I think the main reason why 50mm feels tight to us now is that most phone cameras are wild angle. It's interesting that older generations used to capture most of their memories at 50mm because that was the most common focal length, while our memories are captured in wide angle on phone cameras

When I was a student of photography..the best advice I got was the 50mm lens. Its fast, sharp, perfect perspective and great contrast. Depth of field is perfect (bokeh is not depth of field...). Over 40 years later, I still use a 50mm lens for weddings and portraits.

Nice that you mentioned Elliott Erwitt, sadly we lost him yesterday. I have all his books and he was a major influence on me for decades. Funny, but starting in the late '60s and early '70s, the trend was to forgo the 50mm as a standard lens in favor of the 35mm for journalistic type photography. I used the 35mm on my film Nikons and Leicas so much that the 50mm almost looked like a short telephoto. I doubt the 50mm made up 10% of my photography in those years. Now 50 years on, I have "rediscovered" the 50mm (35mm on my Fujifilm cameras), and it usually stays on the camera for months at a time. It allows me to exclude the clutter and get to the thing that made me stop to take a picture. I enjoyed your video, it just popped up in my recommendations, but i have subscribed and look forward to more from your channel.

Exactly right. When you start out with interchangeable lens cameras, you want super wide. As the years pass the desired focal lengths get longer. Then you run out of money and sell all the big wide and long lenses and end up with a TTartisan 50mm f/1.4 ASPH and love it!

Genre aside. The 50mm has a very close to direct relationship to our natural focused frame. There is a sense that the aspect of framing feels right. What you are saying is absolutely correct. I traveled Nepal with a 50/2 in 2016, it worked very well for everything, landscape included.

50mm used to be the standard lens that came with a camera. So you'd get practice with that. With autofocus, zooms became the standard lenses, so it's not surprising that people's 50mm skills atrophied. With all the different sensor sizes these days, a little more thought is required. Most of my best 35mm shots were on a 50mm lens: it's the only indoor lens I had.

I'm not a professional photographer but an amateur. I only use zoom lend because it allows me to zoom in out at will. But I never understood the focal length affect. I just want to put everything in the background inside the frame and the subject so tiny lost in the picture. That was my amateur style. till one day I met Mr. 50mm In 2016 I bought the 50mm lens because everyone saying 50mm is famous and it is fast sharp blablabla... Then since I used that 50 mm lens I rarely used the zoom again ever. The 50mm makes every photo I took looks like was taken buy a professional photographer, my family told me that my skills did improved and the pictures are so nice, even then the background is tighter. The Zoom have the 50mm included but because it makes me lazy so I end using wide angle or too tight and it mess me up. Add to that the zoom is so slow in the low light situation and it force me to use wide focal because it is the only one a bit fast. Love the 50mm. Interior pictures is challenging but not impossible. I want to add that when you are shooting with 50mm you are not close to your subject, you keep a distance which make both of you confortable. Difficult for me to explain it. When I use the zoom I find my self too close to the subject that activate their curiosity and distract them. The 50mm solved that issue specially for street photography during my holidays. Shooting with 50mm it keeps me distant from subject with minimum interaction, this means i can focus on what I'm doing and avoid been distracted and got my gears stolen in the street. Already happens once.

Being a poor hobby photographer, on my first full frame Camera I decided to start with a 50mm f1.8 lens and Just added a 70-300mm Zoom lens with Stability control. I do everything with only these two lenses. Another tip: Think "Would I put this photograph on my wall and love looking at it?"

Up until a few years ago, my most often used lenses were the 28 and followed by the 50. Now, I am leaning more towards the 50, for purposeful framing and composition, rather than reactive. Much like you have espoused. Thank you

I also always wanted to buy a 50 sooner or later , but then I got convinced into buying the 55mm Sony Zeiss f1.8 and I was overwhelmed by it from the start. And that's my "50" lens now and it's going to stay it, it's just produces excellent pictures in daytime as well (and especially at night time). So whenever I see a clip talking about using a 50mm lens, well my 55mm is my nifty-fifty :))).

Originally had a Fujifilm XF35 1.4 which was great, but it wasn't until I ended up with the cheaper/newer XF35 F2 that I really started to enjoy using this focal length. The F2 has a different quality, and was more responsive in both auto and manual - it just feels at home on my X-T2. I have enough giant lenses, and the 35mm F2 is the smallest/lightest in my kit which makes it an easy to choice as a primary or secondary lens to take.

I've tried different lenses but 50mm is my "soul" focal length. It brings me closer to what I see and it grounds me to the subjects that I am taking photos with. Also, its small and quick to master (in use) but in mastering it in terms of philosophy, the lens gives you loads of lessons.

Thank you for this video. I am a street photographer. My primary focal length is 50mm. As you suggest, 50mm is the focal length we normally see. I like this focal length so I don’t have to get too close to my subject. It is easier for me to place my subject in the frame. I like the 35mm field of view too. I have to be more aware of what is happening on the edge of the frame than 50mm. 28mm is too wide for me. I use this focal length when going to a parade or demonstration. Lately I’ve been using the 85mm field of view. As you suggest, this is a great lens for capturing details. Saul Leiter, one of my favorite photographers used this focal length. When using this focal length I am forced to focus my attention further down the street than I normally do. The focal length dictates how far in advance of where I’m walking to give my concentration. Each focal length has their pros and cons. I live between 35 and 85mm. I need to use the right tool for the right job. Mask On Nurse Marty (Ret)

On my Panasonic GX8, I use my M43 Olympus 25/1.8 (=50mm in full frame) for 80% of my photos. I like the 'natural' look and lines of this lens without any distortions - just like good storytelling, where the listener feels 'naturally' familiar with the story. I don't need a zoom, I move closer or further away from the subject to compensate for. To frame something larger, I use the manual mode for as close as 13cm from the subject. Contrary to my zoom lens, I like the 1.8 aperture for a shallow depth-of-field and nice bokeh, in lowlights, I can shoot using a lower ISO for sharper and clearer pictures. This lens became my versatile Swiss knife for portraits, landscapes, scenery, and even close-ups.

This is the best advice I've seen on how to approach shooting with a 50mm. Now I'm curious to see what other hidden gems can be found on this channel. The tip on covering everything on three's (establishing shot, focus on the action/subject, detail shot) reminded me of a guideline that is quite common among video documentary makers to get "good coverage" in order to make sure the editor has material to tell the story and cut the sequence.

This is an eye opening video. Since I've got only one lense which is 16-55mm(FUJI), I'd try to take photos only at 35mm one day. That would be really fun and interesting. Thank you for a brilliant content! Cheers!

I took almost all my street photos this year with the fuji 16-55. Love that lens! The only reason why I added the Fuji 33mm (50mm equivalent) to my collection is that I wanted something better then the f2.8 for winter evening darkness. With the 16-55mm I guess about half my shots were in the 30-55mm range, but I did find myself 'hiding' quite a lot between either the 16mm (for the s*xy distortion) or the 55mm (for the better separation and distance from subjects. As a result, being locked into 33mm on my current photo walks is a real challenge for composing shots. The lens feels even more responsive than the 16-55mm though, and on my X-T5 I think it all tucks nicely into my hand for carrying whereas the 16-55mm always stuck out and felt like it might bump things. (I'd happily harry the 16-55mm, despite its weight, by using a short wrist strap to help my wrist carry about half of the burden).

True, I have always been using 50mm whole my life. Thank you for this. And you have already visited Nepal nice to see some pics from Nepal. :) If I had known we could go around for photography together .

Awesome work bro. One suggestion regarding the audio quality. Ur voice is bass heavy due to the position of the mic 🎤 is at chest level I guess. It’s a bit annoying (sorry to say that). Could you please change the mic 🎤 in the next one 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Is this refering to 50mm equivalent on a croped sensor or 50mm full frame ?

I find the opposite; I often find a 50 too wide, and prefer a fast 85 if I'm not using a 70 to 200.
