that’s not what he say, he say you probably afford what he’s holding (400 f2.8) and therefore should get a 300 f2.8.
He said “you …
He said “you probably won’t jump up to this [holds 400mm] unless you have a lot of money in your pockets, but you’ll get a 300mm f/2.8″.
He Obviously Knows …
He Obviously Knows his gear since he got it all right in Part 2, Which was probaly filmed before Part 1. (all the lenses are out in part 1)
He doesn’t seem to …
He doesn’t seem to have a clue? I’m sure he doesn’t care and gets the images but it kind of makes him look bad at the same time.
He doesn’t know the …
He doesn’t know the focal lengths?? 80-200 is one thing, but saying 300/2.8 for the 400/2.8 lens (see @ 4:11)…
Why are you guys …
Why are you guys worrying about it is 70-200 or 80-200?
those 10mm aren’t necessary, anyway.
There was a Minolta 80-200 f2.8 that holds up great against the newer Minolta/Sony 70-200 f2.8.
And it is for sure better than the Canon 70-200 f2.8.
(ohh, I see incoming flames)
Good gear is great to have.
But as he says the portfolio is more important.
And you one take great pictures with cheap used Lenses as well…
Oh please, while …
Oh please, while you guys worry about focal lengths, I’ll go out to have some fun making some photos.

Not knowing the focal lengths of his own lenses seriously damages the credibility of this photographer and the videos

This is the most insane clip I’ve seen. It tells you you can be big when you buy expensive stuff. This is just not true. Check what photographers are doing when coming from artschool and check what gear they have.. This is sooooooo geartalk..

I suggest try to worry less about what others are doing and do what works for you.
Well, I have a very …
Well, I have a very basic kit around Olympus E-500 including a 35mm macro lens and 300mm 4.5 OM manual focus lens. I also have a higher end Sony A900 with 24-70mm f/2.8 and 70-200mm f/2.8. For some reason, I wouldn’t consider a Canon camera, maybe becasue it disgusts me when I see 90% of DSLR users shooting with the Rebel. Nikon also turned me off lately. On the other hand, I am really drooling over the Pentax K7 now, with 200mm f/2.8, 100mm f/2.8 macro and 14mm f/.28 wide angle.
