Fantastic video ! Thankyou

Hey Paul I have been learning from your amazing this how to get the most out of my camera. I own a canon eos 70D as my intro to dslr I was wondering if you have any recommendations for crops lens for this type of camera as I’m looking to upgrade. I currently own the 75-300mm and 24-105mm. My interest are the following: landscape, street photography and architecture, night photography and photography and my woodworking projects. If there’s nothing worth upgrading to to progress my my learning with the things I want to shoot would upgrading to a more modern canon camera help my choices? Or should look at another brand like Sony A70 line up so I can have more choices in lenses be the way to go. curious to know your thoughts on which way to go. 😊

Great videos I’m glad I found you I have a canon rebel 2000 what’s the best lens for photos ?

Thanks Paul for this great and informative video!

Always great information. Thank you

💯💪

excellent video, I'm a beginner and considering camera options and lenses,so this helped a lot.
I'd love to have your opinion on which direction I should be going with camera purchase please.
my interest will be street, but also woodland shots while walking my dog etc.
budget is only around 300,which I know is small, so I am considering a used camera, to try and get more for my money?
I absolutely love the style and look olympus om-d e-m10 mark iii,thanks Ian

Subscribed because of this mans smile

Thank you you’re the GOAT!!

Awesome, Paul❤❤❤❤

Awesome!

A question occured to me about prime lenses. I know the focal length is fixed, but is the aperture also a fixed value? Or can you close down the aperture to achieve a greater depth of field or to get a sunburst effect in landscape compositions? Maybe you covered that and I got distracted and missed it but I would like to know. Thank you for all the informative photography videos you make available for free as I cannot afford costly photography courses living on a fixed income at present.

Great video. I am new to photography. And for me canon t7 with nifty fifty and 75-300mm lens

You said when using a tripod to turn IS off, but you didn't explain why?

Just started in photography...thank you

very helpful for me who try to begin my dslr trial….tq !!!

Literally amazing explanations with little tips sprinkled in throughout. Thank you.

this was awesome info

I am a crafter and I make wreaths and door hangers. First time buying a professional camera Canon. It has been quite a journey. I am learning everything by myself but thank you for the info. I hope I learn the best way to take beautiful pics of my wreaths

I think that cutaway you did while talking about monopods was an Aussie Rules game! Great place for a long lens and a monopod! (Go Bombers!)

Thank you for your tutorials. It's helped me A LOT! I always search your videos to help me with an issue. You make it easy to understand...👍BEST on here...🏆

Thanks Paul. As always, the video is so helpful. Thank you. 👍

Thanks Paul. Very useful. How do I purchase the right lens hood for different lenses ?

Great video. For taking pictures of art pieces and sculptures with a blurred background would I just use the 50mm 1.8. Or would a 10-18mm work better? I'm brand new and just bought my first camera. The sculptures are usually less than 2 ft tall so pretty small

I love your channel so much, nobody does it like you do... Great teacher...

Thanks a million for the priceless info you give us. Question, is it safe to remove/change lenses while the camera is powered on? and what about memory cards? Specifically Canon cameras. Thanks!

It was very helpful . . .

Good description. Thanks Paul!

Hi I have the canon 2000D with kit lens what would you recommend for landscape photography on. Budget.

Thank you Sir. This helped me to gain more information..

Probably the best video I’ve watch that explains lenses!

This was exactly what I was looking for, a great beginners guide! I had no idea about prime lenses until now! Thanks so much and looking forward to watching and learning more from your videos.

hi Paul without a macro lens what's the best lens to use for close up shots I have a cannon EOS 80D camera with a nifty 50 lens and a 18- 55 lens and a 55-250 lens

Are Tamron Lenses alright for a canon EOS250D and do they fit 📷

This video is underrated. Period.

Very useful and clarity explanation, thank you and greetings from Costa Rica

Thank you for this...I loved learning what all these numbers mean. I am new to the camera world and searching to buy my first dslr camera and all the info in overwhelming...thank you for making it make sense. Any suggestions for a first camera? Will be used for wildlife around the house and vacation at national parks...

Hello Paul. Question. The EF or EF-S mount, have a diameter or designation? Or any EF or EF-S will fit my Canon EOS. (1200D by the way). Thank you.

Thank you so much! This video was so helpful to me.

Are canon Ef lenses ending?

As a novice just bought a canon eos 1200d. Your videos are helping a lot, written instructions can be very confusing
