This new Sigma is shaping up to be the very best 35MM lens currently made, although not perfect it excels in so many important ways. Used with some discretion to avoid the flaring issue it achieves virtual perfection. The environmental portraits displayed in the video were truly excellent, your wife must be complemented on producing a perfectly focused and very well composed portrait of you. Great work as always Dustin Abbott, thank you for sharing.

@warpspeed9877 4 года назад

@bileamscorner 4 года назад

LOL: ironically enough, this expensive combo of 35/1.2 and A7r4 is the ideal setup for beginners /novices, as they can take off the lens cap and press the shutter release while aiming the lens towards an area where there are humans, and then later on have someone cut out the person that happens to be in focus (so now we know why 61MPs is required !) now with perfectly sharp eyes. Great episode Dustin, thanks!

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

LOL - that is ironic.

@bileamscorner 4 года назад

@@DustinAbbottTWI Joke aside; I am stunned by the awesome bokeh of this lens, it looks much similar to the legendary Leica Summicron 35 in my opinion. Finally Sigma got the bokeh right!! And thanks to the eye-AF we can put all our effort into composing and lighting instead of fighting to get the iris tack sharp. A final note: even old manual lenses can now benefit from eye-AF on A9/A7r4/A7riii via the adapters with motor from TechArt or Fotodiox ; simply AMAZING!

Thanks for another amazing review! I prefer the color rendering of the Samyang. The Samyang looks more red/less green - very un-sigma like! Do you still have the 35L ii? It would be interesting to see the the comparison of the L adapted to Sony vs the Sigma. I have had a pretty good experience adapting that lens.

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

I do some comparison to both lenses. I wish I still had the Tamron 35mm F1.4 on hand, as that lens was actually stronger in the corners than the Canon and would have been even better competition.

@Xetenor 4 года назад

Thanks for the wonderful review! Simply the best on youtube. This sigma 35 1.2 beauty along with the 105 1.4 is a seriously incredible combination for portraits and even some landscapes. In a way the 35 1.2 reminds me a lot of the 105 1.4. Very similar performance and prone to lens flare. They are the first two lenses I got on my A7RIII. Been SUPER happy!!

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

I think that's a reasonable assessment. It's a great compliment to that lens.

@utoronto99 4 года назад

Nice review, will be fun if the comparison can be done again with SEL35F1. 4 Zeiss

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

I can't vouch for that, as I don't know if I'll ever have both lenses at the same time.

@kunalmj 4 года назад

Thank you! Fantastic review, as always. I own the Samyang and this sigma looks very good as well. Is there a situation in which you would need such sharp corners at apertures below f2.8? In almost every situation, they are out of focus.

@SourDonut99 4 года назад

If you are shooting a group shot at a dark wedding for example. You might shoot at f1.2. People would be on the same focal plane and you're standing far enough back so the depth of field isn't a issue. That's when you would want edge to edge sharpness.

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

Ian has provided a reasonable situation, and I would add that I often compose near the edges for close focus shots where I want an out-of-focus scene beyond, but your point is a fair one. Classic portrait lenses often purposefully left corners a bit softer in order to allow for sharp centers and a smaller size.

@BoredErica 4 года назад

Is the Tamron 35mm f1.4 ever coming to Sony? Tamron 35mm vs Sigma 35mm f1.2 vs Sigma 40mm f1.4 would be such a fierce battle. Your experience that the 35mm gains more sharpness in the center but much less so in the corners stopping down 1 stop matches the measurements of Lensrentals. I like how you tested flare a bit. I read reviews for the three lenses but they all had very little flare testing. Maybe all the elements in the two Sigma lenses adding to the weight also make the flare a bit worse. Good review as always.

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

That particular Tamron will not come to Sony, as it is a DSLR design. I'm almost certain that Tamron will deliver a dedicated 35mm F1.4 at some point to Sony, and if it performs like the SP DSLR version, it would be a very special lens.

@dannyklesh 4 года назад

Dustin do you ever see tamron releasing the 45mm sony e mount

@chrisrout1654 4 года назад

Good round up as usual Dustin, but in your opinion, how would the new SP 35mm 1.4 Tamron fair against the Sigma?

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

That's a good question. I think the sharpness levels are similar, and it's possible that the Tamron has ever-so-slightly nicer rendering. The Sigma has an aperture advantage, obviously.

@chrisrout1654 4 года назад

@@DustinAbbottTWI That's good to hear, especially with the Tamron being the same size the Canon 35mm f1.4L and would be great seeing them all tested, but then that must be the story of your life being asked so many times to test certain lenses together! lol

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

Pretty much! And since I only have one of those lenses on hand right now (the Canon), that won't happen!

@ottawamountainman 4 года назад

Thanks. Great review! Question; it has 1/3 stop larger aperture over the sigma 35 1.4. But is it actually brighter (T-stop)? If you can comment on this and compare it with the 1.4 for sharpness in your final review that would be great.

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

I'm afraid this review series is already completed and the loaner lens returned to Sigma; I work in advance.

@SuperBuickregal 4 года назад

I wonder if they will make an EOS or RF mount in the future? Checked the website did not see either.

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

So far neither Tamron nor Sigma have announced any RF or Z mount lenses. The feeling I'm getting from my insiders is that they are taking a bit of a "wait and see" approach to see if those systems develop any real market share.

@SuperBuickregal 4 года назад

@@DustinAbbottTWI Thanks Dustin I guess that would make sense and on another note did you see Canon dropping the price on the RP & R cameras and the new Ra camera?

@micahturner5599 4 года назад

Hi Dustin, this is more about build than IQ, but is the focus ring linear? In that, could you use this lens for repeatable focus pulls?

Dustin,Do you predict Sigma will release the Sigma 35mm 1.2 for Canon and Nikon Mirrorless System?

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

So far my Sigma contacts (and Tamron, for that matter), have not made much noise about R and Z mounts. I think Canon's big sale and moving lots of EOS R units will help some, but the rumored R5 body could go a long way to pushing them in that direction.

@Roc900 4 года назад

Dustin Abbott I hope Sigma Release the 35mm 1.2 for Canon, I have seen some images from that Lens that is very impressive. I am Married to Canon and would strongly consider get a Mirrorless Body for that Lens. Sigma has really improved and stepped to the plate‼️I have the 85mm 1.4 Art and the 50mm 1.4 Art, I kinda wish I had purchased the 105mm vs. the 85mm.... Well as I digress, please keep us posted on new developments of Sigma release the 35mm 1.2 for Canon Love you work and thanks for sharing RR

@MrTacticalinuit 4 года назад

I can't see myself buying this over sony's 35mm f1.8, it's size and price makes so much more sense in my opinion. I have to carry my own gear and I need more than 1 lens in most of my shoots. If I walk around with 1 lens I want it to be relatively light.

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

That's obviously the weak link of this lens. The size makes it a poor fit for some photographers.

@logang865 4 года назад

In your opinion comparing image quality would you recommend the Sigma 35mm 1.2 or Sony Zeiss Planar 50mm 1.4?

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

I think the Planar has slightly more contrast, but the Sigma is sharper at larger apertures.

@TheDeadTexan 4 года назад

I definitely would. I had three different copies of the 1.4 and had to sent them all back because of bad QC. Gave up and just got the 24GM on launch day but I still miss the 35mm focal length. This one look to be just perfect for what I need.

@dwightlooi 4 года назад

Can somebody make a high IQ 25-50 F3.3? - Lenses are not great or worth the money simply because they have a wide aperture. The sad thing about the FE mount is that the company who chose to focus on high IQ lenses of moderate aperture - namely Zeiss - had also chosen to make their entire Batis line unnecessarily FAT. I love the fact that the 3rd parties are stepping up with more choices for the mount. But, I really want a SMALL lens with superlative IQ, not giant bazookas.

@DustinAbbottTWI 4 года назад

I've never seen a lens with quite that focal length, and I suspect that marketing an F3.3 aperture would be near impossible (F3.2 is actually the third stop). I fail to see where a lens like that would be better than, say, the Tamron 28-75mm F2.8, which is already quite compact and light and has excellent image quality.
