Thanks for the lens Canon
I'm just gonna
Just gonna leave it there
should be fine
I'll just let them know, I'll text them
And let them know it's there
Should be fine
Yeah, should be fine
Look at this guy!
Look at that!
Brings me coffee!
I know
I want to try out the 11..
What is it? The 11-24..
The 11-24
11-24 f4
Everybody's been telling me like
"dude, you gotta try it"
I'm just gonna pull up my vehicle here
And I'm going to wait right outside the
the front doors of Canon
Until they bring me set lens
You watch. They'll come
they'll come
Just waiting for my lens..
Waiting for my lens
I've been waiting for you for ages
There you go
Right to the truck
Watch it. It's flappy in there
Okay hang on
Oh god
Uhhh look at that element!
Okay so I wasn't using the 24.. lens very much at all
Like I used it a couple times
but it's just like, you know what
I'd rather grab something that I could, you know
use and utilise more
on a lot of the things
and types of photography and cinematography
that I do
So, I hit up my friend to Canon
and I was like
"I need to try the 11-24
So they hooked it up
I got one on loan right now
It's to test it, to see if I like it
So, what should we do?
We should go film stuff
that's wide angle
Or like, I kinda want to put this lens through its paces a little bit
Ans show you guys a little but about
you know, why..
I mean it's 35000 dollars, canadians
So that's like, that's...
That's such an expensive lens
And I kinda want to know
why it's so expensive
and if it's cool, and if it's good
And does it suck
And is it amazing
and I feel like that's what I kinda want to do right now
So let's go do that
Hang on a second
Okay
I'm back
I did a little bit of shooting with this lens
Heres' the thing
I want to love this lens
Because, everybody I've talked to
has been like "yo, this lens uhuh
This lens is money
And it looks amazing. It's heavy, it's super heavy
Cause there's so much glass in it
You can't put a lens filter on the front
But they've actually made a little spot on the back
where you can put like some sort of filter mount on the back
I've never seen this before so
But there's a little sloth for a filter to go
in the back
Interesting
Anyway
The first experience I had with a wide angle
lens was a 16-35 and I had that on a full frame 5D Mark II
And when I saw a 16mm on a 5D Mark II for the first time
I was like "woow wide angle is life!"
I'm gonna shoot everything wide for the rest of my life
It's just so good. And I did!
I went on like a huge wide angle kick for like a good year
And then I bought the 14mm lens and that lens is insane
and incredible as well
Then I switched to a 24
and now I'm back to using a 16-35
And I thought, I've got a really exciting project coming up at the end of this month
That I'm just ... to tell you guys about. So I though
You know what? I would love to road test this
to see if it's something I want to bring with me on this project
But I gotta say
I'm not sure why everyone loved it so much
And if anybody in the comments
If you guys used this or if any of you have it, please comment below
And let me know why you love it
and what it is about it that you love so much
