All right everyone, 2 2
So a little bit more about the kit lens versus the more Pro level lens. 3 3
Here we have the canon 18 to 55 3.5 to f 5.6 kit lens 4 4
and canons L series mark 124 to 70 f 2.8 5 5
so right off the bat you can see obviously there's a huge size difference 6 6
and why that is is that? 7 7
This lens is F 2.8 so it allows it much more light 8 8
also the quality you can just sort of tell from the build this has a lot more metal 9 9
behind it this feels very plastic. 10 10
Now you can see here in these sample photos 11 11
right off the bat you can really tell 12 12
that there's there is an image difference we're sort of a quality 13 13
difference between the two lenses the 2470 just looks a little bit crisper, 14 14
I think the fall off and the bokeh is much nicer and you get that F 2.8 15 15
which allows a lot more light in also as you zoom in with this kit lens, 16 16
it goes from a 3.5 to a 5.6 so you're losing almost two whole stops of light, 17 17
when you zoom in to 55. 18 18
So that's really the difference between these two lenses, 19 19
you can sort of seeing the quality the f-stop 20 20
obviously the amount of light that's allowed in 21 21
is a big difference but I think it's important to note that there are 22 22
there is a mark 2 version of this lens, so you're able to fire it fine mark one 23 23
versions which are still great pieces of glass for much cheaper.
