Can You Tell the Difference Between F/1.4 and F/1.8? This Lens Test Video Could Save You Money

Should you get an F/1.4 lens or save a little money and settle for the F/1.8 model? That's the question that photographer Pierre T. Lambert tries to answer in the below video where he tests to see if you can actually tell the difference between an image shot at F/1.4 vs F/1.8.

"I want to answer the million-dollar question: is 1.4 better than F/1.8? Lambert asks. "Knowing that one lens is three times more expensive than the other, I'm going to put you to the test. You're going to have to figure out which is which: one image I shot at 1.4 and one I shot at 1.8. I will let you know after, which shot was which, but I can tell you it's going to be tricky."

So, if you're ready to take Lambert's test and, possibly, save yourself some money in the process, hit the play button on the below video where he compares images shot with both lenses. Then jump over to his channel to watch more of his awesome YouTube videos.
