Hey everyone! If you've ever felt GAS about a stunning expensive lens that you may or may not need.. then hopefully today's video will help change your mind about why the best lens is not always the most expensive one. There are more qualities to think about with a lens than just ultimate image quality and speed. Sometimes the quirks of a lens are what's more important for your creative process. Let me know what lenses you've had experiences like this in the comments!
