Manny, you have come a long way over the years. There was a time where you, along with most of us, would have fallen in love with any new G-Master lens and immediately recommended it as a must have. Now that the Sony ecosystem has evolved, you have a much more practical viewpoint towards their gear. It’s much appreciated.

@hecjvaldez 10 месяцев назад

I would love a Tamron 17-28 G2. The 67mm filter is a huge win for me

@TungstenOvergaard 10 месяцев назад

You are giving your entire honesty. Very much appreciated.

@kanaheiusagi 10 месяцев назад

Really appreciate your honesty and comparison to existing competition. No doubt the 16-35GM2 is the best lens of its class, but its not a necessary lens.

@DrEarbuds 10 месяцев назад

Manny I'm feeling these videos . Your review on the new Sony cameras was the best on RU-vid.

Personally I have the Sony 16-35mm F4 PZ and that lens for size and internal zoom for video is my go to. If I really have to stop down I usually have a prime with me.

Sigma 14-24 2.8 is superb for the times I want to shoot wider than 24, but that new GMII looks sweet.

@juanmm9297 10 месяцев назад

Love the Tamron 17-28, if I was to upgrade I would buy the 16-35 mark 1 because I cannot justify the mark 2 upgrade

@EasyTigerCreative 9 месяцев назад

I just use my Tamron 20-40 f2.8 by Tamron. I was fine giving up the extra wide for some extra 35-40 range! I’m still able to Vlog with it but can do more everyday things with it.

@alan_kylim 9 месяцев назад

If compare with 17-28 thats 12mm extra reach at 40. I am using 20-40 too, 17-28 feels like just gonna use it for very specific purpose shoot, hard to make use of it for day to day walk-around lens.

I’m having a hard time deciding between the price, versatility and for what and where I would use it. I have until Christmas this year to think. For now I’ll have to enjoy my Viltrox 16mm f1.8. I just bought a the a7iv coming from the fuji xt20. Taking small steps with these big decisions. ❤

@roshersmith 10 месяцев назад

@EricHa94 4 месяца назад

If I’m just starting out getting my first wide angle zoom and there’s no other wide angle zoom with me. Would you recommend me getting a 16-35gmii? Mainly because I don’t have any other wide angle lenses to fall back to.

@PhotoTrekr 10 месяцев назад

I'll be going with the 16-35mm GM II.

@PhotoTrekr 7 месяцев назад

FWIW, I changed my mind and returned the 16-35 GM II. Marginally shorter and lighter than the original. Costs a lot. It is usable at 35mm which the original wasn't. But, I rarely shoot wider than 24mm which my 24-70 GM II covers. So, I ended up buying the 20mm G, again, which is an excellent lens. If I do find that I want to shoot even wider, I'll probably buy the 14mm GM, again, which is also excellent.

@303badassboxer 9 месяцев назад

Should’ve made it an f2. The RF 28-70 is the best lens on earth outside of the big dogs like the 400 and 600 2.8’s

@starskymedia 9 месяцев назад

Love your videos Manny, but you didnt compare to the 16-35 F4 PZ! That lens is almost identical except that it is lighter, much cheaper and has internal power zoom, though obviously F4 vs F2.8. But for less than the price of the new GM II, you can also get the 24 1.4 GM lens, which is obviously way better in low light and has a more dramatic difference compared to F4

@gilcarag274 8 месяцев назад

Or even the 20mm G 1.8 which is extremely good value and very very sharp. Wider, lighter, smaller. Should probably be a GM lens and not a G.

@edventures9884 8 месяцев назад

Wish he actually used it and showed us some shots but I feel like he was in a rush to get this video and just to talk about it. Heavily considering this lens or the Sony 24-70 gmii

@firpofutbol 6 месяцев назад

The Tamron has internal zoom which might make it better for video than Sony if using a gimbal. Plus it's 25% lighter. The Sigma I've seen other reviewsputs out a nice image, sharp with good contrast but has issues with vignetting if using a step up ring with your ND at 16mm making it kinda pointless to have the extra 1mm over Tamron when you can't use it. Also the bokeh is much nicer from Sony and Tamron IMO. Considering the price I'm going Tamron.

@danielprislovsky7267 9 месяцев назад

My Sony 16-35mm F/2.8 GM II arrived in the mail just now. As someone who has handled it, can you tell me if the barrel is supposed to be loose inside? Lens works well, but when you turn it over, the insides literally feel like they're slamming back and forth. I've never had a lens do that. Normal? Thanks!!

@jordanturner4783 8 месяцев назад

@salahuddinmahmood1452 10 месяцев назад

I have the 16-35 PZ F4 with the ZVE1. It’s a good lense how ever at night time you do need to bump up the iso. It’s not the best for night.

@cedricphoo 10 месяцев назад

@@salahuddinmahmood1452 ZVE1 has a great low light performance, with second base ISO of 12,800. So in the night time, 16mm F4 with ISO 25,600 and above, is it acceptable? Also what do you think about the weight of your combo? thanks a lot!

@salahuddinmahmood1452 10 месяцев назад

Zve1 has amazing low light. This is my first camera and lense ever. Saw lots of reviews online for both. F4 does limit light at night and the background blur (you do have background defocus in the ZVE1 to compensate for that). I am not sure what ISO I tried it in but it was pretty decent. Weight wise like I said I have nothing to compare it against but it’s very easy to carry around (vlog style included). Here is a video I made with the kit. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1DeVELHYWH0.htmlsi=zb22MfxVmNw_6F5m.

@mredben 10 месяцев назад

If you earn money with your top equipment, the price difference of 1000 to 1500 euros is insignificant. Most do not earn money and so it is an expensive hobby for most. Especially since most photos become nothing anyway. No matter how expensive the camera is.

If you need to release a new lens after 6 years I consider that to be a failure. The first version was rushed just like 24-70mm f2.8 GM That lens was garbage even dslr version of Canon 24-70mm f2.8 mkii was way better optically.

@jayrichjlr 10 месяцев назад

Your review was very ‘meh’. Your sentiment of hating these style videos was evident. Spent a lot of time talking Tamron and showing very little of what the GM could do. Not even sure you showed sample photos.

@nickguzman1734 10 месяцев назад

Yeah I don't understand why Manny keeps pumping out this content when he has made it clear time and time again that he hasn't enjoyed making these vids for quite some time now. "I don't like doing review videos," or ,"cameras are so good nowadays that reviews aren't that fun," we've heard those sentiments several times now. And it's a shame bc I love Manny's vlogs, I like the photo competitions he used to be in, and I liked his videos with portrait tips
