  1. It's half past 11 and we're waiting for

    Segment details0:01–0:03 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_0
  2. the delivery man, but he still hasn't come

    Segment details0:03–0:05 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_1
  3. yet.

    Segment details0:05–0:06 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_2
  4. And— oh, there's a van pulling in right

    Segment details0:07–0:09 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_3
  5. now.

    Segment details0:09–0:09 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_4
  6. I thought that was our lens van, but it

    Segment details0:10–0:12 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_5
  7. was just some stupid white van.

    Segment details0:12–0:15 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_6
  8. I just heard a door closing, a car door.

    Segment details0:16–0:18 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_7
  9. Could it be the delivery man?

    Segment details0:20–0:22 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_8
  10. Oh yes!

    Segment details0:23–0:24 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_9
  11. We got our knife.

    Segment details0:39–0:43 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_10
  12. It was him.

    Segment details0:44–0:45 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_11
  13. He delivered the lens, the box.

    Segment details0:45–0:47 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_12
  14. It's kind of strange because usually it

    Segment details0:47–0:49 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_13
  15. comes by Royal Mail or DPD delivery, not

    Segment details0:49–0:52 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_14
  16. just some kind of white van that doesn't

    Segment details0:52–0:55 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_15
  17. even have any logos will come pick

    Segment details0:55–0:59 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_16
  18. markings.

    Segment details1:03–1:04 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_17
  19. So here is the lens in a box.

    Segment details1:04–1:08 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_18
  20. Oh, they also gave me some vouchers.

    Segment details1:09–1:11 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_19
  21. Okay, let's open up this lens.

    Segment details1:15–1:17 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_20
  22. It's pretty small actually.

    Segment details1:37–1:38 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_21
  23. It's a lot smaller than the 50mm lens.

    Segment details1:38–1:41 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_22
  24. So there it is.

    Segment details1:43–1:44 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_23
  25. 1.8 aperture, 0.3 meter

    Segment details1:49–1:54 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_24
  26. focus distance, so that's 30 centimeters,

    Segment details1:56–1:58 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_25
  27. with a 49 filter fitting.

    Segment details2:00–2:07 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_26
  28. We've got optical steady shot,

    Segment details2:09–2:11 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_27
  29. 35 millimeter.

    Segment details2:13–2:13 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_28
  30. It's actually really small.

    Segment details2:13–2:15 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_29
  31. Compared to the 50mm which I'm shooting on

    Segment details2:16–2:19 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_30
  32. right now.

    Segment details2:19–2:19 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_31
  33. So let's put it on.

    Segment details2:20–2:21 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_32
  34. Okay, so I've just put on the 35mm lens

    Segment details2:25–2:27 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_33
  35. and this is what it looks like.

    Segment details2:27–2:28 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_34
  36. This is my 50mm lens which I'll probably

    Segment details2:29–2:32 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_35
  37. be selling now that I've got the 35.

    Segment details2:32–2:34 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_36
  38. It looks a bit Misty.

    Segment details2:40–2:42 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_37
  39. I might need to give it— give the lens

    Segment details2:42–2:44 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_38
  40. glass a bit of a wipe.

    Segment details2:44–2:45 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_39
  41. So it's pretty fast, although I heard that

    Segment details2:49–2:52 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_40
  42. in low light it gets a bit slower, as most

    Segment details2:52–2:56 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_41
  43. lenses do.

    Segment details2:56–2:56 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_42
  44. Focus, focus.

    Segment details2:59–3:01 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_43
  45. Oh, did a bit of hunting there.

    Segment details3:02–3:03 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_44
  46. Focus, focus.

    Segment details3:04–3:06 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_45
  47. Focus.

    Segment details3:07–3:08 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_46
  48. But if you wanted to do like a lot of

    Segment details3:08–3:10 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_47
  49. background stuff, you're not going to get

    Segment details3:10–3:13 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_48
  50. much inside this 35mm lens.

    Segment details3:13–3:16 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_49
  51. When this lens is autofocusing or like

    Segment details3:16–3:19 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_50
  52. focus hunting, there's a high-pitched

    Segment details3:19–3:21 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_51
  53. ringing sound.

    Segment details3:21–3:22 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_52
  54. You've probably heard it by now.

    Segment details3:22–3:23 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_53
  55. This didn't happen on my 50mm lens, which

    Segment details3:24–3:26 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_54
  56. is kind of disappointing.

    Segment details3:26–3:27 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_55
  57. 50mm lens— milliliter lens— the 50mm lens

    Segment details3:28–3:32 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_56
  58. is very quiet.

    Segment details3:32–3:33 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_57
  59. Quiet when it's autofocusing, and I wasn't

    Segment details3:33–3:36 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_58
  60. expecting this lens to be so noisy

    Segment details3:36–3:37 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_59
  61. considering it costs £100 more.

    Segment details3:38–3:40 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_60
  62. I guess it's not really a huge problem

    Segment details3:41–3:42 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_61
  63. unless you're in like a really silent,

    Segment details3:43–3:44 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_62
  64. quiet room, but

    Segment details3:45–3:47 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_63
  65. I don't know, it's just kind of

    Segment details3:48–3:50 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_64
  66. disappointing.

    Segment details3:50–3:50 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_65
  67. I did look on Google for some comparison

    Segment details3:51–3:53 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_66
  68. videos, and other people also saying that

    Segment details3:53–3:56 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_67
  69. they can also hear this high-pitched

    Segment details3:56–3:57 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_68
  70. ringing sound.

    Segment details3:57–3:58 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_69
  71. And I looked at some test videos for the

    Segment details3:59–4:00 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_70
  72. same lens, and they also have the same

    Segment details4:00–4:02 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_71
  73. sound that mine does, so I'm pretty sure

    Segment details4:02–4:05 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_72
  74. it's not like a faulty lens problem.

    Segment details4:05–4:08 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_73
  75. Damn it, we lost her.

    Segment details6:37–6:39 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_74
  76. We got so close to being able to get like

    Segment details6:43–6:46 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_75
  77. some decent footage of— oh, there she is.

    Segment details6:46–6:49 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_76
  78. She's over there.

    Segment details6:51–6:52 · rev_6b2cf427888052bc472629f786fcda9a_77
