@codykonior Год назад

The Sigma lens looked way better. However I also wish you'd have shown in the 16-50mm kit lens to compare as well.

@cpsmith516 3 года назад

The Sony is trying to focus on your practical light and having issues with it. It's quite distracting compared to the Sigma which is buttery smooth and isn't having issues with that background light.

@bcpetersjr Год назад

I really appreciate your real world approach. Most reviews on the lens zoom in on pictures and talk about stuff I can barely see. Admittedly, I am not s professional photographer so that might be the key issue but I really appreciate the no nonsense practical application. Just bought one because of this review

@techtrx Год назад

Id love to use this with zv-e1 does it work with that? Even if i have to crop in a little bit?

@snaprifice 3 года назад

It would be amazing if manufacturers provided T-stop values for their products. The primary reason I will pay more for fast lenses is because even accounting for light transmission differences a 1.4 should be brighter than a 2.8. I love the night so I go for fast glass in the hopes that the T-stop isn't too far off. The option to get good subject separation with a thin plane of focus is a juicy bonus.

@TheArtofSimpleGolf 2 года назад

Love the stuff! What would be best lens for filming full body golf instruction videos. I hate the way 12mm looks and 16 or 18 is right. I can knock out a couple more feet to help distance. Any suggestions as I’m going in circles Camera is Sony 6400

It does work, but as it is made for a crop sensor (E mount, full frame is FE) it will leave a circle in the full frame...

@25myma 3 года назад

Thanks for showing some love to this lens! It's great for the price but most reviwers out there I think they test it all wrong. This thing only has 5 elements and was designed for vlogging/environmental portraits om the cheap. That means far/infinity focus is compromised and it probably has plenty of field distortion because of the simple build, so test shots of landscapes or architecture often make it look really bad. Not saying sony can't make ot better but it is definitely better than the kit lens at what it does best.

@moniquebeastie 3 года назад

I do really like the size difference and see it as a bonus to a small package; especially for vlogging.

Honestly, was about to buy a sigma 1.4 as I have wanted for a while (real estate videos). Seeing as I’ve been doing well with my f/ 3.5 16mm in terms of light, 2.8 would already let a lot more light in - and as it’s so cheap I’m going to buy that first, and if I’m not happy I’m going to buy the sigma too

I need your advise about lens. Which one you can suggest me to buy? The point is that I’m not doing “talking head”, I’m working in a 3 to 7 meters distance with a low lightning. Is Sigma 16mm f1.4 is the optimal solution for me, or you can suggest something better? Thanks in advance for your help! 🙏🏻

I have a Sony-made “Hasselblad” 16 on my a6000 (Hasselblad’s short-lived APS-C camera was really a Sony) and the Sigma lens on a MFT body. My Sony “Hasselblad” lens cost $149 4 years ago. I used it for every day and street use for 3 years. I bought my Sigma used for $200 - because of great reviews. Yes - it IS very heavy. I like both pieces of glass!

@SCjizzyblack 3 года назад

@TheOtherChef 3 года назад

great video, I own the Sigma 16 but not worth for me to get the Sony prime 16, because I already own the kit lens that came with my a6400. If F-stop isn't an issue then the kit lens is great, light, and still get the job done. Just my thoughts. If I didn't have the kit lens, then yes, I might invest in a Sony prime 16 but for vlogging or talking points on a tripod.

@dianndrabarreto5575 3 года назад

you can sharpen your live stream webcam on OBS as well. Right click the camera once attached, filters > sharpen . Probably stick to a 25-35% max.

@MayyTriedIt 2 года назад

I think the Sony 16mm is better for outside vlogging if you dont want alot of attention and the size. And the sigma 16mm is great for more indoor on a tripod.

@shaunleely 2 года назад

Hi, can I check why is your background light flicking when the Sony 16mm lens is on? Is the lens hunting for focus (because the lens is not letting in enough light for the camera)? Thanks.

Hello! I recently purchased the Sony zv e10 camera. It's my first camera ever (i want to use it for filming my youtube video's), so I am absolutely clueless about camera's. When I start my camera, it doesn't film anything. It's very blurry and you can only see the colors changing, but I can't actually film with it. Is this because I didn't attach an extra lens to it? I thought I could use it without buying a lens. Or maybe it's something in the settings? I feel like an idiot but if anyone knows please let me know.

@YHWHMission 2 года назад

Thanks I’m buying the Sony EV 10 and the Sigma16 from your links. You earned it. 👊🏼

@Cunic 2 года назад

the lower f-stop on the sigma lens is why the price tag is so high. also paired with the autofocus on the lens. If you go with the sony 16mm you'll be better off if you use manual focus and have decent lighting so you can keep your ISO low. You wont have as deep of a focus range, but it'll still look nice.

@GrandFyre 2 года назад

100% agreed. The Sigma looks so buttery smooth and warm tones, the Sony lens doesn’t look as natural, but it’s a matter of cost. I think the Sigma is worth the money premium.

@MNolanMillar Год назад

Do you need to turn up your studio lights with the Sony lens? The reason I ordered the Sigma (still waiting for it) is that I thought I wouldn't need such bright lights when recording or streaming.

@Gadgets20 3 года назад

I don't know where you can find the Sony lens that cheap, but in Canada, the cheapest for that Sony lens is $200 used. In my opinion, the $300 difference is worth it. Where it isn't worth it is the size of the lens. That Sony is way smaller. And I feel like if you're shooting 16mm at f/2.8, then you might as well just shoot with the kit lens at 3.5. It's prob even less noticeable than the difference between these 2 lenses. The Sigma also crushes the Sony in low light being a full 2 stops faster. That's the difference between shooting at ISO 12800 and ISO 3200.

@slowknifedesign 2 года назад

A quick tip about the sigma 16mm lenses that you might not know because I didn’t know and there is almost nothing on the Inter. I just purchased this lense to used on a Sony ZV-E10 and unfortunately and be aware, this is a fix lense, meaning you cannot zoom in and out on the ZV-E10 and also you cannot use the digital zoom that comes with the camera because is not compatible unless you mess about with the function on the camera. That’s the only way that you can use the zoom in and out feature from the camera but not the lense.

The difference between the bokeh is there. The sigma just creates a better bg blur since it can be stopped down to 1.4. Gosh. I’m so tempted to buy the Sigma. This made it even more difficult to decide. That Sony lens is a better value, though. I could purchase additional accessories with the money saved, for sure.
