This is a test footage with the Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 Lens along with my Canon Rebel T2i (550D). This video was shot with only natural lighting and at times handheld. I've had this lens for a few months now, and I am satisfied with the quality, given that the lens was under $400 when I had purchased it used. It is also a good focal length to compliment my APS-C camera. If you're on a tight budget like I am, I would highly recommend this lens for photos & videos.
Camera Settings:
Neutral Picture Style (Sharpness: 0, Contrast: -4, Saturation: -2, Color Tone: 0) to get the flattest image I could get in camera for post editing. My shutter speed was 50 while shooting 24fps 1080p. My ISO ranged from 100-400 which prevented a lot of noise during low light shooting. Some shots I pushed it to ISO 640-800 when I started to lose a lot of natural light. The aperture was ranges from f/1.8-f/5.6. After that, most of it was post editing.
