    The whole video is poor and pointless but. . .

    Once and for all: LONGER LENS DOES NOT GIVE YOU A BLURRY BACKGROUND. It’s a myth. The only thing that can give you a blurry background is the aperture.

    And for God’s sake : LEARN BEFORE YOU TEACH!

    I have to disagree about NOT using the 50 prime as a portrait lens. . . . I use mine all the time. Secondly we have our own favorite lenses we use for certain situations and I hate when people like this guy who says which lens is better for which situation. I get that a much favored lens like a 70-200 is for sports/weddings, etc. but actually I hardly ever use my Nikkor 70-200.

    Prime lenses have a fixed focal length.

    Ex. 50mm (prime) vs 18mm-70mm (zoom)

    Cool video,
    I’m making a snowboarding video, I use a wide angle lens right now but I want to get a couple more.
    What are prime lenses?
