I'd probably go for the 12-35 as it is quite a compact lens with a more general focal range. I use my 12-40 a lot. I've not made a video on YouTube using that equipment.

I've found the biggest issue with balancing the Zhiyun Crane is the amount of fore and aft movement. If the combination is too front heavy then it becomes impossible to achieve balance. I've had ...

Tasmanian Devil on the Tasman Peninsular Did someone say Tasmanian devil?

You are funny!!!! Keep blowing your trumpet - you're good at that.

No you said "BORRRRRRRING!" and then told us your images were "freak off the leash". That's definitely in the put someone down...

Can't even come up with a creative put down. Keep photographing the silicon.

Sorry T'n'A photos are so cliched and boring.

Soooo video is not a creative endeavour because it doesn't make people think. An interesting perspective but one I'm sure most film makers would dispute. But getting back to the 6d mkii I like a ...

I've no filter on the lens. As yet I don't know whether this is a real world issue or not. I had just taken the lens out of the box and mounted on a camera and was goofing around with it. Next ...

Sorry to burst the bible regarding purple blob syndrome, but my copy of the 8-18 does exhibit that phenomena. I've only had the lens for a few days and haven't had a real chance to put it through ...

A tough sell. Here in Australia rrp is $2800 AUD which is almost double what the Mki was going for a few months ago and $1000 more than the Sony A7ii. I suppose it depends upon how much Canon...

Chris you're not understanding what I'm saying. Yeah I know all ablout how focus is used in telling a story, been making films since the early 1980's. The kind of people who use such sophisticated...

I've been reading through the posts and a common theme is that enthusiasts and professionals don't need good video AF they must learn to do it manually. Yet on video centric forums and blogs by...

My own personal experience is with the Olympus EP-5 and the EM1 and have found them to be OK. The ones on my Canon EOS550d and 6d are much worse. I sometimes make impromptu video recordings ...
