A really great explanation of the uses of different lenses out in the field Peter, very information and beautifully explained as always 🙏🙏🙏

finally, a photography channel that is intelligent, great presenter and useful subject matter. a "must subscribe"

I got my RF 100-400 f5.6-8 a week ago. I haven’t taken it off the camera yet. So much fun, and such a crisp zoom. I’ll get back to my RF 24-105 again soon, but I love the new lens so much.

Hi Peter enjoy your photo eye nice looking photos thank you for your input on your lenes 😊

Your videos are always great and useful, keep it up.

Peter, you are raising the genre of informative photography to a new and beautiful level. Your personal style give all the time in the world to take things in. Your judgment and reasons inspire me to emulate it. You demonstrated the idea of using telephoto lens for landscape most persuasively. I loved the drone footage at the end. And for a Pom who spent a gap year in Oz in 1969-70, the driving through the countryside of Victoria suddenly made me quite homesick for Australia. - Adrian Fisher MBE

Great lesson on the selection and use of your lenses!

Pemandangan sangat indah

Great advice!! Thanks for sharing

Nice tutorial! Of course it depends greatly on the type of photography, but if I could only have one, it would be around 24-70mm. Great video, Peter!

It so much what I enjoy this flick video. It's a lots of fun. Is important to with theses F14 lenes. 😅

Amazing review!!! Nothing better than pictures in the field, showing the real usage of the lens, I really need one 100-400!!!

great lesson learned Peter. Thanks a lot I am just dealing with the issue, having the chance to get some very good glas for relatively cheap.

Definitely useful . Thankyou . Nice spot up there .

I think it depends where you live and your shooting style. In the UK I find the 24-200 superzoom covers 99% of what I need and because of the changeable weather it's good not having to switch lenses. I would want something with a bit more reach if I lived somewhere with larger landscapes though.

Congrats on the 1k subscribers! Well done and much deserved!

Thank you for a very simple-to-understand video... Cheers!

Great topic and again another expertly put together video mate - so close to 1k now! 🤩 I am with you, if I had to re-do my lenses now and only have two, I’d keep my Sony 16-35 and get the Tamron 28-200 to get that reach, but save weight compared to my current 100-400 which I do love in my “holy trinity”. Great point on the 50mm, it’s actually one of two lenses I got when I bought Fuji XT4, I got the 10-24 for vlogging and the 35mm… around 53mm equivalent, love that lens.

Brilliant video Peter. Love the location! Appreciate the lack of music too. Doesn’t distract from the calmness 😊👌

Thanks Peter for another great video. I am so glad that I stumbled on your channel by chance just yesterday . The scenery is just so beautiful.

Thanks mate nice one. I’ve just got 70-300 by accident, it’s so cool. Can’t wait to go nuts.

Thanks Peter, this is a great video and really helpful 😊🇦🇺

Just found your channel 👍🏼 good stuff

Loved this video! always great to see what other fellow landscape photographers love to use and how they use them :) I've been using my 24-105 F4L IS a lot.. as dont currently have a telephoto.. but am definitely thinking about a 100-400! :) Looove the rolling hills!

You are really impressing me with the RF 100-400 f5.6-8. I appreciate that the similar Canon zoom lens at many times the price is "better", but it seems to me that this RF 100-400 is already a great lens, and remarkably close in quality. I am wanting to prefer this lens for size and lightness when flying internationally (and price!). I'm about to buy.

The 70 to 200 is great

Great tutorial video Peter!! Always learn something new watching your videos. Keep up the great work👍

The 400 is also great

Great video Peter. Thank you. I don't have a wide angle lens, so when I want to capture a wide shot, I'll use my RF 35mm in portrait and build a pano to capture the scene. More work, but I like the end product.

Thanks for the video. Where does angle-of-view fit into your four reasons for choosing a focal length for landscape photography?

Great video - thanks for sharing! What do you think of a 24-105 mm lens, which is the 'standard' lens for many. The only disadvantage compared to a 50mm prime lens is the slower f/4 (and the bulk, of course). But as you often say, f/4 is fine for general landscape work. The 24-105mm zoom doesn't give you the extreme ends on both sides, but it gives you some play around the 50mm view.

Thanks a great video

Thanks for a great video Peter , i already have two of your prime lenses , and i will be investing in a 100,400mm lens soon you're photos are awesome by the way.

Cool 😎- I was out with my 24-85 today which is sorta like your 24-70 mm I’m thinking . I even got some Astro on the way home which was an interesting adjunct to your reasoning ; )

Nice comparisons! Thanks!

Love the aerial footage you incorporate into your videos mate. Another awesome video with a lot of useful info. If you don’t shoot hand-held in low light ( both stills & videos) those fast lenses are totally superfluous. The images of the rolling hills are wow😍😍😍😍 Love it! Beautiful work mate! Have a great evening! Cheers

Nice hat you've got on at 4:20 That logo is appealing.

Great video as always. I see you are almost at 1000 subscriber congratulations...

Great video! Thank you!

Thought provoking Oeter, I must try my Sigma 100-400 next time I am out. Usually use 24-200 f4 to travel light but guess my 50mm f1.8 is worth a go as well. Gorgeous scenery, bit like out in Gippsland

Enjoyed your video. I purchased a Canon R5 along with the 24-70mm f/4 I am ready to purchase my next lens. I have saved enough to purchase the 100-500mm RF lens to use for almost everything but wide angle. The 70-200mm f/4 is also on the forefront of my thinking. I shoot some birds, pets and landscapes. Just a hobby.

Who else here was feeling anxious watching those expensive lenses sitting on a narrow fence? Oh and he was leaning on it too!

Reminds me of Wales UK ❤

I heard the advice, "Use your least liked lens." So I used my ultrawide zoom. Gets a lot of use now. It's not your wide lenses causing distortion. It's you, and your lack of understanding. It's physics.

That's a beautiful old silver snag at the parking area.

Peter, [A] is there a Tamron 50-400mm lens that can fit a Canon RF body such as the Canon R6 Mk2? [B] Or that can fit a Canon 5D Mk2 (so that I can then use a converter ring)? I suspect the answers are No and Yes, because as I understand it Canon currently forbids any non-Canon lenses for RF bodies. My questions are: [1] is either [A] or [B] comparable in quality with the Canon RF 100-400 lens on a Canon RF body? [2] is there anything to be gained by having a zoom range from 50mm to 400mm? [3] Or does such a broad zoom range entail compromises at both ends of the range? There's not much point in putting a Tamron EF 50-200 lens through a EF-RF converter, and then wanting to use it at the 400mm end of the range, and finding it's not impressive (compared with the Canon RF 100-400 which you rate highly).

Great video Peter. The only lens that’s lacking from kit is the the wide angled zoom, which I’ll probably pick up next year. What tripod are using? Keep up the good work.

Your filmmaking skills are really advancing. Love the pushins and pullouts. How do you feel about some trippy stuff like with a fisheye for #naturephotography?

Great video. The comparison of the lenses was well presented. I thought your choice of location was excellent. I have the RF 24-105 F4 and the RF 100 Macro. Trying to decide on a nice telephoto. I was interested to see you using the RF 100-400. That and the RF 100-500 seem to be my only choices and the price points couldn't be further apart. Are you happy with the 100-400?

Nice video and comparison help to choose best suits for me. Any review comparison between F2.8 vs F4 lens (I have Nikon Z camera and S lens).

Nice video Peter and beautiful location. I think lens choice is a rather personal choice so I personally don't subscribe to the idea that you must have the holy trinity like some photographers on youtube. Since transitioning to micro four thirds I have changed my lens selection quite a bit. I live near the sea and heavy forests so don't always have a use for a telephoto. Having said that I do have 2 of them, a 14-150mm (28-300mm eq) which is my general walkaround lens and a 75-300mm (150-600mm eq) which is my wildlife lens. For landscapes I tend to use primes. I have a 15mm (30mm eq), 25mm (50mm eq) and a 45mm (90mm eq). I don't have an ultra wide because I don't like the distortion. If I need to go wide I use the 25mm or 45mm and shoot several images over one or two rows and stitch them. This often gives me hi res images of 100 plus megapixels. I love panoramas so often crop to 6x17 aspect ratio. Other images I will crop to 1:1 square. The remnants of originally starting photography in the film days shooting on a Yashica TLR camera. I also regularly crop to 4x5. I never liked the 3x2 ration of 35mm films. As you can see a very different setup and somewhat eclectic way of working. Cheers. look forward to your next video.

The three lenses I use for landscapes are: Micro 4/3 digital mirrorless 14mm f/2.5 20mm f/1.7 45mm f/1.8 APS-C weather resistant digital mirrorless 16-55mm f/2.8 weather resistant 50-140mm f/2.8 weather resistant 12mm f/2.8 35mm full-frame rangefinder 21mm f/2.8 28mm f/2.8 90mm f/2.8 35mm full-frame SLR 20-35mm f/2.8 80-200mm f/2.8 50mm f/1.8 35mm full-frame SLR 28mm f/2.8 55mm f/3.5 macro 105mm f/2.8 macro 6x7cm medium format film camera 50mm f/4.5 wide-angle 90mm f/3.8 normal 180mm f/4.5 telephoto

Thanks, Peter. I shoot with a crop sensor camera. After considerable swapping and switching, I've settled for three lenses, an f/1.4 16 - 80 mm, f/4-5.6 70-300mm w/ 1.4X lens extender and an f/2.8 27mm. (Full-frame equivalent: 24 - 120mm, 105 - 450mm, and a 40.5mm.) Beautiful location, mate. Are you willing to provide location info?

0:34 Have you ever, really, chosen a lens for its focal length?

Good advice, but why advertise a specific company - however excellent. this is just a sales promo for Canon, NOT a photography lesson

10:28 🤔

Scary watching you drive on the wrong side of the road. the video looks like no one is in the driver seat......... lol

I think it’s better if you put the camera from your back instead of showing your profile, it doesn’t showing any perspective view so i find these comparison useless and no sense.

Just like ur choose, use Nikon 18_35G,50f1.8,70_200f4
