Sigma 16mm 1.4 Review [Sony e mount] - Is it too good to be true?
Рет қаралды 891,452
Күн бұрын★ The Sigma 16mm 1.4 Review for Sony E mount ★ Is this the lens that every owner of the a6500, a6300, and a6000 should own? Or is it too good to be true?
16mm on the Sony APS-C is a fantastic focal range, just wide enough without being ultrawide. Then, keep in mind that f1.4 aperture and you have to know that this lens is going to make a splash. Think it's too good to be true?

I've bought this lens recently and have been using it for some time with a6400. It sure is great lens. Video looks good even with 4k you can tell the difference. The only problem I have is that it distorts edges with 1.4-1.8. Strangly it shows only with photo, video is ok. Its just a minor issue and its not a problem for me. I like the quite, fast and relible autofocus. I'm glad I watched your video.

There is a setting in the camera that might correct the distortion automatically. But definitely if you’re editing photos in Lightroom, there is a lens profile to correct that!

Oh yes, i didn't know you have a gimbal ! I speak only for myself, but i believe in handeld, haha. I really like the way it feels in the video ( of course if you not shake as a sick guy, but if you know how to be steady enough, and with the stabilization in the a6500, it's just perfect for my kind of cinematic vlog style videos..) After my two last video speaking in front of a table inside my flat, i've realized that this is not what i like to do..

I have the A6000 plus the Sigma and I'm very happy with it, it's fantastic for low light situations but sometimes too shallow depth of field if you take a picture of a group at the Christmas dinner table. If you do need to use flash then one minor drawback is that it blocks out the lower left part of the photo so you have to manually tilt the flash a little bit.
@dunnadidit 5 жыл бұрын
Yeah that’s definitely true, the on camera flash only really fully works with tiny lenses. The 16mm is not a large lens in the grand scheme of things but it still gets in the way. I only think I’ve ever used the on camera flash once on any of my Sony cameras though so it definitely hasn’t been an issue for me. Sorry it’s causing trouble for you!

to be fair, you should be tilting the flash no matter the lens. gives you nice, bounced light.

Hahahaha that’s a new one! People have told me I look like him before but never asked if I was the lost brother lol. Yeah the 10-18 looks pretty awesome, although sometimes f4 just leaves something to the imagination and doesn’t quite do it for low light. However, a lot of people really love that lens so there must be something to it! I do love my 16mm though so I’d vote for that one! I am definitely going to do some color grading videos in the future! Thanks for asking! And thanks for watching!

I was recently in Japan and thought about buying this lense, but I mostly use my fullframe A7 III and i have a zeiss 16-35, so i allready have this focal length covered, because of that i forgot about this lens pretty quickly. I have a a6300 as a secondary camera and after i saw this video i kind of regret not buing one especially since it is almost 100€ cheaper in Japan (so it just costs 300€ there). At the same time, i think, that i am more interested in a fast prime with this focal length not this lens especially , so i might save up some cash and eventually buy a 24mm 1.4 or similar for my a7. (i bought an 50mm 1.1 instead for 250€ wich is a killer deal as well)

Hi! Thanks for the video. You mentioned the lense paired with the a6400 (or other models with no IBIS) should not cause any issues when taking photos. Can you still confirm it after more than a year? What would be the closest alternative to The Sigma 16mm but with lense stabilization?
@dunnadidit 4 жыл бұрын
I use this lens with my a6400 all the time. I also use it for video as long as I’m careful or have it on a tripod. I haven’t been able to find anything similar with OSS except for zoom lenses.

If you watch your shutter speed hand held it's like any other lens on the planet (no problem). It's even less of a problem because it's so wide.
@okaro6595 3 жыл бұрын
Without IBIS you may just need to use a slightly shorter shutter speed. With 1/60s you should manage always, by being careful and talking several shots if needed you should manage up to 1/15 s or even longer. Also remember that if the subject is moving IS is useless on short focal lengths as you need to use short shutter speed anyway.

Seems like focal length and aperture would be ideal for astrophotography. Any idea how the coma is on the lens?
@dunnadidit 5 жыл бұрын
From what I can tell it would be a great Astro lens. No big issues with coma that I’ve seen.

Hello, good video! Do you think the 16mm f1.4 is necessary if I have a sigma 18-35 f1.8 art in an a6500? I do not think much difference from 24mm to 27mm in full frame mode but it is in my mind if I buy a second equipment or a gimbal. regards
@dunnadidit 5 жыл бұрын
Like you said, on a gimbal it’s a bit tough for the 18-35. But as far as a decent wide angle photography lens, I think the 18-35 is great. The quality is a bit better than the 16 and I didn’t mind the fact that it wasn’t quite as wide. Might be a bit redundant to have both as long as you’re ok with the size and weight of the 18-35.

Great review and examples dude! I've had this lens for almost a year now but your thumbnail was too enticing not to click!🙌 I think the thing I love the most about this lens is the fact that it's SO fast for such a wide lens, that you almost get a full frame aesthetic from the images, despite being on a 1.5x crop.

Hello Dunna :) I was planning for the Sony 10-18mm f4, Is this Sigma 16mm f1.4 worth buying over the above Sony lens? Or should I go for Sony if I can?
@dunnadidit 6 жыл бұрын
I love my 16mm f1.4 but it all depends on what you need! Do you think you need it to go all the way to 10mm? And do you shoot in low light often?

Dunna Did It Thank you for replying. I was planning to enter Astro photography, and night scenes. Plus I also wanted to do wide angle sharp landscapes. I already have 18-105 and wanted something wider than that.
@dunnadidit 6 жыл бұрын
For Astro, the 16mm would be great, you want to have a nice wide aperture so you can keep your iso down. :) I think I would go that way based on what you’re saying :)

Dunna Did It wow that's kind of you. Im a newbie to all this although been researching for the last 6 months and want to pull the trigger now, I don't think I can hold out to the a6700. It's mainly going to be for video lthough I do want to get into still portraits, it's just that to my eye there is not much difference in quality . I'll be shooting golf courses and perhaps some music videos for friends with the view of charging money as and when I get better and maybe some wedding vids. I have about 2400 uk pounds , a6500 body is on offer at the mo for 1000, I could get maybe 3 half decent lenses. Do I get the a6500 and if I start to make some money out of it keep it as a b roll camera? Or just jump into the a7iii and be more future proof.,Many thank
@dunnadidit 6 жыл бұрын
To be honest, I would say go with the a6500 and a few decent lenses. It’s tried and tested and people generally love it. I’ve shot music videos on my Sony a6000 and they turned out great and made me enough money to buy the a6500 so you can definitely do the same from the a6500 to the a7iii. I’ve been eyeing up the a7iii as well, but the a6500 is still just so good that it’s hard to not suggest it for the price and what you get for it. It’s definitely a tough call to make but I’ve heard enough people say that the glass is more important than the camera to push in that direction for sure. Hopefully that’s helpful!

Great video mate! Really helped my decision for my a6400. I've been using the kit lens 18-135mm. It's been quite limiting for my needs. I was looking for something wider that doesn't break the bank. Or try the Sony E - 10- 18mm. Hmmm? 🤔 Either way. Thanks for this video. Still great 4 years later!
