“Between the Sigma 18-50 F2.8 and the Sony 18-105 F4, if you are still considering which one to buy, I would recommend buying the Sigma lens because F2.8 can really come in useful in a lot of cases. And, if you are worrying about the tele end can buy an 85 mm prime lens. That would be a great combination. Now, if you already have either of these lenses and you are thinking about getting the other one, well, I think you probably don't need both. Either of these lenses combined with a prime lens would make more sense than having both lenses that cover a very similar range, in my opinion. But if you have the budget, the benefit of getting both lenses is that at daytime you can use Sony 18-105 for longer focal length and at night you can use Sigma 18-50. So either way, you only have to bring one lens at a time.” Very sensible conclusion. Thank you for helping me make up my mind. I enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work
All that is true but a major advantage that the sony 18-105 has is PZ and OSS which is crucial for video handheld and when needing some effects on a gimbal even if you don't use a zoom in and out effect on the gimbal with the sigma you are stuck at the same focal length on the gimbal since it is not PZ and would need to be rebalanced to not damage the motors over time. I still don't think a lens exist that can solve all the issues that could come up. The perfect lens in my opinion would 16-150mm f2 pz oss/ibis/vc which ever you call it. This could handle video and photography and low light which a great range. But for apsc that just doesn't exist right now maybe it will someday
Thank you so so so much for this video. All the big name UA-camrs couldn't do a comparison and here we are with your video. This is literally a god send, thank you so so so much.
great comparison! I don't ever go above iso 3200 even when doing astrophotography because there is just too much noise on my a6100 [regardless of exposure length]. I actually sold my 18-105 for the sigma 18-50 but I must admit, I miss the zoom toggle for gimbal use. It was super easy to get those vertigo shots when rolling back on a skateboard. With the sigma (especially the trio) I always turn on zebra lines because it becomes very easy to overexpose shots even at iso 100. The 18-105 is a better outdoor run and gun video shooter [with oss] but the sigma 18-50 works so much better indoors on a tripod. It kind of depends on what you are looking for. I love both of these lenses.
"The 18-105 is a better outdoor run and gun video shooter [with oss] but the sigma 18-50 works so much better indoors on a tripod." Interesting. I thought with the smaller size, 18-50 would be better for run and gun. But you got a point, thanks for sharing.
Great comparison! I actually decided to get the Sigma 18-50mm f2.8- being able to cut the ISO in half is a good thing for video...I prefer to use lower ISOs...and I already own the SIgma 16mm and 30mm f1.4 but for some events (wedding receptions etc) is not practical changing lenses so a zoom is the most convenient way. I will keep the Sony f4 lens for sure. It's a great lens for sure and besides I also own a Sony a6400 so I can use all my lenses in two Sony APSC bodies. For now. I have the tools to make good videos and make some income. Thanks so much for this video. Takes a lot of hard work to get it together.
Very informative video. Thank you. I already have sigma 16mm f1.4 and I am planning to take an all around daily lens. What's you advice. I Using my zv e10 for travel video ana I don't want to change lens every moment.
Thank you! If you already have sigma 16mm f1.4, I guess low light isn't a problem, unless you often need longer focal length at night, otherwise Sony 18-105 f4 would be a great choice.
I have just bought the Sigma but im a little bit worried because when filming at F2.8 it as a lot of vignette. Those your sigma have that too? love your videos.

I would prefer the sony 18-105 F4 for that longer focal length. For a very low light scenario I prefer a prime lens specifically the F1.4 Sigma trio.
Great choice! The first two lenses I got are Sigma 16mm f1.4 and Sony 18105 f4!

Thank you! I didn't notice a lot of vignette from my sigma lens, but I've heard someone complaining about this problem too
看了很多鏡頭評測，最終購買了18105 F4 18105用途很廣 但好想要大光圈 不怕低光和超Sharp照片😭以後打算Sigma 16/30mm 😋
我也是18105 F4 用了一段時間才買Sigma 1850，白天時當一般旅遊鏡，就算只有f4也很好用
@@ConstantineSPhotography 新手來說算很夠用 礙於預算不夠 看了你光圈對比 F4勉強 看來F2.8才能滿足我 畫質狗 對高光圈/畫質的追求🤣
這兩支都很實用，不管買哪一支當作第一個鏡頭我都覺得很適合，找到自己喜歡的焦段後再買大光圈定焦鏡👍👍
Muy buena comparación
Thank you very much!
nice comparo
