Humor: What if Canon was a Man?

Watch DigitalRev’s Kai do a parody imagining how Canon would be if the company was a human being, a man.

What kind of person would Canon be if it was a real person, or even your boss? This is Canon as a man, throughout the era of the creation of EOS and Ultrasonic; making printers and calculator mice; the digital era and finally the threat of mirrorless cameras.

Yongnuo 50mm f/1.8 vs Canon 50mm f/1.8 Video Comparison

Do you remember the Yongnuo 50mm f/1.8? Tony Northrup made a quick comparison with the original, Canon’s EF 50mm f/1.8 (aka Nifty-FIfty). The Yongnuo is available on Amazon and eBay, and since recently also B&H Photo has Yongnuo products in catalog, they also have the Yongnuo 50mm f/1.8 listed. Unfortunately in the meantime, with all the press, the Yongnuo has the same price as the Canon 50mm f/1.8.

Btw, Yongnuo cloned also the Canon 35mm f/1.4 and the Canon 2x III tele-converter.
