So what are some great lenses that you should invest in you say?
Let me break a few of the best Canon lens for creating Youtube videos.
1. Canon 18-55 mm Lens
This lens might not be an additional investment as it’s what might have come with your camera. So I’m adding it because I truly believe in using what you have at the moment. I used my stock lens for an entire year before I moved up to something else that I truly loved. This was because I had truly mastered my old faithful and felt like it was time to step my game up. Some of my most popular videos were made with this lens! So don’t sleep on it’s capabilities.

2. Canon 50 mm Lens
One of the most affordable quality lenses that every person should have is a 50mm.
This lens is great for shots with low lighting (there will be times when your lighting might not be the best). It’s really compact, and super lightweight.
Anndddd my favorite feature is the fifty’s ability to produce a beautiful bokeh! (blurred background effect).
It’s a great beginner lens and most professional photographers keep one of these in their lens stash!

More about 50mm Lenses
Recently I moved to Dallas! Learn more about that HERE, I lost my Canon 50mm in the transition. I was bummed, but decided I needed another 50 for a video shoot that I really had to submit for a brand. I was able to order the Yongnuo 50mm lens, which in my opinion works even better than my canon 50mm (Call me crazy, but..).
The best part about the Yongnuo lens is that it is only $49.99

3. Canon 24-105mm
Ready to make a bigger investment? I started off with my stock lens (the one i got with my Canon 70D Camera) but when I was ready for a more professional and finished look for my videos and photographs, I couldn’t help but keep my eye on the Canon 24-105mm lens! This lens makes my videos look like pure television!! After all, that’s the goal some day right?
The images and videos recorded with this lens are truly crisp and clear! When focusing on beauty you want to create almost magazine quality visuals (if you are
trying to get to the top of course!). I also appreciate that this is a zoom lens and sometimes different looks call of different perspectives of your content.
