For people deciding between the Sigma and the Tamron, I just wanted to add to the conversation that the Tamron is weather sealed - combined with the lighter weight, makes it easier to hike/travel with.
I owned the Sigma 28-70 for about two months after selling my three year old Tamron 28-75 and before buying the new Tamron 28-75 G2. My experience is the small Sigma was not noticeably better than the Tamron G1, only slightly lighter. Sold it and am now shooting with the Tamron 28-75 G2 because it seems to offer a bit more sharpness, smoother bokeh and is only marginally heavier than the small Sigma. My experience is not scientific, only anecdotal.
Good stuff. This will help me pick the Sigma for my FX3. I would say since you don't talk super loud like me, 😆 make sure to turn the mic up and lower music.
I saw so many reviews saying how sharp the sigma 24-70 is. As someone having used now two copies-it sharp in the dead center, that’s about it. Outside of the center third it’s sharpness drops horrendously. Not sure where so many people see “sharpness” with this lens. I’d like a lens that I can align a subject on the third line and still get a very sharp image. Not so with the Sigma. The Tamron on the other hand is exceptional.
I can't speak with too much authority on the Sigma 28-70 bc I haven't tested that lens for review yet, however the Tamron G2 really stands up to the Sony G-Master and SIGMA art, making it a pretty incredible lens for its price point. I don't think you can go wrong either way, but if you're someone who plans on sticking to one brand over the other in the long run that may be the determining factor.
@@FocusCameraTV I just got the G2 and am really loving it, was considering exchanging for the Sigma 28-70 only because it's a little smaller and lighter but don't want to give up any quality, thinking I'll just stick with this Tamron G2 after seeing how well it compares to the G Master and Art lenes :) Thanks for such an informative video!
I recently upgraded to a full frame mirrorless. This is super helpful. I love the humor in the video as well - especially the arrow that pointed to the Tamron that said "Smol"
because its not an Art lense so they look over it...I actually have the 28-70 sigma ..shot a whole event with it love it..sharp! idk if I want to go with that or get the tamron....that's why im here cause I just bought it not too long ago
I own the Tamron first version. Fast Af and sharp as the Sony 55mm 1.8. I use it for wedding details or just to walk around. I wonder how different the G2 version is.
Well, for the price difference the Sony GM doesn't even exist! I hope they release an updated, smaller version in the $1300-$1400 range to actually compete with Sigma. Looks like Samyang just released their 24-70 and yet it's 300g HEAVIER than the Sigma and Sony??!! Not sure why anyone would choose a heavier option at this point in the game. Seems like the worst choice of all for me personally. Tamron seems like a great choice if you aren't totally in love with 24mm. I'm personally waiting for Sigma to release a new version that doesn't have dust issues and is hopefully at least 100g lighter. I love compact lenses but the more I get into photography, the more willing I am to carry bigger, premium lenses around. We'll see what new announcements we get in the coming year! Thanks for the video, well done.
@@elkwewwef that's super interesting actually, thanks for sharing. For me though, I want to see everything get smaller, lighter, and cheaper lol but I didn't realize the Samyang had those benefits. Cheers

Thank you for the comparison! I have tamron 28-75 and like it. I knew sigma 24-70 is good, didn’t know it’s such a beast. I preordered Tamron g2, hope sigma will drop the weight for 24-70 G2.

@@tomirwinphoto I have been caught up with exactly this conundrum - 24-70 vs the new g2. Just like you I also like the separation and the crispness the primes give - I think I'll sit on the fence for a while longer.
@kevin ruiters My decision was based on the fact that the differences in image quality among midrange zooms is minor in comparison with that of a prime lens. Currently the Sigma 24-70 is only $50 higher than the Tamron 28-75 G2 so my decision to go with the new Tamron was not about price. The Sigma is 50% heavier with maybe a 2% improvement in IQ or maybe less. The light form factor of the Tamron made my decision. I've got 3 primes for when I need more "pop." Sigma Art 135 1.8, Sigma 85 1.4 and Rokinon 35 1.4. Also have the Tamron 17-28 and 70-180.
@@tomirwinphoto you made a very good decision. Sigma 24-70mm f2.8 art is a dust magnet. Even after the repairs, still it accumulates dust. It can't be used outdoors. I sold mine.
I haven't personally used the Tamron lens for an extended enough time period to get a good grasp on how it holds up with dust issues, however, I have worked with several other filmmakers and videographers--especially those in the wedding and event space--who use this as their primary lens, and swear by it. Hope this helps.
The auto-focus is so good on all of these lenses, I don't think any of them will present a problem there. Rather, if you are looking which is best for video, consider the weight difference in the Tamron along with the updated features in regards to manual focusing options it presents. If you want something light-weight for video, that also lets you pick A/B focus points, and has good control of focus breathing, the Tamron is a really good option. For photography I did prefer the Sigma, but this is in a more controlled studio environment.
Please let me know Did Sigma 24-70 still has a dust issue in front element?? I'm into photography so I'm eagerly waiting for your reply.. what Should I choose Tamron G2 or Sigma Art?? Please help me.. @Focus Camera
@focuscamera I am trying to decide between the new Tamron 28-75 G2 and the Sigma 24-70 DG DN, I am adding a wide zoom to my bag so I am going with the Sigma 14-24 instead of the 12-24 Sony because of the price.
@@FocusCameraTV thank you, I wish the Tamron wide was wider than 17-28, I currently don't have a wide so maybe I should get the 17-28 until I can upgrade to the Sony 12-24 GM
Interesting review, would be great to see the new GM 2 put to the same test. I'm a Sigma fan, i think they can make some phenomenal glass (40mm f/1.4 Art is an example). I would not touch their 24-70 lens due to the reports on the dust issue, which is a massive shame. I have the older 28-75 Tamron, and its a decent little lens for the price. I've got my eye on the new Sony 24-70 GM2, in the hope of improve AF performance, and hopefully sharpness out from centre.
I'm hoping to review the GM2 shortly. Not sure if I want to do a straight up comparison with the GM1 model or maybe another versatile zoom like the Tamron 35-150. Will have to think about it.
@@evinvestfuture7440 Yes. Any 24-70 with a serial number above the 5504 has been fixed and Sigma will fix + clean any 24-70 under that serial number for free as well. I live in Arizona (dusty af) and my 24-70 is spotless so far
@@BlakeMadsen Seen people on Reddit saying that S/N's post 5504 are still getting dust in the elements. I'm in the CA desert planning on doing a film with a lot of sand/dirt in the air, have you tried anything like that?
I have an FE 24-105 F4 OSS and any of these lenses I want to get are always: 1. As heavy or heavier than the lens I already have 2. Within a couple hundred bucks of the Sony (I live in Japan and used gear here is still expensive for Canon and Sony) 3. Without OSS So every time I want to get a smaller 24-75 range lens...I end up just sticking with the 24-105. There's no good option for FE, especially since the Zeiss midrange is so poorly designed that it's soft in the corners. I would LOVE to have a light 20-80mm zoom with constant F4 and at least some kind of OSS. I'd pay good money for a mechanical focus ring and a programmable button, too.
Since making this video, sony has released their newer (much lighter and compact) 24-70mm f2.8. It's pricey, but has amazing autofocus, customizable buttons + ibis. But if the f2.8 doesn't matter much to you the 25-105 is a great lens :).
I’m not trying to be rude but I don’t see why tamron has the a and b point focus for focus pulls. I’d be hard pressed to see anyone who actually shoots something that requires a focus puller use a focus by wire lens. Also do you have to plug it into a pc to set the points every time? Just seems like a gimmick (may be useful to someone I guess). Professional film sets buy matching lenses so they don’t even have to move the focus pulling system to fit lens gears since that eats up time on set. Using a laptop every time you need to adjust your focus points sounds like a hassle..
Tamron G1 was a great lens and I felt it was only missing an MF switch. It was also made in China and the G2 is now made in Japan, so that should make it even better in theory. Anyone on the fence won't be disappointed if you go Tamron. It's a situation where you're splitting hairs and they're all good. I have not yet used the G2, but I can say that Tamron produces top quality e-mount lenses that produce great images for both photo and video with fast AF
well... is something that few people now about this Sigma lens. Sigma 24 70 become very dusty very quick from inside.. not to think to have SIgma lens out at nature!
The biggest selling point for this lens is the weight and the price. I've just ordered one because it can be used for photos and for video on a gimbal.
ever notice focus breathing so to say when filming outdoors? ive been getting crazy focus pulsing in the corners as of late with the a7III and tamron first gen 28-75
The Tamron is the better overall build. It is far better weather sealed than the Art. The Art can't use the MF ring for Iris. It can't program focus pulls. It can't convert to linear MF for controlled rack. How this is seen as a disadvantage for the Tamron eludes me.
I had both Sony GM and Sigma 24-70. I got rid of Sony because I dropped it pretty heavily and official Sony service couldn't fix it beyond a warranty period (it was cheaper to buy a new one). Since I was tight on a budget I had to buy Sigma 24-70mm and that thing drove me crazy! Sigma is not Sony GM in each single aspect! I do landscape photography and for that purpose Sigma is just too bad. Non-plain focus of Sigma was just inappropriate for my work. It needs to mention how much dust it sucked for literally 2 trips to woods, not a desert. I know Sigma upgraded that lens with better dust resistance, but I did not want to buy another crapy lens and sold it to a video guy, who was more than happy (got a feedback from him in quite some time). I hope to buy a new lens for 24-70mm and really don't care about getting as wide as 24mm because I have another gm which is 16-35mm. 16-35mm is far superior than 24-70mm GM on the wide end anyway. I need to test new Tamron and may be I will buy one eventually. I like that Tamron does not sit still and issues upgrades to such popular products.
Nothing really changed! The cheap light Tamron is the worst of the 3. You pay for what you get, except Sigma ART series lenses beats all others in build quality and sharpness 97% of the time at just about half the price. Cheers
This week picked up the Tamron 28-75 G2 after having briefly owned the Sigma 28-75 and having owned the T 28-75 G1 for over two years. Of the three my initial brief use of the G2 is smoother bokeh and sharper IQ. It's supposed to focus faster too. Contemplating the Sigma 24-70 but the Tamron G2's IQ and significantly lighter weight may have me keep the new Tamron. My experience with the Tamron G1 was that it was very well made and was as good as new after 30 months of use.
@@tomirwinphoto I'm a novice photographer upgrading to Sony full frame after 11 years on a Nikon d3100, all your comments have been so helpful. I was set on the sigma art until I read all these comments about dust so not sure what to do now.

The Tamron is the better overall build. It is far better weather sealed than the Art. The Art can't use the MF ring for Iris. It can't program focus pulls. It can't convert to linear MF for controlled rack. How this is seen as a disadvantage for the Tamron eludes me.
Yeah, seems to me if you shoot a lot video, the tamron is the way to go by a mile.
I had both Sony GM and Sigma 24-70. I got rid of Sony because I dropped it pretty heavily and official Sony service couldn't fix it beyond a warranty period (it was cheaper to buy a new one). Since I was tight on a budget I had to buy Sigma 24-70mm and that thing drove me crazy! Sigma is not Sony GM in each single aspect! I do landscape photography and for that purpose Sigma is just too bad. Non-plain focus of Sigma was just inappropriate for my work. It needs to mention how much dust it sucked for literally 2 trips to woods, not a desert. I know Sigma upgraded that lens with better dust resistance, but I did not want to buy another crapy lens and sold it to a video guy, who was more than happy (got a feedback from him in quite some time). I hope to buy a new lens for 24-70mm and really don't care about getting as wide as 24mm because I have another gm which is 16-35mm. 16-35mm is far superior than 24-70mm GM on the wide end anyway. I need to test new Tamron and may be I will buy one eventually. I like that Tamron does not sit still and issues upgrades to such popular products.
Sigma🤔
Sigma is sharp!
Refer to things in pounds
Nothing really changed! The cheap light Tamron is the worst of the 3. You pay for what you get, except Sigma ART series lenses beats all others in build quality and sharpness 97% of the time at just about half the price. Cheers
This week picked up the Tamron 28-75 G2 after having briefly owned the Sigma 28-75 and having owned the T 28-75 G1 for over two years. Of the three my initial brief use of the G2 is smoother bokeh and sharper IQ. It's supposed to focus faster too. Contemplating the Sigma 24-70 but the Tamron G2's IQ and significantly lighter weight may have me keep the new Tamron. My experience with the Tamron G1 was that it was very well made and was as good as new after 30 months of use.
@@tomirwinphoto I'm a novice photographer upgrading to Sony full frame after 11 years on a Nikon d3100, all your comments have been so helpful. I was set on the sigma art until I read all these comments about dust so not sure what to do now.
