“What do all these numbers on these camera lenses actually mean?!” 

This was one of my very first questions I had when buying my first DSLR and I don’t mind telling you, it took me a little while to figure out! 

So in this week’s episode, I’m going to break down what the numbers on your camera lens actually mean, so that you can figure out how a particular lens will perform,  and therefore whether it is the right lens for you. 

Tune into today’s episode to learn: 

• What the numbers before the mm mean on your camera

• The quick way to know whether your lens will look more “zoomed in” or “zoomed out” 

• How this changes depending on your camera body, and the crop factor you should always take into account

• Why some camera lenses have two numbers before the mm, and some only have one

• What that F number means on your camera lens, and why sometimes  you will have two numbers separated by a dash

• Plus we’ll breakdown different camera lenses so you can see how to approach looking at lenses to see how they will perform, and compare them to see which lens is best for you.
