Hey thanks! So I might have to make a video about it, but to make it short I love the size of the siny apsc, I've gotten a good grip on how to use them and produce good footage, I know really well how I want to color grade with it to get good colors, and it's a consumer friendly camera so there are going to be a lot of people looking for it which makes it nice for me to make videos about :) And because I've used it so much I feel comforable to talk and teach about it :) - And tbh all the freelance job I do I use the apsc and clients are always happy!

@bl5778 4 жыл бұрын
The 18-105 f4 is my first and only lens. I use it for both photography and videography. It’s very versatile, sharp enough and great for video. It also has OSS and a zoom lever. The build quality is fantastic and the rings are buttery smooth. Obviously, it isn’t as sharp as the sigma 16 f1.4 and not as great in low light. I’m looking to get the sigma as a second lens primarily for its low light capabilities. The sigma is the less expensive option. You wouldn’t go wrong with either.
@thaticelandicguy 4 жыл бұрын
Bill Lewis said it. It's super versatile - The 18-105 was my first lens, and tbh if you can only get one lens I would go for the 18-105 first. You'll have way more fun with it and can use it in more situations, and you're not stuck with just 16mm. But as a 2nd lens the Sigma 16mm is a fantastic choice! :)

For me 16mm and 56mm are my go to lenses. However for IG the 4x5 crop is too tight even for the 16mm so you need to think more about the crop too. Still plenty of bokeh and sharpness to be happy though! P.S. It's not stabilized yeah but with f 1.4 it would cost double and about the rattle noise i think you can get away with it if you mount the mic at the left with an L bracket or sth..

I shoot general stuff, from street (including people), city, nature, and so on. 16mm gives you "room" being so wide, but 56 gives a great perspective with awesome bokeh. Any recommendations?

I was having such a hard time deciding between the 16mm and 30mm 1.4 or the one sigma 18-35, and I just got the 18-35, and I HIGHLY RECOMMENDED if the weight is not too much of an issue, try it out, bc it is RAZOR SHARP!!! Sharpest Aps-c lens I’ve EVER put on my camera. I shoot on a canon m50, and there’s absolutely no focusing noise, I don’t know if that’s the same deal with Sony alpha series, but that full frame a7iii look that’s everyone wants can be achieved with this lens. Also the versatility of having like 5 different prime lenses at f/1.8 is VERY useful. Don’t get me wrong tho this 16mm prime is absolutely amazing, very sharp, but 18-35 is a tad sharper. I would say is your trying to do gimbal work DONT get the 18-35 unless you have the money for an Amazing gimbal, bc it makes the camera VERYYY front heavy.

@@thaticelandicguy thank you so much for replying! It would be mostly outdoors adventure stuff with very little talking head, so I guess the 10-18mm?

Do you also get a lot of autofocus noise when filming with the 16mm? I have it on my a6500 and the rode videomicro picks it all up and makes this useless. Very bummed cause I just got the lens.

Yea I talked about that in this video, it has noisy auto focus. I don't feel it that much because I love MF a lot, but it's there and it's a con with this lens.

Thanks...yes sorry just been really frustrated since I just got this lens and it makes the videomicro audio capture useless which I got to get footage of my 10 month old.

Can anyone suggest a good wide angle lens for Nikon F mount (aps-c)? That's affordable like the sigma 16mm.

debating between this and the 30mm!

The 30mm is more versatile. I have all 3. The 30mm is my favorite.

@Daniel & Icelandic Guy - OH I should add that if I could only choose ONE prime it would be the Sigma 30mm for its versatility. If I could choose TWO primes it would be the Sigmas 16mm and the 56mm because those two would give me a better variety. So it changes depending on how many lenses you have! If you’re spoiled like me then get all 3, lmao.

The Sigma 16mm is my to go lens for weddings, I love it!! How is your relationship with the focus ring of that lens? I always touch it while holding the camera, risking to defocus everything while filming ahahah

@@thaticelandicguy I use it 99% of the time for everything, but I really love it for wedding videos! With the digital zoom of Sony cameras, it's like a 24mm to 50mm and it's perfect as all around lens for videos.

Very interesting, I have sigma 30mm 1.4 and I want wide angle lens 16mm. Is these lenses have the same quality 🤔 and what nd do you use with this lens?))

I actually never tried the 30mm, so I'm not sure. But I love the quality of the sigma 16mm, and at that price point it's hard to beat. I think the Sony 10-18 is like 2-3x more expensive. I use freewell ND filters!

Was your auto focus always noisy or only since you dropped the lens 🤔? Just asking as mine actually seems very quiet on a Sony a6600 compared to other lenses I've used in the past. I tested it in this video if you want to compare it - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l7GAgJN-zN3PZn0.html . Anyway thanks for making the video, it's always nice to listen to what someone else's thoughts are on camera equipment. Hope you have a great day, greetings all the way from Australia 🇦🇺!
