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
14:35
