Hello again, Izzy at Digital Goja
showrooms. Today we're going to take a
look at how to get some beautiful
Bokeh / Bokah or depth of field, however
you want to pronounce it.
We're going to show you how to do it
with some of the more popular Canon
prime lenses, their 50mm and their
85mm both on crop sensor and on
full frame cameras. So we're going to
take a closer look and make sure that
you can get some beautiful imaging done
with prime lenses and wonderful bokeh. If

videographers and whenever in Miami come
visit Digital Goja showrooms. Remember Digital
Goja showroom has one of the nation's
largest in-store selection of authorized
Canon cameras and lenses.
Now, first one up here is the Nifty Fifty, this guy is a
51.8 STM, really popular lens, still an
EF mount lens so that means it will work
on your full frame cameras and on a crop
sensor camera you take into consideration
the 1.6x conversion, but it still gives
you a very decent Bokeh, even for
economical prime lens like this. Now of course
their premium is this guy,
the 51.2, they both have eight aperture
blades but on the 1.2 they're rounded to
give you that softer more creamy bokeh
effect, of course the lens is
considerably larger, heavier and pricier,
but if, that is your end result, you want
some beautiful blurred out background
and that soft bokeh effect the 1.2 is
the leader when it comes to the 50mm
lineup from Canon and then
we can also step up into their portrait
lenses the EF 85mm 1.2 L series
version 2, again, eight-rounded blades
that give you beautiful background blur
and that soft bokeh effect. Now, they
still have their tried-and-true, this
guy's been around for quite a while, this
is their EF 85 f 1.8 usm, this lens is
considerably more economical and lighter
weight than
it's big brother in the 1.2 and
again being an EF mount lens this will
work on both your crop sensor camera,
like your 7Ds your EOS, your Rebels, your 80Ds
and of course meant for the full
frame factor like your 5D Mark IVs
your 6Ds, your 1DX Mark IIs and so forth.
This guy also has eight aperture blades,
they're just not rounded like it is with
the 1.2 and plus that beautiful 1.2
f-stop gives you a little bit more
advantage when it comes to blurring out
your background, but again, the 1.8
is not a slouch, I'll show you some
images, they will be posted up in the
video so you can see the difference
between both of these lenses being
worked with a crop sensor and a
full-frame camera. So now you'll be able
to figure out which route you want to go
to when you want to be able to work with
a prime Canon lens to get that
incredible bokeh effect.
Happy shooting!
