VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
A lens is only as good as the photographer using it. I know...deep stuff there, Nick. GROUNDBREAKING observation. But hey while we're on useless, obvious platitudes...the best camera is the one that's with you and cameras don't take pictures, people do.
Can you believe some people actually say those things thinking they're f'ing Aristotle?
Anyway, let's talk about this video. Yessir we're covering lenses in this one as I continue my multi-part video series all about 6x17 photography. Yay! Lenses! Everybody loves good glass. Oh yeah...if you want to sound real professional, don't call your lenses "lenses", call 'em "glass." Here, example sentence: "Yeah, man, that 210 is the best piece of glass in my bag. It'll make your eyes bleed."
I'll be covering the lenses I use for my 6x17 photography and what kinds of views they'll give you. I'll also go into extensive explanations on focal length, angle of view, crop factors, aperture limits, image circles, and filters. Even if you're not interested in 6x17 I think you'll find something useful here as it applies to lenses in general. You should probably at least be into photography as a whole, though. If you're just, like, a boat guy or something then I doubt you'll care much for this video.
Thanks for watching!
