You got me with the thumbnail
If you use a Sony A7r V, you can get 900 mm in APS-C crop mode without having to make any significant compromises. It is worth considering for these users to only buy a telephoto lens with a range of up to 400 mm but with an aperture of f/2.8 in order to then have 600 mm with f/2.8 in APS-C crop mode. 🙄 Thanks for showing. 👍😃
I have been using the DSLR version of the lens for about 3 years now matched with a Nikon d500. It’s my go to lens for birding. Great review…
Looks great ☺️
Pair this with a solid 20ishmm fast aperture lens and you might have an impressive two lens combo
Hope you enjoyed your trip to Oregon.
It should be pointed out that while this is the first 60-600 developed for mirrorless, it's not the first 60-600. Sigma made one for DSLRs. I have it adapted on my Canon R5 and it works well. This one has a different optical design, maybe a faster AF motor, and sheds half a pound, but the tripod foot is substantially shorter.
Came because I was wondering who the dude in thumbnail was and if Arthur replaced himself xD
Amazing! 🤩
Missed off the Tamron 18-300 that I bought off your review :-) that's an amazing lens on the a6500 crop
new video yey!
Great review as always. I plan to compensate for low light with iso and lightroom denoise as well ad slower shutter relying on thee great os and ibis. I PLAN TO USE IT WITH A7R5 and A7siii where applicable.
Great reviews. Did you get shorter or are you far from the camera?
AWESOME!😍😍😍😍😍 That is what I am talking about!
No doubting this is a niche lens, but for what it is, it seems awesome!
What camera backpack can you recommend for a larger setup like S5 II or EOS R6 with 60-600mm + second body + 24-70mm and maybe 50mm lenses?
On top batteries, filters and a dji mini 3 drone would be awesome.
If you add the Sony 16-35 GM you’d have a great travel kit for landscapes and wildlife. Think Alaska cruise or African Safari.
How does the autofocus & stabilization compare to the Sony 70-350?
I know different lens but to get an idea. Thank you!
Woah, that lens on an A7c?! Still waiting for the Tamron 150-400mm f/2.8-5.6 Di III VC VXD.
9:13 I lol'd
Great review, this seems like such a versatile lens. For the close up shots of the lens text which lens did you use? I hate being "that person" but the purple fringing around the text was really noticeable. I'm looking to get a macro lens, but it seems like there aren't any good gen 2's out. Wasn't sure if you were using the Sony 90mm macro?
No, that was the Sigma 18-50, i should have stopped down for sure.
@Arthur R is Sigma planning to have this same lens for Canon and Nikon ? cause they already have a same lens earlier, so will they introduce the same functionality now by upgrading them?
Tamron 70-300 is something I can't give up, shooting full frame or APS-C. It's so light, sharp, and the price is right.
It's weird to see that in europe the price difference is substantially wider with the Sony 200-600 at 1900€ and Sigma 60-600 at 2350€ 🤔
Having a 70-200 my heart would obviously go to the 200-600 but although I'm absolutely sure it will produce stunnig images I haven't bought it yet because I think it would spend too much time sitting on the shelf 😢
Hi Artur , i am using Sony slt à58 model and i have 50mm 1.8, can u suggest any prime zoom lens which can be used as allround lens for events and tours .Bit confused what lens fits and what doesn't fit this A series apsc mount..
Primes do not zoom
the sigma 60mm f2.8 art also had a linear focus motor, just not with this fancy naming.
As this is a full frame lens, the actual focal is 90-900 on the APSC mode.
Dang I want this thing so bad.
Hey Buddy
How will that 7 stops work with sonys A7RV 5 stops?
Will they work together giving you 13 stops?
Good question. I was wondering how it would pair with that camera. I want to buy one long telephoto. But nothing beats a good 70 200 f2.8. this lens could complement or would you say the 70 200 would be redundant. I don't think so.
For wildlife the 200-600 is a no-brainer. Internal zoom, cheaper, native, TC support. For landscape the Tamron 50-400 is my pick. A lot cheaper, very sharp, less than half the weight, a lot smaller.
Personally i like my tamron 70-300 fullframe as it is only 545g and works well with a7c and Ibis in photo and video. But i use a Smallrig 3212 cage which helps for more stability and better grip for longer lens. And the price is very affordable. The sigma is impressive but it is too heavy and big for me. I prefer the compact size of the tamron 70-300 (450 in video). For hiking and wildlife it works great.
That's a great lens if you only need 300mm, apples and oranges.
@@littlecreekbowclub5288 if you accept 10 mp photo with a7c you get up to 450mm and you get even more with clearzoom way over 600mm so it is not necessary to bring a 2.8kg lens except if you are specialist and make money with it.
Hi im planning to buy a6100 , should i wait for the new sony release, im only focused on photography, can anyone help me
If you get a good deal, do it. I do think a new generation of APSC cameras is coming soon.
@@ArthurR thank you for replying brother, was never expected, following you since 4 years 😌❤️
$2000 plus the cost of a decent monopod. I just don't see using that without one. Even the 70-350mm Sony lens is a little unbalanced on the A6x00, and this seems like it would dwarf even the full frame bodies.
Arthur, as an alternative to the Sony a7c $1800, Sony 200-600 $2000, 2 Sony teleconverters, $1100, you could get the Lumix S5II $2000, 60-600 $2000, teleconverters $700, Sony $4,900 vs Sigma $4,700. Also the S5II has mind blowing stabilization in the body, in addition to the 7 stops in the lens. And the Sigma ver of the lens has more features than the Sony version of the Sigma lens. BTW, your foto models can’t be improved!
How it all went with a7c regarding handling? Were you be able to zoom in/out and change your left hand position on the buttons? How hard it was?
Takes out Canons RF 7.1
I don't shoot wildlife but in my last trip I was willing to try as I had chance to meet wildlife photographer team!
Love the new sigma telephoto release and great focal length !! Prices is penny for passion photoshoot but not profession$
Very cool lens. If anyone is looking for a great all in one package with a Zeiss 24-600 mm lens with 24 fps check out the 1 inch sensor Sony RX10 mark IV. A little tougher to use in low light than a full frame, but still great for almost everything. But 900 mm on an APSC or APSC mode would definitely be fun.
Nikon p1000
@@pavelxbushmakin7252shitty phone sensor lol
Oh great: I -just- bought its predecessor! *LOL* Luckily it was on a significant sale so I guess I can live without the wider end - and with the extra money still in the bank.
Which one is the predecessor?
The 100-400 or the 150-600? I am still struggling with my decision.
@@Whittmike2011 The 150-600.
is it just me or are there a lot of innuendos 🤣
If you put it on 1.5x crop sensor camera you will get more of a 90 to 900mm fov....
I think the Sony FE 200-600mm F5.6-6.3 G OSS is a better option.
I have to agree. Arthur left out one important feature of the Sony lens. It has internal zooming. I really don't like long zooms that grow in length. Short zooms is OK, but then Sony released two short zooms with internal zooming, the PZ 16-35 full frame and PZ 10-20 for crop sensor. Wish the long Sony zooms have PZ function.
Doesn't really cover the 50-100-ish range in a practical way. Yes, the focal ranges are covered technically speaking, but there's so many scenarios where you'd like to walk around with a 75, or 85, or 100, maybe even a 135, but you wouldn't want to carry this bazooka with you. I do street photos sometimes with an 105 for example, I would never do that with this monster.
Still no Sigma 70-200 f2.8 or f4
"10x zoom" is this early 2000s by chance?
Surprised to see grant cardone
not related to this video, but does anybody know how the Sony 18-135mm compares to the Sigma 16-50mm?
Yes, I know the Sigma is sharper, but by how much? is it comparable at all?
Hi, did you mean sigma 18-50 2,8?
I Had this , the Tamron 17-70 and compared it with my 18-135 for testings
All of These lenses had nearly the Same sharpness IMO.
@@rooob74 yes I did. Thanks! I'm just nervous about spending that much on a lens (18-135mm) with the same light performance as the kit lens since I intend to make it my only lens for the time being
@@mikepanton Centre sharpness, yes.. the 18-135 kit lens is not that far behind; but sharpness across the frame, I’d say the Sigma and Tamron is much sharper. If I’m on a budget, I’d go for the Sigma 18-50. That f2.8 aperture does make a difference..
@@saifaldin_ thanks!
Sorry to mention this but crop and zoom are two different things. 600mm on an APS-C aren‘t the same as 900mm on a full frame. The physical properties of the lens like the angle of view stay the same the whole time and the result on an APS-C sensor is nothing but a cropped version of a full frame picture. You simply cut off the information around the edges instead of magnifying the subject. In other words, you won‘t „get closer“ to the subject by using an APS-C camera.
As far as the f-stop is concerned, the amount of light that hits the sensor is actually identical (1.4 on an APS-C are the same as on a FF) but you have to multiply the f-stop with the crop factor in order to obtain a similar depth of field compared to a full frame image.
Otherwise, it would make teleconverters obsolete. Instead of using a 1.4x TC (with real magnification capabilities), which also makes your lens „slower“, you could simply use an APS-C camera but that‘s not how it works.
It‘s not a question of faith but physics.
I wanted to add this comment because the topic repeatedly leads to confusion, especially for newbies.
this time you don't plug the lens on the camera but the camera on the lens lol.
Amazing but the price... :/
compare the 60-600s bokeh to even the basic 150-600C and you will realize the 150-600 is superior to the 60-600
Thumbs down for cardone
It looks quite similar as your thigh.
LOL, "Good resale value" LOL.... You will be lucky to get 30% or 40% of the value. Sorry, but This is absolutely a "Must give decent review of lens otherwise I am not getting anything else pre-production from Sigma in the future." Love you Arthur but you spend 90% of the time putting this lens on the pedestal, and 1 min glancing over the MAJOR issues with this lens.
The existing 100-400mm sigma lens (Sony Mirror Mount) has a focus error, so I installed the service, and the driver said,
Mirrorless lenses were released because they said they couldn't adjust the focus, but I wonder if 60-600mm has a focus error.
They're surprised to see the pot lid surprised by the turtle. The lens focused on the back of the subject,
