Like you I use a 6D and the wonderful 40 f/2.8 STM pancake lens. It's videos like yours that point out the pros and cons of lenses that led to my purchase of that lens. This past weekend I purchased the 35 f/2 IS USM because the price was right for a used lens I love the focal length and it has IS which I'm sure will come in handy in low light or situations where I need a slow shutter speed.
I have the 40mm lens and I am very happy with it. Image quality is good, but where it stands out most is its compact size, making the DSLR setup so much easier to carry around.
I have the 35mm and was thinking about swapping for the 40mm for size and the quieter motor but after this review I think I'll stick with the 35mm, Thanks.
odličan video, super review. Imam 35mm canonov objektiv već dvije godine. Koristim ga sa APS-c tijelom za video. Imao sam stariji model te leće bez stabilizacije slike a pošto većinu videa snimam iz ruke odlučio sam uzeti noviju verziju sa stabilizatorom slike. Noviji model ne samo da ima odličnu stabilizaciju slike koja itekako koristi kod videa nego i pri potpuno istim parametrima propušta više svjetla na senzor i daje svjetliju sliku za skoro blendu. Usporedno sam snimao sa obje leće u istim uvijetima. Koristim ju uglavnom za video u lošim svjetlosnim uvjetima ili ako želim kraći DOF. Odličan objektiv za video.
I realize that USM motor does not age well compared to STM ones... I have the 40mm f.28 as well as 50mm f1.4. The 50mm focuses slower but those extra 2-3 light stops are life savers. If I have to choose, I would still go for the 50mm. I do wish they both have IS tho :(
if canon remake 40mm pankake whith stabilization and f/1.8 it whould be the greatest lens such format ever xD now uses 40mm everytime and happy whith it/ but use it whith crop canon body/ now want to go for full frame body/// what can u recomend in low budget?)
@ 2:58 (The statue with the man on the horse...) - Are you only using the 6D 1 and 35 f2 IS USM - No filters? It is a very good photo… Did you use any sharpening in LR or other, to get that high quality picture...
@@Camerahoarders Thanks - I just got the 5D Classic ( Because of all the hype around the colors and creamy skin tones ) but this 6D looks like it could be a better choice - I have to look into this…
Looking forward to seeing Camerahoarders play the baddie in the next Bond film. I can just hear him now "But before I kill you Mr Bond I will explain my plans for world domination in every detail".
you love that 40mm!! I went with the 50mm 1.8 because it let's me do night street photography. Also the 1.8 gave me gorgeous pictures of California wild flowers. I still think 50 mm is the better buy.
I agree with your statement. I have the 50 f/1.8 II and the 50 f/1.8 STM and the 40 f/2.8 STM plus I have the 35 f/2 IS USM on it's way from a reliable seller on eBay for me to try out. Of the 4 prime lenses I use the 50's the most but I'm sure the 35 will replace it because of the IS. I have a neuro-muscular disease and I think having a prime with IS will help me enjoy the hobby for a long time. I gave up some nice L zoom lenses because they were to heavy to lug around all day and being heavy they saw little use. Back in my film days it was the F-1N and nFD 35 f/2 that gave me a lot of enjoyment because it was the combo I used to photograph my children when they were babies.
hi, thanks for really great review. I would like to ask if 40/2.8 is not easy to autofocus damage, because front element extends out. This was problem for 50/1.8 II and STM, but they had bajonet for lenshood, which really protected the front element. Canon 40 can have lens hood, but it extends with front element so its not a real manual protection, only from sun reflections. Thanks for your answer.
In theory yes, but in practice I doubt many people had problems with physical extending front element damage. My 40 is 6 years old, and 50 4-5 years and still work perfectly.
Hello and thank you for this little video. If you had to compare this Pancake 40 mm f 2.8 stm VS Canon 35 f2 is usm, how about in terms of image quality : (Sharpness + Bokeh ...) which is better ? When I look at the results of the DxOMark, the overall score is = 28 for the 40mm against 31 for the 35 f2 ! ... Who do you really prefer ? I only do the picture, no video ! To know that it is to use on my Canon 6D Mark II ... In advance, thank you for your answers. Sincerely, Philgood ...
Nice review, i am looking at some "wide" primes for my old 5d classic and was curious how much there is difference in field of view between these two lenses? Is it worth saving some more money and buying 35mm? Thanks on the video, great job, keep it up! :)
Hello and thank you for this test. Sorry I don't understand English very well. Can you tell me exactly your opinion on these two lenses, which one is better for taking Photos only ?! Thank you for your answers. Sincerely, Philgood
Yes I am still here, just without time to make new content at this time. Thank you for bringing this fake channel to my attention, this b66k8 guy has re uploaded more than 90 of my videos to his own channel, I have reported it to UA-cam to shut it down. It happens every now and then.
@@Camerahoarders good to hear you are still here and that information about that other channel was valuable. It appeared very strange. Have a happy New Year.
Nice review, Camerahoarders. I am looking at the 35mm f/2 IS for two years now since my 50mm is too tight on my camera (APS-C), but still haven't decided to get it; don't know why.
Good comparison! Maybe I will keep my 40mm just for its great contralight quality - I now own the RF35mm which has a very effective IS (I had different 1 s or 0.6 s shots which were pin sharp, 1 out of three) and the Macro advantage. Same decision route here: Bought the 40mm as early adopter at a time when the EF 35mm was very expensive in comparison and loved it on EOS M system - now the EF-M 32 has replaced the 40mm as lens glued on my M50. But also I will keep my FD 17mm for my RP BECAUSE of great flares in all rainbow colors for video. Gives much more depth if I will produce a science fiction (that will presumably never happen, but who nows ... :)
@KSAYGON бывает намного хуже :) вряд ли нарочно - наоборот, слышно что старается... правда, на выходе как пошел за водой с дуршлагом, лучше бы на своем «родном акценте» шпарил. На ускорении 1.75 приличнее :)

I brought the 40mm, the money I saved I took the 40mm on a roadtrip :-)
Terrific side by side comparison with many photos presented for comparison analysis. Great informative video.
I just found the 35mm on eBay in new condition for round about 300 euros :-)

net net, the 35 is one notch better at 3-4 times the price! Maybe worth it for the IS for walk around.

It is a very good photo…

No filters, this was late evening shot. I shoot RAW exclusively and edit my pictures in ACR (basically the same as LR)

Where are you from?I loved your accent
Why have you paint letters canon on your SLR ?
Exactly what I wanted to know, Thanks 👍

Very similar. I prefer 40mm FOV but maybe because of the habit.
May i ask For overhead video recording (video recording of woodcarving that my hands always in motion ) is 40mm do the job ? my camera is 5d mark 2

You don't understand English and you want a English to tell you? What the fxxk is wrong with you bro
i like the 40mm lens🙂
Nice review, very thorough.
Very nice comparison video. Good work.
Nice review, i just got an canon 6D and looking for some lenses, that 40mm sound nice
The 35 mm is not a EF-S lens.
Good review!
are you still active in the channel ? I noticed your videos under a different channel named b66k8. what's going on ?
Yes I am still here, just without time to make new content at this time. Thank you for bringing this fake channel to my attention, this b66k8 guy has re uploaded more than 90 of my videos to his own channel, I have reported it to UA-cam to shut it down. It happens every now and then.
@@Camerahoarders good to hear you are still here and that information about that other channel was valuable. It appeared very strange. Have a happy New Year.
So are you going to sell the 40mm then?
No, I plan to use it when I want smallest possible camera-lens package.
What happened to you mate ? No new videos in awhile, I hope you’re okay
Yeah, I'm here. There will be new videos soon. :)
When you dropped the 40mm, I bet you said things you wouldn't want your mother to hear 🤬🤭!
great video, everything one could wish for, thanks! 🎉
Nice review, Camerahoarders. I am looking at the 35mm f/2 IS for two years now since my 50mm is too tight on my camera (APS-C), but still haven't decided to get it; don't know why.
Go nikorr bro
why is the 35 bigger than the 40?
Why is Kevin always a male name?
IS module, more glasses = better image quality

still relevant. thanks for the effort and the sharing. i am an appreciative subscriber. thumbs up.
In Nikon the 40 is better than the 35 for a lot, is not that pancake, is a real len
thank you !
Well made video. Nicely done and comprehensive.
thank you
Great video !!
nice vid m8!
ideal lenses review
Excellent !
Very funny pronunciation...
Какой ужасный акцент, такое ощущение, что автор даже не старается говорить слова без него, а может он делает это специально...
