Thank you for the side by side comparison between the new DG DN lens and the older DG HSM lens. Since there are multiple advantages to the new lens, will Sigma be offering it with the Canon and Nikon mounts to replace the HSM version?
@TomCalton3 жыл бұрын
Not that I'm aware. At the moment the DG DN line is just for mirrorless cameras and they only offer them in Sony E-Mount and Leica L Mount. They may branch out to Canon and Nikon mirrorless cameras in the future, but who knows if/when that will happen.

To be honest, the lens is front heavy even on my A7III, so I mainly used it with a monopod attached. And if you're going to do that then it doesn't really matter how big or small your camera is as the centre of balance is shifted to the lens collar.
@michap.20452 жыл бұрын

Hello Tom, thanks it is a superB conclusion. I would like to film motocross, and i am searching for the most suitable lens for my a7s3 body. My question would be, mostly which range did you use? 70-200not enough? What do you think? Based on your experiences with 150-600. Thanks. Peter
@TomCalton2 жыл бұрын
Hey Peter. It's true, I did find myself using the shorter end of the zoom range on this shoot, however, I was lucky enough to be able to get close to the track, so a superzoom wasn't strictly needed. If you're not able to get this close then having the reach of 600mm would be a God send. I shot a football match the week after and I was pretty much glued to the 600mm end because I couldn't get close to the action. I hope this helps!

@gmeardi3 жыл бұрын
Excellent review. Now expecting the upcoming comparison w/200-600. While having already looked at someone else’s, I think two major points for the Sigma - at least for me - would be the increased portability (5-6cm are a good bonus) and the lower price (appx 400-500 euros less in Italy), while enjoying some added features like the included arca swiss mount, “pump zoom” and accessories. Using it even for astro (moon and would try DSO), it would be interesting to know if the lack (?) of teleconverter compatibility (1.4-2x) would affect a lot the result - or any trick would exist to use the L-mount tc’s (or Sigma will find an agreement with Sony). I’m currently using an A7r3 (with potential future upgrade to the r5 as a second camera… for my wife, as I’m not a pro).

Thanks bud 👍 I probably won't include the old Sigma in the next test, purely because it's not a native Sony E-Mount lens. It was relevant in this video because it's what the new lens is replacing, so it's interesting to see whether it's truly an upgrade or not. I hope that makes sense!

I'm seeing some conflicting report online about this lens. Some say it's sharper than the Tamron, some says the Tamron is sharper. Some say it's not that sharp on the long end, some say the autofocuse isn't that consistant when tracking high speed activity, I really hope it's just some early sample issue, not the sample variation that Sigma is known for.
