OMG the skipping down the path hand-in-hand 😂 You guys have the best bromance

For the bokeh comparison I think it's much more interesting how the blur of busy backgrounds look than how highlights look.

You all are amazing. Probably my favorite KZfaqrs for overview camera/lens reviews

As always: Perfect round up of all information I want to have on a lens. Great job, keep on going!

I love your videos. I really love seeing what both Chris and Jordan’s take on lenses, and cameras are. All your videos have made me, a novice photographer become a much better one. Thank you guys for the inspiration!

00:38 so true! the best part of your videos are those 10, 15 sec where jordan is allowed to talk!

I sure love it when Chris and Jordan bring out new videos. I like to think that Jordan is my uncle and Chris is the one filming us.

That chart is everything.

I demand from now on all DPR TV videos start with Chris&Jordan frolicking while holding hands.

I have the 35mm F2 Sigma and really like it. Build quality is just amazing. I liked the 58mm filter size as it matches the GH5 lenses filter thread size and I already had NDs, etc. When it came to 24mm, I considered waiting for the sigma, but saw the filter thread size and instead opted for the Rokinon 24mm f1.8 AF compact. While build quality isn't as nice as the Sigma, the size, weight, filter size of 58mm, and quality of image/autofocus has been great! Price at $499 for the Rokinon is really great as well for E mount.

That cadaver reference had me in stitches!!!

Well, thanks,Chris and Jordan ( nice haircut, btw) it seems like I already have the lenses I need with the FE85f1.8 and the FE24f1.4. Always fun to check out new lenses though!

Great review, as always! Starting to regret though that i waited too long to buy the Sony GM 24/1.4 that was on sale till yesterday. :)

"365, like the days in this godforsaken year." I felt that.

ha! This is one of the best videos you guys have released. And I totally agree, btw, with the assessment at the end. With the Panasonic options, it's a hard sell. (24mm 1.8 and 85mm 1.8 for L mount.)

As always the review is QUALITY! 👍

I’m laying here half asleep and I see the cameras you’re using, and I think “wait a minute, this isn’t a fair comparison in regards to sharpness because the S5 doesn’t have an AA filter”….aaannd then you both mentioned it. You guys never miss a step 😎

Great to see that lens chart - any idea where the centre rectangle is from? I like all the info it packs on. Keep the reviews coming!

Even though they are lenses I'll never own on a system that I don't have I still watch and enjoy ☺️ Sigma is making some great lenses at great prices

I think the 90mm is more versatile for studio portraiture than the 85mm because of its shorter focus distance and better sharpness. As always a good video!

JJ Abrams would love the ghosting on that 90 at F16.

probably the best news i woke up too what a great time to be a photographer 📷

For these 2 guys DPReview TV doubled !

I have the 45mm and I love it! It's my favorite lens

BTW both filter sizes mentioned at 2:50, especially 55mm, are quite common on Sony/Minolta A-mount lenses and a few E-mount lenses. 62mm: 16-80, 18-135, 55-300 (A-mount) and 12mm Samyang with AF, 10-18 and 90mm Macro (E-mount) 55mm: A lot of A-mount lenses and 18-135 (E-mount)

gosh I love you two, so funny together 😂

Great job using the test chart to show LOCA! It makes it more comparable between different lenses if you use the same chart instead of a different real-world test every time :)

Great Video!

Looking forward to a comparison with the new LUMIX 24 f1.8!

The soapbubble bokeh makes it look 10times better than much of the competition! I was so hoping for a AF lens with a moderate bubble bokeh to come out! Not for the stupid highlight bubbles, but for the much more defined and interesting everyday blurs. Just my taste!

The chart is a nice addition! Christopher Frost vibes

Entertaining as usual, but it'd be nice to see how the lenses flair when exposed to flashlights/brights lights for the JJ Abrams among us....

I think Sigma is creating an epic system for landscape shooters. I've often thought that all I need in the tiniest black box i can get with a full frame sensor, and sharp compact primes... so these lenses on say a Sigma FP-L.... ohhhh boi!

I love my Sigma 65mm I series. It is hard on skin but Sony has the built in over processing . Looking at this 90mm I series

i would love the aperture ring and i love sigma lenses but im also a weight saver at first, so i might get the SY 24 1.8. its only 230g. the tiny series is really sigmas only alternative here.

Please test out the Panasonic 24 mm, very curious to hear your thoughts on it.

Chris, you wouldn't happen to have been downtown Vancouver yesterday would you? Also, love the new chart 😂

Again, are you sure about weather sealing apart from that one seal at the lens mount?

From all the Jordans I know you are indeed my favorite

It’s good to see Chris and Jordan enjoy their time together, just like several years ago.

Now we have fractions on the Noct Scale, 2/11, love it.

Jordan is looking good these days!

The place looks really beautiful. Where did you guys shoot the video?

Loads of great prime options not forgetting the Samsung af lenses too. As a nikon z shooter this makes me pretty jealous.

Sunstars! When will you bring out a video that test the best lenses for Sunstars? I used to shoot with a Canon 16-35 f4 that produced fantastic sunstars. However I'm now on Sony and have not found anything with a native Sony mount that match this performance.

Clicked like for the slow mo intro

I would love this in RF mount

Every time y'all say something is "metal" in a voice over I totally imagine you have your horns up or a lighter out. I imagine a little Bill and Ted guitar trill too.

How does this Sigma perform on the Sony A1? Does it support 30fps?

You've both overlooked something in your testing. Sun stars do require a stopped down aperture, but f/16 is mathematically way beyond the point of diffraction. Diffraction is hard limited purely by pixel size. The bigger the pixel, the less diffraction. That translates into hard stops for sensor sizes and megapixels. For example, a 12MP full frame camera is the ONLY resolution and size that can shoot at f/16 without diffraction. Change to 20MP, and that f/16 diffraction limit turns more into f/12. Downsize to APSC with the same resolution, and that f/12 turns more into f/8. Basically all APSC sensors are at least diffraction limited at f/8 or so, most full frame sensors are diffraction limited at f/12 or lower even. All you get from there is a softer image. And that's why the sun stars weren't very good.

I hope this means that the main test chart will be updated to include Jimi Hendrix's personal effects.

still waiting for the sigma 70-200/2.8 E mount lens, it talking to be release for more than year now and still no any news.. :(

How about Samyang 24mm F1.8? Seems like a killer lens for astro and landscape...really sharp and affordable from what i seen on reviews.

Its true that Jordan is my favorite. 😁🤘

I don’t need 24mm but I want one for when I travel. This is a perfect 24mm to get instead of the more expensive f1.4 versions. I wish it was 1.8 but f2 is close enough.

Nice combo!

It's so sad, Samyang is neglected and invisible as usual.

About testing sharpness of a Lens, no Lens perform equal at every distance. I wish for much more in depth reviews of Lenses.

In 24 I would happily buy the Samyang 24/1.8 AF. And If I have the money, the 24/1.4 GM. In 90 or similar, the native 85/1.8 are great and not a lot of money. So, these two? Nice lenses, but I would skip.

Your sensor needs a lil bit of tender loving clean up 5:09 .. 😊

How much for the EF-mount version?

My dream is sigma adding a 105/135mm f2.8 and a 18/20mm f2.8 to this series

Is this for fuji x bodies or just sony?

You know those series' with stories within stories? We need you to zoom in on Jordan's Amadeus shirt once in a while as a window to another world... Wooden Nicholls? That 90mm is a perfect complement to anyone with one of the Art-series 85s, but if you only have one then the Panasonic is fast and, err, fast.

Why is everyone sleeping on Samyang 24mm f1.8?

Leica like built quality and results for these petit jewels. Now Sigma please make a 105 and 135 teles and 20 and 16mm wides for this series so that one can have a whole arsenal!

Dark!

Thanks for the sample gallery, really helped me to decide if the F2 is what iam looking for. Spoiler: it is. Just preordered it :D

now we need sigma to add a zoom lens to the contemporary line with that build quality 😳 i would buy that in a heartbeat even pay $1000 or more for it

RF or Z mount please.

No RF mount ?

I can only remember 0:25 to 0:31 of this video. Absolutely nothing else.....LOL

When is the release date for these lenses? Specifically the 24mm

What a cute and gorgeous daughter you have Chris. Keeping the red hair gene alive.

Love the new Canadian test pattern!

No no, I am going with this 90mm over any 85mm... because I am planning on trying to walk passed security guards on a concert and have a slight hope they will mistake my sony a7c (with this Sigma lens) as a regular 'tourist camera'. Even the smallest of the 85mm are too big in my opinon. (I am just a regular fan... not a concert photographer... so getting my camera inside is going to be a gamble...) Edit: Well... turns out the guards don't care one bit if you bring a camera. I even managed to get my Sigma 135mm in without issue. They only wanted to know if I had any waterbottles. Which I didn't, so I could just walk right in. It was a bit of a hassle switching lenses though, so perhaps a zoom lens would be better. I personally found that lighting wasn't such an issue, there were more than enough light on the stage, with all of the strobe and spotlights. (Though annoyingly some of the colored lights left banded stripes on the photos, so that sucked.)

pleas do vido bout sigma

I wanna see a 135mm f3.5

The height difference between you is really massive, I knew about it but I see it now

How can that be a Canadian lens test chart??? No hockey pucks? No bacon? No Tim Horton's? No Molson??? That would be like making an American lens chart without guns, sleeveless T-shirts, and watered-down beer.

Samyang 24mm 1.8 all the way!

🤩👌

The autofocus tone sounds like cricket

My suspicions about their orientation has proved right.

Great job guys. Waiting for you to review Fuji’s new 23 f1.4 soon. Cheers

Jordan, was that a skip!?

Your board is missing a bottle of Moosehead and Canadian bacon.

PLEASE, don't use the moiré chart as a center sharpness tool. The dollar bill is much better for judging sharpness.

In case no one has said so already: These lenses are NOT weather sealed, only the gasket.

Lol, you guys are hilarious together :)

I loved the s1h footages better. Don’t know why

Finally A7siii replaced your Nikon z6 as your main camera 🤣

You found an old dollar bill!!! Add a maple syrup label to the chart.

I don't understand why you guys think sunstars are so important. You can use an effect filter if you want them, it looks too much as a gimmick. I think that it is much more important what a lens does in the dark with street lights wide open, or against the sun wide open. Maybe more difficult to test scientifically?

I returned my Sigma 90mm. It had serious bokeh issues with straight lines leadings up to the focus point... Showed the camera store and they completely agreed and refunded my money. Anybody else seen this?

Ahh I have the same ugly looking bamboo wall!

Why Sigma overlap the 24mm, this one should be 28mm f2

Your thumbnail says 90mm F2 o_O

Chris... no slippers again TAT

Chris will never learn to wear real shoes.
