Why Use a Fast Prime Lens? (When Your Zoom Already Covers It) with Gavin Hoey

If your zoom lens already covers the focal length of a “Fast Prime”, why would you need another lens with the same focal length? In this video, photographer Gavin Hoey explores the real-world advantages of fast prime lenses and demonstrates what actually changes when you work at wide apertures like f/1.4 compared to f/4 and f/11. Rather than focusing on brand or specific gear, this session looks at the practical reasons photographers choose fast glass and whether those reasons matter for your style of photography. Gavin breaks his explanation into three key areas: Low-light performance – How wider apertures allow you to maintain image quality without pushing ISO unnecessarily high and lowering image quality. Bokeh and background rendering – Including the popular “bokeh balls” effect and how aperture size influences their look… but not how to correctly pronounce Bokeh! Depth of field – Exploring how wide apertures create subject separation and background blur. Through side-by-side comparisons and simple demonstrations, this video shows what really happens when you open up your lens and might help guide you into deciding whether a fast prime offers something your zoom lens simply can’t.
