Which 35mm lens do you own now and what do you think of the 35mm 1.8 after seeing what it can do?

@icbvisuals6200 5 лет назад

Heyyyy MANYYYYYY can u send me a lens please??? lol 😂🤔

@jasonjones8938 5 лет назад

I personally have the sigma 35 1.4 and love it. It's usually my go to for family portraits and such.

@andysmith5221 5 лет назад

I'd like to see what it's like compared to the sigma 35mm 1.4 art because I nearly bought that the other week on the day of the Sony announcement.

@MannyOrtiz 5 лет назад

Andy Smith I’m personally not a fan of the 35mm sigma. It’s just way to large for these camera bodies (for a 35)

@andysmith5221 5 лет назад

I thought the Ziess was about the same size as the sigma.

@nicknewmanmusic1787 5 лет назад

1.4 pounds vs 284 grams. What wait? Use the same system, don't be switching Metric and Imperial like that! FYI 1.4 pounds is 635 grams

@LaLajki 5 лет назад

That's true but it is virtually double the weight, so that is definately something to consider when buying.

@sarahswaagman9316 5 лет назад

Thank you so much for making these videos. Every time I convince myself I need a lens, I come search your videos for a comparison and usually see very quickly that a lot of times that the difference in quality isn't near as great and the difference in price. Thanks again!

@andysmith5221 5 лет назад

Yay, I was waiting on this seeing as I have pre ordered the Sony 35mm 1.8. I'll watch it when I get home 😄

@Stealther 5 лет назад

What about sharpness of the 1.4 when stopped down to 1.8? Also would you compare it to the 35 f/2.8?

@mikethecreative 5 лет назад

Thank you so much for this comparison. I already preordered the 35/1.8 and can’t wish for it to arrive. I was always hesitant about getting the 35/1.4 due to its size and the wait for the 35/1.8 but it looks like me being patient finally paid off. You just helped me solidify my purchase. Thanks again!

@JasondePlater 5 лет назад

I have the 35 f1.4 and still feel happy about that after seeing this video. The only things I prefer on the f1.8 is the weight and price. I love the Zeiss style rendering and it’s plenty sharp, especially for portraits. I like the aperture ring as I shoot in aperture priority.

@trogdor 4 года назад

Thanks for this comparison. A couple things. 1. Others have mentioned this before comparing weights needs to be in the same system 2. If you hate the aperture ring, just get gaffer's tape and keep it at A and use the camera dials, or if you like shooting at a specific aperture, tape it at that setting.

how is the manual focus of the 35mm 1.8? Is it focus by wire or linear? Does it have hard stops or some end points to it when you manual focus?

@icebearliu6403 4 года назад

hi Manny, long time viewer and really appreciate your work. I was already decided to go for the Fe 35/1.8 after watching your vids, but now i am stuck. for now i can find used (in good condition) 35/1.4za around 900USD (or less), and the new 35/1.8 cost around 655USD new here where I live. May i know when cost difference is controlled within 300USD, is the 35/1.4za a better choice? I am a hobbyist whom only use for family/travel/pet. thanks in advance.

@charliipresley 4 года назад

Any thoughts on how the 28mm f2 compares to the 35mm 1.8?? I’ve always been a fan of the 28mm f2 and always planned to just to a 35mm 1.8 whenever it came out. Now that it’s out and it’s $750 I’m wondering how much different it actually is from the $350 28mm (have used the 35mm 1.4 Sigma and Zeiss but don’t want to spend that much and want something more compact)...

@simonomis5246 4 года назад

Great video as always Manny, very informative! Thx for your work! I also have the 35 1.4 ZA and I will also buy the 1.8 especially because of faster AF speed in low light for events but I'll also keep the 1.4 to use it in studio or when I need creamier bokeh..

@MartySteinberg 5 лет назад

I’m super interested in a comparison of the new Sony 35/1.8 vs Sony-Zeiss 35/2.8. How much of an advantage is the extra stop in the 1.8 really worth? How does focusing and ultimately IQ compare? Thx

Bro which one u recommend as first lens with sony a7iv, 35 1.4 zeiss or tamron 28-75mm g2. ? I m getting both at same price, please reply

@dwmspace 5 лет назад

Nice review but as a suggestion, why don’t you use gaffer tape to fix down the aperture ring? You could leave it at F1.4 or on A and change aperture in camera. Where bokeh is king, I’d pick the F1.4 still. Even if you don’t like it, I think having the aperture ring is a plus, especially for video.

@leonardporrello7033 3 года назад

I loved to hear your opinion about the rendering. Lots of folks do the technical evaluations, and your subjective view is really where you add value. I've found the same thing about the SZ 35 1.4. It is magical sometimes. I'd love to see reviews where you talk mostly about the subjective aspects of lenses.

@taniav.7409 4 года назад

Hi, Manny. I've bought 35mm 1.8 lens and noticed that the focus group, inside the lens is moving freely, when lens is not connected to the camera, or when the camera is turned off. Is this normal behavior of VCM, or should the focus group remain locked when not powered? I don't know any person who has this lens so I can't understand whether my lens is properly functioning. Please advise on that. Thank you!

@FarEastSurvival 5 лет назад

35mm 1.4 gives dreamy images. I would keep it if I had it or buy it used as there would be plenty available. If you can afford it I would keep both. One for the studio and the other for the street.

@OskayNejat 4 года назад

Hello, I want to ask you something. if you could have chance to buy only one lens, Which one you choose ? 35mm f1.4 Zeiss or 55mm f1.8 ? And one more question, if you have a Zeiss 35mm 1.4za already, what would be your second lens ? 55mm 1.8 or Sony FE 85mm 1.8 ? I am really excited about what you think. Thank you

@freeston1 5 лет назад

Niice video Manny. Thanks. I'm using the Tamron 28-75mm f2.8 for that 35mm zone right now. Any idea how much improvement I would get upgrading to the 35mm 1.8? (besides the faster aperture). I work in video exclusively, mostly documentary and I already have teh 55mm f1.8 that I looooove for interviews and such.

@ostryjanusz 5 лет назад

Too bad you didn't test the lenses for light transmission. Set it on fixed shutter and aperture and look at the iso on both photos to see how much light you really lose. Also, there's also the samyang 35 1.4 which doesn't have the aperture ring.

@stevenwaldstein2249 Месяц назад

Thanks for the video. I’ve owned both of these lenses but a while ago moved on to best in class 35/1.4 GM and I still have that. Problem is I now need a smaller lighter lens for my compact “C” bodies so I’m considering picking up a used FE 35/1.8. Is it still worth buying as a travel lens? I want something at least f/2 or f/1.8 so it can be used in lower light. Unlike you though I like an aperture ring but since they added the front dial on the A7CR I can live without it. Take care.

@mystahgerri8178 5 лет назад

@malaybasu961 5 лет назад

Other than the weight, do you think 24GM 1.4 is a better buy than 35 mm 1.8, if you're both a APSC and full-frame shooter? That 24mm is actually 35, 2.1 on A6xxx.

@69lenses 4 года назад

Lens looks so decent but sometimes for me it'd be a bit too wide. I'm thinking about getting a Rokinon 45mm f1.8 FE, maybe you've got this lens in your plans to test out? Would be useful to know what you think about it since your reviews and thoughts have helped me a few times already :)

I own the 2.8 also but 2.8 isnt high enough aperture. Its an old lens ( the 1st they brought out for the a7 system ) this is a much better option. Plus you are paying for a Zeiss badge in my opinion.

@LastSoldier1 5 лет назад

I have the 35mm 2.8 too, for sure this newer 1.8 prime will have more improved bokeh, cleaner bokeh balls, and maybe less vignetting than the zeiss. I would probably trade the zeiss in for this new model based on my mentioned observations. The lens might have been cheaper too;$100-$200 off but due to increased tax on china goods we are left to this final price.
