manual with peaking, so thats okay. Maybe i'll upgrade one day.
Then you REALLY REALLY Need to look into adapted lens, m42 and I love MD mount... Helios, Minolta ect... You will hit gold and make mind blowing images
Honestly, this video is damn good, the vibe, comparison, everything, but I wondered why it is underrated. Anyway, I learned so much. Thank you Paul. (Watching from Philippines)
I have had the Canon version I, II and STM. The Yongnuo is a little bit better than the Canon I & II. STM is a different formula and coating, it also focus 10cm closer. In my opinion YN is the best option for begginers on a budget. There are 2 versions of the YN 50 1.8, newer one has a metallic mount.-
Great video! I shot with the 50mm Yongnuo for a few years and completely agree with this review/comparison. I used it primarily with friends and family. I have used it for professional gigs once or twice, but it can require a LOT of editing in post. I no longer feel comfortable using it professionally for all of the reasons listed in the video. (I’ve tried EVERYTHING to prevent these problems over the years with no luck. They only occur when I use the Yongnuo lens.) If you want sharp, high-quality images without bleeding colors, go with the Cannon. If you’re just starting out and want to use the lens for practice or personal use, you’ll be fine with the Yongnuo. I’ve got some beautiful images out of it, but it doesn’t compare to a Canon lens in quality. Edit: to be fair, a lot of the problems I have with my Yongnuo lens may be hard for people who aren’t photographers to notice (e.g. my family and friends). As a photographer, I catch every detail, especially after using it for so long.
I think the Yongnuo might be a better "cinema lens" on a budget. Cinematography doesn't require super sharp detail. In fact cheap lenses can add some character.
Monday im getting the stm,my first nifty fifty! , im using a 700d for my first aproach to photografy, thanks to your channel im getting straight reviews and beginner friendly videos! cheers !
Just picked this up last night, went outside with only solar lighting at midnight it is fantastic can see how much fun I am going to have with this lense.
Not that I am planning to buy lens but I learned a lot about the topic in this video. I guess I owe Youngnou some credit for teaching what might go wrong with lenses...
I used the yongnuo for a long time, since then till now I had a bit more money to spend so I went for the Canon this time around. After watching this video I’m glad I did!
I got the yongnuo as im poor. I was aware of its weaknesses but heard it was great for the price. Lens are so bloody expensive. I did bite the bullet on one lens though and love it. The sigma 18-35 art lens. Great review.
Good review. Very detailed comparison. So grateful that I got the Canon nifty fifty. Actually once had a 50mm 1.8 II and it was not very durable and sharp. STM version is much sharper.
Best comparison man. The video quality, the presentation, comparison, everything was just amazing. I was going to buy the Yongnuo ,but after seeing this, I am going to save up a bit more and then buy the canon 1.8. Thanks !
Today I got the canon 50mm 1.8 stm, it cost me 160 new, as they are hard to get now at my local best buys, target etc. I went to my camera store in town at my friend's shop and he just had one, so I jumped on it😄
For years now I have the Canon 50mm f1.8 II. The lens gives nice images. But since a couple of years I use the Sigma 50mm f1.4 Art, that is such a good lens.
Just got both of them a day or two ago im using the yongnuo to practice and get adjusted to it and now that im using the canon its so much easier to dial in the settings
Great review, in my country the Canon 50mm it's 900U$ and the Yongnuo is 450U$ so it's a big diference, even more when(normal wage is 200U$) but i'm still not sure if the diference is that big to literraly pay the double beside the focus quality... which 90% of the time my T100 takes like 5s to get it right.
What about video? Is the young lens just overall trash in your opinion? From this video the young looked decent. I've seen video footage of the young and it looked pretty decent
A few issues.. firstly, pretty every person who wants to invest in a cheaper 1.8 ,kinda knows they shouldnt use autofocus.. in manual it's pretty much as good as the canon. Especially if you use focus peaking. Secondly,..the colors straight out of the camera doesnt really matter,..a decent photographer shoots in a flat profile anyways,and brings everything back in editing. Yeah,its not the canon 1.8.. but for the price it's a gem.. I use both..because I came across the yongnuo after I bought the canon.. and I more often use the yongnuo...
I got the yungnu specifically for leaving on my eos m via a ef to eos m adapter I keep my canon on rotation with my better camera if I decide to use the canon on my eos m then I just swap it
Thanks man! The background is about 2 meters from the camera and the led lights are about 1 meter behind the lenses. The reason why it’s so bokehlishious is the fast 1.8 aperture ;)
I have the Youngnuo 50mm f/1.8 lens, and it produces atrociously soft images at f/1.8 with terrible contrast. I have to stop it down to f/2.8 to get decently sharp images.
I was thinking of ditching the kit lens and buying youngnuo lens. I will stick to the kit lens then.Thank you!! I willl watch the advert as a way of showing my thanks
I can use a Yongnuo on my Canon SL2 DSLR but not on my Canon Rebel G 35mm SLR. I found a good used Canon 50mm f/1.8 II Lens for $75. I like shooting both film and digital.
Yes I would get a Canon 1.8, in case you are already on EOS R cameras... the RF 50 1.8. I used for a while a EF 50 1.8 STM, then a 1.4 USM and after regretting the 1.4s abysmal image quality and flaws the RF 50 1.8 The RF 50 1.8 is just THE BEST you can get Considering you still use a T5i.... i would think about a 2nd hand EOS RP! Since the R8 is released many people want to get rid of the RP for the R8, the "RP Mk2". If you dont mind video too much with the RP you get incredible (STILLS!) performance for "little" money. I upgraded once from T3i/550D to the RP and the difference was much more noticable than any lens could have made, especially since i only used lower end to midclass full frame lenses
Canon lens is way better in every category. This pandemic I used my canon dslr as a webcam and i love it so much, then I bought this cheap Yongnu 50mm lens f1.8 for me to look better and I love the results and the bokeh effect is amazing during video conferencing, super clear and look so live, not those who use artificial blurred background.
Would the Canon 50mm 1.8 STM be considered a wide angle lens? I want to start a podcast with a 4 camera set up and I need one of those cameras to be a wide angle lens to capture all of the subjects as they speak. Also if you could suggest a good lens for my 3 other camera that will capture a up close image similar to a talking head video. also the cameras I'm using are the cannon 80D, if that helps.
The 50mm could work great for closer images/talking head. However, it’s not a wide angle lens. For that you need a 24mm or wider, depending on the room size.
Thanks! To use the Canon 50mm on your camera you’d need an “ef to e mount” adapter. There are some cheap options, but you won’t have autofocus. If you want autofocus as well they are over $100...

An easy decision, right? ;)
We cant expect much from yongnuo in that price segment. Its best at its price
Totally agree ;)
Don't give a f about built quality. Price matters not a fair video
If you're just starting out or a student with little funds it's the GREATEST lens on Earth!
I really like the way you presented these differences. I am surprised you don't have more subscribers/likes! Keep up the good work!
Thanks, man! If you share the video I might get a few more subs ;)
Was planning to get 50mm and not sure which one to choose but now I’m clear. Going with canon 🙌🏻
Good choice! 😉

You’re gonna love it! Thanks again, mate!
You should have compared the yongnuo mark ii the one with the metal fitting.
yn wins at price. that's all the point and is its intention. great for beginner to start at 50mm if youre on a budget.
The warm tone in your video and Photos is amazing. Btw I did get the Canon one after looking some videos on UA-cam. Yours including
I bought yongnuo today thats why im here. But honestly its very good lens, and the price is so cheap. It is depend also on how you drive your gear.😁😁
Just picked this up last night, went outside with only solar lighting at midnight it is fantastic can see how much fun I am going to have with this lense.
I’m planning to buy one of those , this was really really helpful video , thanks 😊
outstanding review of the 50mm Lens very informative with excellent examples
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
You should compare the newer Yongnuo 50mm MK II to the STM, not the older MK I version. Btw the yongnuo lenses are extremely good for its price.
The mk ii is next to impossible to get a hold of, that’s why I’ve used the mk i ;)
Not that I am planning to buy lens but I learned a lot about the topic in this video. I guess I owe Youngnou some credit for teaching what might go wrong with lenses...
Yeah, sometimes you need to spend the extra money for higher quality ;)
I used the yongnuo for a long time, since then till now I had a bit more money to spend so I went for the Canon this time around. After watching this video I’m glad I did!
Wow, really great review!!! I learned a lot. Plz do more videos on lens
I'm planning to buy one and this is really helpful! Thank you so much

Aaah, the Sigma is great (and expensive). Completely cool to get the Yongnuo, use it for a year or two, sell it and then upgrade to the Canon ;)
Good review. Very detailed comparison. So grateful that I got the Canon nifty fifty.
Actually once had a 50mm 1.8 II and it was not very durable and sharp. STM version is much sharper.
Hey! I also had the 1.8 II. The stm is soooo much better ;)
Okay, how about shooting video with the yongnuo Lens
It’s definitely ok, but the Canon is better ;)
The production quality is amazing! Cobra Kai feels
Thanks! Cobra Kai never dies ;)
I heard the canon paired with the Viltrox speed booster is a winning combo. Also drops the f point to 1.4
Best comparison man. The video quality, the presentation, comparison, everything was just amazing.
I was going to buy the Yongnuo ,but after seeing this, I am going to save up a bit more and then buy the canon 1.8.
Thanks !
Thanks man! You’re choosing well in saving up a bit more for the Canon ;)
@@PaulHeimlund Credit to your video. Thank you
Perfect! I was about to settle buying the Yongnuo since it's a little cheaper. But I changed my mind, Canon for life!
Thank you so much!
Oh yeah! Canon all the way! ;)
I use 2.2 or 2.8 on yn and I even use yn on events because I dont have enough money to buy a canon lens but it is doing good
Informative!!!
BTW, your studio seems to be on fire…
Yeah! hahaha
Dang, Youngnu got blown out of the water. It's still a great deal still, ESPECIALLY at that awesome price.
I hope you’ll go for the Canon ;)
I bought canon lens today. It’s my first lens to buy & the results are amazing!!
Good choice! Same for me, Canon 50mm 1.8 was the first “proper” lens I bought, and I still use it ;)
I think it will be my first bought lens too.

And thanks, glad you liked the video 😁
Best review i ever seen as this topic. Thank you😃
Glad you liked it😁
Hello from Ukraine!
Thanks for the comparison, the video helps you make a choice.
My Yongnuo has a metal mount. I'm not seeing any of the quality drop you describe. Did they make a better version??
Yeah, they made a mk ii with a metal mount, which is an improvement. I’ve made a video about that one as well ;)
I'm only agree with canon 50mm1.8 stm prime I love it this lens📸
This video was super-cool, thanks ✌️
Amazing video bro, for the price bump in my region the canon one seems like a better option, thanks for putting the important parts in one video
Thanks! Stay tuned as I’m about to release a review of the Yongnuo 50mm 1.8 mk ii! 😁
What's good in this lens if u use it in crop or full frame it works that is one thing i like in youngnou
What about video? Is the young lens just overall trash in your opinion? From this video the young looked decent. I've seen video footage of the young and it looked pretty decent
It’s not trash, just not as good as the Canon...
Thank you so much for the review very simple and understandable I will go for the canon not like other channels with too many confusing English 🙄🙄🙄

Awesome cinematography! How far is the background from the lenses and the led strip from the lenses to give that nice bokeh?
Thanks man! The background is about 2 meters from the camera and the led lights are about 1 meter behind the lenses. The reason why it’s so bokehlishious is the fast 1.8 aperture ;)

Currently not much of a price difference around $30 new. Canon with minor cosmetic wear goes for same price or less. Gotta go Canon.

To fix lens, i just need a nice bokeh. So with the cheap price, i choose yungnuo
Especially when photographed object is placed at the center of image. Soft corners covered by bokeh don't bother at all.
Is it true that you don't need micro-adjustments with a system camera and that the lens is therefore better focused?
Thank you, sir. This video help me a lot !
