Just updated firmware on my 3 lenses last night. Made a big difference within focusing especially when used with the mc-11 on a full-frame sony mirrorless camera.
This is probably a dumb question but do you need wifi to update the firmware? And also the lens software window automatically opens up as you connect to your dock ? I dont remember getting any sigma software cd / link
AF, if you're able to, try using your 18-35mm lens on the Sony PXW-FS5 Mark I. I'm having all sorts of issues with my brand new lens. I've made Sigma aware and we're trying to get to the bottom of it. (Mount converter and FS5 have up-to-date firmware.)
Hey man! Thanks for this video! Really great info! And yeah, be interested on how you re-calibrate this SIGMA 18-35 lens.... maybe using a canon 80D? ,)
Please make the micro adjustment video, please! My 18-35 sucks when focusing through contrast detect but when focusing through live view (phase detect) its spot on.
100% would love to see a video on customising and callibrating the lens, also would love to see you do this with other Systems, like a n MFT lens, a Sony E mount lens etc.
Good day, I want to adjust the focus ring Sigma 18-35 for BMPCC6K I want it to be less sensitive, so that the course of the focus ring was more like on movie lenses. In the USB dock, in the sensitivity settings, can I configure the ring, or is this parameter just for switching from MF-AF-MF????
My Sigma 18-35mm just came in today and will not AF on my BMPCC 4k.. It's a bit aggravating that it wont work from the start. Especially after what I paid for it. Not to mention I wasn't aware of the updating feature that requires a $50 dock...
id really like it if you could make a video on how to adjust focus on this lens with the dock and software. Most of my pictures turn out nice but not all, partly due to focus
do i need to buy a dock to update the firmware in my sigma 30mm 1.4 because every time i try to do it while its connected to my a6500 it keeps giving me a message saying can't find my camera type of something weird along those lines.
Can the non art version be updated as well? I got a 50mm f1.4 non art version yesterday and the autofocus is unreliable. Also, is there any way to update without the dock?
Dude, I love your colors and set up on this video. Have you done a video showing how you get this effect? I also have the A7III, my first big boy camera. Going by your name, do you happen to be Brazilian?
Great video! Love your content, and would really like to see you calibrate your lens! I own the Sigma 18-35 and have done some focus calibration in my canon 70D already, but would like your input too. Best regards!
I didn't even know that you can calibrate lenses yourself. I have sony 55mm, 85mm, and 24 to 105mm. Should I do the same with those lenses? Upgrade the firmware? How?
Everything man! The bokeh, the sharpness (especially for pictures), the heft and weight of the lens. I'm going to do a review on it eventually. My favorite lens ever!
ill check out your channel! what body are you using and what are your other favourite lenses?! i'm on sl2 canon and 10-18mm and 24mm are my fav but i've been playing around with a 55mm f1.2 and it made me want more bokeh
I actually recommended the SL2 to my friend. It seems like a great camera (I'll be sure to borrow his sometime lol). I use the Canon 80D and I have the 50 1.8 and 10-18mm lenses. The 18-35 is by far the best out of all of them hands down. The others are garbage compared to it lol but that doesn't mean their not good and give you lots of creative flexibility. Let me know if you have any other questions!
Hi, I‘m thinking of purchasing this lens, but a lot of critique about the focus problem is still around. Does the calibration tackle this issue? Some say yes, others say no. What is your opinion?
Lovely video!!! I have a 18-35 parred with a 200d/sl2, but i am so disappointed with the focus accuracy, that i do consider Selling it. I have sent it back for calibration once, but still do front focus like crazy. Only when using focus through view finder though... ? Have you heard of similar issues or know how i should approach this problem if not selling? Kind regards Emil
@@mondobytes I am going crazy with this stuff. I have only 3 basic requirements. - Perfect autofocus - 10-bit 4:2:2 - RAW Not even a C200 can handle those 3 things. I believe the only working solution today is Nikon+Atomos and fixing N-Log. The problem is Nikon's 14-30mm F4 lens.
Fun fact this video was all shot with the Sony A7III
Looks great!... What Sony lens did you use in this video?
Peter Cerrato I used Canon lenses
Put a cap on that lens!
Yes please on the calibration video 👌🏿
Lighting turned out great!
I had no idea you could or should update a lens.
@@ZAKtalksTECH same!!
Please do the calibration video! :D
João Pedro Reis please please please :)
yes please!
yes can you do the calibration video Armanda please?
Thank you for showing how easy it is. I hadn't done it, but now that you demonstrated... I'll update the firmware
Thank you for the video! I have the Sigma lens for about a year. And I have a Sigma dock. Never "had time" to connect it to my Mac lol
The editing was insane... I like it👍👍👍👍👍👍
Just updated firmware on my 3 lenses last night. Made a big difference within focusing especially when used with the mc-11 on a full-frame sony mirrorless camera.
Yes please make a calibration video! There are not many that are good on UA-cam and would be extremely helpful. Thanks!
MY man! Thank you for this ... was having an issue with the 18-35mm on the S1H ... lens was NOT playing nice. The update took care of it. THANKS DOOD!
Yes!! Please post calibration video. Great job on the videos!

Ur Instagram stories are lit yiu share a lot of tips plz keep doing that type pf stories luv them
Awesome video, I bet people didn't know about updating lenses!
Great tip! I think the average consumers have no clue they can update the firmware on modern lenses since they don't think of them as electronics.
Yes! Would love a calibration video.
Hey man! Thanks for this video! Really great info! And yeah, be interested on how you re-calibrate this SIGMA 18-35 lens.... maybe using a canon 80D? ,)

Great video! Calibration video would be great!
Nice. Short and sweet. I'm going to subscribe. I hope that calibration vid is out. Gonna look for it now. Thanks again.
Have you done the calibration video?
Can you make a video on how to micro adjust a Canon lens?
Did you ever do a video on how you customized the auto focus?
Very Informative video Armando. I'm glad I picked up the 18-35. Also the A-roll setup is looking 🔥👌
100% would love to see a video on customising and callibrating the lens, also would love to see you do this with other Systems, like a n MFT lens, a Sony E mount lens etc.
I'm confused, so if I buy a sigma lens to use on my canon 80D I need to update the firmware on my lens? Please help!
That is correct
@@mondobytes ok thank you. I'm looking to get one for my camera.
I’m having focusing issues with my sigma 18-35. I’m going to try this!

I would love to see a calibration video. 😌✌🏾
Please make a video on more cheap filmmaking camera accessories
Can you please link me the video of you adjusting the auto focus on this lens please , I just got it and I’m lost
Thanks for making the link easily findable, you would think the manufacture would have made it this easy, but they didn't.
Hi, I was wondering if maybe you have experienced any red burn on subject skin while shooting stills with this lens?
id really like it if you could make a video on how to adjust focus on this lens with the dock and software. Most of my pictures turn out nice but not all, partly due to focus
Do you have a video of how to calibrate this exact lens?
Yes vote for calibration video, thx!
do i need to buy a dock to update the firmware in my sigma 30mm 1.4 because every time i try to do it while its connected to my a6500 it keeps giving me a message saying can't find my camera type of something weird along those lines.
good to know since i'm saving up for this lens!
Can the non art version be updated as well? I got a 50mm f1.4 non art version yesterday and the autofocus is unreliable. Also, is there any way to update without the dock?
Please show us how to calibrate this lens to fix focus issue
Awesome video, as usual this guy rocks!
Crispy bro
🙌🏼
18-35 fans unite ;)
YCImaging love your channel !
Very informative video, Gene
Nice video. Now I know how to update my lense/s. Do you buy used lenses? If so what site do you buy them from.
Where do we go to get our hands on one of those shirts?
please do a video on calibrating the 18-35 it would be extremely helpful
+1 for the calibration vid!
Hello, is it necessary to use Dock on the update? Can't I update with Mc11 help?
Did you do the calibration video? I don't see it
Is there any new firmware since the time you upgraded it?
Do you know if we can replace this Sigma dock with the sigma mc-11 to update the 18 to 35 lens?
Dude, I love your colors and set up on this video. Have you done a video showing how you get this effect? I also have the A7III, my first big boy camera.
Going by your name, do you happen to be Brazilian?
Any way to check the lens' current firmware level without using the dock? I don't want to buy the dock if I don't need a firmware upgrade.
Firmware updates are frequent so I’d recommend getting one as they can make a huge difference
Great video! Love your content, and would really like to see you calibrate your lens! I own the Sigma 18-35 and have done some focus calibration in my canon 70D already, but would like your input too. Best regards!
Going to do my today too thanks
I have all Tamron prime and zoom lenses
( Second generation )
And it is not compatible with my Canon c200 .
Hearing you say that gives me some hope
I didn't even know that you can calibrate lenses yourself. I have sony 55mm, 85mm, and 24 to 105mm. Should I do the same with those lenses? Upgrade the firmware? How?
This is literally a dream lens for my canon SL2 😍
I have it and it's amazing!
omg! what do you love about it
Everything man! The bokeh, the sharpness (especially for pictures), the heft and weight of the lens. I'm going to do a review on it eventually. My favorite lens ever!

Love that B roll

Do the video on how to calibrate the sigma lens please 🙏🏽
Se arreglo el problema de enfoque con la canon 80D?
is it worth the $50 for the dock? I got gh5 sigma 18-35mm and viltrox ef-m2 adapter
How do you calibrate the 18-35 sigma on the gh5?
I need too upgrade my firmware!
Plz plz plz do that focusing adjustment video that would be a great help

I would love to see a calibration video.
Please make video on how to calibrate 18-35mm f1.8. Thank you
Is it possible to update your lens from the camera body?
So you must have this dock?
*_Nice video enjoyed!_*
I don't have 2.01 It says mine is up to date
Great video as always sir!! And I LOOOOOOVE my Sigma 18-35mm!! But think It's ridiculous that Sigma sells the dock to update it as a separate piece.
I know this is a 6 year old comment but hey... You can update without the dock :)
@@dan_rad nope
yes please, make a video about how to calibrate !!!!!!!!
YASS BRO. do calibrate it and show us
Si me gustaría ver necesito calibrar mi Sigma me encanta el pero la parte de enfoque me tiene mal
How does your imac handle 4k editing on the premiere timeline?
Director Cyclone pshh like butter!
It's not really usable as a primary lens for C200 cause of the loud AF motor.
I use it all the time
@@mondobytes Doesn't the loud motor bug you? I had problems picking it up on a VideoMic.
@@mondobytes I am going crazy with this stuff. I have only 3 basic requirements.
- Perfect autofocus
- 10-bit 4:2:2
- RAW
Not even a C200 can handle those 3 things.

The problem is Nikon's 14-30mm F4 lens.
calibration video of the sigma 18-35 please.
Sir where is ur hp workstation...HV u migrated to imacpro😃😛
Available for windows?
Is there a new update of something?
good your videos is helpful
Would love to see that autofocus video..
I wonder how you calibrate your sigma 18-35 using sigma doc
From Insta and I am saying what's up okey 😎
👊
My focus on this lens is just not that good, I guess I should update it :)
Please make a tutorial about it
Not quite sure why 12 people gave this the thumbs down. What's not to like in this video?
thk
👍🔥👍
no need to calibrate for mirrorless cameras
Not really a 'how to' ,pre of a talk about it but not show you!
May I ask if I can update the 18-35 lens using the MC-11 adapter instead of Sigma dock ? is it possible ?
