One thing to mention in regards to these vs viltrox pro series is that the sirui have little to no focus breathing while the viltrox lenses have the worst throughout all x mount lenses
The problem with people is that , they always think that a more expensive lens is better than the cheaper ones but that's not the case . The yongnuo 85mm f1.8 is the sharpest lens ever reviewed by DXOmark but it cost only around $378. Sirui lenses are great and some of them are far better than viltrox lenses . I bought the viltrox 33mm f1.4 , I returned it because it makes a hell of noise and the image was really soft . A more expensive lens does not mean better image quality.
Have you tried Fuji's 18mm LM WR 1.4? I'm looking for a versatile video lens for Fuji, but the can't choose between Fuji's 18mm or 23mm. Not really a fan of Sigma, and the new Viltrox 27mm look nice, but it's quite big and has autofocus breathing issues.
Hi Pascal ! Do you have any personal experience or information about whether the Viltrox AF27mm lens responds to the optional AF-C setting? I would like to use it not only for photos but also for videos. I had the Viltrox AF23mm lens and it was not compatible with the optional AF-C setting. At the end of the video you mentioned the basic AF-C setting, so does Sirui support it? Thanks
I understand what you’re saying about not having to shoot at 1.2, but it’s not good enough to buy lenses with specs you can’t use. Pointless. Plus, there are lenses like the Viltrox 27mm f1.2 and it’s sharp at 1.2. Certainly a great video, but there are too many compromises.
@@pascalbasel Do you know I've had that Sniper lens for like 3 months and I'm like, "Why only one Fstop?!" So I'm guessing if it doesn't have aperture blades it's done through the camera's software?!
Hi Pascal, der von Dir gezeigte Adapter kann ich irgendwie nicht finden, lediglich ein 1.25x Adapter wird bei Sirui angeboten. Hättest Du mal einen link dazu?
I think these are APS-C so you'd likely have to use a S35/APS C crop mode in your FF camera if it has one, otherwise it won't cover the whole FF sensor. I wish it were FF but I imagine the cost would be way higher lol
