Considering video work, the Sony FX30 paired with the 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II could be a smarter choice over the 300mm f/2.8. This setup not only matches the focal range but excels in video quality, thanks to the FX30's advanced video features and the lens's optical stabilization and versatility. Plus, it's far more budget-friendly, allowing you to allocate funds to other essential video gear. A win-win for high-quality video production without breaking the bank.
I’m in love with this lens. It’s such a dreamy to hold as it’s so well balanced. I also really appreciate how you mentioned that you had it for a while before reviewing. I see a of videos where it seems they are in a hurry to publish something quickly without using it really.
À choisir entre un : - Canon R3, objectif 100-300 ou - Sony A7rV 300 Mmm Gm plus un A7rV 70-200. - Sony A7rV 400 mm gm Quelle configuration choisir entre ces deux là ?? Pour du sportif f( football )
I was very close to buy the new Sony 300mm 2.8 GM Lens with 1.4x and 2x teleconverters, but then I saw that Sigma announced the Sigma 500mm 5.6 DG DN OS Sports Lens at under half the price of the Sony, the Sigma is very compact, very light weight, very easy to handle and can be carried for several hours in your hands without any problems, the Sigma is very sharp and delivers very good image quality, so I can highly recommend the Sigma 500mm 5.6 DG DN OS Sports Lens.
The Sigma does not take teleconverters, and is frame rate limited on Sony bodies ( 15 FPS max). Also, the AF motors on the Sigma are slower than the 300GM
@@njrtech I do not care about speed above 5 fps, I can crop a LOT from 61 megapixels ! The Sigma focuses FAST enough ! I was close to buying the Sony 300mm 2.8 GM with teleconverters, then the Sigma was announced, I am very happy using the Sigma 500mm !!! You listen too much to youtubers that do not do photography very much,, much of them do most videos !
Thx. Good review. I have the 200 600 and was thinking of this lens with a 1.4 tc but now you have me doubting the speed of the autofocus. Do a lot of bif. What do you think?
The 300GM paired with the 2x TC is still very fast, matter of fact many Sony wildlife (birders) run this combo and praise it's speed and unbelievable sharpness even with a 2x TC @600mm!
1. If you are financial free and can spend this amount of money, maybe 2. If you plan to do sport photography in dark conditions, maybe 3. If you will never afford 400 mm f2.8 or 600 mm f4.0, maybe 4. If you want lightweight, prime, fullframe lens, maybe
