It is hard to choose 24-35 f2 because the 18-35 exist. For video you can use 18-35 as 28-35 f1.8 on full frame. And for photo you can use as 35mm f1.8 prime. Because of the versatility, it is hard to buy another lens that the usage is so similar to 18-35. I would suggest for full frame user get your standard 24-70 f2.8 and pair with several f1.4 prime. Usually my go to is 24-70 f2.8 and 50mm f1.4.

However, the old 17-50 EX DC OS HSM has been my most reliable for years irrespective of DSLR/mirrorless or Canon/Fuji. My next event though, I will probably do my usual 2 body setup with a prime only 22mm f2 and a 35mm f1.4 and a 50mm f1.4.

Good video and interesting comparison of Sigma lenses. I can only speak to the 18-35mm F1.8, as I own it. I use it exclusively on my Canon M50 with EF-M adapter. It does a wonderful job with video and is capable of spectacular still photos. The key word here, is capable. When it's on, it's on. However, I get inconsistent results with this lens with no logical reason for the inconsistency. Sometimes I get photos that acquire focus to drool over. Still, other times, it's like I placed a soft focus filter on the lens and it's a big let down. Nevertheless, when hiking, this is my go to lens for flexibility and MOSTLY sharp photos. At the same time, it always does a good job on video. Many thanks for taking the time to compare these four Sigma lenses, showing your results with same. Always enjoy your take on the given subject matter.

When I bought my GH5 a year and a half ago, I insisted I needed that 18-35. Its a great lens but don't use it as much because of its weight. I got a little used to the lighter m43 lens and since have gotten the Sig 16mm for emergency run and gun low light because it is lighter and easier to carry in my standard bag. But I'll never get rid of the 18-35, I use it on preplained low light gigs where I would rather have that zoom.

@@chrisklugh Yea I got similar experiences with the same combo. Also since I had gh4 before so I bought speedbooster xl for it and with the gh5 the 18-35 vignetting is too bad so it leaves out the wider focal lenghts. I am looking forward to the panasonic 10-25mm f 1.7, it gives a bit less light than the speedbooster combo, but native is always nicer to have and they finally gave an option to not go fly by wire focus so that's great. The only thing not so great about it is the price and ofc it could turn out to be dud image wise but the reviews will tell.

@@cmxpiipl Ya, that's an interesting lens. I doubt it will be a dud, the IQ will probably be similar to their 2.8 zoom lens. I'm sure the Sig will be sharper wide open though. But for those that have the Sig, I think it will be a hard sell to get this new one. The price is a little steep to justify when you have a legend in hand. But if they came out with a 25-50(?) f1.7 to pair with it, for those that could afford both, I see that being a good replacement set for the f2.8 lens.

@The-Logician5 жыл бұрын
In regards to the ability to adjust the speedbooster to make the Sigma 18-35 parfocal, I think this may only work with the 0.71 ultra. I tried to make the same adjustments on my (MFT GH5) speedbooster but I have the XL 0.64x version. I would focus on an object at 35mm, and then zoom out. Instead of having to rotate it clockwise (as if the focus was drifting to the background when zooming out) mine would always focus drift to the foreground. This could only be improved by rotating my rear element counterclockwise and I took it as far as it would go without breaking it (which I almost did) I had to crank pretty hard on the rear element to get it to go as far as it did, and it was still not enough to make my 18-35 parfocal. On the brighter side, I think the adjustment was enough to get my Canon 70-200 to focus to infinity when zoomed all the way in to 200mm, something that was giving me problems before. ( I have to wait until it's daylight outside to really test it).

Should I be taking manual lenses(Rokinon/Samyang) or native Sony(or Sigma ART) lenses? This dilemma arouse from an uncertainty of whether I would stick to Sony in the future or change my body brand for an upgrade. Taking a manual lens would make me carry the glass for ages, which the native mostly would not. What do you best suggest? You could either answer, or probably make a video about it =) !

Hey Gerald Undone, I don't know if anyone has already commented this, but you actually cannot make the 18-35 parfocal. It doesn't have the right floating elements to do that. You can adjust backfocus to get infinity, but parfocality isn't possible. THAT SAID, there is variation between copies of lenses, especially photography lenses like the 18-35, so if you can get yours to close to parfocal then that's great. Mine won't. Not even close.

My only problem with it (and this was cos I had canon lenses too) was it was very cold and more magenta than my canon glass. It's also way sharper of a lens than I like. I ended up breaking it and then had an excuse to pick up the excellent 24mm 1.4 ii canon. Which for the money isn't probably worth it.

mr undone! what should i do?? i ordered the tamron 17-28 for sony E mount. but i feel like 17 isnt wide enough. not that i shoot wide all that often, but i still do from time to time. i had the 16-35 f4 and the 16mm end didnt feel wide enough. im pretty sure id end up doing something stupid like buying an ultra wide lens, and not use it all that much. so despite the fact that i've been pleased with tamrons 28-75 and based on reviews, it seems like the 17-28 is about as good, and the price of it is hard to beat, i'm considering cancelling the order and getting the sigma 14-24 f2.8 instead. on its own, the sigma costs ~$500m more than the tamron, but like i said ill end up buying another wider lens, because... reasons. also im an idiot. the tamron+ilaowa 10-18 (which is TOO wide) would end up costing a little more than the sony 12-24 f4, which is another lens i considered. i think i should get the sigma, its the best compromise, no? its not as wide as the sony, but id get 3mm on the wide end over the tamron, and even though everyone says you dont necessarily need you wide angle lenses to be that fast... i think id rather keep the extra stop of light instead of getting overly greedy with the more range on the wide end. thanks for your help! i'll make sure to press the dislike button 3(?) times? :D ok.. apparently i cant math... i meant to say ill hit the dislike button 5 times! you the GOAT of camera stuff on YT. you deserve it. ;P

Looking to buy a couple of Sigma lenses for the SONY, Do you like the 16mm f1.4? Looking at possibly that and the 18-35 to add to SONY lenses.

Are you sure the one on the left wins sharpness? It looks so much more blurry (exaggerating) than the right.

You're video is awesome: I love the characteristics break down and competition and how thorough you were! As a tip, I'd say you could relax a bit and allow more humor in. I've never seen a filmmaker go into such details in a comparison, though; which I found super helpful - thanks! 😄

Hi! tell me pls) Im use 18-35 with metabones 0.71 and gh5 , its a realy great setup, but sometimes i need more long lens. How much the quality/sharpen/color will deteriorate with sigma 24-70? (if i use both lens on maximally open aperture (1.4 and 2.0 with booster)

Hi Gerald! what camera and lens are you using to film yourself in this video?

Valuable tests, thanks! Let's see that ART28! (or 35mmF1.2...) +Just putting a word in for the black panther of the~24~35 family, the ART24-70mmF2.8 Kazuko mentioned that the priority for this lens was beautiful rendering and bokeh. Although dissed for not being the sharpest 24-70 available, it is still extremely sharp at most focal lengths; it just suffered from high expectations and the latest rival versions exceeding it in one way or another (also perhaps some FW issues with OIS early on.) I'm guessing that they presumed that one would go for primes or those signature bright zooms if seeking quantitative perfection.

If you use the 18-35 for Cinemascope (using black bars), it becomes almost (because of some heavy distorsion) a good 24-35 in FF. Anyway, I'm also using it for photography, so after watching this I'm definitely switching to the 24-35 f2. I didn't want to let the 18-35 go after all these years, but knowing that the differences aren't big, I have no doubt about it. Thank you!

I don't understand English but I can translate, from what I observed in your tests 18-35mm is the best lens in sharpness, it has the best color gamut, is it better than 24-35?

Excellent and thorough video Gerald. Regardless the results, Sigma has been killing it since the introduction of Art lenses. It would be great to see some episodes comparing Sigma with first-party lenses. Also, I second a 50-100mm review, maybe vs 50mm, 85mm and 70-200 (from Canon and Nikon).

Great video. I currently have the Pana-Leica 12-60mm f2.8 that I kept from my GH5, and now using it on my BMPCC4K. So, would you still recommend I pick up the Sigma 18-35?
@geraldundone5 жыл бұрын
Yes, but you'll need a speed booster, so factor that into the budget as well. After the 0.71x reduction is applied, you'll end up with 13-25mm f/1.3. Much better for darker scenes, just not as long as the 12-60mm. And you'll get mechanical focusing, which is easier to pull than the electronic stuff.
