@SidneyDiongzon 6 лет назад

Which lens did you prefer? Sigma 16mm or Sigma 30mm?

@SidneyDiongzon 6 лет назад

I think prefer the Sigma 30 a little more...maybe for sentimental reasons, lol

@chrisbrockhurst 6 лет назад

Definitely the 16mm.. love it. Just did a comparison between it and the rokinon 12mm on my channel. I honestly don't think there's another e mount lens currently out that it can be compared with

@SidneyDiongzon 6 лет назад

Yep!

@kalpeshrawal5636 6 лет назад

I loved 30mm until 16mm came out. Own both and as you stated, both have their places in videography. I find 16mm more convenient most of the time for it being a wide angle lens. Big thumps up to you for the apt videos you have been creating. There are times I think how about Sidney creates a video about this and there you create a video about it. Thank you.

@LisaMichele 6 лет назад

After doing a lot of research, I chose the 30mm, but after being so used to the 16-50 kit lens on the a6300, I think I may dip back into my wallet and pick up the 16mm. I'm just so used to that wide shot! I think the 30mm will be nice for shooting interviews and things like that. Unfortunately with photography equipment, there's so much trial and error to finding what you like, and every trial costs $$$! Thanks for this video, great work here!

@Rickkwa Год назад

I really appreciate the multitude of side-by-side comparison shots. Lots of videos out there are lacking this basic aspect.

@trygvebutenschn4515 6 лет назад

I've been researching indecisivly which of these to buy for weeks, and this video just answered every single one of my questions. And not only did it help me decide that the 30mm 1.4 is the right choice, it did it straight to the point, very informatively and with great style. Overall an awesome video! I am subscribing for sure

@SidneyDiongzon 6 лет назад

@GetBusyLiving 4 года назад

Hi Sidney - I'm new to your channel and I love your reviews and have subbed! I'm looking at these lenses for my Canon APS-C camera - and will probably use mostly for talking head (studio) footage, b-roll, and some interviews. I was set on the 30mm and then came across the 16mm so am now not sure! Any thoughts?

@lucamontiro Год назад

Got my 30mm back when you released this video and just now I´m getting the 16mm, super hyped about it, thank you sm for your amazing videos!

@PpLaaY 6 лет назад

finally ive been waiting for this review

@SidneyDiongzon 6 лет назад

I'm so glad!!!! Thanks for watching!!

@omsrswt 6 лет назад

Thanks for this! I am dead set on the 30mm now. I'll keep my kit lens for when I need a wider FOV but I much prefer the "normal" equivalence of about 45mm. Bee using a 50mm Canon FD and while I love it, it's too narrow on an APS-C and I sometimes miss AF.

@jessenavarro4421 6 лет назад

Thanks for making my decision a little bit easier! Been waiting for a video like this!!

@SidneyDiongzon 6 лет назад

Oh good! I’m so glad this helped! Which one are you going for?

@tessaxelisexX 4 года назад

You sold me! This is the exact comparison video I was looking for. I have the 16mm with my sony a6000 that I got for general overall photos but now with a second babe on the way I want something better for portraits and child shots! Thanks so much for this video and the explanations.

@SidneyDiongzon 4 года назад

Wooooo! Glad this was helpful!

@darkmyst99994 6 лет назад

Appreciate you covering the comparison. I had asked on your first video you did on the 16mm how you felt about the MF. Thank you very much for the review. Also, keep up the amazing work. Love to see you crush 2018 and be up there with some of the big names.

@SidneyDiongzon 6 лет назад

Thanks Andrew! I hope this video was helpful to you!

@Trendniiq 3 года назад

I use Sigma 30mm on my Sony A6100 camera house as a webcam for my gaming videos. But it zooms in a lot, and is making it hard for me to even get shoulders involved in the webcam - it's all right in your face! Would the Sigma 15mm be better? Does it zoom in less?

@MckenzieReive 6 лет назад

Just picked up my a6500 body and ended up pairing it with the new sigma 16mm 1.4! Waiting for the rest of my rig to be delivered but really loving the a6500 content on RU-vid, that being said thank you for all of your uploads. Although I'm new to you're channel it's very clear you love your a6500's, so I decided to sub! Even though you got you're a7r iii beauty I hope you continue with both. Happy new year!

@SidneyDiongzon 6 лет назад

I'm so stoked for you! You'll love that combo! And yes, I'll be using both cameras throughout the year!

@joshuachristie3032 4 года назад

I'm just a beginner but for making dance videos that your whole body(including the splits soo both horizonatal and vertical) will be on camera what will do the best the 16mm Sigma or the 30mm Sigma? The kit lens didn't exactly do it for me with my Canon EOS M50. In within a 20 foot range to be specific in distance.

How much more is the 30mm cropt compared with the 16mm. I want the 30mm but I'm scared that the pov is too small

@evergreen5277 5 лет назад

very good comparison of these lenses; I use two system right now: sony and canon and the biggest issue with sony is colors: for my point of view 16mm give more creme colors what is nicer - compare also skin tone and bokeh colors, specially white, in your video; you will see the difference

@trishalim9029 4 года назад

I love travel and taking portraits with the bokeh. It seems like an impossible choice between the two? Is the 30mm too tight?

@simonwinther9306 6 лет назад

Nice comparison:) Keep up the good work. One of my friends have the 30mm 1.4 and he chose it, because of you. And he is very happy about the lens.

My room is small (10x10), my desk is up against front wall, I’ll be placing a6100 just behind/left of my PC monitor facing me as I sit 3 feet from lens. Now the wall behind me(background) which is 6 feet further behind me..... so camera, then 3 feet away is me (subject) then 6 feet behind me is back wall..... (9 feet away from cam)....which lens between these 2 will give me best background bokeh? (For streaming & recording).

@HongweiShan 3 года назад

The best comparing sigma lens video. As you stated, the results speak to your audience. I own Sigma 16mm F1.4 and am planning to shot some RU-vid videos. I wished that the lens would be a tiny bit narrow, so I was looking into Sigma 30mm F1.4. After watching your video, I am going to stick with 16mm one. Thanks so much for your awesome video.

If my purpose is Macro ( Provided I use these with some closeup Filter or extension tubes) which one do you recommend?

@RH-nc8uu 4 года назад

What is your thoughts on sharpness. I bought both and have been disgusted with the sharpness of the 16mm taking photos and really of both. The 30mm is way more sharp taking say indoor photos of family 2-20 feet away at all equal settings. And neither is anywhere near as sharp as the standard kit lens on nikon d7500

@patdinco 6 лет назад

Love my A7ii and 28mm but video aspect isn’t strong. Dream kit would prob be a6500: 16mm 1.4 (though 24mm ff equivalent is still a bit tight for vlogs) the new 18-105 for family/travel, and the the 55 1.8. Idk aps c seems more optimal for my needs :/

@sketchbraincreative 6 лет назад

Hi Sidney! thanks for the review. Just picked up the 16mm for my a7iii from your link (along with a bunch of other shit youre welcome). love the channel and the knowledge , so I just wanted to show my support. I'm in Costa Mesa, and hopefully we cross paths some day. take care and wishing health for your fam.

@stefpix 6 лет назад

I have both, i like both for different things. I carry 2 bodies, one with the 16mm and one with the 30mm. 16mm seems to have better AF, I tried continuous eye AF and the 30mm hunts, back and forth. 16mm seems less indecisive, but sometimes I get slightly missed focus ( AF )with the 16mm compared to the Sony lenses. But I take more than one shot.

@MrBurguercito5 4 года назад

Hi, I own the two kit lenses 16 and 55 mm... and I want to purchase one of the sigma options, mostly because of the aperture. Between the 16mm and the 30 mm wich one do you recommend... I shoot portraits and some landspaces, but mostly portraits. And I film piano concerts and music videos in small rooms.

@CuneytYldrm 5 лет назад

Hi, Sidney. I'm also a new Sigma 16mm user. I can hear the noise of the motor coming out when my lens is focusing on the autofocus. Especially when I get the aperture f16, the sound is getting a little more. Do you think that's a problem?

@speakersalliancecanada4616 3 года назад

Hi Sidney, I am looking for the lens to make the sony a6400 as a webcam. I need to record the webinars as well. So, please let me know which of them do you recommend? the 16mm or 30mm? (I need a blurry background and the home studio to be visible in the background)

@christofferroeen7222 4 года назад

Hey Sidney What is the difference of the 16mm with a 2x zoom and the 30mm. i know there is a little difference off 2mm or somthinge but what about the abortion or such ?!

@tadbubs 2 года назад

Sidney (not to be confused with the "Down Under" local...or are you there?) that was short, sweet, succinct, and super informative. Question: I just bought the 30mm. I was thinking I could use my newly purchased Sony ZV-E10 to make up for any differences between the two lenses, with the crop features. But, I'm shooting in two styles: (1) sofa for talking to the camera, up against a wall (about 1-meter away from the camera lens); and (2) full-body demonstration videos (3-meters away). Which lens will do me better?

Nice comparison, I want your expert opinion, I got Sony a6400 which does not have IBIS, I have sony 18-135 as kit lens.I am seeking for another great lens.

Is the 16mm focus by wire? I find that it really difficult to manual focus like that, maybe you can do a video on that? thanks wolferine man

Yes it is. The Sigma 16mm makes it a lot easier to focus manually though!

@SarahLdk 3 года назад

I have canon 600d and the canon 50 mm 1.8 which is great for closeup portraits. But I need a lens for full body shots too. I need a lens that gives me sharp images indoors and outdoors. Indoors is a very small space, which is why I can't use my 50 mm indoors. I was told to get the 17 50 2.8 but I read that it is best at 50, which is not what I need. Would this be a good match?

@ericmcfarland4228 6 лет назад

Would you say keep the sigma 18-35 and adapt it or sell and buy these 2 lenses to replace it? Is the extra half stop worth it? I am looking to switch from cannon to sony.

@SidneyDiongzon 6 лет назад

Depends if you want a lighter setup or not. The Sigma 18-35 is BY FAR better than these two lenses because it’s...well, an Art lens! The downside is that it’s a very heavy lens, and the upside is that is produces better image quality. Hope this helps you decide!
