“You’re a vlogger dude!?” haha I love this!
Same, kids are funny haha!
You made it super clear.. To buy 18-55 .. Thanks
You're welcome!
The 18-55 frustrates me. Great info about the 18-135 (Zoom Creeping - LOL). For vlogging I use the 10-18. It's sharper wider and I love it.
10-18 looks like a great lens! The fact that it's image stabilized at such a wide focal length makes it seem great for vlogging!
Great job, Josh! I love the in-person subscribers and new fan base at (02:10)! I love the Burke-Gilman trail through Fremont and Ballard!
One of the many perks of making videos in public! A lot of people (that don't always make it in the video) are often eager to ask questions and check out my work which is always fun!
Josh Winiarski Love the tumble at the start!
Thanks haha, just a little attention grabber I thought might catch people off guard!
I had to watch that “Fall Intro” 4 times!!! 😂
Well done!

Been using the 18-55mm lens for awhile on my 80D to vlog, or even create short horror movies, and I decided to buy the 18-135 so when I am creating, I don't need to be super close to where I am pointing at. That, and vlogging wise and pointing out to something random, or planes, or... just something random.. Like your creeping lens joke. Haha. The 55mm lens, is good for close shots. While I use the G7X Mark 2, just zooming in is so slow when I want to catch a bird flying, like I saw a Bald Eagle flying around our area, and it was gone by the time my G7X zoomed far enough in to actually capture it (While I quickly parked on the side of the road to get it with my hazards on! Safety first!) The weight I am not to worried about, my 80D definitely is heavier than my G7X. But, my canon 80D was my first DSLR, went from a Nikon L840 to Canon 80D. LOL.
Thanks for sharing, hope this helps people out! The 18-135 isn't necessary for most of what I shoot, but it definitely is a better choice for some people depending on their particular style!
Yooooo. Lol. Got me on that intro brotha! I was all like. Daammmnn. Haha I’m actually trying to figure out which lens is best. Great comparison bud. Just hit the sub! 👍🏽
Haha thanks glad you liked it, I appreciate the support! I'd do a little research before deciding which lens is best for you, I think it depends a lot on what your specific workflow is!
Pls be careful with your stunts I was worried for a bit there... The Kids were soo cute!! Thanks for this video I just got my 80D with the kit lens will stick with that for while, learn about it more before upgrading... plus you got a new sub! 🙂
Sorry for worrying you, also that's super cool you got an 80D hope you make some awesome content with it! Thanks for the sub, much appreciated!
Been subscribed to you before. But really loved to see your vids after looking for some lenses I needed. And glad you had these kit lens vids!!! Yey!!!!
Your entry is awesome! ;)
Thanks, glad you like it, I thought it was something different haha!
Hey, thanks for detailed review about vloging aspects on these lenses. 👍💪📸
My pleasure!
so? which one is better for vlogging and UA-cam videos , photography ?
some told me 18-135 is better for every thing but just wanna see the experts reviews for that
If you want 1 lens to do everything, yeah I'd say the 18-135 is better. That's such a versatile focal range it's a great do-everything lens! I can't say anything about image quality in the 18-55 range, I haven't done extensive testing, but if you're JUST vlogging, It can be really nice to have the 18-55, it's significantly lighter and with the money you save you may be able to buy another lens with more range. But if you wanna do everything with just ONE lens and can afford it, the 18-135 makes more sense. Hope this helps!
@@JoshWiniarski ofcourse you did Thanks very much and sorry for my bad English
Let you who has never "zoom creeped" cast the first stone.
Comment of the day right here ^
Thank you very much for this amazing video, I finally found which lens i will use ☺️
No problem, glad I could help!
7:05 The fact that he found LARPers in the wild is crazy to me.
I've been tempted to start practising wildlife vlogging for my behind the scene stuff. But the idea of carrying my 6D with a Sigma 150-600 C the lens alone being 1.9kg and I have a 700D which I thought would be a good camera to try for vlogging, but I sold my 18-55 to camera store so now I'm thinking I should pick one up 2nd for cheap vlogging, as 700D if I keep the grip on has a much better battery life than compact cameras like the canon gx7 What's your thoughts?
That sounds like a solid plan to me! Especially if you're going to be carrying 1 camera with a big piece of glass on it you'll probably want to keep your vlog camera small and light. Admittedly, carrying 2 DSLRs at once sounds like a little bit of a pain, but if you can make it work I bet you could make some sweet BTS videos! Again, it sounds a little cumbersome, but having a good camera strap for you wildlife camera would probably make it tolerable.
@@JoshWiniarski yeah I think just using as a test run it would work well. I tried it with my tokina 16-28 but it's way too heavy and loud 🤣 700D had decent face detection, flip screen and I have one of those mini rode mics. Look up morten hilmer he's my inspiration for doing it.
Yeah the 18-55 is cheap and light, and if you get the STM one it's a decent lens for vlogging. I'll check em out!
Hey, in those selfie shots are you holding the camera with a tripod or just holding the camera itself ?
I had the 18-135mm and I find it hard to get myself in the shot at arm's distance
Super helpful video!
Glad you found it helpful!
Lol omg isn’t is the best when kids stop you!! I haven’t uploaded any vlogs yet but I’ve filmed some and the kids are the best! They make you feel so cool!
Definitely! I like when anyone stops me out of interest, but kids tend to look at you like you're the coolest thing they've ever seen haha!
haha that intro 🔥❤️ Nice video 👏🏽
Thanks 💯
Great Video!!!! What do you think about the Tamron 18-200?
HAHAHAH THAT INTRO MAN SUBSCRIBED
Very useful video was considering the 18-135 but will stick with the kit lens for now, thanks!
It's a really nice all purpose photography lens, but I think the extra reach is unnecessary for MOST vloggers.
Hey! could u vlog hand held using the 18-55?? Or do u recommend using a larger hand held tri pod??
You can definitely vlog with an 18-55mm handheld! What do you mean by a larger hand-held tripod? Does that mean something like a gorillapod, or a bigger tripod?
There seems, to me, to be a very noticeable fractional jerky-stopping when filming moving subjects? ( More so when zoomed-in. 18 - 135mm)
Sooo helpful ! 😊✨
I'm glad!
Hi, I have a Canon T6i with the kit lens and whenever I vlog my toddler it is trash at auto focusing (and loud) and I can't seem to get a good video. I am not the best with camera stuff so I figured I'd ask you for your opinion. I was going to get a vlogging camera like the G7X MII but don't think it would be necessary to spend a lot of money on that. What camera lens would you recommend for my T6i for vlogging with good focusing abilities that won't make a rattling noise? I heard the canon 10-18mm might be good, thoughts?Thank you so much for your help!! :)
The canon 10-18 is a very popular vlogging lens. It's nice and wide and should be fairly quick at focusing. The reason you are hearing what you describe as a "rattling noise" is likely just the lenses' motor. You might have the older EF-S 18-55mm . The newest version has an STM motor which makes it nearly silent while focusing which is ideal for video. If you like the focal range on the 18-55, i'd recommend the STM version (it's what I use it in all my vlogging videos like my most recent video if you want an example). If you use face detection to focus (which I assume your camera has but I'm not 100% sure) then a wider lens will help keep more of your face in frame which will help autofocus track you which is a big plus to the 10-18mm. Hope this helps, let me know if you have further questions!
@@JoshWiniarski Wow, thank you so much for your quick response! This is the camera I have www.amazon.com/Canon-Rebel-Digital-EF-S-18-55mm/dp/B00T3ER7QO/ref=pd_cart_vw_crc_1_1/137-9806709-8708139?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00T3ER7QO&pd_rd_r=67208596-f2db-4421-9ebf-44ae00c283a7&pd_rd_w=PFGF6&pd_rd_wg=vrKWy&pf_rd_p=7b1a11cb-b9d6-4645-a52e-34c86ca37029&pf_rd_r=NVNWCJ33QFVF73ZWNWBY&psc=1&refRID=NVNWCJ33QFVF73ZWNWBY. I think it matches with the STM lens you mentioned but for some reason it does not give me the best quality as far as focusing (major blur) and some rattling when I am vlogging/videoing my toddler for home video purposes. Does the camera I linked here have the face recognition? If so, do you think the 10-18mm will help keep my toddler in focus more? Thanks again, you are a big help :) Are there any other lenses you would recommend to avoid this problem/ having to buy a vlogging camera like the g7x?
Love that intro! Great video!
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it!
Hi. I wanted to record indoor videos . Yoga and fitness.
Pl suggest me which one has more sharper and more best bookeh effect ?
18-55 or 18-135 for fuji xt30 camera ?
Realistically, there won't be much of a difference in either of these lenses in terms of sharpness or bokeh, as they're both entry-level lenses. If you're looking for faster apertures and more sharpness in this price range, you'll want to consider the 24mm f/2.8, 40mm f/2.8, 50mm f/1.8, 17-50 f/2.8 etc. Hope this helps!
THX THX I have do so long search a video test for a comparison of these two lenses!!!!
My pleasure, glad I could help!
could you help me one more time? :) Which memory card is better fo this cam? speed ( UHS-Class) and with size ist is better for example if I go on vacation for one week and want write a lot of videos ) thx ;)
So to be perfectly honest I don't know a ton about SD cards except for the basics 😅. That being said UHS-1 should be fine as far as I can tell (that's what I used in this video and it worked fine in the SL2 for me since it's just 1080p video at a relative average bitrate. If you want to get really technical here's a nice little article worth checking out alikgriffin.com/fastest-memory-cards-canon-sl2-eos-200d/
thx you ) i think this card is good - SanDisk Extreme PRO® SDXC-Karte 256 GB Class 10, UHS-I, UHS-Class 3, v30
@@Rosomaha947 Yeah that card will work for sure! I would think if anything it will be a little overkill, but having 256GB will store A LOT of footage! Definitely a good idea if you don't have anywhere to dump the files for a while. Have fun on vacation, hope you get some awesome shots!
I was eating when you fell, man, I almost choked :'D Anyway great video, it helped a lot
How to setting 18-55 kit lens for vloging
I buy 18-135mm because this vid
Awesome, glad I could help!
Personally I would go 18-135mm all day. Just love the versatility.
Can't argue with that. I'll personally use it as a general purpose "walk-around" photography lens, but having 135mm for vlogging definitely could come in handy if you aren't carrying/don't have time to switch lenses!
@@JoshWiniarski Exactly. Been vlogging all over the place and there have been many situations where switching a lens out was not a good idea.
No atracan por ahí?
Is this good for landscape photography
Both will get the job done. Neither are phenomenal, but I used the 18-55 for landscapes for a long time!
Old but.. man where's the pics
I have this lens but it doesn't autofocus unless I press the af button or half press the shutter button is it the way it is supposed to work or is it faulty?
That depends on a couple things. So typically a lens wont focus unless your holding the shutter button half down when taking pictures. If you're taking video it depends on the camera body. For instance, a Canon 80D or Canon SL2 has continuous auto-focus in video mode so the lens will automatically adjust without holding the shutter button down. Cameras like the canon T6 and canon 60D do not have this feature, and will only focus in video mode if the shutter is being pressed. Hope this helps, and if you have further questions let me know what camera you are using and what settings and I can try to help further!
@@JoshWiniarski it's crystal clear now can't thank you enough for your reply
My pleasure!
@@JoshWiniarski Does the canon t7i have continuous auto-focus?
@@JoshWiniarski Does the canon t7i have continuous auto-focus?
My man you are gonna get hurt with this stunts😂
It's a sacrifice...I'm willing to make 😉
Do you find any advantage with the 18 - 135 3.5 apature?
Zoom Creeping LOL.. Very helpful video.
Glad someone appreciates my humor 😅
Do I need a lens that can max out at 300mm to film pranks from afar?
Depends how far away you plan to be. If you're looking at a lens like the 70-300mm, I would suggest the 55-250mm instead. It won't zoom quite as far, but it's image stabilized which will make the shot much smoother if you're filming video on a crop sensor camera. Hope this helps!
That intro hahahahah.
Keep it up!!
Thanks for the support, will do!
so shaky
Yeah the video was a bit shaky. I normally shoot with an 80D instead of an SL2 so I wonder if the camera being lighter made it a bit shakier while vlogging...Or maybe I just held the gorillapod farther down or drank one too many cups of coffee. Regardless, I apologize for the shakiness!
ne diyo acaba😢
😂 intro was Osama
Be precise.. u r good otherwise! All d best bro :)
Thanks, I'm always looking to improve!
Ur not a teen but u look alike 🙂
What's your favorite vlogging lens? I'm curious, let me know!
10-18 is the best lens you can get for vlogging on an APS-C camera but it has a very limited focal length. 18-55 would be my choice just because it’s got a good focal length for the type of environment I’m in and it’s a lot lighter and cheaper
I think my dream vlogging lens would be something in-between those two, like a 16-35mm. Although I can't afford one and even if I could I would be too scared to vlog with it because it's so expensive haha!
18 - 35 would be my go to! :)
@@sania_07 Understandable, it's a great do-everything kind of lens!
70-200 LOL
Canon 24mm 2.8 stm
hahah
The sky is blown out in all your footage.. you need to fix your settings it’s kind of cringey
Ur intro is too long 🙂
Noted, thanks!
