In this seminar, Allan Weitz illustrates how to compose photographs that take maximum advantage of the creative and technical abilities of your lens system.
Thanks for your comment. Since this video, we've added captions to all audience questions, and we will continue to do that until we add an audience mic to the Event Space setup.

For all commentators, the info at 7:25 about APS-C 17mm is a typo, it should be 27mm, and to be honest I believe it should be around 35mm. anyway. hope this helps.
@Abhishek Parmar For still photography, a lens with a focal length about equal to the diagonal size of the film or sensor format is considered to be a normal lens. For a Full-frame sensor 43.4mm's - 50mm lenses are considered normal An APS-C sensor 27.3mm's - 30-35mm lens are considered normal A 4/3rd's sensor 22.4mm's - 25mm lenses are considered normal
Very good presentation full of valuable info. My only complaint would be about the questions from the audience. I'm not opposed to questions but was annoyed with their constant interruptions.
Best Video about Camera Lens I have see so far. Thank you for Explaining. How we see? what is normal? If Full frame = 43.2 mm than APS-C = 17 mm and 4/3 = 18 mm. How is this possible. Because Crop Factor is 1.6 or 1.5 and 2 I couldnt understand this because APS-C Sensor is bigger than 4/3 Sensor can you please explain?
Great lecture, although I really wish questions in these presentations could be answered at a designated time...not just on the fly when just blurted out. Completely interrupts the flow of the presentation.
"The secret of making good art...If you can't make it good, make it big. If you can't make it big, paint it red. That's it. That's all you need to know about art." :D
Unlike Thomas Fuchs I know the art of hearing and also the art of listening and I was gifted with a brain. Where or why do you get off at discrediting another person? If you have contrasting opinions so be it but keep it to yourself meng. I found this educational and informative and although things he said may be a bit shady there was a lot of knowledge passed down. The only thing I can say is keep these videos coming BH thanks.Can you add a microphone or something that captures the audience?
There are so many lies spread in this video, it's terrible! The worst part was when he said that longer focal lengths produce a shallower depth of field than a wide angle. The DOF is the same, it just depends on the aperture and the image scale/ratio (and thus the format you're shooting). A 24mm lens has the same DOF as a 24000mm lens at the same aperture and image ratio.

One of the best videos B&H has put out. Allan Weitz. I'll have to remember that name. Great speaker, great photographer. Nice!
Just the information I've been looking for. Thank yo B&H for your wonderful presenters, what a public service!
Best Video on Lenses I've ever seen. Mr. Weitz was amazing
The end of the video is the end of the presentation. Thanks for watching.
Most welcome. Thank you for watching.
Visual dynamics discussions up until the unsolicited questions take over are very useful.

Just amazing!!! Thanks BH video and Mr. Allan Weitz for doing such a good job in educating and providing high quality photographic equipment to us.
Awesome video, filled with knowledge. I watched it from beginning to the end, and I took a few notes! Thanks for sharing.
This is great stuff....great photos and generous sharing of really useful knowledge. I'd love to see more from Allan.
Great video. I'm very happy I discovered. It is beyond the typical tutorial videos. Try to see it all is excellent.
Wonderful presentation! I really enjoy listening to you talk. But now, for some reason, I feel like buying more lenses ...

Thank you,

For a Full-frame sensor 43.4mm's - 50mm lenses are considered normal

A 4/3rd's sensor 22.4mm's - 25mm lenses are considered normal
Great stuff.Great knowledge learned.Thank you.
Thank so much! great video ❤️
Yes, that's true, good catch. It should be in that range for APS-C.
Tremendously informative!
I've had my videos from BH stop in the middle of watching many times, I just reload and it starts where I left off.
Very good presentation full of valuable info. My only complaint would be about the questions from the audience. I'm not opposed to questions but was annoyed with their constant interruptions.
If 'normal' is 42mm on a 35mm camera, it's 28mm, not 17 on APS-C
Best Video about Camera Lens I have see so far. Thank you for Explaining. How we see? what is normal?
If Full frame = 43.2 mm
than APS-C = 17 mm
and 4/3 = 18 mm. How is this possible. Because Crop Factor is 1.6 or 1.5 and 2
I couldnt understand this because APS-C Sensor is bigger than 4/3 Sensor can you please explain?
why the video is not finished?
That 'Jaws' shot is from Hitchcock movie...
I WANT a B&H shop in Belgium!
Amazing speaker
Great!!!

Shame we can't hear the questions...
Nice presentation
Thanks for the feedback
The information is great. The questions are beyond annoying.

good video just wish he would stand still..and stop moving forward and back..
20% colour is a revelation and the rest monochrome

A 24mm lens has the same DOF as a 24000mm lens at the same aperture and image ratio.
Really great talk, annoying audience. Read a entry level photography book and 90% of the questions are answered!
Most welcome. Thank you for watching.
