- Can a cheap lens for your camera really be worth it? Well, I guess that depends on the lens, but in this case.......yes!

Holy crap, I was not expecting to learn so much in this video. I have a friend who is a professional photographer who has taught me a lot of the basics, as well as some deeper stuff like bokeh and lens types, but that was really interesting.
I don't particularly mind what content you come out with, but I will definitely be paying attention to any more videos talking about photography or video editing, I'd love to learn more about either of those things.
Keep up the good videos!
Leviathan431 thanks man! I’m glad you liked it and learned some things, that was my whole goal with this video! I’m already planning my next product review and some tutorial videos. I’m also working on a short little travel video I filmed yesterday with the family. We went up to northern Arizona to escape the heat and the city for a few hours. I think I got some cool shots and I took a drone! Stay tuned and thanks for supporting the channel! 😜🤘👏
Hahaha, I don't blame you. I'm from Australia where it's finally starting to cool down after a hot summer.
Oh, I just looked up ND lenses, I never thought you'd need less light in a shot. It makes sense, though can't you just adjust the light in the edit and get at least almost the same effect?
Ooh, that reminds me, I had some rolling shots taken with both my and my buddys IS's, so I'm hoping they turn out good.
Well, I'm looking forward to seeing what you come out with next! See you next week 😁
Talking about some pros and cons of the Yongnuo 50mm f/1.8 prime lens! Drop a comment and let me know what you think of this lens and what other product reviews you would want to see!!! :)
Tempe town lake?
Greg Leavitt yep 😊
I have a Nikon D5300 with an 18-55 mm AF-P kit lens. The camera has the latest version of the firmware where the AF and MF settings are internal. Have you tested the compatibility of the lens with the firmware as I've seen you're also using the same DSLR as me?
I have a D5100 would it work for this model?
Do you find this lens too noisy for shooting videos.... non b roll?
Easily the best and most informative video on this lens, so good!
Rob Jackson thanks man!!!
Aaron Meyers A little off subject, but have you by any chance used the 35mm yongnuo? I've got a cropped sensor and a 35mm is equivalent to a 50mm (Estimate) for me, would it be good still for landscape photography do you think?
Yes on filters color and other .. I just ordered a Yongnuo 50mm lens for my Nikon .. I am a Canadian photojournalist street photographer in Santiago Dominican Republic .. I mostly shoot with a 55mm to 200mm Nikon lens but I have been very interested in a 50mm lens .. great video
Mahmood R Thomas thanks for your comment! I hope the lens works for well for you.
I purchased the nikon NIKKOR 1.8G last night, still awaiting delivery, I purchased because I wasn't sure if buying the clone would be false economy, I wish I had found this review yesterday! Never mind I can't go wrong with the original, got it at half of its original price and was described 'like new'.
hey dude, came across this video looking for a review on this lens. Excellent well thought out review. Plus i learned a few things and you got a new sub. Keep up the great work!
Jim Sawyer awesome! Glad you liked it, I plan to do some more product reviews soon!
Correction, this lens is a clone of the AF Nikkor 50 f/1.8 G. I have both and they are almost identical in performance and appearance.
I agree. People should mention this distinction. As the two are very different. This Yongnuo version is both superior optically and build wise compared to the canon counterpart Yongnuo or not. And is about 20$ more expensive. Downsides of YN compared to Nikkor are: YN is a lot louder, focuses slower, and I don't know if it has autofocus override. Nikkor also has just a slightly better contrast, much less flares and is sharper. But is also 3 times more expensive. Who can, should definitely get one of these. Optically the difference is virtually indistinguishable.
@@MrDox90 How much is the nikon counterpart?
@@IGarrettI that probably varies on where you live. But in my area a used 50 mil is about 130-150e while you can buy a yongnuo one for 60 on aliexpress.
loved this video! Im a newbie and I didn’t realize how expensive this hobby will be lol. please make more product review videos!
Michele Krupnov thanks man! I plan to I just need to make time, I’ve been working on a lot of client film projects and some longer personal projects.
Aaron Meyers that’s awesome! well your video encourage me to order the lense on amazon and shoot!
sorry to be so off topic but does any of you know of a method to get back into an Instagram account??
I somehow lost my password. I would love any help you can give me!
@Garrett Mateo instablaster ;)
@Larry Brady thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and im in the hacking process now.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Loved the product shots at the beginning!
Billy Brandon thanks man!
Hi, I just bought one and it arrived yesterday. Quite impressed. A little noisy but incredible for the price.
David M Sutton yeah for the money they are pretty good!
So I bought the Yongnuo 50mm, the Nikkor 35mm 1.8g (new 130$ ebay) , and the nikkor 50mm 1.8g (almost new, 115$). While the side by sides at first look *almost the same, the more you look at them, the more the differences stand out. The Yonguo is much softer, and does not have the sharpness that the Nikkor lens have. The contrast and colors are also better on the Nikkor... HOWEVER, my real gripe was with the autofocus. I bought the Yongnuo on 12/2018, so I have the updated firmware. The autofocus with my D3200 was spotty. It was slow, missed often, and would just stop focusing after 1 or 2 adjustments. It was also super loud. My nikkor lens focused much better and faster, so I returned the yongnuo and kept the Nikkor lens'.
So for a beginner photographer looking just to mess around, maybe get the Yongnuo (esp for $40 if you have canon), but really I would recommend you buy both and the same time, test them, then return the one you dont like.
In the end, I could've gotten over the image quality difference, but the autofocus missing, going slow, then not working was what led me to return the Yongnuo...
Stanson yes the auto focus is very loud and can be slow at times.
Great video, loved the personality you showed! Really surprised you don't have more subs!
Blaze Watson thank you!
Very informative! Still thinking what should i buy tho, the Nikon AF-S 50MM 1.8G or this? Subscribed tho
A 50mm lens is a 50mm lens regardless of the crop factor. What does change is the apparent angle of view.
In this case the 50mm has the same field of view on aps-c as a 75mm does on a full frame.
still nope
ND filter review plsss
Good lens. They make good light panels and flashes as well. I got one for ya, try a CCTV lens out! I got a mft adapter and 35mm 1.7 on eBay for like $20. Put a little piece of fishing line across it and basically made an anamorphic lens for under $30.
Billy Brandon that’s a cool idea, I may have to try that!
Hey Billy care to share how you made that anamorphic lens or do you have a link for it?
I have a Nikon d3400. Can I use it without problem? Better than 35mm YN? I’m a beginner and i can’t get more quality with the kit lens. Do you recommend me this one?. (I would use it for video too).
Diego C. Yes. All the Nikon D3000's, 5000's, 7000's, and their pro level stuff and full frame cameras have the F Mount. I believe except for the new mirrorless Z models.
My D3200 has trouble with the Yongnuo's autofocus. My nikkor lens focused much faster and more accurate. The yongnuo was also slightly less sharper then the Nikkor. Buy them both, test them, and return the one you dont like!
i was wondering if it would be ok to use on my 80d? i think the answers yes... what about image stabilization ?
Love your review on yongnuo 50mm!!
John Nimrod Razzine Magbanua thanks!
Which one should i pick this one or NIKKOR AF 50mm 1.8G ?PRICE IS ALMOST IDENTICAL kind of confused
Hardcore Gears of the price is almost the same I would go with the Nikkor
I purchased mine new about 2018 not used it a lot....it says digital on mine and has a metal mount....
I don't know if mine is a MK II so I want to try on Canon film camera probs the canon 500n wonder how it works on them....will try soon...
Thanks for informative video......
I just realized that there are several versions already out in the market. Mine is Yongnuo 50mm f /1.8 with a very thin focus ring and plastic mount. It seems to be 1st generation though I bought it 2 years ago. The focusing is slow. How's it on that one?
Sir, It would be of great help if you can directly compare this lens with the one it has copied from, i.e. the Nikon 50mm f/1.8g. That most probably ought to be better and polished of course given the Nikkor branding. But by how much? That is the question.
Do you have any issues with photos being out of focus when you look at them in lightroom? I have this lens and some photos even in good lighting conditions are out of focus when I zoom in even though I focused on the eyes.
Good video...but expecting some sample shots on aperture 1.8
What about ghosting and flaring ?
What about the sharpness on f/1.8 is it worse than Nikkor 50mm f/1.8G ?
But in this price range bokeh quality is nice...
Quality Work
Asfand Yar thanks!
Love this video and your information as I have been considering this lens. Thanks so much.
P.S. looks like Tempe town lake !
Alex Alvarez thanks! And yes it is Tempe Town Lake!!!
Aaron Meyers been wanting to go ride scooters over there and get some gimbal shots. Haven’t had a chance to make it yet.
Very nice review, thanks for sharing. Does this lens have its own AF motor or does it need a motorized Nikon body? Thanks
Thanyou! Very informative.
Hello. I want to buy this glass (yongnuo 50mm 1.8 i or ii) and camera. I hesitate between the Canon 7d or the Nikon d3400. As a professional, maybe you could advise me which camera will be better. I like the 50mm focal length on the aps-c. I do mostly portraits. Nikon is younger, smaller, more modern and has a larger sensor. Will the picture and bokeh be better in Nikon or Canon? Thanks in advance for the information.
WOW THIS IS SUCH A GOOD REVIEW!!! NEW SUB
Melvin B.B thanks!!
I got this lens today, I have it on MF on the lens and on my camera. But it's only doing the focus on the middle dot, it doesn't give me any other option in manual, why?!?!?!
Kindra Hanneman because it’s in manual focus. I don’t believe there’s anyway to shift the focus point unless your in Auto focus mode, at least not that I’m aware of.
Which has better bokeh? The nikkor 50 mm 1.8d or the yonguo? I'll be shooting primarily in manual mode so autofocus doesnt really matter
Siddharth Ajith Kumar I think the overall sharpness and image quality of the Canon is a little better but if I remember correctly it only has 5 aperture blades where the Yongnuo has 7 which makes for more rounded bokeh.
Aaron Meyers i was asking about the nikon 50mm 1.8d. Both the nikon 1.8d and yongnuo 1.8 have 7 aperture blades
Aaron Meyers the new Canon has 7 bkades
4:23 is she mocking Conor McGregor 😂🤣😅
Hanad TheAce Haha!
I’ll just subscribe, that’s what i’ll do. I love pretty much everything in this video!
comparing it to the original Nikon 50mm lens, is there is much deference ?
Okay, there is the 50 mm X1.6 for my 70D. What should be the next lens?
use it for a couple of months, see if the 75mm equiv is what you love,what do you shoot? that question is what you need to answer first,you may want to look at these options
if you love primes go with 24mm 2.8 stm(great for street photography)
if you want versatility, go with sigma 17-50 2.8 (great for events)
if you want more bokeh go with the sigma 50 1.4 or an 85 1.8 by Canon
if you wanna try another view or perspective, go with the canon 10-18mm
is it good with low light situations and does it take great pictures
Is it soft on extreme end apertures?
would it take a nikon d3000?
I have two of them and love them
found one of these on ebay, for about $40 which is "seller refurbished", i mainly want it for streaming, love having a shallow depth of field
Does it work for Nikon D5200?
All Nikon DSLRs use the same F mount. Full frame and cropped sensor cameras can use the same lenses like the YN50. . Just make sure that the version of the lens you get is made for Nikon. They also make a version for Canon cameras too, they use a different mount. Also, mirrorless cameras use different lenses from DSLRs regardless of brand. There are adaptors that will allow you to use DSLR lenses on mirrorless cameras.
Hey man dope vid! Especially the B Roll since that's what I was thinking of using this Ken's for. BTW what gimbal did you use? If you did ... Keep up the great content
should i buy yongnuo 50mm or canon 50 mm
Anes Azouz to be honest I would buy the Canon. The yongnuo is a great solution for a really tight budget the actual Canon 50mm is only about $200.00 if I remember correctly. I recently switch over to a Sony A7iii and I bought the Sony 50mm f1.8, it was only $248.00
Great video ..Thank you from Cairo...Keep going...
Thanks I'm planning on getting this lens got my Nikon. Thank you so much. Btw where did you get music during your video. Great job 👍👍👍
A L King thanks! I can’t remember where this music was from but I use Artlist and Epidemic Sound for all my current projects.
@@AaronFilmsStuff Alrighty thanks. Keep up the videos. 👍👍👍😁
hmmm... my yongnuo for canon has a plastic lens mount
That B Roll is sick man!
Yatharth Papnai thanks!!!!!!
Hi. I have a question. Is it good on Nikon D3200?
Dude you’re dope I love this lens
Darius Brim thanks man!
Is that a D3300 you're using at 07:06 , I'm just about to buy this lens for mine
Zadrium yes it was! However I just upgraded to a Sony A7iii. I liked the combo of this lens on that camera, I filmed an entire wedding with that setup!!!
Aaron Meyers Alright, freaky.. I think my next camera will be the Sony A7 III too
What version is this lens? Because can only see the plastic mount.
i have one . But the AF is really slow and bad on AV mode on canon 550D
Shera Aisya yeah, it’s not the best at auto focus on any body!
Awesome video and great review instant sub👍🏼
Which Nikon camera did you use for the lens
nikkon 50mm 1.8 G or this ?
great review!
Think after a while we ll see full frame cameras from China for 200 bucks with decent quality.
Xras I wouldn’t be surprised!
hey man, awesome review!, i was curious as to where the music is from, since you don't credit any artist, is it stock or from a certain subscription library?
Blaise ingyou thanks for the comment! I use Epidemic Sound.
Hi! What size of ND filter fits that lens? Thanks😊 a first timer to use ND filter in lens like this😊
Thanks for this video. I'm sold. I'm gonna get this. lol
I think its worth it✔
Thanks for this bro
Hello. Do you know if the autofocus will work on nikon d5100?
Yeah I want to know too... Did you find?
Good videoo 💗💗💗
I have sony a6300 and sgma aadapter mc 11 can i use it with this lens ????
Is this compatible with nikon d3100?
Part of a fb photography group and get laughed at for defending spending £40 on this lens
jamie goode don’t worry about other people. If the lens works for you and your needs and you’re happy with it then that’s all that matters! 😜
@@AaronFilmsStuff Oh i am happy with it, obviously down the line id like to get a sharper one but for now this one rocks and does the job.
I left most of "photography" groups i was in. It was less on helping each other but more on flexing expensive gear and laughing at people with less expensive gears. After i left, i never looked back.
Could someone get a set up for video for a very affordable price? What is the lowest price you think someone can go with as a beginning set up?
Martin Ramos absolutely you can! My setup is in no way expensive or “pro”. Get what you can afford and start making content. Learning composition, how to use your camera, and story telling are more important than image quality and high grade gear.
Can we use it in nikon d3400
Thank you Sir, just the review I needed to help me make a decision!
Also, what is the song used in this video?
Quality Content!
Edit video name app ??
I believe you shot these videos on the Nikon D5300?
Mason Onemine nope D3200!!
Aaron Meyers at what fps and frame rate sir?
Have you tried back button focussing with it?
Excellent video. Will it fit my Nikon d7100?
varun jayaraj I think so, the lens mounts are the same I believe. I would just google it to make sure before you buy one 😜
Aaron Meyers thank you. Keep going with your good job..
Nice review.
Thank you!
Video with best like to dislike video great job man 👍👍👍
All 50/1.8 lenses are that price.
LOL
If if i use it with crop sensor camera will focal length change to 75mm due to crop factor? Or this lens is made for crop sensor camera (nikon DX) ?
anirudh ogrey to the best of my knowledge it is not made for crop sensors so you would have to factor that in.
was that your squadron???
So I wonder what that makes the focal length on my husbands Canon 50D
Would be 50mm x 1.6 for the answer.....
Cheers....
cool vid bro
Will the auto focus work with a Nikon D5300?
Abinash Shrestha I imagine it would, it worked on mine.
Aaron Meyers Thanks for the quick reply.
Yes
what if ill be shooting on manual focus when doing a video ?
CHAN that works fine! I shot an entire wedding reception with the lens in manual focus mode on a gimbal!! Check it out on my channel, it’s the only wedding video I have uploaded right now.
ohhhh nice . ok gotta watch it
Aww and ND Filter.. I've been meaning to make one. Budget ND setup. Get the $37 zomei 72mm variable ND Filter on Amazon and get a stepdown ring kit. That way you can use the same variable ND Filter on every single lens. It's a great cheap hack.. as opposed to paying over $100 for tiffen ND filters for each lens.
Billy Brandon I actually already have a 58mm variable ND that I might use for the review. It’s also a cheap one but honestly really good and very handy!
Is it wide angle lens?
No, you don’t start getting into “wide” angle lenses till around 18mm and under.
Jim Chronakis its a portrait lens
Sir Can i use this lens for Nikon D 3300??????????
rajesh mandlik if you buy the version for Nikon F Mount then yes it will fit your D3300. They make this lens for several popular camera manufacturer mounts, you just need to order the one for your mount style.
Is this good for Nikon d5100
Yes takes fabulous portraits
Weight approx.200 grams.
thanks helpful video, Im a total noob and thinking of buying one of these lenses...can you do a video on how to take a selection of shots for B Roll like you made it?
hi.. do you use the flash when shooting at night?
theModest Life hi, generally no. I don’t do a whole lot of night shooting unless it’s a long exposure or lit by neon.
@@AaronFilmsStuff thanks
I got it but I regret it now.....the lens takes too long to focus and it leaves a red outline in the photo sometimes
Glomonkey I own one for Nikon and mine is really great with autofocus and don’t have problems with it.
Do you have an ig so I can see the pics you've taken?
Ig: harkoffphotos
Crops sensors does not affect the focal lenght. it just crops the image. but the depth of field is the same.
When you crop the image, the focal length changes.
@@avg4570 nope. not true. depth of field is the same. you will see the same blur. same pic just croped. a 50MM is a 50MM does not matter where you engaged it.
FredJoan Music I never mentioned depth of field. A cropped 50 mm Has the same field of view as a 75mm (approx) in full frame. (80mm for canon due to the larger crop).
I need more photos. Too much talking
footages are not sharp at all, means its useless
I bought one....and it SUCKS!! I regret it and will never go that low with lenses ever again. Unless anyone has recomendations
please just get on with it, it sais review not a tutoriral so just review the lens ffs
Djde Lucias I was just trying to help educate people who may not know as much about the workings of a lens and some common terminology. If you don’t like the video don’t watch it.
