To me, 35mm is a winner for travel photography. When we say travel photography you want to include your backgrounds and show where you are. You’ll also be able to use it to take landscape photos, whereas 50mm is more focused on portraits most of the time.
35 vs 50. If i only can pick 1. I always choose the 35. Its often easier to move forward than to move back. If i need the close up. Then i pick the 85. I often skip the 50.
Actually i kind of agree 85mm is quite good. I have a crop frame, distortion is not noticable here. I might take one of my tiny soviet fifty ( 85mm equivalent on crop frame) on my next holiday instead. That's as well as the 23mm( 35mm equivalent ) always a must!
I agree..if you use aps c sensor,35mm is more okay to use as travel lens, than 50mm.although i think it's still not quite wide enough. I prefer to bring 18-55 in my aps c sensor camera or 24-105 in my fullframe camera
35mm is suitable for street photography. But there is better lens like RF 15-35 and we don’t need brighter aperture for landscape. So I think RF 15-35 f2.8 and RF 50 f1.2 is best combination for photograph.
I think the way you describe the 2 different focal lengths as either "editorial" or "romantic" is spot on. I shot with a 50mm most of the time, and I loved the character and expressions and mood you can capture. After watching your videos I've been trying to experiment with a 35mm to create more interesting environmental compositions and its challenging! With the 50mm it just simplified the composition to capture artistically a mood or a moment. But when I use the 35mm when it connects with an interesting location, it looks really cool. Almost like a story board frame,, which emphasizes lines, the environment,, and and subjects relationship to the environment.. I'm constantly torn whether to bring one lens or the other on family trips as I don't want to fiddle around with lenses...and for some reason I dislike zooms. The curse or a hobbist!
I know this is an older video, and you may not even be looking at comments anymore, but in case you are, at 5:30 in the morning in Idaho in the US, while I am madly, trying to decide between a 35 and a 50 this is unbelievably helpful.😄 Thank you so much.🙏🏻
Personally I prefer a zoom lens for travel photography. The 24-105 for example is so versatile. You can take great portraits with beautiful backgrounds and you still have very wide angle lens at 24mm. But for night photography prime lenses are better.
I like 24mm for travel. It's great for capturing context, large buildings, landscapes, and excels in confined spaces like museums where you can't always zoom with your feet. I love my Sony 24mm f1.4. Its small, light, inconspicuous, & it performs great in low light, which also comes up a lot when traveling. As for zoom lenses, 24-70mm covers most of your travel needs, though there are times where I'd like more reach.
Nice comparison video, it is difficult to say which is better as a travel lens, I think it depends on how you as a photographer 'see a picture', the lenses do offer a different perspective on each scene but neither lens is right or wrong and certainly every photographer should own one of these lenses as both are great walk around lenses.
Love the video Julia!! Dan always captures beautiful portraits of you!! When I use my 35 in golden hour backlighting, it has a hard time capturing focus but my 50 has absolutely no problem getting focus. I feel like these two lenses really compliment each other. Where one falls short, the other one is able to compensate. What do you think?
I liked a mixture of photos from each lens. The food shots, definitely the 35mm, because you didn't have to raise up so high. The tower shot (closeup), the 50mm. The portraits of you; both. -- I carry both primes when I travel, and go through the trouble of switching out lenses, but also recognize that at times I won't have my preferred lens mounted for a particular shot, and yet it's worth carrying both for me. Thanks for taking on this subject!
Thanks for this video- so helpful! Loved the 35mm so much better it adds more depth and dimension to the images. Poland is so gorgeous would love to visit one day 💕
This was THE BEST comparison ever! You covered everything I wanted to know in order to finally decide on the right lens for my new camera :) Cause I needed a lens for fashion/portrait and I was always so unsure what would work better and it was so entertaining and sweet too! I just loved it and if I could, I would give you a million likes for it
I think so too. Possibly you can always go closer if you need more zoom, of course there's distorsion with the 35mm in comparison to the 50mm, but in certain cases you cannot just go far from a subject with the 50mm and you cannot in that case took the photo at all.
I think the 35mm is more complimentary of your travels. Looks beautiful there in Poland, especially compared to our bland ole Texas. I do love the heat though! Glad to see you all enjoying yourselves :)
Julia's prior video influenced my decision to buy a 35mm and a 85mm, but still not sure if a 50mm is necessary as well for less compressed background head shots ?? Glad to see you're still rockin your 5dMKIV Julia !!!
I usually love 35MM better - more experience traveling with this lens...BUT I recently bought a very cheap Nikkor 50mm manual lens which I used on Sony A7R and the photos came sharper than my Canon 35mm 1,4 L...so I will keep them both !...Remember also that Henri Cartier Bresson shot all his wonderful pictures with only ONE lens...a 50 mm ! The lesson is probably to stick to one lens and get the most of it...
@@ItsMoab it is the Nikkor 50 mm 1,8 pancake lens ( not the serie E ! )...it was made in Japan, all metal and minimum focus is 0,45 m which is very handy...
Useful video!^^ I am not a professional photographer, just a person who really enjo taking photos, so I have an entry-level camera. When I bought my 24mm (which corresponds to 38 mm on a full frame) I finally found my lens. It incorporates more scene and tells a story and one of the main pros is that I can take good photos in small streets or ambient that doesn't feel "closed and constricted" (I don't know how to explain it in English) . Thanks for this video^^
@@cottonuke cropping in cam and post is the same, if you don't move youself. Compression is more a matter of perspective, which depends only on how you and your subject stay to ech other (distance etc.)
Great video. I think thr 35 and 50mm is too close for me. I find that I can make either looks like the other given the circumstances. But in a tight situation 35mm would be the difference and my choice. I often skip the 35 and go 85 as the next focal length.
Hi,thanks for the video. If I had to travel with two prime lenses,I'd choose the 28mm and 50 mm lenses considering you don't always have a person as one of the main elements in the pic. I prefer most of the pics you 've taken with the 50 mm lens.Bye!
I'm waiting on my new 35mm lens to be delivered and decided to watch your youtube about lenses. You made me feel good knowing I chose the right one for me. Thanks.
Very cool video. I feel like I'd have to go with two primes: a 24 and a 50. If I had to travel with just a single lens, then the 35 splits the difference.
In my opinion the 35mm is more versatile for travel since I like to photograph where I’ve been, I’m not interested in being the main subject of the trip. The 50mm is a little too tight and limited and more useful for portrait photography. There’s more to the lens in photography, style, composition, camera, etc. My two cents.
It depends, I enjoy to have my 50 if I also have my 24 in the bag, to carry only one lens I enjoy 35mm better in most situations. So I don't really think there is a better one, it's up to you and what you prefer.
I prefer neither for traveling. I find them too limiting. On my Canon T4i, I prefer the 17-55 2.8 and on full frame the 24-105. Just my opinion. Great video, though, especially because we see so few photo videos from Poland.
I had a 35mm f1.4 II lens from canon which was a phenomenal lens!! I had to sell it to move across the country and finally picked up the 35mm f2 this time. I gotta say the f2 is very good! If you really don’t need the 1.4 aperture, it is very good quality, despite not being an L.
I own both (Nikkor 50mm f/1.8G and 35mm f/1.8G) ... they're both very good prime lenses. The 35mm is great for street photography (and in tight spots such as interiors) while the 50mm is better for portraits in my opinion. I always have both of them in my camera bag (the 35mm being really small and light , it can easily fit in a coat's pocket). Considering how inexpensive the 35mm is, it sure is worth the small investment.
I’ve used a 50 mm lens on vacation and I missed a lot of landscape and city shots because I couldn’t get the building or scene all in the shot. When I used a 35 mm lens I got a lot more usable shots and more pleasant memories. Most of the time I could get closer but I had a much harder time moving farther away and getting the shot I wanted.
@@EMAZINGERIK For me personally I like being closer to my subject for a full body shot so that's why I would rather use a 35mm for it. I have a Sony a6000 and I just don't like the way 50mm looks for full body. For 3/4, 2/3 and waist up it looks excellent and has a nice 3D pop when shooting wide open.
I finally got the Sigma 40mm f/1.4 and it has replaced both the 35mm (never had) and the 23mm f/2.0 (still have.) I really like the field of view of the 30mm. It is always out and ready. It hasn’t replaced the 28mm because sometimes I just need to carry something light.
Close-ups with the 35mm will tend to give visual distortion of the subject. Otherwise, most folks will prefer the wider perspective of the 35mm. A better question would be why would you travel with full sized, full frame cameras with the largest, heaviest large aperture lenses. After lugging that load around, you won't care which lens you are using. Better yet, shove a Contax T2 with 400 speed film in one pocket, take one or two good shots when you want (not 25) and enjoy your trip.
Just a quick note... I don't get why you should shoot a panorama (6'00") at f2.2 with an EF 35 f1.4. Clearly, this lens, if you look at the MTF diagrams, is supersharp from f1.4 to f11. But from f1.4 to f2.8 you have from 2 stops to 1 stop of vignetting. And in your shot, you see it clearly. Personally, I prefer adding vignette only in post, without needing to remove it... My personal choice for travel goes to EF16-35 f2.8 and EF24-70 f2.8. This is, obviously, IMHO. Btw, I love the way you edit the videos. Very nice and smooth and... With a little point of pink :-)
Thanks for the video. I think I’d choose the 50mm, cus I just want to watch the story and stand far away. While the 35mm is like you’re more in the story.
I have been using a full-frame 50mm f1.8 lens on a APS-C sensor Sony mirrorless camera, so the equivalent is something around 75mm. I love the dreamy bokeh and macro-like photo qualities of this lens, and rarely feel the need to change lenses. That having been said, it doesn't work well to take photos of people at a busy attraction. I have to stand so far back from the subject in order to get everything in frame, and so many people don't make the connection and walk between my lens and the subject. I'm looking forward to a wider angle prime lens next time I travel, for easier photography in busy places. Still love my 50mm tho. It's pretty much a permanent fixture in my bag.
I’m glad I watched this video.. Just yesterday I bought my new 50mm lens for my Canon M50.. When to do a few shots and I loved it.. Thanks for sharing all these wonderful tips.
Buildings are slightly straighter when pointing upwards with the 50mm. With the 35mm they look like they're leaning against the clock tower a bit too much. That's when you see how impactful perspective distortion can be, and how cropping a 35mm isn't the same as using a 50mm on a full frame, because when cropped the buildings would still be leaning more.
35mm= full story
50mm = focus on story
hahaha great way of putting it!
How about 85mm?
85mm is based on a true story of 35mm and 50mm
What about 10 - 18 on 1.6 crop sensor?
true
I love seeing the raw unedited photos first! It’s shows that I am taking fine photos, I just don’t know how to edit yet.
exactly, it took me soo long to realize this.
Shoot jpg and let them good looking in the camera!
Same!
I love your talking accent baby
Yessss. Don't delete your photos before you edit it. Even tho you hate the RAW version, but if you edit it, you'll be amazed by how good it is.
To me, 35mm is a winner for travel photography. When we say travel photography you want to include your backgrounds and show where you are. You’ll also be able to use it to take landscape photos, whereas 50mm is more focused on portraits most of the time.
take a pano with the 50
Nope I don't think the focal range is about including background, You can walk in or out I use 85 alright full body with background and even 150mm
35 vs 50. If i only can pick 1. I always choose the 35. Its often easier to move forward than to move back. If i need the close up. Then i pick the 85. I often skip the 50.
yes but then you'll have distortion so 50>
Exactly here

I highly recommend the industar 61 LD. Tiny sharp and lots of character
35 mm for landscape and street photography and 50mm for portraits
Karl Ignacio while 50mm for portrait shots. 👌🏽👍🏼
85 mm better for portrait, 50 is not a right focal length for portrait.
Senthil Raja C for a budget, its good
what about on DX? which is better ? 50 will be too zoomed in?
@@senthilrajac8596 yes it is
I think that the 35mm is great for landscape and building photography, but the 50mm is much better for portraits and close up takes.
I think that the 35mm and 50mm are both great for street.
I agree..if you use aps c sensor,35mm is more okay to use as travel lens, than 50mm.although i think it's still not quite wide enough. I prefer to bring 18-55 in my aps c sensor camera or 24-105 in my fullframe camera

I hope Canon make 18-50 f4 lens..
it should be suitable for travel photograph.
I thought with 35 mm you get more closer than 50 mm ??
I am a sucker for a good 50mm lens. It's the perfect lens for all styles of photography. Watching this video just solidified my stance on that.
Same here. I thought that watching this would push me towards the 35mm, but it actually has me thinking 50mm now.
Some photos are better without the preset!!!! and personally i think 35mm is way more interesting and flexible
True, portrait ones were better without editing
35mm is better since travel shots would want to include more background
I think the 35 mm is the way to go if you care about the background.
I think that the 50mm is better for portraits and the 35mm for landscapes. I definetely need to invest in the 35 very quick!! Nice photos btw
i would prefer as wide as possible when i go for travel..i just wanna see everything captured as memory
Can we stop and give props to Dan for a moment, he does really good photography!
I think I'm loving the 50 mm photos! I mean both are fantastic, but I love the 50mm. But I think it's really just a style preference.

If you have a high megapixel body, then definitly the 35 for more flexibility. Then you can crop after if you want.
28mm + 50mm is my jam.
35 and 85 for me haha
35 is my absolute favorite prime lens!
Personally I prefer a zoom lens for travel photography. The 24-105 for example is so versatile. You can take great portraits with beautiful backgrounds and you still have very wide angle lens at 24mm. But for night photography prime lenses are better.
Should I go for 24 mm instead of 35 mm? I think theres not much difference between 35 and 50.
Is there something wrong with my eyes, I kinda like the photos without the filter more!
True
i agree
Same here
I mean we live in the real world without filter
@@14bqdonknah just bcs shes not good at it lol
Between the 35 and 50, I would pick the 35 so that the environment can be part of the photos.
Sometimes the distortion can be very cool
@Phil Jones65 that is a nice combo as well
That's is why i love my 24-70 F2.8
No hard choice tot make.
That's right man! 16-35 24-70 FTW :-)
sure enjoy ur 2.8 😂
I dont know how many times i've watched this yet here again. Maybe you should make 2022 version of it!

I have only 50mm but I think 35 is better fot travel photography. (But i don't have enough money to buy it). Love from Poland❤
Lol I'm the same
As a Polish person I officially decided you're my favorite photography UA-camr when you said "Gdańsk" correctly
Love the video Julia!! Dan always captures beautiful portraits of you!! When I use my 35 in golden hour backlighting, it has a hard time capturing focus but my 50 has absolutely no problem getting focus. I feel like these two lenses really compliment each other. Where one falls short, the other one is able to compensate. What do you think?
Totally agree when you said 50mm gives a romantic feeling. Don't know why but it just is
I liked a mixture of photos from each lens. The food shots, definitely the 35mm, because you didn't have to raise up so high. The tower shot (closeup), the 50mm.

Those shutter sounds are so satisfying.
Thanks for this video- so helpful! Loved the 35mm so much better it adds more depth and dimension to the images. Poland is so gorgeous would love to visit one day 💕

Which did you choose?
Just purchased my 35mm for Nikon D5300 & I love it.
If I could only take one prime lens traveling, I'd take a 35mm - especially when going to a city or needing tighter shots indoors

@@cottonuke cropping in cam and post is the same, if you don't move youself. Compression is more a matter of perspective, which depends only on how you and your subject stay to ech other (distance etc.)

Just bought my first DSLR and then found your channel. Perfect. Love this video, thank you. It's so helpful for my holiday later this year.
35mm for sure! so much more room to play with for different subjects! Great to see this kind of comparison

You think of almost every scenarios that will encounter. Love it! You are very considerate!
Gdańsk, how nice :) Greetings from Szczecin, Poland! And happy easter 🐰
For "Full format" 24x36mm sensor cameras, 35mm lens (or 24mm) ! I will prefer to have a short compact tele lens fx 85mm in the pocket !
I need that San Francisco preset!
Close-ups with the 35mm will tend to give visual distortion of the subject. Otherwise, most folks will prefer the wider perspective of the 35mm. A better question would be why would you travel with full sized, full frame cameras with the largest, heaviest large aperture lenses. After lugging that load around, you won't care which lens you are using. Better yet, shove a Contax T2 with 400 speed film in one pocket, take one or two good shots when you want (not 25) and enjoy your trip.
I think a 24-70 mm f2.8 or f4 or a 24-105 mm f4 are the best travel lenses.
A great comparison to show the qualities and image differences between a focal distance and another
omg! what are u doing in Poland ? I'm from Poland (Krakow) and I love watching you and I love your photos ❤️
I think 35mm is good for close up and evening shot and i prefer 50mm in the day nomal shot. That my thought.
Magnific video ! great comparaison ! thanks :D
Just a quick note... I don't get why you should shoot a panorama (6'00") at f2.2 with an EF 35 f1.4. Clearly, this lens, if you look at the MTF diagrams, is supersharp from f1.4 to f11. But from f1.4 to f2.8 you have from 2 stops to 1 stop of vignetting. And in your shot, you see it clearly. Personally, I prefer adding vignette only in post, without needing to remove it...
My personal choice for travel goes to EF16-35 f2.8 and EF24-70 f2.8.
This is, obviously, IMHO.
Btw, I love the way you edit the videos. Very nice and smooth and... With a little point of pink :-)
Thanks for the video. I think I’d choose the 50mm, cus I just want to watch the story and stand far away. While the 35mm is like you’re more in the story.
Well.... I'm trying so hard to get a camera 😭
Like watching your video. I guess I might buy the 35mm lens for travelling. Thank you for all your info on those lenses.
I understand that the scope of video is not technical at all, but shoot architectural images at f/2.2 doesn't make sense.
It was 24-105 on my Canon but as I became a better photographer, primes became my favorite. 35mm wins for me! Then a 85mm
Considering the 35mm but my moneey 😭
I know this is irrelevant but I really love your coat btw lol
If you can’t afford the Canon 35mm 1.4L ii, why not just get the Sigma 35 1.4?
I have been using a full-frame 50mm f1.8 lens on a APS-C sensor Sony mirrorless camera, so the equivalent is something around 75mm. I love the dreamy bokeh and macro-like photo qualities of this lens, and rarely feel the need to change lenses. That having been said, it doesn't work well to take photos of people at a busy attraction. I have to stand so far back from the subject in order to get everything in frame, and so many people don't make the connection and walk between my lens and the subject. I'm looking forward to a wider angle prime lens next time I travel, for easier photography in busy places.
Still love my 50mm tho. It's pretty much a permanent fixture in my bag.
Do you travel with all of your lenses? I can't imagine being out and about with that many primes. I struggle with three!
i already struggle carrying 1 lol
I’m glad I watched this video..
Just yesterday I bought my new 50mm lens for my Canon M50..
When to do a few shots and I loved it..
Thanks for sharing all these wonderful tips.

Buildings are slightly straighter when pointing upwards with the 50mm. With the 35mm they look like they're leaning against the clock tower a bit too much. That's when you see how impactful perspective distortion can be, and how cropping a 35mm isn't the same as using a 50mm on a full frame, because when cropped the buildings would still be leaning more.
That DSLR is surely damn loud!!!
Thanks for the video helps me make sure about my decision .
Unedited photos looks much better in most of your photos.
