Lenses used in this video:
16mm geni.us/ypu56
30mm geni.us/4AewM
56mm geni.us/Qoav
In a previous video I tested the 3 Sigma Primes against each other to see how they compared for portrait photography: • Sigma 16mm vs 30mm vs ...
In this video I conduct a similar test to see how they perform in talking head / interview situations.
I thought it would be useful to see how much you can fit in the frame at distances from 1-3 metres.
I hope it helps and please leave any questions in the comments - oh and give it a thumbs up to help me fight the algorithm! 🙌🏼

As others have stated, we searched thru KZfaq for a video such as this one. It wasn't easy! There are many such videos but all fall short in terms of what people are looking for. I have a podcast channel and was thinking about using a different lens that would fit my needs. Your video was exactly what I was looking for: there was measured distance, you put the lenses thru their use, and it was important for me to see how much background information would appear in the video. Thank you sir! Well done and thoroughly informational! You deserve more views.

Thank you so much for this video. I recently moved to a mirrorless camera and thought it was time for an upgrade. Been twisting myself in knots trying to decide which one to grab. This was great. Love the channel. Gone through quite a few videos and there's a lot of inspiration here. Might try and pick up the 30mm as well. Seriously appreciate it. Easy subscribe.
