Dude, you totally knocked this review out of the park. Keep these types of reviews and quality in your videos and you will be on a great way forward on this platform. Subscribed!
Thanks. This is exactly what I was looking for, RF lenses that are affordable. I just ordered the rf 85mm f2, the next one will be the rf 50mm 1.8 and one day the 35mm 1.8. I have quite a few old EF lenses for sell and the money go for new ones ;)
Solid recommendations. Currently I use the 16mm, the 28 cookie lens, 50mm and the 100-400mm for long distances. Not sure if I will go for the 35mm, but definitely want to have the 85mm.
Solid points. I now Understand that each lense has a different use case. I’ve decided on the 16mm for the calling around old towns and such. Thanks for the video
I use an R10 (crop sensor) and I don’t want to be swapping lenses all the time and I don’t care about video so my perfect photography kit is as follows: -RF-S 10-18 mm for landscape, architecture and macro. -RF-S 18-150 mm for street photography, landscape, mild macro and short range telephoto (walk around lens basically). -RF 50mm 1.8 for portraits and low light photography. -RF 100-400 mm for wildlife photography and long range telephoto shooting.
Basically my identical setup, I just miss the RF 100-400mm But I plan on getting one. I was wondering if buying the 35mm is worth it, I want to do some baby photography and, although the 50mm could serve me well, I feel like the 35mm can give me extra flexibility with details with its macro capabilities. Moreover it would be a 56mm FF equivalent.
This was just the video I was looking for, thank you. I was trying to decied if I sell my current EF lens and grab these RF. Thsi video helped out alot. thank you.
Definitely use the focal length adjustment on the 85. It really hunts if you have it set to full but if you use the .3-.5 for macro and then the .5-infinity the autofocus works just like any other lens
i have 16mm f2.8 and 35mm f1.8 and recently i rented the zoom 24 105 f4. IMO the image quality of the zoom the lens at f4 is similar to the cheap primes lenes at f4. SO if you need versality go for the zoom. otherwise the primes are fine.
I really like the 35mm. It’s fast, has macro, still has a cinema like focal range and you can always switch to 4K to crop in if you need something closer to a 50mm. Conversely, for about the same price you can buy the 16mm and 50mm!
Thank you for your advise! I think i'll buy the 50mm because of the price Keep make good content like this. You deserve more suscribers Thank you again
@@AnthonyHadleyJr Despite the 28 to be the smallest of all it offers the ability AF on/off not zo be switched via the menu but the switch at the lens. (me using BBF never need this switch, I am always AF on and just not touch the bottom when focusing manual.)
Bro as like your you tube video for cover half in short distance room which lense is better rf 16 mm pr 24 mm , Currently i have rf 50 mm but I can't record wide video because my room small
35 sucks at focus. other than that, its great. Viltrox made amazing 85mm lens that fast fast af to focus and ofcourse canon canned them. I managed to buy one before that andi love it
The 50mm has terrible chromatic aberation, and LRC doesn't have profile for it. Photgraphed a baby and almost every white blanked edge has a bit of a green tint. Something that I haven't noticed using vintage soviet lenses on RF mount. Also that slow video focusing seems artificial to me because in photomode it's pretty fast.
Those are definitely fair points, I don’t use mine much for professional photography so I don’t feel those pain points, but they’re definitely valid. The video focus on the 85 may be a bit artificial. I’m assuming it has something to do with the macro mode as well and choosing to be slow to mail focus rather than fast and overshooting it. Either way, I still like and use that lens as much or more than any of my others.
@@AnthonyHadleyJr The advantage of it is that it's a good backup lens, it's kinda jack-of-all-trades that doesn't take much space, like a small spare tire.
I did. Will probably go up Friday. But I spent so much time on a 30 second segment that I’m trying to make sure the rest of the video is solid now lol.
Love the video just subscribed to your channel. I have a question I am getting a canon full-size camera. So my question out of all the 4 which would you get I make videos at home, and I am planning on going to NYC to vlog food and different areas such as Times Square, the Empire State Building, etc.
Hey! Thanks! Honestly, I’d say it depends on how you like to frame your shots (talking head, etc.) but I think if I had to recommend one I’d say the 35mm. Good focal length for wide talking head shots, great for street photography, it has macro capabilities and if your camera has a crop mode you can turn it into a 50mm.
I didn't like all of the noise from the RF50mm 1.8 while it is focusing. It sounds like a coffee grinder! All of my Sony prime lenses focus quickly and silently.
That’s definitely fair. Having never owned any Sony lenses, I feel it’s a fair trade off for the price. But if Sony has comparable offerings for the same price - both quick and silent - then that’s definitely a leg up for them.
I fucking hate this hobby. These are considered "budget" lenses. They're budget if you're starting out as a professional in photography. With my current income, only the 50 f/1.8 is affordable without stringent saving up for 2-8 months. So my question is. Where the hell do I go to make money off this hobby. I've been grinding at shooting both photo and video in different conditions for 4 months now, I'm at around 2500 photos and 300 video clips, and I've asked around in forums and groups for opinions about the results to really good feedback. WHERE do I go to find work. WHERE.
Sheesh. Lol. But I understand that energy. The prices of “pro” lenses are definitely crazy. But the good thing is you get a lot of value -in terms of quality, relative to price - with these lenses. And it’s definitely hard to find work, especially the closer you are to starting out. Where are you located?
Love that you showed examples of how you’re using each lens. Your colours and image quality overall are excellent!!
Hey! Thanks, I really appreciate that! I wish I had time to create more, but I'm definitely trying to provide value!
that is the exact set I have, Love them.

This was awesome. I seriously loved how chill this is!!
Thanks! I appreciate it.
the 28mm RF pancake is also a beast very fun and comfortable to use. I also have the 35mm and is the same quality but in a much smaller package
Straight to the point Video! Thanks💯
And your page is crazily underrated man😅
I really appreciate that! I’m working now to upgrade the content in the near future too!
Great video the 2 lenses I settled for are sigma 18-35 f1.8 with adapter of course and rf 85 f2
You can never go wrong with the 18-35. And I still probably use my 85 as much as if not more than any other rf lens for UA-cam related content.
Solid recommendations. Currently I use the 16mm, the 28 cookie lens, 50mm and the 100-400mm for long distances. Not sure if I will go for the 35mm, but definitely want to have the 85mm.
Did you ever get the 35mm? My goodness! I love her!
1st time viewer. Subbed! Really like the smooth production
Beautiful work 🤌🏼 chefs kiss
great produced video man. the sound design is nice as well.
Solid points. I now Understand that each lense has a different use case. I’ve decided on the 16mm for the calling around old towns and such. Thanks for the video
Very nice video...(found it very helpful)
Thanks! Glad you did!
Buying the 16mm now. Thank you!
Glad the content helped! Thanks for watching!

That’s a good point. I’ve definitely noticed similar results doing so since then.
This is great. Thank you...I need this video.
My pleasure! Glad it helped!
Man, I did the same math the silver ring vs. the red L ring. I love the 24-70 performances of both EF and RF. I am struggling to make a decision.
i have 16mm f2.8 and 35mm f1.8 and recently i rented the zoom 24 105 f4. IMO the image quality of the zoom the lens at f4 is similar to the cheap primes lenes at f4. SO if you need versality go for the zoom. otherwise the primes are fine.
Amazing video thanks for your advices
Appreciate the review. I decided to grab the 24-105mm f4, 16mm and 50mm
You really can’t go wrong with those! I need to start using my 16mm more. It’s a steal for the price!
Very good video, well done!
Thanks! I really appreciate it!
I guess these are good for APS-C canon R7 too for indie filmmaking
Absolutely! Sometimes I’ll shoot in 4K on my rp which gives me that aps-c crop. These look great in that instance as well!
Good video! I just bought the eos rp for shooting music video ang product commercial. But i can buy one lens for the now. Wich one i should buy?
I really like the 35mm. It’s fast, has macro, still has a cinema like focal range and you can always switch to 4K to crop in if you need something closer to a 50mm. Conversely, for about the same price you can buy the 16mm and 50mm!

@@bradleybertrand2759 Any time! And thank you, hopefully in due time!
Nice, this gives me good ideas!
What budget lens would you recommend for landscape photography on a Canon R10?
Also grab the new 28mm f2.8. Then you have a "proper" set 16/35/85mm, and a super light and pocketable 16/28/50mm.
I love that idea! I’ve had my eye on it for a while, so I may have to!

Which lens would you recommend for an APS-C like Canon R50, if you only want to use one for photo and video.
35mm. It's equals 55mm Wich is closer to the 50mm
great job bro.
I used these also, best part is they are sharper than the Ef L series glass lol
I’ve felt similar but haven’t tested myself to make that claim. Glad to know I’m not the only one!
Even the 35 1.4 L?
Negative there buddy ha
Nice Video. What do you think about the RF 24 - 240 zoom lens?
35 sucks at focus. other than that, its great. Viltrox made amazing 85mm lens that fast fast af to focus and ofcourse canon canned them. I managed to buy one before that andi love it

Add the 100 - 400mm f5.6 - 8, and you're covered
No weather sealing is crazy
I think it depends on your use case. I don’t use my 85 outdoors much. So for the price it’s fair. But I respect the sentiment.
I bought the 28 not 35
Had the 28 been out at the time, I’m pretty sure I would have done the same lol.
Swole???
