Know this is an older video but I bought the Batis in 2015 which was two years ahead of the Sony 85/1.8. As simple as that. Bought the Sony 85/1.4 GM in late 2016. Again before the f/1.8 was available since 85mm was a key focal length to me after owning the Canon EF 85mm f/1.2 L II. Now also own the Canon RF 85mm f/1.2L. Waiting on Sony for an f/1.2 as well. Thank you and take care.

Very useful video thankyou , as a sony A1 shooter I am looking at purchasing this bit of kit . I currently use a RODE external mic in the hotshoe of the camera when recording . If I buy the Ninga five would the rode mic go into the Ninja or still in the camera for best results ? secondly can you recommend any cold shoe adaptors to connect both the Ninja and the External Mic ?

The 3D pop on the Zeiss is just insane. I don't get why people aren't aware of this phenomenon. We should all be demanding the big manufacturers (but Sony at the very least) to take notes from Zeiss and prioritize this over clinical sharpness. But it won't happen because very few talk about this and so it's not the metric manufacturers optimize for anymore save for Zeiss, sigh.

If you want to impress your friends with spec sheets, buy gm master, if you want to impress them with photos, choose the Batis. Preferred the Bohka on the Batis and the contrast range. I used to hunger the low F numbers once, until I realised most of my shots were somewhere in the middle of the range anyway, rarely do you have a subject that looks better with a low depth of field. For new guys, save your money and avoid the F1.2, F1.4 etc, nothing wrong with going F2 lens or above with a decent modern camera. Boy, that GM lens to me looks ugly as sin next to the Batis, looks like forest gumps light saber.

Right now the A7S III with Atomos Ninja V used are WAY cheaper than the FX3. Good luck finding a cheap FX3 or FX30. B&H Photo is your best bet. We need more cameras like the Sigma FP that can record directly to USB drives. The big brands like Sony are trying to protect their cinema camera lines.when they should be pivoting their business to what customers need, not protecting a dying line of overpriced cinema cameras. Sometimes you have to stop trying to maximize profits to be competitive.

Little bit after a year purchasing a brand new smallrig VB99, USB-C connector has some slack, which causes loss of electrical signal, leading to power interruptions during charging through this port. I believe it requires opening up the VB99 and soldering a new USB-C port. How should I proceed? Have you ever had to open a VB99?

Whether it's the best is debatable. The problem with this lens (and more so with the new 10mm) is that it produces an image that makes the space look too... spacious. Wouldn't your work be better served with a 17 and 24 TS-E?

I think they are both great for different case uses especially if you’re able to have both. Zeiss being more of a travel friendly lens great for street/documentary photography and landscape work while the g master is better for studio work, portraiture as well as landscapes for those who do it professionally

So glad i stumbled upon this review. I'm currently building my real esrate photography business and have been looking into the sony 12-24mm f4 and f2.8. Although they seem like great options, the f4 just dodgy get me excited, and the f2.8 made my wallet cringe. This seems like a good option to go with and now makes it so i can go w with the Sony PZ 16-35mm f4 I've been wanting instead. Thanks again
