Thank you! This was news to me.

I have two zooms, which take me from 28 to 600mm, and two primes, a 90mm and that most delicious of lenses, the 50mm. The one that is most expensive is the last, with its f1.4 max aperture, and it's my go to. Great for video and even better for stills. I was always told, 'If the object you are photographing isn't big enough, walk nearer,' and it works. The 90 is specific for heads only to whole body, the smaller zoom for when I don't know what I'll be confronted with. I take the 50mm on every shoot. It's light, compact and gives a sparkling image. I love it.

I really like your videos and look at many of them, but, please, speak a little bit slower in the future! I think that many of us looking at the videos don't have English as our mother tongue and could be helped if you slow down a little (Yes, I always add subtitles but still...)

youtube has a slowdown or speed up function. Learn how to use it here:support.google.com/youtube/answer/7509567?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop#:~:text=Go%20to%20a%20video.,like%20the%20video%20to%20play.

@@videomaker I tried it now and it really works! However, it's not negative that the speaker now and then makes a short pause... ...a second, or so. It gives the listener a chance to reflect what is beeing said.
