![Sigma 16mm 1.4 Review [Sony e mount] - Is it too good to be true?](/img/n.gif)
*What is your favorite focal length to shoot at and why?* 30mm has quickly become my favorite lately because it just looks so natural!
50mm. You can capture pretty much anything.
The good old nifty fifty!
I’m loving the Sigma 16mm 1.4... I decided buy it after watch your video about this lens...I love it because i was looking for a lens more wide, for landscape and to try new angles for portrait
Rodrigo - that’s awesome! I definitely love that lens too and I’m glad my video inspired you to buy it!
Haha I love my 50mm too, but on the crop sensor I find myself going to the 30 more lately. Glad I’m influencing you 😉
just bought my first camera; sony a6000 with the sigma 30mm 1.4. Thanks to your video. you cost me money
HAHAHAHAHA 😂 I’m so sorry! I hope you have a ton of fun with it to make up for the money you spent! 😉😉👍🙌
It’s great!
No you do not, just make sure you get the Sony e mount version and you’re good (provided you have a Sony e mount camera)
OH NO! I’m so sorry to hear that.
Exactly what I'm planning! How have you liked the setup?
I have this lens and I must say that I’m in love with it! I actually find myself using it more than the sigma 16mm 1.4 because of that “natural eye” perspective. I agree it’s great for portraits on aps-c :)
That’s awesome Joey! Great minds think alike!
Ive been shooting with this lens for 18 months now on the a6300 and It's great. I can't add anything to what you already said, other than it's just great for so many types of photography. Great video man 👍🏼
Thanks a ton Neil glad you’re loving it!
The RAW/EDITED shots are just some of the best I've ever seen as part of YT footage, so nicely done. If there was ever an advert for RAW, this is it. Great videos!
Mate you're channel is so underrated. One of the best Sony photography channels I have come through. Great job mate . Keep it up .
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
Just watched this and your 16mm review and both were amazing! Keep up the good work man, you just earned yourself a subscriber!
Thank you so much Matthew! Glad you enjoyed them!
Great video man! I'm picking up a sigma art 35mm 1.4 this weekend and I am stoked!
Oooh damn dude! That’s gonna be sick!
This lens is amazing. I picked this thing up a few months ago. I use this lens for music videos, love the image it gives off!
Oh man, agreed 100% I shot a music video with this last week and it’s looking incredible.
Thanks for answering a question I had about it lol I’m a music artist looking for a great lens to shoot with. This comment & video helped me make my decision, thanks! 🙏🏽
I really like the unedited/edited versions of your examples. With all other reviewers you can never tell if the shot that they're showing you is edited or not
Thanks for letting me know
Fantastic review. Answered all the questions I had. Going to get one for my A6600.
I bought this Sigma lens today and I'm sold to this lens. So natural, so pure, beautiful portraits and street photos. Love it!!
Just bought this after my previous 50mm Nikon Lens as well as one I could change automatically to different sizes and it looks fantastic 📷
That's awesome! I'm glad you're loving it!
Always enjoy your videos Dunna! I don't shoot with any Sony gear, but you still Rock!!! Be well, stay encouraged, and Encouraging!
Thanks Jacob! I really appreciate that you come check it out even though it’s not your camera system!
Your style of production is always Professionally Dun-na (pun intended), and I learn a lot overall watching your channel, so keep producing videos. Can't wait to see you hit 100K Subs!!!
Haha the puns are always welcomed! Thank again Jacob, you’re too kind!
Just bought it as an update for the kit lens. Thanks for sharing this.
Great Video thanks... I wonder do you have to place it far off the subject if you are on cropped sensor? 50mm on my Canon 70d needs so much space... I am thinking to go to the Sony route for my cam gear..
It will be less so than your 50mm by quite a bit but it’s still not a wide angle lens by any means.
I love this lens. Found it barely used for like $120 at my local camera shop and have been shooting almost exclusively with it since then. It's great for portraits, street, landscapes, you name it. This and the Sony 55-200 are all I carry in my pack most days. As soon as I can lock down a cheap Sigma 16mm I'll have a near perfect 3 lens kit for daily use.
That’s awesome! Sounds like an awesome kit! And what a deal!!
Interesting - had never considered this lens but you are changing my mind!
That’s great to hear! It’s a fantastic lens!
Another good stuff again! I have this lens and been playing around it with my a6000 and i had great results! Great review! 👌
Thanks so much Carl!!
This answered all of my questions perfectly!! I have the sigma 16mm 1.4 and love it but I want something better for portraits. Adding this to my wish list!
That’s so great to hear Tess! Thanks so much for watching!
Totally agree with you Tess! The 16mm worked like a charm at the museum but I feel the 30mm 1.4 is better for portraits... Where are you gonna buy it?
I have this Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC DN on a Olympus PEN camera Micro 4/3 and it's amazing. It gives the sharpest quality I've seen in a lens on this price range, great low-light quality also. The 1.4 aperture gives the most amazing bokeh! Go for it.
Good to know people love it on MFT too!
Yes of course I wanna be friends and yes it is definitely for me! It will be my upgrade from my kit lens. Thanks a lot, just what I was looking for.
That’s so great to hear!!! Thanks for watching!
I got the lens and I love it, I also think your channel is spot on! Great stuff!
That’s awesome David! And thank you so much! Glad to have you join the community!
I love you man. In a clearly professional sense. Your vids are so helpful.
Thanks so much!!
Really great and helpful video, but you could show some more unstabelised shots (for example close ups from an Object)
Thanks for the input!
thanks for the video! I bought it before I found your video btw. so far I made a couple videos using the 30 1.4 and it is truly impressive. at f 1.4 it makes wonderful footages. I use 6300. comparing to the sony 55 1.8 I usually use for my videos I like this one more!
That’s awesome! So glad you agree that this lens is a beast!
Nice review! I'm happy with the three little sigmas I have (19, 30, 60 2.8), but for some situations, especially at night, I really need something faster. The Canon/Nikon version of this lense is amazing, really considering this one for my a6000. Your review helps a lot, and came out with perfect timing for me. Great job again, thanks!
That’s great! I’m glad it was helpful. I’ve have both the 30 and 19 2.8 before and they were definitely good lenses. The nice things about this is the f1.4 for low light like you mentioned. And the autofocus covers the whole af area instead of just the center.
Such an amazing lens, I've had mine for close to 5 years now (it was the first lens I bought for my a6k back in 2018).
Thank you for the info and examples!! Just bought the 30mm!!
That’s exciting!!
Just got my a6500 today! I got the body by itself & the Sigma 30mm f1.4 with it, I also ordered the Sigma 16mm 1.4 on amazon earlier in week & it's already arrived. So stoked! This will be my 1st camera I've ever owned.
That’s so awesome Andres! You’re gonna love them all!
Was it nice?
Recently bought a6400 with kit lens and tomorrow i am going to buy this super aperture beast... Thanks for best review of this lens out there
Nice!! You’re gonna love it!!
Being a new Sony aps-c shooter, scouring the web for what lenses to use and reviews is driving me nuts. It came down to this and the Sony 85mm 1.8. Lots of people discouraged me from this lens mainly because of the distortion blah blah etc since I do portraiture. But after reading some articles and watching this very detailed video of yours... I'd say, Dunna Did It. Thank you. I am getting this lens along with the 16mm f/1.4. More power to you and your photography/videography.
That’s so awesome! I’m glad I helped out making your decision! It really is an awesome lens!!
nice review - cheers dude, this lens is on my list for some point after I get the a6500 :)
Thanks so much! Let me know what you think of it once you get it!
It's a great camera, so good luck with it!
Thank so much, I use a6500 so I am going to buy this lens :D. Love your work to share
Thanks!!
Just found one used around my area for a cheaper price and this video really helped ease my mind about some of the bad things I heard about the lens. Thanks for all the helpful info and if things dont work out there I'll be sure to use yur amazon link 👌🏽
THATS AWESOME! I love buying used if I can! Let me know how you like it, and thank you for the support I'm glad you got some value from the video!
Thank you so much!! This was really helpful, keep up making videos like these!
Yay I’m glad it helped you out! I definitely will!
This is the lens that stays on my a6000 90% of the time. It’s a phenomenal fast standard prime due to its versatility and incredible sharpness plus extremely wide open aperture, making it an absolute joy at any lighting condition.
This one especially excels closer up with that shallow DoF and great sharpness. As I love closeup photography, the lens was very well worth the purchase.
Next up? Probably the SELP18105 or the SEL18135. The former costs less over here but I prefer the size of the latter alongside its increased reach. The fact that general optical performance between the 2 is so close, it’s almost negligible makes it even harder to choose. Was also thinking of the Rokinon 12mm since when I borrowed it from a friend, it was fantastic but he’s since sold it and I also wanted something more versatile to replace my kit lens.
Absolutely! It’s a tough call between the 18105 and the 18135. I love my 18105 though for its constant f4 and the internal zooming. But I think you’re pretty safe with either!
@@dunnadidit Both ought to be pretty darn good zoom lenses especially for their price range.
I especially like the constant aperture on the 18105 but the smaller overall size plus wider range of focal lengths on the 18135 is mighty tempting, especially since I don't really do videos.
Yeah, if you don’t shoot video then it’s an even harder choice. For video work the 18-105 is a more obvious choice.
Yep. Good thing that I'm in no rush to get 'em, so that should leave plenty of time to think about them.
That’s a great thing! Having the time to think about it will save 90% of the headaches that could come from rushing into it.
This is my only lens besides the 16-50 mm kit lens on my a6000. I never take it off, its just amazing.
Totally!
Great video and like your presentation style. I have 6000 and a bunch of lenses yet still trying to take the time to learn the camera. Appreciate your video, learning as I watch.
Thanks so much Jim! I really appreciate it! Let me know if you have anything you want me to cover in a video!
Just ordered one. Then saw your video. Confirmation that I made the right choice. Great review. Thank you.
Nice! Congrats Tom! You're going to love it!
You're like the B-roll Peter McKinnon. And by that i mean: more informative, more direct, less gimmicky and less actor than your fellow canadian. Keep up with the good work! Cheers
Thanks for the kind words! Glad you dig my style!
That was my thought exactly, 60 seconds into this video. New sub here!
@@AriannaSantiago12 Agreed. Peter's.....too much sometimes. The obnoxious mouth sound effects, coffee jerk off sessions, over the top enthusiasm....no thanks. Great review, Dunna!
very informative, i like it.
Loved the review. It covered all the points. I'm getting one. Thanks.
This video literally answered all my questions!! Thank you so much 🙌🙌🙌
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Thinking for setup a6500 sigma 16mm and sigma 30 . Was thinking about the Zeiss 16 70 but with versatility and low light capability of the sigma it's the better option especially for my nightclubs. Still close for group photos and still wide enough for capturing the club. Plus it's nice and compact. No more mouse worry having to bump up my iso
Yeah as long as you’re ok with switching lenses here and there I think you have the right idea!
I just bought this lens again today. I traded it for the Sony 18-105 a couple months ago. I kept the 18-105 for like 3 months and then I sold it recently. I missed the Sigma 30mm sooooo much!
Haha! Those two lenses are the ones that live on my camera the most. I’m really happy to have both cause I think I would keep going back and forth buying and selling like you haha!
Gonna buy a6500 or forthcoming a6700 but don’t know what lens to choose for it. Sony 18-105, Sigma 30 (plus one wide angle lens) or Sigma 16-35 with MC-11 adapter. So hard to decide 🤔 Need for video and street photography mostly
I always say that I would still prefer to have a good zoom lens first. Then start going in on primes. My 18-105 gets used the most still and then probably the 30 next.
I have A6500 for a year and a half now. My first lens is Zeiss 16-70. Second lens is Sony Macro 30mm, got Sony 18-105, and then I bought Sigma 16mm and pair of Manual lenses from Kamlan.
The problem is that I am totally newbie, learn only from youtube videos, and still looking for what I want to be and what kind of genre I will master to shoot. That`s why then I started to simplify my lenses collection by selling the Sigma 16mm and my macro lens.
Now I am planning to buy 30mm sigma f1.4 and sell my 18-105. What do you think?
I think it sounds like you have a solid hold on the direction you’re headed. Unfortunately, in my experience, the only way to really know what you need is to do what you’re doing. Buy some, try em out, sell some of em and buy other ones and repeat!
This was really helpful, thanks for making this video.
My pleasure!! Thanks for watching!
Hi Dunna, thx for your videos. Really cool to watch and you go straight to the points ;) I bough 2 months ago an A6500 with a 18-105 kit lens. I switch to the 16mm of Sigma and dam*** it is an amazing lens for many situations as you said ! Thanks for your review that helped me on this choice ! :)
Thanks so much Alexandre! I'm glad my videos were helpful for you!
For the price of the Sony 35mm you can get this one and a gimbal
Daaaamn!
you cracked the code!
Impeccable timing on this video, I'm trying to choose between the 16mm and 30mm as my first prime lens for my a6000 as we speak :) Im just starting out on my photography journey and as such i don't know my preferred shooting type as yet. So im looking for a lens which is versatile will increase the quality of my photos doesn't break the bank. It sounds like the 30mm may be the way to go...Great video :)
I love when that happens! I think it sounds like the 30mm might be perfect! Glad my video was helpful! Let me know if you have any questions!
Hi, Simon! I am going to buy an a6000 this week but still confused between the Sigma 16mm and 30mm!
30mm is more versatile as the first prime lens, it can shoot anything from landscape to portrait, 16mm is good for landscape only ;)
definitely going to buy it tomorrow, thanks a lot
I plan to have this for photography and cinematography. This works? Great stuff btw keep it up!!!!
Get them both!
This is the kind of review I love you didn't spend the whole time telling us this was a poor man's lens you just let us know it's worth it everybody else seems to bash any lense that doesn't cost 1000 or more it's crazy
Even though they say, "oh a lens doesn't make great pictures. It's the photographer." OK, then stop buying those damn expensive lenses and stick with the cheap ones since you're so good! Haha
@@KoraLynne lol right haha
This lens and the 16mm f1.4 are the only lenses I have and the only lenses I need for my type of video work. Excellent lens and review man ;)
They are pretty wonderful aren’t they! Thanks for watching!
I just got my lense in for my stream and it is amazing. I also, I went around and took videos and pic and I love it! Thank you for the vid.
Question(s) . . . I know you don't have one to compare too . . . but in your opinion, does is it make sense to go with the Sigma vs the Sony 35 w/ oss for hand held stills using a 6500? Does the IBIS on the 6500 compensate enough for lack of stabilization on the Sigma? Also do you feel the 'auto-focus' is really on par with native Sony lenses ? . . . or would I be compromising by having an un-stabilized with lesser autofocus, in the name of 'sharpness' & image quality . . . essentially canceling out the 'pros' of the Sigma ? Kind of a rhetorical question . . . but hope you understand my meaning behind it. Great info and thank you for taking the time to review.
I definitely understand your concerns. Let me reassure you, the a6500 + sigma 30mm is a fantastic combo! The ibis does a fantastic job and I notice very little difference between when I just have ibis and when I have ibis+oss. And yes, the autofocus is fantastic with the native Sony sigma stuff now 😁 I have heard the 35 is great too but I LOVE my 30mm on my a6500
Amazing review. I am planning to buy one. Is it good for wedding photography??
It would definitely be a good addition to the kit!
Very tempted to get this for my a6400 - thanks for the great video!
My pleasure!
Yeah! Finally you released this vid! Thanks Dunna! Guess I’ve made up my mind. Gonna get this for my portraits.
Haha I’m sorry it took so long! Glad it helped you make up your mind! Feel free to use the link in the description if you want to help me out a bit too 😉 HAPPY SHOOTING!
Dunna Did It No worries bro! Truly appreciate it!
Cheers dude!
Damn dude I'm working on a "year and a half on with this lens" review but you've covered most of it 😅
Haha sorry I beat you to it 😉 lots of room on the internet for both of us though!
so my friend recommended this lens for me then i had to search it realizing you also live here in Edmonton WOW
You know it! YEG represent!
Great video! I love this lense! I have this, the sigma 16mm, and plan on getting the FE 85mm very soon
Nice! I’ve always wanted to try out the 85. I just can’t figure out how often I would actually use it.
I'm also willing to buy this lens. Thanks man. Great video. 👍
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Lovely video! I just have 1 question:
I can afford 1 lens only. Either the 16mm or the 30mm.
I will use my camera for portraits, family functions and a few holiday destination landscape shots.
My main concern is that while taking portraits I want the best bokeh and my subject should stand out pretty well from the background.
I know I can capture portraits with both lenses but I just want to know which lens will give me the perfect natural looking shots with awesome bokeh. That is my main deciding factor.
What's the best best lens then? 16 or 35? No compromise on portraits.
If portraits are the main concern, go for the 30mm!
@@dunnadidit thanks a lot for clearing up the confusion. Your videos are very helpful and the small jokes also feel good. I subscribed too :)
My pleasure! I’m really glad you enjoy my content!!
Does video is stabilized on gimble if we r using alpha 6400 with sigma 35mm 1.4
If your using a gimbal the footage should be nice and smooth!
Love the way you show edited and unedited pictures
Thanks!!
I love my Sigma trio, but I also still keep my Sony 35mm & 50MM with me. It's fun having the choices for each of my trip.
Thats awesome!
I think the most accurate to human eye focal length is 42mm(ish). So that makes this Lense actually even closer to human eyesight than a 50mm. On top of that, I've heard 40mm is the most popular focal length in Hollywood. Though I haven't fact checked either of these, so take them with a grain of salt. Great review as well, I like how you include a section for working around the downfalls of a Lense, it's a great addition to a review and I'm not sure why you're the only one who includes it.
That is really interesting (consider it taken with a grain of salt, but still really fascinating!)
Thank you for the compliment on my format, It really means a lot that you would point that out! Makes me feel like I’m doing something right for sure! Cheers!
Human Eye Focal Length is wider than 10mm. Its the focus point thats small on human eyes.
The human eye field of view is quite wide, yes, but the reason people talk about 50mm(ish) being similar to the way we see things has to do with the compression artifacts of lenses. Obviously we have periferal vision and our cameras don't so we're going to have quite a while fov but if you take a 10mm lens and take a photo of someone, it doesn't look the same as how we see them, the back of their head will seem super far back from the front of their head compared to real life... I hope I'm making sense lol
Hey does anyone know if this lens suppose to zoom in and out. Just received mine and I cant zoom in or out with it. Not sure if thats how it is or is broken?
It doesn’t zoom. This type of lens is called a prime lens. Just one focal distance. Lenses that are zoom lenses will have two numbers. For example 16-55mm. This one is just 30mm
Dunna Did It thanks a lot mate
Getting inspired by your video, I bought my first camera which is Sony a6000 crop along with the sigma 300mm f1.4 lens.. Its working beautifully..
Get them both is the answer!! My problem is that I'm shooting with an a6300 so no stabilization at all for me. I really need to grab an A6500 for now until I make my big upgrade so I can have some sort of stabilization. Awesome video as always 👍
I totally agree Jo! If it makes sense for people they should totally get both! Still great lenses for the 6300, you just need to be a bit more careful about stabilization.
Thanks for watching!
Is this good for a5100 ?
Absolutely!
This or 18-105mm OSS G lens? I sold my kit lens and have enough budget for one of them..
I'd go 18-105 first.
I have 18-105mm OSS G Lens and Sigma 30mm f1.4. If you don't need stabilazed lens with power zoom 100% must go for Sigma 30mm f1.4! The 18-105mm f4 OSS G Lens is fantastic too but if you don't shoot in low light!
I'm going to buy it thanks to this video! Subscribed!
Glad I could help make your decision Lupe! Cheers!
Thinking of this one or the Sony 28mm 2.2. Great review on this sigma. I like that it's not too big so it's an easy travel lens
Thanks so much, I’ve never used the 28mm but I know a few people who like it. I love how small and light the 30mm is.
I don't know why I even watch this. Got this lens over a year ago and its on my a6000 95% of the time. Also got an 12mm Rokinon and the 18-105.
Must have something to do with my charm and charisma 😂😂😁
That’s a great lens kit you have! Swap out your rokinon with the sigma 16mm and that’s pretty much my same kit.
Oh it surely is your charm. :P
I'd love to have the Sigma 16mm, but I got the Rokinon way back, when the 16 wasn't on the market yet.
Thinking about adding the 85 1.8 for the portraits. hmm
Haha! 😉👍
Yeah that makes sense. Even when the 16mm was on the market it sold out so fast for the first little while that it kept being on backorder.
An 85 would be really cool for portraits. Even the 18-105 zoomed into around 85 is great. The bokeh you can get even at f4 is quite impressive! I can only imagine what f1.8 would be like at that length.
KirbyGoezPink I was thinking about getting the 12mm rokinon, any good?
Dunna, do you think it's better Sony a7ii or Sony A6500. I am confused. Sorry for my english, im indonesian
I am a beginner, trying photopragphy, for vlog video travel needs, cinematic and landscape photography, what lens should I use first?
My personal opinion would be the a6500 is better :) and I would look at the 18-105 f4 lens first.
@@dunnadidit thankyou dunna
My pleasure dude!
@@dunnadidit hi. When you say that lens first, does it mean focus on the kit lens first? Because in my country they are selling a6500 with this 30mm as the kit lens. So I'm intrigue. Is it enough for normal jpeg user for travel and street photography? Thanks.
I got the 16mm from sigma and used it on an event and i realized that after shifting back and forth with it and my sony 50mm, i need a mid range lens and i think you just helped me find one. Helpful video as always. Thanks.
Nice! My 30 is the go to mid range for sure! Glad the video helped!
Currently have the Sigma 16mm f1.4 and love it! Seriously considering adding this one to my kit ... thanks for the video!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Dunna Did It Dunna I did it. 👍 BH has this lens for $289!
Nice!!
"The Highest Rated APS-C lens EVER!" Not quite! The Sigma 18-35mm f1.8 DC HSM is rated higher by dxo.
When I search for it the 30mm still comes up higher than the 18-35. 30mm has a 29 rating and 18-35 has a 28 overall.
That being said! I appreciate you pointing it out either way! I was referring to e-mount lenses but didn’t specify in the title!
Lol! Please check for Nikon d500.
Lol well there it is haha, weird that it’s rated higher for Nikon than canon mount.
Thank you Sir, Just had to order it today to use as a b roll on a slider for detail work. I use a batis 18 2.8 but that 1.4 cream. Great video thank you.
That’s awesome! I hope you love it as much as I do!
Greetings from Edmonton! Nice to see another local artists!
Hey!!! Always good to see other yeggers!
Just ordered it.. So excited!
Nice! I hope you love it!
Dude, just followed you on Insta, how do you not have more followers and subscribers!? Great video's and content!
Thank you so much! I guess we need to share it more haha 😉
I plan on getting the a6100 with the 30mm sigma combo. after seeing this video I'm now more confident in this decision. thank you!!
Dunna! Great vid once again man. Think im going to go for the 30 for my canon. was contemplating a 16mm or another zoom but think I'm going to go prime and go 30mm. I shoot mainly street and landscape stuff so i think it will be nice!
Thanks so much dude! That’s great! I think sigma even made this same lens for canon too :) but yeah my 30mm stays on my camera a lot. Definitely worth having one around.
I just subs, you are amazing at what you do. Thanks for the great vids keep them coming.
God bless!
I just bought one! Can’t wait to test it out on my a6000 ❤️
I am using the 30mm on Sony 6300 for 2 years now. It’s one of the best lens I have ever used.
Thanks for the video review. Great job.
Cheers! Thanks for watching!

Thanks for submitting a question dude! I had 2 or three people ask the same question! That’s why I didn’t say anyone specific asked it!
Dunna Did It lol that's what I figured
👍😁
I'm sold. It's time to upgrade my kit lens. 👏👏👏
Yes!! You’re gonna love it! There’s a link in the description if you want to support the channel too!
Nice video, great dynamic!
this video answers my doubts as long as I hesitate to choose a 16mm Sigma lens or Sigma 30mm lens because my budget is more suitable for a 30mm Sigma but before that I was afraid that this lens was too zooming, this video holds my doubts, thank you
Glad the video was helpful!
