Low Light Test f3.5 vs f2.8 vs f1.8 | Ultimate Comparison (The Power of Fast Lenses)

This is a low light test comparison between different aperture modes ranging from f3.5 down to f1.7. For these tests I used the Panasonic Lumix G9 and the Leica 15mm f1.7. The purpose of this video was to discover how much more light you get with a fast glass, because often we buy a camera with a kit lens that has an aperture of f/3.5 and we wonder how much light of a difference would give me f2.8 or f2.5 or f.1.8 etc. I hope you find this video interesting, enjoy!

Check listed price on Amazon for the Leica 15mm f/1.7:

Wasn't expecting such a big jump from 2.8 to 1.8.

[Nightball]

Literally the perfect video I was looking to compare 3.5 to 1.7. Even 2.8 makes a big difference. Thanks man.

[bystanderprod]

couldn't find anyone online making an aperture comparison video for lighting purposes and it blows my mind now that I see what an insane difference it makes! why is there no one else talking about this????
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS

Henry, great comparisons. No wasted talking or intros. I loved it. Thanks buddy.

[AlphaCentauri]

The difference between 2.8 & 1.8 is more than I expected. Please do a similar test for full frame too. Thanks for the video.

Henri that was a perfect video, I've search around so much for simple aperture comparisons. It's finally clear now.
Thank you!

[nikkojoson]

I've been looking for this comparison for a year. thank you!

[stefanpetrov]

Great video, finally someone to not only explain but show direct comparsion.

[JeronimoAmbience]

One of the best comparisons I have seen! Well done! Very useful for me

[fromthecabana]

Thank you so much! This was the best at showing me the differences!

[StudiumEntropii]

Excellent video. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much!

[afridixd]

A very very good explained video with good enough quality. Hats off!

Three years after posting, your video it is still very relevant. I was looking for a light comparison see how much brighter an image is if ISO and shutter speed remains constant, but the aperture varies and yours was the only I could find. I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on the Sony a6700 with the Sigma 18-50mm f2.8. I can also get $150 USD off the Sony 15mm f1.4 G by bundling the purchase with the camera, but was questioning this add as to how much more capability I would have in taking images and videos under very low light conditions. The examples you provided indeed showed a very noticeable improvement when going from f2.8 to f1.4.

hey actually there's no many particular videos about aperture and light comparison one next to each other. nice to see it on one slide!. thanks for the vid. kudos!

[kevinsjournal]

This is an excellent comparison, thanks so much for making this!

[soxxks]

Beautiful video. Helped me understand aperture a lot more as someone new to cameras.
