When I got the Sigma 16-28 f 2.8 for my Sony A7iv, there was a noticeable difference in their minimum-focus-distances as well as their focus breathing. This was enough of a difference that it means I can't use the Sigma in the same way I use the Tamron, which is a bummer.
But, I wanted to do these tests to show you the differences so you can see those differences and make up your own mind.
I hope this information helps. Cheers!!

The more videos I watch the more I'm realizing that the 17-28mm is a pretty incredible buy for the price. Great sharpness, low focus breathing, good autofocus, and just wide enough that it gets the job done for most gigs. Definitely happy that I ordered one.

@starletdancetv

I just purchased the Tamron 17-28 before I watched your video. Now, that I have watched this video, I am sure I made a good decision. Subscribed!

@quarantinos

Are you at 17mm on both ?

@Chris_Lan

hey I bought the Simga 16-28 before watching this video and cancelled the order right after. Because mostly make videos, MFD and the focus breath is a huge deal breaker. I am VERY glad that I saw this video.

@LeandroLinares

It was refreshing to watch a lens review focused on real-world scenarios instead of just the same that's all over youtube. I've been trying to decide bw these 2 lenses for a while and this is the only useful video I watched so far that answers the questions that I have. Great work.

Thanks a lot for doing these comparison!! Very useful ! 🙏

@onotaro4740

It seems that Tamron has a smoother bokeh.

@johnlocke3481

Dang! You just saved me from getting the sigma. Thank you!

@albiealexanderii1547

you audio is so good what is your setup here?

Wow, man. subscribed - you really went out of your way to be diligent and accurate. I've been going back and forth between these two (don't wanna fork over for the Sony version) and I think I'm sold on the Tamron now. I have 2 other Tamron lenses and I love them - they seem to make high quality, comparable glass at a much sexier price point.

My english is terrible. sorry..

@sydneydance

This was really interesting. Great to see the difference from a practical perspective. I like how you showed how different these lenses operated for someone actually working with them using examples. This is not just a standard review video with very shallow practical examples of operation. Thanks for sharing! Also, interestingly, the minimum focus distance for the new GM II 16-35mm lens is 22cm. So somewhere between the Sigma and the Tamron. I think the Tamron is a bit ahead with its minimum focus distance capabilities.

@TheDIYFilmmaker

Thank you so much. This is the best comparison I’ve found. I was thinking changing my Tamron for the Sigma, but I will definitely stay with the Tamron. Cheers!

Thank you for the information share and testing. I agree with your review, we need more videos like this before buying the products. There is too much commercial videos nowadays.
