    I recently started studying cameras and lenses to film my nephews football games. I've watched SOOOO many videos to help me understand the technical info and its so hard to grasp, but this video is the single most informative video i've come across so far. I finally feel like im learning what I need to be better with the camera. THANK YOU.

    Hi, thanks for this video. Im not really a beginner, I wanted to buy a Panasonic S5ii as and investment for the future but about lensens It doesnt have really cheap options. I wanted to go for 24-105mm F.4 with stabilization but I'm worried that I wont have enought bokeh in the background while filming, also Is expensive (1200€). With almost the same amount of Money I can buy a 35mm and a 85mm boh 1.8 but unfortunately without stabilization. What shoud I chose? I dont know what kind of works Im going to do...

    So on a aps-c sensor it crops in AND zooms in right? So a 30mm lens on a full frame camera will zoom in on an aps-c camera to 45mm right? So technically you get further zoom on aps-c cameras?

    • @MrPaulXavier
      @MrPaulXavier  8 місяців тому +1

      Crop in and zoom are used interchangeably here. When someone says it CROPS IN, they basically mean that the resulting image will look ZOOMED IN. So really one and the same. Either way you are correct. The final image is more zoomed in

    Crop factor only matters if you’re buying a full frame lens- you made it sound like all lenses would be affected but that’s not true. For example the sigma art 18-35mm f/1.8 is built for APS-C, there is no crop calculation to do and that lens cannot be used on a full frame camera without having the edges of the image missing.

    • @MrPaulXavier
      @MrPaulXavier  7 місяців тому

      If you compare the image from that 18-35 on a crop sensor camera compared to an 18-35 lens on a full frame camera the first will be significantly more zoomed in due to the crop sensor.

      @@MrPaulXavier They make crop sensor lenses- that specific 18-35 I mentioned is a crop sensor lens. If you put it on a full frame camera you would get dark and distorted edges in the image because the lens doesn’t project a large enough image to fill a full frame sensor.
