0:02 welcome everyone out of the woo here
0:02 it's my second channel daily Vlog
0:04 channel it's the daily woo and we're
0:07 going to do a little bit of a lens
0:11 camera review today on this particular
0:15 lens the Canon EF
0:20 50mm now I am not a self-proclaimed
0:22 offici a of camera equipment yes I do a
0:25 lot of videos no I am not an expert when
0:28 it comes to which lens I should use on
0:33 the Canon T3i which I've had for a
0:36 couple of years and I've always used the
0:38 stock lens that actually comes with the
0:42 camera the actual lens that I do use is
0:45 the EFS
0:48 18-55 mm with image stabilizer I've
0:53 always used this and I like it because I
0:55 can zoom in and out I've become quite
0:58 accustomed to use this camera and
1:01 especially this lens but a friend of
1:04 mine in Illinois by the name of Ryan
1:06 sent me was kind enough to send me this
1:09 lens that came out of that box he kind
1:12 of did some research and said that this
1:14 would be a good lens for me to actually
1:17 take better F not really photos but
1:20 better videos for future videos like
1:24 Halloween Horror Nights videos notot
1:26 Berry Farm the scary not scary farm when
1:30 the lights are down and the haunted
1:32 creatures are coming after me I thought
1:34 that I could probably use something a
1:36 little bit better than the stock the
1:40 stock lens that comes on the Canon T3i
1:43 so he was kind enough to search the
1:45 interwebs and came up with this solution
1:49 which is pretty fantastic I want to show
1:52 you the positives and the negatives of
1:56 this particular lens and for those
1:58 following along at home or for those
2:01 that would know more about cameras than
2:03 I do what we are referring to is this
2:05 brand right here Canon EF 50 mm I'm
2:09 guessing that is 50
2:11 mm now I'm probably incorrect in
2:13 assuming that but if that is the case I
2:16 am assuming that 50 mm mean that that is
2:21 basically what this is when this is
2:23 zoomed in all the way to 55 mm whatever
2:27 that is that is basically what this is
2:30 without the zooming capabilities so I
2:34 went to Disneyland this morning did not
2:36 know what I was doing but I rode Haunted
2:39 Mansion and a couple of the other dark
2:40 rides I wanted to get a feel for the new
2:44 lens this lens so basically I took my
2:47 Canon T3i I switched out the lens just
2:51 by unhooking it taking the lens off and
2:54 I put the smaller this new lens this
2:57 Canon lens the smaller not really a
3:00 pancake lens but definitely certainly
3:02 smaller you will notice the difference
3:05 if you look at the difference in size
3:07 that is so basically that is the
3:09 difference in size when it is protruding
3:11 out of the front of the camera I wanted
3:15 to show you some of the test footage
3:17 that I actually filmed I was super super
3:21 excited about how basically you take on
3:24 your pad here on the not the keypad but
3:28 the LCD screen you can adjust the
3:30 brightness so basically I turn the
3:32 brightness all the way up to five + five
3:36 usually it set on zero I took that all
3:39 the way to plus five now those of you
3:42 guys who are experts in photography and
3:44 video will probably say you sound like
3:46 an imbecile you sound like a Layman
3:48 layman's terms but I definitely am a
3:51 novice when it comes to camera equipment
3:54 I am not a Gearhead when it comes to
3:55 camera equipment even though been doing
3:57 videos for over 5 years you would think
3:59 I know a little bit more than I do about
4:01 camera equipment and which cameras to
4:03 use so I was very excited to test this
4:05 out today so I switched off this lens
4:08 here with this lens and I rode Snow
4:12 White scary adventures and then I rode
4:14 Haunted Mansion just to see what the
4:17 comparisons were between the two so let
4:19 me show you a little bit of what was
4:22 going on today let me show you the
4:25 footage I actually also now that I'm
4:27 noticing the footage I actually also
4:29 rode the monsters incorporated ride so
4:33 let me show you what the footage with
4:35 the exposure turned all the way to plus5
4:38 the brightest you can get in a dark room
4:41 this is basically what the exposure
4:44 looked like so you might not be able to
4:46 see this there might be a really bad
4:48 glare so this is
4:50 basically what we are dealing with this
4:53 is what it looked like with the normal
4:56 stock lens let me turn this down and you
5:00 can
5:01 see what it looked like you can
5:04 basically see Sully there very hard to
5:07 see the doors very hard to see the doors
5:11 all around very dark very dark in there
5:15 but basically when I switch the lens and
5:17 I put this new lens on it looks a little
5:20 bit clearer and it looks a little bit
5:22 better now you're going to see the glare
5:23 off of that light which probably
5:26 actually let me let me turn this light
5:28 off and Replay that footage you might
5:31 actually get a little bit better
5:33 Ambiance and you can actually see what
5:36 the doors look like on the regular lens
5:38 this is the stock lens that comes with
5:41 the Canon T3i so check this out there
5:44 you go you can kind of see how dark it
5:47 is in that room it's very dark yes you
5:50 can see my keypad and my Large Marge
5:52 sent me t-shirt but you're having a hard
5:55 time seeing what is on the ride but once
5:58 I switched to this this particular
6:03 almost a pancake lens we had a little
6:05 bit different a little bit different
6:08 final outcome and the whole reason I was
6:11 doing this is because I want to film not
6:14 scary farm and I want to film Universal
6:15 Halloween Horror Nights in Florida and
6:18 in California up in Hollywood and last
6:21 time I did it was having a hard time
6:23 seeing like around the mazes outside of
6:25 the mazes I wanted to get some of the
6:26 better night footage so let's see what
6:28 it looks like when you go go through the
6:30 door area at the very end of the ride
6:32 the monsters incorporated ride with the
6:37 other lens that I actually received so
6:39 check this out see if you notice the
6:42 difference so we're going in see how
6:45 bright it is in there see you can
6:48 actually see the doors you can see every
6:51 detail the nooks and the crannies of the
6:54 doors much much more well lit
6:59 going through there so a lot more detail
7:02 now just imagine what this footage would
7:04 look like if you were not looking
7:05 through the Vlog version if you were not
7:08 looking from this camera Through Your
7:10 Eyes Through The vlog's Eyes onto this
7:12 imagine if you were actually watching
7:14 this in HD you would be able to see all
7:16 those doors very very well but even from
7:19 this poor aspect of the Vlog you can
7:22 definitely tell a major difference that
7:25 it's much brighter in the dark room so I
7:27 got very very excited about that and
7:30 then I went over to the Haunted Mansion
7:31 and I filmed a little bit of test
7:33 footage and let me show you some of the
7:34 stuff I didn't do any comparison stuff
7:35 because the line was very long all I did
7:37 is just did one ride through with this
7:41 but if you've ever filmed in The Haunted
7:43 Mansion with your cell phone or whatever
7:45 you have a hard time seeing stuff
7:47 especially in the dinner scene room in
7:48 the graveyard scene room so let me show
7:51 you what the graveyard looks like with
7:54 this new kind of pancake lens from Canon
7:57 so let's take a look at this here look
8:00 at this this is in the dinner scene room
8:03 check this out look how bright this is
8:06 this is the dinner scene room as you're
8:09 going along above there there is the
8:12 house of cards in the middle of the
8:15 dinner scene room that has that great
8:18 smell if you've been in there it
8:20 actually sells smells like cinnamon it's
8:22 actually super super awesome but you can
8:24 see even though you're seeing the glare
8:26 of my Large Marge t-shirt and the keypad
8:29 you can definitely tell how much better
8:32 this lens is than the stock lens of
8:36 course we will be going into the attic
8:38 and you were going to probably end up
8:39 going to be seeing the hatbox ghost as
8:42 that kind of continues on it's actually
8:44 moving into the attic the only downfall
8:47 I think with that new lens is you have
8:50 no you have have no way not only to zoom
8:52 but you have no way to unzoom you cannot
8:55 actually see what the camera is seeing
8:57 you're only seeing what the zoom in
8:59 version
9:00 of the camera is so this right here is
9:02 the only this is you're basically when
9:05 you're showing this you're not really
9:08 able to unzoom you're only getting a
9:10 very zoomed in so there's the hatbox
9:12 ghost look how great the hatbox ghost
9:15 looks is but it looks like I'm basically
9:17 right up his
9:20 nostril because I cannot unzoom where
9:23 with the stock this 1855 one you can
9:28 actually unzoo and you can see from
9:30 where the camera is but when you zoom in
9:32 that's basically what you are getting
9:34 with this 50
9:36 mm lens so good aspects of this lens is
9:41 the fact that this is amazing when it
9:43 comes to low light look at this look at
9:45 that that's inside the Haunted Mansion
9:48 Jack Skellington looks oh so real and oh
9:52 so lit up and look at this when you
9:55 actually go in the
9:56 graveyard when's the last time on camera
9:58 that you could actually see every detail
10:01 of these guys in the graveyard and those
10:05 owls pretty freaking amazing so here's
10:09 my question how do I solve the problem
10:14 of getting farther back shots cuz
10:16 obviously if I'm using it at a like
10:18 Halloween Horror Nights or not scary
10:19 farm and I'm running around in a maze
10:22 it's going to be way too close and
10:25 focusing on this is very difficult with
10:27 this small one as well because has this
10:29 low light for whatever reason it's
10:32 harder to focus so I want to know your
10:34 opinions Maybe here's what I'm thinking
10:36 of doing is if I am outside and there
10:39 are wide shots or maybe I'm on a roof
10:41 looking down in a street with a bunch of
10:43 people Milling around in the semi dark
10:45 then this would be a very excellent lens
10:49 or if I am sitting stationary filming
10:51 something that's not too far away but
10:53 not directly in front of me this would
10:55 be an amazing lens but I think I'm
10:58 thinking that I'm going to have to use
11:00 this when I actually go through the
11:01 mazes or when I am actually up close on
11:04 someone because I have the ability to
11:07 focus and zoom in and out with the
11:10 ability of this lens by focusing zooming
11:13 in and out and out and in as opposed to
11:16 only having this zoomed in so that's
11:20 what I am thinking let me know what you
11:22 guys think or if you have any other
11:23 opinions on what I should do but that's
11:25 basically what I'm thinking about doing
11:27 this bad boy takes some super excellent
11:32 video in dark scenarios oh yeah one
11:35 other thing remember I was saying let's
11:36 say we're not using it for ride throughs
11:38 I was just testing the ride throughs
11:39 let's say I was just using it to film
11:42 things that are in a little darker area
11:44 things that aren't super up close let me
11:46 give you an example of how awesome this
11:49 is compared to the stock lens that came
11:53 with the Canon T3i I titled this one
11:56 people so let's look at some people in
11:58 this dark room over at Disney California
12:01 Adventure you will see all these people
12:03 in the darkness watch this let's hit
12:06 play and let's just watch these people
12:08 watch this so there is a line of people
12:13 inside a room a Disney California
12:17 Adventure there you go see all those
12:19 people there you can barely see them you
12:21 can barely see them now let's actually
12:23 switch lenses get rid of the stock lens
12:26 and put this lens on and you can
12:29 actually see the vast Improvement
12:32 between that lens and the new lens this
12:36 one's called people two and before I
12:38 even hit play you were going to think
12:40 that someone turned the lights on but no
12:42 one turned a light on all they did the
12:45 person being me switched the lenses to
12:48 this look at this look at this this
12:52 looks like an
12:53 entirely different room and as we do the
12:56 same pan
12:59 literally 10 seconds after I filmed the
13:02 other one with no lights turned on this
13:05 is in the dark room and this is what we
13:10 have it's
13:17 beautiful so there you go that are the
13:17 differences in the lenses the advantage
13:19 is you can actually see in a dark room
13:22 the disadvantages is on rideth throughs
13:24 or when you're up close on something
13:25 you're even more zoomed in so it's
13:28 harder to focus and it's harder to get
13:30 rideth throughs and probably doing
13:32 horror nights and stuff like that might
13:33 be very difficult but if I was filming
13:38 farm or any other outdoor activity down
13:40 the road that's very dark if I was a
13:42 ways off the shot is going to be
13:44 beautiful so that is what I am thinking
13:47 please if you are a self-proclaimed
13:50 offici anata or a guru when it comes to
13:53 canons Canon T3i these lenses please I'm
13:59 belching out of excitement please leave
14:01 some comments about what your opinion is
14:04 on this lens on the stock lens on what
14:08 the solution is to this and I definitely
14:11 want to thank Ryan and Illinois for
14:12 sending me this very cool of you to do
14:15 that I am going to find this very very
14:18 useful as soon as soon as I actually
14:20 figure out how to use it maybe my
14:23 settings aren't right maybe there is a
14:24 way I can unzoom and it's not zoomed all
14:27 the way in on someone's eyeball even
14:29 though I'm 10 ft away from them maybe
14:30 there is a solution that I unavoid
14:33 missing please leave comments down below
