Angela & Ronnie Wedding | St. Charles, MO
We are going this year. My fiance, 8 year old, and 8 month old! Lol cannot wait!
Make sure to find me and say hi! I’ll be doing the video again!
good info, but might I suggest less talking head, more examples with your voice over them. cheers.
Nobody needs to see my face huh. 😆 thanks for watching!
Canon's wifi / bluetooth app / process is such a PITA!!!!! I have been saying this for years. A $400 GoPro or DJI Oslo's process is SO much easier! Makes me so mad...
There is no doubt it’s time to update!
👎🏻
No? The lens? I love it! It still lives in my camera most of the time.
Is this lenses good for taking close up shots for insect, flowers etc
Sure is!
Interesting. I am really annoyed with the rf 35. Hair, trees, outline of cars... Simply everything has incredible green and magenta chromatic aberrations. It's a nightmare to fix all this.
The rf35 L version? Or the macro? I haven’t picked up a new L version, I don’t use my 35mm for some of those reasons
And for some reason i dont like the 35mm look, pity as it looks like a decent lens with is. Really annoys me tbh, makes me feel like I miss something😂
Yea, curious what the new 35mm is like! I haven’t tried one yet.
Got the 28 f2.8, 50 1.8 and 24-105 f4. Maybe will get the rf 100-400 if i ever get into wildlife
That’s a good kit! How do you like that 28? I’m tempted to try it out for its size!
Hey Tony. What am I doing wrong? I shot my first wedding video and my dance floor footage is unusable with craaazy noise ast only 800 ISO?
What camera are you shooting on? You might be shooting too dark if you’re at 800 iso.
@@TonyMellinger Thanks for the reply. Canon R6ii. F2 35mm 50fps 100ss. Should have tried 30 and 60 but it was a wedding party which I prefer slower down
@@samdub if you’re only at 800 ISO, it’d start there and keep your slow motion footage. I am ok cranking the iso to at least 8000 and still find the footage useable
@@TonyMellinger This is why I think I must be doing something wrong. Would going from 1080 to 4K help? Also, it was clog not clog3 but I didn’t think that would affect the noise.
nice video, i guess you shoot strictly on clog. can i ask your autofocus settings for the r5 ?
being a full frame lense, what does this become on the R7?
This would be a 38-168mm
Can o use this lens with my canon rebel t100?
Yes if it’s an EF or EFS mount which I’m pretty sure the t100 is an efs mount
I think the borderline obsession we photogs have had with the old f/2.8 has become a bit... Obsolete. My 6D Mk II has such insane high ISO performance, combined with both lens AND body image stabilization, that I can get shots at f/4 (or higher) that even a decade ago you couldn't get with any kind of quality with even a 1.2 or 1.0 lens on the best body money could buy. Use a bit of talent as far as bokeh goes, and keep a prime or two (maybe 35 and 50?) for when it's absolutely necessary to have that kind of speed, and you'll be good for just about everything save counting the beads of sweat on a QBs forehead from 90-yards away. Then again, with the sub-$700 100-400, you can still get those beads of sweat, maybe even under the lights. You can use an extender, too, but that will cost you another 1-2 stops, and may really limit you to mostly daylight... I think. But, most outdoor sports are played during the day, anyway. Then again, with the high-ISO and IS tech now available, maybe it's actually fast enough. Maybe someone who reads this and owns one might have better insight.
I’m right there with ya! The low light capability is crazy good! And I don’t mind the f4, you can typically get decent background separatiom
rode video mic pro looks like is not compatible with my r6 mark 2 how did u manage to use it?
How is it incompatible? You can just plug it in the mic jack 🤷🏼♂️
WAIT, HOW DO YOU EASILY CHANGE YOUR ISO? TRYNA MAKE SNSE OF IT BUT IM FAILING 😂😂 Beautiful video really
The easiest way I’ve found is set it to your control ring 🤩
Thank you. I’ve owned both EF versions and now have the RF version which I luckily got in a kit when I got my EOS R (now moved to R5). Great one lens solution but in RF I don’t think there is a single zoom that doesn’t extend when zoomed. I don’t shoot video but do any Canon RF zooms work well on a gimbal? Not sure what zooms are internally focus these days except I have a Sony 70-200/2.8 GM II is. So I’m not really sure how videographers work around this issue. Oh well, take care.
I use zoom lenses all the time on a gimbal. I’ll typically balance this around 70mm and then if I want to go in or out I can’t and it doesn’t mess with the balance as much. Works like a charm though!
On a hot day yesterday, I'm ready to take some exterior home pix still and my R6 stopped working. Nothing worked. Then a bit later, I could view though the eye piece but the rear screen wasn't showing when I took my eye off the eyepiece. I called Canon this morning and they thought that I should send it in for service.
What was the verdict? That’s kinda crazy.
What happend to the 17-40
That’s an EF lens, isn’t it?
--- I'm considering purchasing the 70-200 f/4 lens. I shoot at events, sometimes in conference rooms where it is darker. Do you think it will perform well in such conditions? I can boost the ISO and use a flash. This would be my second lens, the first being the 24-70 f/2.8. I work with the Canon R6 II.
That would work just fine. I actually have the 24-105 f4 I use that same way.
You know… I assumed you were talking off camera flash, as long as you can light your subject
So how would you compare this lens to an EF-s 17-55 2.8. I use the 17-55 on my Canon R7. Subsequently I’ve picked up a used Canon 5Dmark ll. I wanted a wide angle lens to use on a full frame sensor. I purchased this lens recently. Haven’t even had a chance to use it yet. I figured it is a a great price for an L series lens. Wanted to do some landscape photography and some other stuff. What do you think?
My suggestion would be there’s quite a few cheaper RF/rfs ultra wide zooms you may want to check out now. They may be a little more, but the quality is going to be so much better.
I’m fresh and just picked up a Eos 800d (7ti I think) to have something to start with and I’m buying a camera so I can take pictures of my daughter and her Spanish partner who are dancing ballroom/Latin and it can be pretty dim but I don’t want to spend a fortune! I’m thinking about upgrading to something older but a full frame later on like the Eos 5d mk3 or 6d mk2. Will the f4 be good enough you think?
It depends how much light you have where you’re taking photos. The new RF cameras handle low light so so much better than the older dslrs. You are right though, the new camera could get you spending a fortune. A full frame will def help you with low light over your t7i and a faster lens like a 50mm f1.8
Great tips! Would you know any setting that i can tweak to have better autofocus in low light on the r6mark2? Especially in photo mode… i do salsa events pretty much low light
I’ve found the auto focus works better when you over expose. Just don’t shoot too dark and that may help you!
@@TonyMellinger thank you
For the price Great lens 😊
Sure is!
I am buying a used EF. Can I get an RF? I have a cannon 5D mark iii
Not with a 5D, you have to use an EF version
Not sure you stated what it is that you don't like about image quality. Wish you could elaborate.
I really need to maybe give it another shot, I just never fell in love with the photos or video I got with the lens.
What’s your opinion on it for indoor with natural light from window ? Or should I get a lens adapter and get a more affordable 24-70 mm ef . I just ordered the r6 mark ii. I want to shoot indoor with natural window light, still and video. Eventually continuous light and out door for product style photography of my art for my webisite, reproductions etc. or since it’s the r6 mark Ii can I get sharp low grain images at f4 with slower shutter? I got an open box deal on the r6 mark ii and it came with that f7 max lens but plan to include it with my other lenses to trade in for the better.
You should have enough light for this lens if you open the windows and want natural light. I do that fairly frequently. It’s actually helpful for video because your shutter speed is 1/50 so that lets in quite a bit of light. Experiment with a lens you have now at f4 and see how it treats you in your environment
The IBIS on your camera killed the lens for me!
Yes. I heard they’ve worked on that with the newer models
Omg
🔥🔥🔥
I have a R7 and just one lens RF 18-45mm, and i wanna know what the best next one for wild life.
You need to get a telephoto lens. All depends on budget. You could look at the 70-200mm 4f. There’s some cheaper options that that though
How would you compare this lens to the sigma 17-35 2.8-4 ex hsm asp?
I’m a canon lens snob 🙈
Intro volume was awful, violent! My years are still hurting😢
Yea. That got fixed in other videos 😂
I am New. How is the macro lens a telephoto lens?
The 100mm is a 1:1 macro lens. Beautiful!
amazing job as always my dude
Thank you!
1:49 "lenses do not age as fast as technology" ... You dont consider lenses to be technology? Ok.. Im not going to waste my time watching any further.
You have many more generations of a camera compared to a lens
@@Stan_the_Belgian its the wording man, the wording
It’ll be curious to see how they continue to update lenses with firmware updates now. I really think the 70-200 is the only one I’ve seen come through. Cameras def age faster than lenses. At least in my opinion
EF lenses are still viable. Example, the EF/RF versions of the 70-200 2.8L are almost identical in optical tests and the EF version will never be a dust sucker as all functions are internal. I may buy a RF 35 but if I had the money, I'd buy the EF 35 1.4L II in a heartbeat.
I don’t have any more ef lenses. You’re right, you can pick them up for less now, but the simplicity of not messing with an adapter and sharpness of the RF glass won me over. There’s also some really interesting RF lenses now like the 10-20mm and 24-105 f2.8. We’ll see what they come up with next!
Which lens adapter model used?
RF control ring adapter
Tak for en rigtig god fortælling. :)
You’re welcome!
Hey, i have a ef 55-250 is ii (non stm), will the autofocus work on r50?
It should work… I dont know why it wouldn’t.
Very helpful! thank you TM!
Thanks for watching! Glad I could help!
Thanks for the vid! But, really wish people would stop negatively comparing the f/2 to the f/1.2; there is a $2000 price difference for fork sake!!!
Sure is. I should give it another shot, huh!
Looks fun. We have a 2002TJ Wrangler. Lifted. New tires. Not selling. My wife loves it still. We also have 2009 Ram 4 door, with 4X4 too still only 63K miles. Not selling that. My bother in law has a diesel truck with 850K miles and he says its still running well. He drives truck for a living too. So expected. Still its amazing these diesel trucks get such gets good fuel milage. Ours gets 21 MPG. and I hope it will last a long time too.
I miss my 02 TJ. it was in that dark midnight blue, loved that jeep!
i dont get the hate this cameranis getting for its video capability
The biggest problem I had was the noise in LOG if it wasn’t at or close to 400ISO. It wasn’t pleasant.
I have EOS R and RF 50mm 1.8 STM and EF 85mm 1.8 USM :) Work fine for me.
What a kit!
Great thing about Sony it's that Sony don't force you to crop mode when you install an APSC lens on full frame camera. You can choose crop or full frame mode. So, you can film or shoot with the vignette and then crop for stabilization or composition in post. It's a shame Canon (or Nikon) forces to crop mode when installing an APSC lens on full frame cameras
That’s interesting. I didn’t know that.
Do you shoot a lot of weddings with the F4? How does it handle low light?
I just got the same question
My second shooter uses the RF 24-105 F4 and one of my second even uses the 70-200 F4. They work pretty well. Low light does become a problem during the reception but I typically light the dances and speeches, etc. so it still works for that. It would be crowd shots and candids it wouldn’t work well with. You could use the 24-105 F4 for most of the day and then switch to the 50mm f1.8 if you’re looking for an economical alternative.
The 70-200 f4 isn’t typically a problem for the ceremony because there’s lots of light on a church platform usually. If it’s outside same thing…. Lots of light.
Thank you so much for the respond 😊 greetings from Joplin, Missouri
Just re-watched this one and it brought a tear to my eye, seeing my youngest, Gwennie, being interviewed. Cannot wait for Jeepstock 2024!!!!
It’s so good!!
Just got my R6 Mk II a couple of weeks ago, and part of the purchase was an EF >RF adapter so that I could use my beloved 24-105 with the mirrorless. It's as good a pairing of camera and lens as I've ever seen.
You should try the RF version. It’s my daily workhorse, i absolutely love it
I didn't know 'L' series lenses were suddenly 'kit' lenses.
If it comes in a kit! Why not?! I’m ok with that!
How do you connect the go 2 mic to the R6 camera please save me sir 😢
You should just be able to plug it into the mic port! Easy

Hello Master : Please help and give me some advice, The camera I am currently using is Canon EOS R10, The kit lens used with it is (RF-S18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM) My main subject matter is toy photography. The secondary shooting content is street photography or portrait photos. Now I want to buy new lenses, after watching your video, Want to compare between Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 STM and RF85mm F2 Macro IS STM After making a choice, I would like to ask you to give me some advice on which lens is more suitable for me? Thank you.
I would suggest the 85mm macro. If you can spring for the 100mm f2.8L, that’s the lens i would suggest for toy photography. That’s a pro lens for product photography! You could also use that for street photography
@@TonyMellinger Master, thank you for your reply🙏🙏🙏
