Sirui Sniper 16 & 75 f/1.2: A Budget Filmmaker's Must-Have?

[@disclosureproductions]

I love those lens with the FX30, because they are perfectly breaking the too much FX30 sharpiness. I truly have the feeling of having a FX3 with those lenses on my FX30

Very new to your channel as well as photography/videography!! Purchased a Sony a6700 camera last April and have been using a kit lens. Over the past few months I’ve been looking into Sirui’s products due to their affordability, as I have been saving money. GREAT REVIEW! I am still learning so much about how to use this camera and I think this is the perfect first set to purchase and practice with! One more sub for you sir 🙏🏽 good looks ‼️

[@BenGleasonMedia]

That will be such as awesome combo!! Thanks for watching 🙌

If this lens was £100 more than Yongnuo 16mm 1.8. Which would you get? Is this worth the extra price for low light recording (KZbin videos) for this lens?

[@Thatboytwann]

So would u take the shirui 16mm 1.2 over another budget lens like the yongnuo 16mm 1.8

[@BenGleasonMedia]

Personally, yes I would!

[@BARFMEDIA]

budget not being an issue, would you pick this 16mm sirui or a 20mm 1.8 sony? i know it's a full frame lens. i'm deciding which of the two to get.

[@BenGleasonMedia]

The 20mm is a really great lens! But the 16 is great, I think if you plan to shoot full frame then get the 20mm

[@BARFMEDIA]

do you have a video going over your color grading process?

[@BenGleasonMedia]

Yes I do! Check it out kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGmke4Sbl7Jrjdksi=muZl4Zm_0gaKIFhn

[@scienceinfo7229]

Does this lens compatible with the focus breathing setting of sony cameras?

[@BenGleasonMedia]

No they are not

[@daveyjones830]

what lens did you use to shoot the scenes of you showing the lenses in your hands? 🤔

[@BenGleasonMedia]

Are you referring to the shots in the studio on the table? or the shots of the sirui lenses on my camera outside?

[@daveyjones830]

@@BenGleasonMedia on the table my good sir

[@BenGleasonMedia]

@daveyjones830 gotcha! I Used the Tamron 20-40 with my Sony A7IV, I do have a moment Cinebloom filter on it, which is why it may seem kind of soft 😅

[@daveyjones830]

@@BenGleasonMedia i’m taking notes brother! thank you for your thorough answer man it helps and is appreciated immensely

I'm desperately looking for a portrait lens that has good autofocus and can be useful in low light for an event I'll need to cover in a month, I don't have enough money for the Sony 85mm GM, is this my best option?

[@BenGleasonMedia]

There are lots of different lenses you could take a look at! The 75mm is definitely a great lens, but keep in mind it is an APS-C lens. So if you are shooting full frame it won’t cover the whole sensor. A couple great Budget 85mm options, in my opinion, is the Viltrox 85mm f1.8, and the Sony 85mm f1.8 both of those lenses cover full frame and are $600 USD or less! Hope that helps! 👍

[@huzainijai1184]

I own Tamron 17-70 F2.8 & 7Artisan 35mm F1.4. is it worth selling to exchange Sirui Sniper 16 & 75? I fall in love with 7Artisan 35mm. it's cheap yet it just have a character than tamron one huhu. i also do photography and video depend on the mood.

[@BenGleasonMedia]

It's honestly up to you! Those lenses you have are really awesome and provide some pretty different options compared to these lenses.

[@greentix4847]

Can I use these with the sony a6400?

[@BenGleasonMedia]

Absolutely! 👍

[@global001]

You contradict what you say in the body & conclusion of the video regarding sharpness. In the conclusion you say if you want sharpness buy them but in the body you say they're not sharp as they're cheap. Which is it? Can't trust this review.

[@BenGleasonMedia]

Totally understand! They are not as sharp at f1.2 or the lower apertures but at f4 and more they are sharp enough but not as sharp as more expensive lenses. I misspoke at the end! Still great lenses though

[@aaronmoe12]

Its hard to trust a sponsored review. But i understand you need to be compensated, making videos take time.

[@BenGleasonMedia]

Although the lenses were sent to me, I was NOT paid to say anything! I was 1000000% honest In my review! I would have absolutely purchased these lenses myself had sirui not sent them

[@mallorythomas4889]

He literally says it’s not sponsored? Just that the product was sent to him to review? I’m confused
