I bought one a few months back for shooting actual art - paintings and low-relief sculpture content. Even pixel-shift. Superb. When the weather's a bit better, I plan on some urban night shots, too. Very pleased with it.
Thanks for the extensive footage of the lens on the A7 body, I wanted to get an idea of the appearance of the lens attached to the body as some people have said that it is sooo large. Seems pretty acceptable to me though.
I’ve always wanted to do a channel, but I am quite content watching you & some others, you do a great job! I joined you back around the 2.3k sub area, & I do/did enjoy & miss the constant cereal, cake, ice cream 🍦 jokes! We are rooting for you & your second cousin Jason, I am sure you all will catch up to your uncle Peter soon! All the best!
First of all, your videos are amazing !! I really enjoy watching your videos it's always fun for me and my friends. Today I made a makro picture with just turning a normal lens around and it worked perfectly fine. It would be a perfect video topic ^-^ you doing a great job !
I like how you described it lol, as the difference between using a kit lens and then you find out how freaking dope and luscious the prime lenses are. 👍🏾Another great vid from you!
That's a beautiful lens for sure,i own so many ART lenses and i love them but please don't say that the aperture ring on the lens is a fastest way to change aperture,that's not true. On Sony or any other camera the aperture can be set on the front or rear wheel which means you change it with the same hand that you hold the camera without looking , where the aperture rings on the lens requires 2 hands on the camera to operate. It's also something that may break in the future or easy to knock for a wedding photographer while walking. Good review,good lens for sure but the aperure ring...Meh...Sigma E mount lenses and Sony E mount lenses need to stop copy the Fuji lens design,is not practical...The only real benefit is for videographers which have the choice to De-Click the aperture
Bill Zidis Personally I LOVE aperture rings and I only shoot stills. Fuji has the right idea and I wish Sony would add them to more than just the GM line.
It’s so funny how everyone shoots so different in their ways with photography and video 😄 I personally just think the lens rings get in the way be it photo or video. But I do more events then anything and like the other guy says a flick of my finger and the dial on the camera takes care of it ! They are neat and all but for portraits I don’t change the aperture hardly ever to even use the ring and for events and weddings it is to slow looking and trying to make sure I’m not hitting the lens ring and setting it properly!! I use my left hand for focus and zoom or holding the camera when in video ... so the ring doesn’t really work for me But no hate here again everyone is very different and that’s why there are different choices ! 😁 I used the 24mm GM recently and just hated that you had to have the lens in a certain aperture setting to adjust via the camera so if your using the lens ring your stuck with what is on there !! Some love some hate em 😂
I have Nikon 105 2.5 Ais myself and a mint quality one is harder to find at that price. I have used Sigma 105mm F1.4 , Sigma had better bokeh at F1.4. But when shooting at F2.5 Nikon stacks up well against the modern lens like Sigma. The weight difference is huge. But what stand out for the Nikon is great render, excellent colour reproduction and it is extremely sharp shooting at F2.5, there is a tiny bit of purple fringing.
Question about the lens, does it make a noise when using continuous focus on a stationary object via photo or video? Something like micro focusing sounds?
Mind if I ask how long it took you doing photography/videography/UA-cam to be able to upgrade to a lens like that and eat at the same time? Asking for a friend..........
Hey bro many UA-cam reviewers are either renting, borrowing from a friend or given a lens on loan by a manufacturer in exchange for the free publicity.
Quick question: The Sony a6600 does eye tracking in video mode. However, when I connect the camera to a monitor, the little square disappears. I want to know if the camera is still tracking my eye even if I don’t see the little square.
Hold on... Are you not getting the flickering issue when shooting 120p wide open at f/1.2? So far everyone else I've seen is getting flickering, even outside, in every Sony body.
Hm... in the sample shots in this video the bokeh looked pretty busy and sometimes even ugly, not really buttery smooth. I think I stick to my Sigma 35mm 1.4. Not worth the upgrade. ;)
Thumbs down for the silly aperture ring comment. Have your ever used a Sony before????? You control this with the dial.. No need to look at the buttons. All the aperture ring does is any keep moving when I don't need to which is annoying as hell
@@SidneyDiongzon It's nothing wrong with it I just feel like its marketed to define artist you all just sound the same "bokehlious" "creamy buttery smooth backgrounds" even Smart phones are on it. I feel you sound like a broken record. finding a great framing is amazing too thinking outside the box getting really creative that's effective as well not diss
The problem when everything is in slow motion to be "epic" nothing is really epic. You shoot weddings don't you? The constant "everything in slow motion all the time" makes that pretty obvious. Step outside your comfort zone and try not doing that.
@@SidneyDiongzon And you're THAT person who just says I'm "THIS" person. Address the point I'm making with a retort, don't simply try to insult WHO I am. Did I attack you as a person? Sidney, show some maturity and some backbone.
This and an A7sii would turn night in to day
What do YOU think of the Sigma 35mm f/1.2 Art lens??? Get the lens here: geni.us/hleKDVB

Josh totally would!!!
@@SidneyDiongzon on a Onewheel 😂
hahaha Amazing
...wait so don't put this on a Gimbal??
@@kindrickbrown2479 deal breaker for me 😞
You said that the Sigma 35mm f1.2 Art is one of your top 3 lenses. Which are the other 2?
Thanks Sidney. Photos looked real nice. That 1.2 is a good look.
Thanks man!
That beautiful tank lens puts out a fantastic image! Great video as always!
Thanks my dude!
Im still at Sigma “ Contemporary “ lenses looking forward for Art lens upgrade soon
Nice content
The Art lens series is on ANOTHER LEVEL!
As always, great content Sidney. I love the lens
Thanks Peter! I appreciate you!
Cool vid. Love the info. and the random side rants those are great, they make me laugh. Always good to see cool vids. Thx Sid
Thanks for watching! 🙏

It’s not large at all
It´s so satisfying to watch the close ups of the lens, i think its the best looking lens in the market right now :))
Looks like a pretty sweet lens. I bought a Sigma 56 1.4 a little while back for my Sony A6500. It’s a nice lens as well.
That’s a great lens too!
i have been eyeing the 24 1.4 !! great video !
You have been working hard to get to the 100k subs, I’m surprised your not there yet! Good luck! 🍀 You Irish Texas ex Californian man you!
Thank you Drew!

I love this lens! Bought it for $500 and don't regret it a second!
$500!??? Where???
@@SidneyDiongzon I traded one of my Sigma lenses in to the manufacturer for it. XD

It seems great. Just not for sure if I'm down for the constant barrel distortion.

Thanks dude! Sigma nailed it with their Art Lens series!
thanks the video i was searching for!
Glad this was helpful!
Try the Nikon 105 2.5 it is a pretty legendary lens you can find for 60 bucks on eBay . Produce one of the best bokeh ever made

Would love to know? Would be a deal breaker for video
1.2.💖💖 💐
Those kids are so cute. I wonder who the dad is 🤔 Oh yeah, nice lens.
Thanks for watching
Great review and I hope we get more fast lenses like this, but that bokeh swirl is making me dizzy >_< so I don't think I'll be choosing this lens.

Hello please
Can i use it for vlog ?
Can you review the voigtlander Ultron 21mm f/1.8 VM using an adaptor for mirrorless?
Nice review! When you set focus area to center do you mean you focus and recompose for every shot?
Yes
What about some vintage lens?
Yesss!!! Let me know which ones!!
Sidney Diongzon or maybe the soon to release Meyer Optik Görlitz Trioplan 100 f2.8 II
Quick question: The Sony a6600 does eye tracking in video mode. However, when I connect the camera to a monitor, the little square disappears. I want to know if the camera is still tracking my eye even if I don’t see the little square.
Yesss!!!
Hello, Is it possible to put this(Sigma 35mm 1.2) on Moza aircross 2 with Sony Full frame cameras. Thanks
Hold on... Are you not getting the flickering issue when shooting 120p wide open at f/1.2? So far everyone else I've seen is getting flickering, even outside, in every Sony body.
I have this lens☺️☺️
Love it!
Yeah??? How long have you had it??
About a month or so. Bought it a day after Christmas...::))
Can you do a comparison with the g master 24mm f1.4?
Maybe.... 😎
@@SidneyDiongzon which one is better?
AllPink i think the purpose of the lens is very different. this 35 mm is kinda all around fix lens. while the 24mm is totally landscape.
to solve the lens roll issue just hide 1 grain of rice under it ^_^
This lens ro 40 sigma art 1.4 the best?
Can't decide between sigma 50mm vs 35mm for full length body shot, plz help 😢
Get the 50
For me 35mm and 85mm combo is the best, but it's only for me
Want.
Hm... in the sample shots in this video the bokeh looked pretty busy and sometimes even ugly, not really buttery smooth. I think I stick to my Sigma 35mm 1.4. Not worth the upgrade. ;)
What do you reckon is the better out of the 35mm sigma 1.2, 1.4 or the sony 1.8?
The 1.2 is the best 35mm on the market. The only close one is the new Tamron 1.4. the Sigma is on a wholr new level above the Sony
Do you find the focus ring being bad when pulling focus manually? Some say it is really bad and unprecise?
how is the autofocus/face detect ?
Great!
Changli-ooyy!! Hohoho
Haha, woooo!! Thanks for watching!
Would you recommend putting this on a Gimbal and shooting music/promo videos with it???
Thumbs down for the silly aperture ring comment. Have your ever used a Sony before????? You control this with the dial.. No need to look at the buttons. All the aperture ring does is any keep moving when I don't need to which is annoying as hell
Since you’re an expert, I took a look at your videos... 🤮
His statement was rude but low key vaild but ur response was epic 😂😂🔥
Autofocus miss f1.2
vintage lens
Can someone count how many times this guy says f1.2 f1.4
Someone wants to sell that lens in $600 in good condition is in good price?
Try the Sigma Art 24-70mm f2.8 next
OoOoOo! Maybe! Although, that lens is WAYYYY heavier IRL
F1.1
That’s a crazy aperture!
S for S!
Woooooo!
The price is pretty cheap for 1.2 ...
This 1.2 has a swirly bokeh reminiscent of zeiss
Want a camera with your lens? 😐😐
Everyone shoots so wide open where is the imagination
Why not?
