I've had mine for almost 2 years now. It is the champion for sure. I really fell in love with this lens after upgrading from 6400 to FX-30. Feels so great that it covers 95% of your needs and can be efficient for all day shoots.
Yup. I have the lens, too. Its great. Everyone goes on and on about the Sigma 18-50mm, and people really sleeping on Tamron. Sharp at f/2.8, mad sharp at f/4
Thanks for the video comparison I thought it worked out well and your explanation and demonstrations. I've had mine now for about 6 to 7 weeks and it certainly has a great generalist approach as well as working well for my event stuff and interviews. ✌🏾📸
Thanks for keeping my request; !! 🤍 Here's one more video idea to work on: The Sony Lineup is really extensive and often baffling for beginners. An introduction of these lineups (like A7R, A7S, A7M, A7C, FX, A1, etc.) would really help out a large number of beginner audiences (lime me LMAO😂)
Thanks for the video. Today I bought a Tamron 17-70 for my Fujifilm X-S20 🙃 Long decision making. I even had already purchased the phenomenal Fujinon 16-55 f2.8, which I returned after one day. 😄 I am curious about this glass.
Your videos are great! Sort of poetic and whimsical at the same time. Should I buy the lens? Or have you found something better and cheaper since then?
Not really a good lens for the FX30. The VC can't be turned off and sometimes goes nuts. You cant zoom quickly without the image turning to jello. The AF sometimes turns to MF when you use clear zoom and you have to reboot the camera to get AF back. And I know this is subjective but I just don't find the image exciting.
I agree, I got it when it first released. It was still cheaper than a used Sony 16-55 at the time. It’s great for photos and decent for video till you move or zoom. I wish it was par focal.
I always thought to have that lens or the sigma 16 - 35 1.8 and the 50 - 150 1.8. If I can pick only one lens, it would be the tamron, but if I can choose, I would rather pick the sigmas
I bought the tamron few months ago. The autofocus + zoom on my sony fx30 is terrible, unusable. If you use it fixed all good, as soon as you touch the zoom it destroy the image. For most of the people it's a minor problem but it's there. Never had the same problem with a sony lens.
Hello, I would like to ask you, I have seen some videos of this lens presenting problems with stabilization, apparently the lens stabilization is not very compatible with the camera stabilization, I saw a video with a Sony fx30, but I don't know if it is with the 7iv something similar happened? Could you give me your opinion please?
Almost got this but ended up getting the Tamron 11-20 and Tamron 28-75 for the extra range on both ends. (17mm on APSC sometimes isn’t wide enough for my uses)
That's my main lens for my fx30 too, and this lens is very good, i haven't found a good small gimball for this settings but that could be a good solution for the small problem of stab' 👌Need to try it too in low light 👌
One thing I didn't like this lens is low light AF performance... Sometimes is hard to focus. I sold this lens most for the weight and size(now I have Sigma 18-50mm) but I miss the wide range (17-70mm)
This is going to be my main lens for my fs5. I've been using the fs5 a run and gun. Only thing I was missing was a zoom lens. Been shooting on primes for a long time now
Got one yet? Been thinking about getting one for the exact same camera! I'm particularly interested in how you can control internals such as VC (on/off) and AF/MF on the FS5.
Would you still recommend this for a sony apsc camera or is there a better option? like i heard about the sony 16-55 f2.8 is a little sharper but doesn't have the range or stabilization
Very nice lens! I have been working with the 16-35 f2.8 gmaster and 35-150 f2-2.8 Tamron. I sort of need a smaller and lighter lens for my A7SIII. Great video! I loved seeing your BTS of Tokyo!
I just ordered the Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 and now I'm wondering if I should return that and get this lens instead? Do you think the Sigma lens does a better job at stabilizing the footage while walking? Or is it about the same? Thanks for another fun review! Your haircut looks great, but I like the long hair too😁
The Sigma 18-50 doesn't have stabilization. It's not wide enough and doesn't reach as much as the Tamron. It's only advantages are sharpness and size. But if you prefer both of those things, then get the prime lenses instead.
I kinda wish I hadn't sold mine so soon to play around with it a bit more, and it would have been interesting to try it with the a6700 that I ordered. Though I'm happy with my Sigma 18-50
Hi bro, I'm about to do product photography and wish to do portrait too but confused on which one to get either sigma 18-50 or tamron 17-70...

Don't use IBIS of the camera as Tamron had VC. Do this and you will be good to go. if you will go with Sigma y'll miss that extra range at the telephoto end. I'll suggest, go with Tamron.
Okay guys, if you are still hiding anything from me, spill it out before I conclude anything stupid 😂
Sigma 56mm and 23mm prime lenses, sharper than any Sony lens and super fast auto focus.
hope you're aware of the very reasonably priced Viltrox 27 f/1.2 & 75 f/1.2 apsc lenses 😅
I've had mine for almost 2 years now. It is the champion for sure. I really fell in love with this lens after upgrading from 6400 to FX-30.
Feels so great that it covers 95% of your needs and can be efficient for all day shoots.
Do you experience breathing problems during autofocus in the video ?
Yup. I have the lens, too. Its great. Everyone goes on and on about the Sigma 18-50mm, and people really sleeping on Tamron. Sharp at f/2.8, mad sharp at f/4
Comparison of them might be interesting!!
just ordered!!!!!!!! super pumped
@@KenseiAkatsu I would love that to be honest.

Great choice!!
Have you tried the Viltrox 75mm F1.2?
Your videos are great! Sort of poetic and whimsical at the same time. Should I buy the lens? Or have you found something better and cheaper since then?
I think I was one of those who bugged you about this lens. Glad you liked it. Enjoy!
What camera and lens you used to shoot the intro?
Shot 1 &2 - FX30 and this lens
Shot 3 - bmpcc6k and sigma 18-35mm
@@KenseiAkatsuBmpcck rocks
Can you try this lens on the Sony zv e10 please

What do you recommend??? Thank you
Better option? Like???

50-150 1.8f ? does lense like that exist?
@@enduroacademy I think he meant the 50-100
Hello! Where can i find your video of your fx30 settings?
My second channel but I think Im re-making it on this channel
8:31 your calculation is wrong. 17mm x1.5 apsc crop x 1.2 active steadyshot crop = 30.5mm full frame equivalent.

I bought the lens it has no bokeh
Really??

Wondering about this aswell
This lens on the Sony A74 in crop mode is impeccable
you should test the Sigma 18-50 F2.8 and compare it to Tamron 17-70 F2.8
That is on the way my friend!
Almost got this but ended up getting the Tamron 11-20 and Tamron 28-75 for the extra range on both ends. (17mm on APSC sometimes isn’t wide enough for my uses)
are you landscaper bro? what's your gallery i wanna take an eyeful of lands
That's my main lens for my fx30 too, and this lens is very good, i haven't found a good small gimball for this settings but that could be a good solution for the small problem of stab' 👌Need to try it too in low light 👌
Make a video Sony A6700 please with termon lens or other best lens for videography and photography please 🥰🙏
Yes!!

Good for you!!
You should've told me about this a little earlier tho lol 😂
Buying a a6700 to pair with my Sony a7iv! Best of both worlds!
That is the dream!!

Honestly I'm not sure about it. I guess they are not that different. But I will make a comparison of them soon!
The Sigma 18-50 doesn't have stabilization. It's not wide enough and doesn't reach as much as the Tamron. It's only advantages are sharpness and size. But if you prefer both of those things, then get the prime lenses instead.
skin tone looking kinda rough on the first shot ngl
Amazing work!
Thank you! Cheers!
Kensei will you cover the new Sony A6700? that would be cool!
Yes!
I think so too !
I kinda wish I hadn't sold mine so soon to play around with it a bit more, and it would have been interesting to try it with the a6700 that I ordered. Though I'm happy with my Sigma 18-50
That lens is also on my list!!
I got the Sigma 18-50 as well, a light weight is super important to me. I pair it with a Tameron 11-20 and a Sigma 56mm prime.
Hi bro, I'm about to do product photography and wish to do portrait too but confused on which one to get either sigma 18-50 or tamron 17-70... I'm using sony a7iii for now and some said tamron 17-70 has image stabilisation and doesn't work well with sony a7iii which is also include stabilisation..please help me 😢
Don't use IBIS of the camera as Tamron had VC. Do this and you will be good to go. if you will go with Sigma y'll miss that extra range at the telephoto end. I'll suggest, go with Tamron.
Can anyone recommend a good vnd filter for this Tmrn 17-70
Nisi
so if use on fx30 at 120 FPS its not a good lens?
I assume that the image will be too cropped, if u want shoot at 100/120 fps - better to choose lenses with less mm
Yellow skin 😬
