Is This BUDGET AF Lens Any Good Even // 7artisans 50mm F1.8 on Sony A7IV

[@TomsJurjaks]

Good? Affordable? Too Big? Would you consider getting it over Sony’s nifty fifty?

[@Lars_Olsen]

Love these videos you do mate! Keep them coming 😊 Also I got a notification for this video hopefully KZbin has fixed itself 😁

[@TomsJurjaks]

So glad you like em Lars. And KZbin must have read our conversation hahah Cheers buddy and watch out for the next video, its gonna be interesting 😎

[@Lars_Olsen]

@@TomsJurjaks can't wait!!! 😁

[@Iamtongue]

awesome video dude haha!

[@TomsJurjaks]

Couldn’t be done without your amazing help haha thank you as always buddy 💪

[@Frosty_43]

Nothing like an amazing video in the morning

[@TomsJurjaks]

Well I am glad you had fun watching it. I made months ago but was able to release it only now and it had to be the untypical 9am time. Maybe I should switch to mornings instead of afternoons? 😯😀

[@Frosty_43]

@@TomsJurjaks Both is fine, I was just taken by surprise when it came out in the morning 😅

[@Herbridge]

Very honest review

[@iosebaart]

Interesting video! would this work on an APSC like the a6400?

[@TomsJurjaks]

Thanks! Yes, all full frame lenses work on APSC cameras. The only difference is the focal length. 50mm would be more like an 80mm due to cropped sensor

[@V8vigilantie]

I believe sigma lenses are the best bang for the buck cause they are really high quality too. Nice video tho ❤❤

[@TomsJurjaks]

I agree. Sigma lenses are my absolute favorite ones. Price/performance is unmatched

[@pentagramyt417]

For sure better than any other 50 mm f1.8 on the market right now or at least TOP2, and better than Sony one. Sony need to update their old lenses in that case. Sony could keep their 50 mm 1.8 in peace for a while, though this lens need an update, but now they are FORCED to update that one, because they won't be sold that much when competitors don't sleep and bring twice much quality for the same price.

[@TomsJurjaks]

Sony is soooo much behind with the upgrade of their nifty fifty. Problem is, I think it’s sales results are still strong. Total beginners won’t know any other 50mm and will just buy Sony’s because its Sony… but lets see, maybe Sony will surprise us

[@thanhanle3879]

@@TomsJurjaksagreed cuz the nifty fifty is often came along with the body as a starter lens. But yeah for 120$ used it's still have a decent quality tho 🤔

[@pentagramyt417]

@@TomsJurjaks "and will just buy Sony’s because its Sony…" to the point. :) ✋✋

[@brianwalton2602]

Seems like your "soft" photos with the Sony are either a lens problem or below the min focus distance. My Sony 50 isn't the sharpest 50 I have, but it certainly isn't as soft as a kitten like your example photos were.

[@TomsJurjaks]

Good to know. Might be a poor copy then. Ive taken plenty of photos also in a further distance and have been disappointed with the quality. Another thing is that my AF is really bad with it, but I heard the firmware update helps

[@AE-cu5zy]

Would you recommend this lens for the ZV-E10?

[@TomsJurjaks]

I would not. This is a full frame lens. I would rather suggest the Sigma 56mm f1.4

[@keybud_jlm]

Would you recommend it if I can get it for $135 brand new?

[@TomsJurjaks]

For that price - yeah. It will do its job

[@keybud_jlm]

@@TomsJurjaks thank you!

[@yr-mallah]

Hello What do you advise me 7artisans or Sony (50mm1.8)

[@TomsJurjaks]

Neither. Better save up a little more and get something else. Viltrox is a good budget option if you don't have enough for Sigma

[@paperchaser159]

Bro was recording a dog running all over the living room and complained about auto focus.

[@TomsJurjaks]

Yup and my other lenses keep up with that. Also there was a loooong moment when the dog was just laying down, chilling and the lens was not able to focus on his eye for good 30 seconds. Im sorry but thats not normal.

[@Original_Pepe_Pupu]

What’s with the annoying, distractive finger-clicks throughout the audio track?

[@TomsJurjaks]

Not sure what you are referring to? Definitely wasn’t me snapping fingers 🫣

[@frankfeng2701]

Too big for 50 1.8. E mount really needs some nifty "pancake/cupcake" primes.

[@TomsJurjaks]

I agree ☝️

[@JACKnJESUS]

Heh...almost as big as a Nikon...(kidding...sort of)

[@TomsJurjaks]

Man, this really is a chunky boy, especially for f1.8. Smaller lenses have been seen for sure
