Episode 6: Prime and Zoom Lenses

July 6, 2017 Leave a Comment

What good is a camera that can’t zoom in and out? A lot, as it turns out. We’ll discuss our experiences with lenses that zoom and lenses that don’t (called Primes) and why both are good in different situations. Each of us has experience with both kinds of lenses and we will explore how we have used them, what their different strengths and weaknesses are, and why dads (or moms) who want to take better pictures of their kids might be better off with a lens that doesn’t zoom at all.

Note: Phil’s internet died while recording this, but we wrapped it up with Part 2 a few days later. You can watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLotOodOTPs
