SIGMA 56MM F1.4 | LONDON POV STREET PHOTOGRAPHY

You all may know by now that my favourite lens is the Tamron 17-70MM F2.8 has been amazing BUT at low light / for portrait shoots I never felt like the aperture (F number) was low enough to give me good low light performance and that creamy background blur.
In this POV Street Photography video I'm taking out my Sigma 56MM F1.4 prime lens out into London to do some nighttime city scape & portrait photography - both of which are areas where this lens really shines

great lens, love it. planning on getting the sigma 23mm 1.4 too

[@JimmyShixin]

I was thinking about it but honestly don’t think I’d use it much as I already have the trio with the 16, 30 and 56mm 😅

Thank you!!

It really does look like a great and versatile lens! Would have picked it up by now too if there was a version with the right mount for my camera 🙈 Amazing photos, as usual! Love the little impromptu photoshoot. The mirror shots especially at 12:13 made me do a little gasp!

[@JimmyShixin]

It’s a nice lens for sure! Which camera do you use? There must be a comparable lens no?

@@JimmyShixin I've got the Canon EOS M50 Mark II to start with! I've got an adapter mount so I can fit my Canon 70-200mm on it (no expense spared there). I've looked and perhaps I looked wrong, but I don't think there is an EF or EF-M version of the lens. No worries though, perhaps when I upgrade or maybe there's an alternative, indeed 🙂
