    Man nobody has explained this so simply and clearly even though I have watched so many videos! Thank you so much. And yes nifty fifty is a winner for me.

    The 85mm doesn't look weird to me at all. It actually looks pretty good and similar to the 50mm.

    Nice video - thanks for taking the time to show the comparisons.
    It would be great to know the distance between camera-to-subject to help understand what fits within the frame from what distance. For example I recently did some headshots with a 135mm f/2.8 on a MFT (so 270mm f/5.6 Full Frame equivalent) and the camera was a good 8-10 metres away ... the compression was great but slightly out of arms reach and not at all practical for UA-cam (especially being a manual lens - although these challenges can be easily overcome with the assistance of a 15 year old son or, if you can't wait that long, PDMovie remote focus and BenBox wireless video streaming)!!

    Can you elaborate on 35 vs 50mm for talk to camera setup?

    That 85 looks good

    If you are talking about lenses you have to specify the camera or at least the sensor. "50mm" means nothing if we dont know the sensor size. I assume full frame I guess?

      I'm sure it is full lens.
      Others we would have gotten some Bokeh with the 16mm, if it was native APS-C lens.

    • @justanothernoobe

      ​@@AtomLabX not necessarily. Wide angle doesn't always = bokeh. There's the ratio of distance between camera-to-subject and subject-to-background as well as how wide the aperture is. I have a 7.5mm on a MFT sensor (so 11-12m APS-C / 15mm Full Frame) - at f2.0 it gets some half-decent bokeh but stop it down and zilch bokeh. Meanwhile the 23mm MFT f/1.4 has heaps of bokeh (again, depending on that distance ratio). And the 17mm MFT f/0.95 is just monstrous bokeh 😁
      On the beach with the Canon 75-300mm APS-C I used to get gorgeously creamy bokeh but that's because I was a good 40 metres away from the subject and the background (cliffs) were about 500 metres away from the subject! I just wish I had a room that big for my own youtube videos 🤣🤣🤣

      I think he must be talking about full frame. With my APS-C camera 16 mm is about right to use as a webcam for presentations. I have 32 mm lens as well but it is way too zoomed in unless I set the camera way back.

  • @AtomLabX
    @AtomLabX 3 роки тому +4

    I prefer the 85mm with talking heads, just because it makes the face look better.
    Yet, the camera has to be so far away and all that, but it is worth it, for the way you look on camera.
    and 16 is the worst.
    As AX3 said, it would be nice to say that hey, we are talking full frame here, so new people at least would know what is going on.
    Because this is more advanced, if you're going this way.

    Gotta be a little better about matching your size in the different shots so we can see the difference. Your last one you look more zoomed out, which hides the extra background compression that actually exists.

    i saw so many videos today but this is the most beautifully explaind video i have come across 😇 thankyou for clearing all the doubts

  • @fieldpictures1306

    Missed the key info of what camera you're shooting this on. Is it FF, S35, Apsc, or Mft? So many you tubers leave out this critical information.

    Are you using an APS-C camera or a full frame camera in this video?

    Thanks 🙏🏿

    Thank you, this helped considerably. I am getting into shooting interviews on a crop sensor and it looks like a 35mm lens will work to get close to a 50mm look.

    Are the focal lentgh for full frame or cropped (AKA do I have to converted them to full frame or vise versa) ?

    Nice video but forgot to mention APS-C vs fullframe on the intro. Not all focal lengths are equal on aps-c and fullframe

    what lens you would suggest and is best for talking head videos . under 250 euro . for sony zv10 mark2

  • @GodwinChirume

    35mm owith my 18-35mm sigma for canon on a 250D is working well for me

  • @cdslash744
    @cdslash744 3 роки тому +5

    You really need to cite the sensor size otherwise the focal length is meaningless.

    I have a question. I'm wanting to start a video podcast with a 4 camera set up. I have 4 cannon 80Ds and I would like to have 3 cameras focused on the individual talent and the 4th camera on everyone at once, what lens would you suggest?

  • @ubellubo
    @ubellubo 2 роки тому

    I am completley new to this. My camera is an APS-C (Canon M6 ii), so I need to multiply by 1.6 to convert to the sizes you are talking about. So my 16 mm lens is equivalent to a 26 mm lens. Is that right?

    • @nickpavlou5023
      @nickpavlou5023 2 роки тому +1

      Hi Stephen. You probably have your answer by now. But you're right. You also have to multiply the f-stop number to get the equivalent aperture, as both focal length and aperture are affected on crop sensors.

    It's a shame you don't know what you are talking abou.
