About Sigma & Samyang Lenses! These are GREAT options but due to the interest of time, I wasn't able to include them all in this round! However check out my separate reviews on them below! I've also updated the slides to include the Sigma Lenses for those who are interested! Thanks for watching! 😁
Sigma Art 24-70 f/2.8 Review: ua-cam.com/video/q84vrtCbm5g/v-deo.html
Samyang 85mm f/1.4 Review: ua-cam.com/video/HovTAy56cK0/v-deo.html
Thanks, I’m really interested in some of these new Samyangs they seem really well paired with the a7c
Do you have a budget lens video (under $600)?
How about samyang 35 f1.4 vs sony fe 35 f1.8?
Then you can't call this a buying guide.
@@ShawnDancy01 ?
Lots of great info! Thanks friend!
Love what you do Jason! Very helpful info.
Thanks for the tips
man, i appreciate your work so much! one of the few reviewers that keep it real to the subject and doesnt waste time on providing us such good information in such an efficient and organised way. its always a pleasure to watch your reviews
Thank you!
I switched to Sony recently. Thank you so much for this well explained, precise, simple and complete review. Comparaison pictures are so helpful. You just save me HOURS of research. Good Job!:)
Bro so good to see you back regularly now. We need the in-depth detailed reviews and explanation of why one should or should not purchase a certain lens or certain body. Your videos are important, helpful, clears the fog and lowers the stress - thanks 🙏🏽
Having watched the previous sony full frame lens buying guide at least 6-7 times, I'm stoked you uploaded a new one!
Everything I needed to know all in one video
Chuc mung nam moi
For someone who's jumping from Nikon to sony... I honestly watched the whole video and again and again.. 😁
Great Great information and very well laid out.. 🙌🏻🙌🏻. #subscribed 👍
I’m so glad you made a new guide! I appreciate you Jason.
Hell Yes Dude! I was hoping for a video like this and u came thru. So glad you are back, dude this is your jam.
That 90 macro does well as a stand-in for 85. You can set it for full range focusing with a switch. It stops being a macro and just becomes a really nice 90mm prime.
Whenever I think of something JV post that...as if he has a telepathic capabilities to know the mind of his subscribers 😄
Always appreciate your insights. Your videos have a good balance of information, length and even humor. I’ve learned a great deal from you over the years, thank you so much. Keep them coming.
So much value in one video! Great work Jason🙌
Hi Jason, what's your opinion on Tamron 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6 lens?
Missed out Sigma 85mm f1.4 art in the video. Would love to hear from Jason about how it compares with the rest
Took a couple of days but finally finished watching it. Great guide! I appreciate the extra time explaining the tiny details and your experience with the lenses
Wow... Amazing stuff Jason! Soo much effort for one video, much appreciated👏
Made some fresh pop corn, got my amazon wish list ready. Now need someone to spoil me.
You crushed it Vong. The only lens I would add is the Sigma 24-70mm f2.8. Might be the closest to the Sony GM and at half the price.
Appreciate the feedback! I'm updating the slides now to include them! I've only used their newest 24-70mm and haven't gotten a chance to review their latest releases yet! My 2022 video will include them for sure! For now, check out my Sigma 24-70mm review separately! :) ua-cam.com/video/q84vrtCbm5g/v-deo.html
Thanks! Your comprehensive dive is exactly what I needed. I'm very new to photography so I'll probably have to watch your video (and others) a few times to soak it all in. I really enjoyed your pacing, segmentation, and summaries! You rock!
Great video! So helpful, I’m weighing out options for a wide angle. Love your channel! A fan from Japan
What about the Sigma? 14-24 2.8?
Right when I ordered the a7siii coming from a6400 and deciding on lenses 🤩🤩 Thanks Jason!
glad this came in time!
@@JasonVong Well. It's 3am here Melbourne, AUS - felt like right timing but has kept me up longer!! You did a Great Breakdown through them too!
16-35 f2.8 and 85 f1.8 seems like what ill be getting! (Real Estate Production) 😍😍
Thanks for your dedication and effort
Check out the Zeiss loxia lenses for video
@@Xtrahaze Dude I highly recommend the 20 1.8 for real estate. The hyper focal distance will make night shots INCREDIBLE
@@robmcd 😍😍 that sounds great!
What's your setup? I always rocked the 15mm equiv and even seeing tamroms 17 in some senarios being too tight.
Though since the a7siii is on a wait (feb 2021 at least 😱😱) I might try the laowa 9mm f2.8 on the a6400 and then consider the 10-18mm laowa for FF for those wide ones - I saw a clip on another one of Jasons videos and realised "damnnnnn" it looked insane - but its damn wide
extremely helpful! I love your light-hearted yet no-nonsense style that's clearly grounded in a lot of experience
Very helpful in understanding lenses and uses.. Man you nailed it..💥
Sigma 100-400mm F5-6.3 DG DN will be nice for the telephoto reach too for the budget users
What about the sigma 24-70 f 2.8 art im extremely happy with mine
the best lens comparison video out there. Made my choices super super clear. Thankyou Jason! Keep creating great content!!
Hey Jason, thank you for the great video once again! I really enjoy your channel and have learned so much from your content! Keep up the great work!
Great video! , do the apsc model too please 🙏🏻
By far the most detailed lens review ever! Thanks Jason!
Finally, clearly presented information about the lenses. This is what I was looking for. Many thanks Jason!
24gm. The greatest lens. Ever created. For any system.
Agreed
just bought the 24mm GM im very happy with it 😍
2nd favourite lens, after the Batis 40mm
Wow just bought a damn 24 due to this comment, turns out it failed to do portrait shootings for this baby, smh baby's face came out extra distorted. NO IT DOES NOT WORK FOR FOR EVERY SYSTEM!!! STOP THROWING WORDS AROUND!!!!!
@@Slicktune what did you even just write lol.
Sigma 14-24mm 2.8 DG DN - "am I a joke to you bro?"
Your timing is impeccable, Jason! Was literally shopping around with all these sales going on! Thank you :D
glad this came in time!
Thanks for this Jason! I recognize one of my friends in your wedding shots. I purchased the Sony FE 85mm f/1.8 lens before this video came out, really happy with your comments cause it cements and justifies a good purchase! I tested the 85mm lens on another Sony camera, but waiting for the Sony A7c to arrive now. Can't wait!
This was great! Can you do one for Canon full frame? 🤩🤩🤩
Please
I think Jason reviews only Sony systems.
You need for find someone that uses a Canon system. Why would someone with a Sony camera buy Canon lenses? Doesn't make sense
Where was the Zeiss Batis 40mm? I’m considering this as my mid-prime for the close focus ability
Was considering the same for a mid prime with close strength. I wonder if it's fallen out of favor
@@brentkimball8866 it is the most recent lens of the Batis line, but there has been so many other options since, including the favoured Sony 35mm 1.8. I just got the Tamron 70-180 yesterday instead of a macro lens. At 70mm you can get insanely close to a subject. Like, the lens is almost touching it. That’s another consideration if you want close focus
Incredible review, Jason. Thank you. Very helpful to prospective buyer. And your sample shots? Wow... just wow.
Nice work Jason!
why not to pick midrange zoom lens for sigma art 24-70 just curios to know
Appreciate the feedback! I'm updating the slides now to include them! I've only used their newest 24-70mm and haven't gotten a chance to review their latest releases yet! My 2022 video will include them for sure! For now, check out my Sigma 24-70mm review separately! :) ua-cam.com/video/q84vrtCbm5g/v-deo.html
@@JasonVong I've seen a lot of people sleep on the Sigma 24-70 but I figured it was because it launched right before the pandemic and a lot of people haven't gotten extensive use out of it yet.
Editorializing by omission without Samyang or Sigma being represented.
My goodness... such a thorough review! Love your channel and your content.
I just picked up a new A7Siii and was looking for new lenses. Thank you so much! Very informative!!!
As helpful as this video is, it still feels incomplete without any mention of Sigma or Samyang's newer lenses. Till next year
yeah really missing out on some fantastic budget lenses
It's kinda difficult to view this video as objective or unbiased when the list basically ignores the existence of Sigma as an option. Not only for the price, but for the often on-par if not superior performance of the brand at an often lower price. It just seems super odd and motivated to not have included a single offering from Sigma.
Agreed! Maybe other brands paid him (more) for sponsorship
That was an awesome vide Jason! Thanks so much man
jason, as always you have out done yourself. Thank you for this review because I'm in the market for new class and this review is helping narrow things down. Keep it up!
What about the sigma 14-24 and 24-70?
Unfortunately there are just way too many lenses for me to cover lol but I did do a review on the Sigma 24-70! ua-cam.com/video/q84vrtCbm5g/v-deo.html
My guess is Tamron is very aggressive in supporting these channels to promote their glass. From the lenses I've looked into the Sigmas are on par with GM for about half the price.
@@JasonVong The Sigma addition would’ve been great. Even replacing Tamron or the Sony F4 versions.
A little bummed the sigma 24-70 2.8 wasn't included. Great video otherwise! Been going back and forth between that and the GM. With edu discount gm is only 1600. I think that might be worth it.
Appreciate the feedback! I'm updating the slides now to include them! I've only used their newest 24-70mm and haven't gotten a chance to review their latest releases yet! My 2022 video will include them for sure! For now, check out my Sigma 24-70mm review separately! :) ua-cam.com/video/q84vrtCbm5g/v-deo.html
Watch Gerald Undone comparison with the sigma 24-70 before buying it
@@RiccardoGabarriniKazeatari yeah I did and ended up borrowing the sigma 24-70 from a friend and didn't like it. Try it out if you can before you buy because reviews aren't everything
I use the sigma 24-70 2.8 with a Sony a7r3 and I love it. Just my humble opinion
@@phonsdaaries awesome I'm glad you like it! I think it's a great lens it just wasn't for me especially since I do a lot of video work. Great thing is that there's a ton of lens options for Sony e mount!
Excellent comparison video, Jason! Thanks so much for your recommendations. You do great photo work, by the way!
Awesome video again Jason! Thanks for all you do!
What happened to all the Sigma "DN" collection bro?
Appreciate the feedback! I'm updating the slides now to include them! I've only used their newest 24-70mm and haven't gotten a chance to review their latest releases yet! My 2022 video will include them for sure! For now, check out my Sigma 24-70mm review separately! :) ua-cam.com/video/q84vrtCbm5g/v-deo.html
Yes Jason, love you, but you blew it here by missing all the great Sigma DG DN lens which outperform even some GM lenses at less costs. See my comment and link above
@@6gwilliams You have a point. My new sigma 85mm DN easly outperforms 85 GM in every way
@@umitpala2361 brooooo !!!
The "DN" ART versions in Sigma (14-24mm f/2.8, 24-70mm f/2.8, 85mm f/1.4, 105mm f/2.8 macro, 100-400mm f/5-6.3) are the sharpest, optically accurate lenses out there. And these perform similar and in some cases even better than the G master lenses. Not to mention the HSM ART lenses after constant updates. And how can someone not mention the world's first 35mm f/1.2 lens?
Jason love you, but you knew this was coming buddy. You totally ignore the amazing new Sigma lenses in E-mount that have been tested and outperform Sony GM lenses at less cost. The Sigma Art 24-70mm f2.8 DG DN has overall bested the nearly five year old 24-70mm f2.8 GM in all tests for less money. I could afford to buy this GM but choose the better Sigma 24-70mm f2.8 DG DN. The Sigma Art 85mm f1.4 DG DN bests the old 85mm f1.4 GM in all head-to head tests and is the best 85mm on the market for Sony. I sold my 85mm GM and it fully paid for the better Sigma. You favor the Batis lenses like the 135mm f2.8 over the 135mm f1.8 GM. Come on Jason, that 135mm f1.8 GM blows away the Batis and is the sharpest lens ever tested by Lens Rentals. Yes I know you have a Batis lens addiction. The Sony 100-400mm is NOT the sharpest Sony lens. And you ignore the Sigma 100-400mm. Also the new Sigma Art 105mm f2,8 Macro is sharper than the Sony 90mm f2.8 Macro at less costs also. No reviewer will get it always right, all the time. Usually I am right there with you on most things, but you are missing a lot here. Check out the tests of 114 Fullframe E-mount lens, tested for sharpness by SAB. Yes there are more things to picking a lens than just sharpness, like color, contrast, bokeh, focus, weight, size, price, build quality. But this list is a good comparison. BTW I am an award-winning pro of over 44 years in the business who has owned and used the best cameras and dozens of lenses from Leica, Nikon, Canon and Sony. I have owned the Sony A7RII, A7RIII, A7III and now own the A9, A7RIV and A7SIII. I own 13 E-mount lenses from Sony, Sigma, and Tamron. I choose the best lenses that I need, and sometimes that is not a Sony lens. I own five GM lenses now, but not all GM lenses are created equal. Cheers, still love you man. SAB article with test charts for over 114 E-mount lenses, updated to include recent lens releases. ; sonyalpha.blog/2019/11/10/which-lenses-to-maximise-the-potential-of-the-sony-a7riv/
Thank you for your lens opinions here Gerald. Not to mention the incredible link you shared. Amazing in depth test! Never seen so many lenses tested and documented 🤯
@@gavinmaloney6773 you are most welcome
Just picked up my 16-35mm GM, and OMG I love this lens... been watching a lot of your videos to get the ideas of what lens would fit me. Thank you so much for all the recommendations and the photographer tips videos.
Great infos, Jason. The community thanks you.
What's the point of a "best lenses" review that ignores many of the most popular and best performing lenses available for e-mount?
Many it’s just too many of them , so he pick his favorite personally .
@@KTtv1991 Should be called the "2021 Sony overpriced and sometimes underperforming lens buying guide" then. Sony makes some great lenses but quite a few of them are matched or beaten by Sigma or Tamron lenses costing less than half as much.
Instead of begging for likes every 5 minutes, you should have included Sigma lenses here mate.
Very informational! The information on the lens was exactly what I was needing! Thank you!
so much knowledge all in one video. Not just sony centric either, even just focal length basics are covered. Great video!!!
Thanks Jason, bringing this on time, Great video...
Been watching your videos everyday. Very good info and very entertaining
Great video man!!! Upgrading to a full frame soon so this is right on time!
Love what you do Jason. Thank you so much for providing this valuable information.
Great video, Jason! We went with your suggestions and clicked on your links. Your guidance has been very helpful!
Thanks Jason for the very nice and quick overview! Hope you and Viv have a great and safe Thanksgiving
Great video! Thanks Jason.
such a helpful breakdown! I really liked that format and it helped me narrow down my lens options. Thank you
loving your content! its literally everything I want to know!
This was a great overview!! And very easy to follow, with helpful and tidy summary pages. I would have loved to see some of the newer Sigma glass in there, but I already know where it falls since I’ve been doing my research 😋 Great job, this comparison was best-in-class!
You smashed this video! I’ve been looking for a video like this and now I know what lens to purchase for my new Sony full frame! Thank you!
So thorough! Love it!
Thnx for the info ❤️... it's great job Jason
The previous video was my guide for buying my first lenses, thank you so much for this type of work. It helps a lot
Best lens video on UA-cam, thanks for the great content 🙌🏼

jason , again awesome video you did! thanks a lot.
Thank you so much Jason for the thorough review of all the different lenses out there. I'm looking to switch from Canon to Sony and I'm looking to get the a7c and you came up as one of the best results and no doubt every video has a lot of useful content. Thanks again!
incredibly helpful bro, so clearly explained! Loved it, good job dude
