The Samyang 135mm 1.8 is amazing. I've had it for 2-3 months and I'm in love with it.

[@2000sidhupunjab]

Samyang 135 is a phenomenal lens, it renders even smoother than GM. I also love Samyang FE 24 F1.8 AF, it's tiny and renders beautiful images.

Thank you for yet another great video, as always! I have the Tamron 28-200 and couldn't resist the Tamron 50-400 when it came out. I love them both. Even if I tend to use the 50-400 more than the 28-200, the latter is the on i brought when I went hiking for a couple of weeks last month. I wanted to bring a single lens into the mountains and I knew the 28-200 would get the job done. Super versatile, sharp, small and lightweight.

[@StefanMalloch]

Great choices!

[@stevenwaldstein2249]

Thank you for presenting some very good alternatives to the Sony lenses available. Take care.

[@ericphilpott9468]

Great review, Stefan! I didn’t know about the Samyang 135 - looks like a great lens

[@ecitizenmichael]

Thanks for the great reviews Stefan. For value, I would swap the Tamron 35-150 with the Samyang 35-150 version and save $500. My bonus buy would be the Samyang 35mm 1.8. It's a great walkaround lens, perfect for professional work too and just $300!

[@StefanMalloch]

I haven't been able to get my hands on that one yet to compare them. Looking forward to it!

[@bartjes2509]

Thanks for sharing ! I have the Viltrox 16mm, 28-200 and recently the 50-400. I wish the VC (Vibration Compensation) of the 50-400 was a little better though. I can certainly recommend the 28-200 for sure. It's inexpensive, small, light and has a very versatile zoomrange. I've taken such sharp images with that lens.

I went and purchased my 4th samyang lens the 135mm f1.8 AF. I had great success with my other lenses the 35 and 85 mm F1.4 version one in 15 mm F1.4 version two. And when I got the new 135 mm I was really disappointed with it not hitting the focus. Maybe getting 2 out 10 photos in focus. I bought it so I could have a back up to my 135 mm GM that I use for all my racing photos plus a use it for 80% of my senior portraits. And it was the first time I had any issues with a Samyang lense. I sent it back and didn’t try another copy and I wish I would have. It won’t discourage me from buying any more of their lenses because they have some great auto focus lenses for the Sony cameras.

[@zachmerritt4668]

Sorry to hear that! I’ve had my Samyang 135 for about 5 months now and haven’t experienced any AF issues with my copy. It’s worth giving it another shot.

[@StefanMalloch]

Yes sorry to hear indeed. Unlucky!

[@LMActionsports]

@@zachmerritt4668 yeah I think I'm going to give it another try. On Amazon Prime day they had it for $500 and some dollars. When I bought it I paid $800 and some dollars plus tax it was close to 900$. I put my $135 mm GM through some rough conditions at the dirt bike and ATV races with rain mud you name it that lens has gone through a torture test. But I also use it for portraits so I'm like a Boy Scout be prepared so I like having a backup. And when I had the samyang version when it did hit it was a great photo. I bought the docking station and updated the firmware as soon I got it while updating the rest of my lenses. Yeah I got nothing against samyang they have the best performance to Dollar lenses out there

[@PaulFeinberg]

Great breakdown as always!

[@zachmerritt4668]

I’d also add the Samyang 75mm f1.8 as a great budget portrait lens. Tiny, light, sharp IQ! All for

[@tysao2.0]

I only have two lens. Sigma 50mm art f1.4 gd dn, and samyang 35-150mm f2-2.8. Haven't desided what wider lens I want but for now I don't really need one.

[@rafaafeitos]

Best selection ever

[@chriswittstruck282]

nice vid thanks! Subbed.

[@VeeTravels]

It is interesting that all of the lenses that you selected for this video are third party. I guess they will always be a much better bang for buck.

[@AjaySingh-228]

Looks cool bro

[@hardikpatel1598]

Love ur review

[@letsilluminatihd9987]

Why the Tamron 50-400, the Sigma 100-400 is sharper and cheaper and even beats the 2000 Sony Lense which the Tamron definitely does not

[@bobdrawbaugh4207]

My friend just picked up the Samyang 35-150 for $1000. I think Tamron is going to have to come off their $1900 price point.

[@veselinvasilev9362]

Thanks!

[@infiveg]

00:04 Я вижу Sony 16-35/4 Почему вы не рассказали про него? Очень полезное и классное видео 👍👍 Спасибо больше.

[@prozekutor]

Same video for aps-c 🙌🏻

[@DA-yd2ny]

👍👍

[@Lifinglifeibrahim]

For 550 $ you can get zeiss batis 18 mm used way better than viltrox

[@StefanMalloch]

25mm and 16mm are not even close tho..

[@Lifinglifeibrahim]

@@StefanMalloch sorry I meant zeiss batis 18 mm

[@TVe200]

I own 8 lenses (4 Sony and 4 Sigma) for Sony full frame, and none of the lenses you recommended 😉

[@roninthegoat2810]

Great for you 🤦🏻‍♂️
