Magnificent Sigma Contemporary DG DN Prime Lenses! 24mm f/3.5, 35mm f/2, 65mm f/2 - Sony E & Leica L

[@sigmaphoto]

Glad you enjoyed trying out the new lenses! We're excited to see them in the hands of all those E-mount and L-mount shooters out there. :)

Hi, make a mirrorless 70-200mm f/2.8 please. Thanks!

[@budapest233]

@@TheHeartofuae Send someone who can beat the laws of physics over to Sigma then ;) Wide and fast for full frame simply can not be small and lightweight... That being said, if you can live with 2.8 and plastic body, check out the Samyang 24, it is quite good, although not as sharp as the Sigma.

Dont know if you guys gives a shit but if you guys are stoned like me atm you can watch pretty much all the new movies on instaflixxer. I've been streaming with my gf for the last couple of weeks =)

[@emanuelmekhi2458]

@Jason Miles Yea, have been watching on InstaFlixxer for years myself :D

[@musar03580]

@@shang-hsienyang1284 SIGMA has done it. It is in their Sports line of lenses.

Thank you for your video - I was really betwixt and between in getting a less bulky lens for walking around. I wanted a 35 to 40 mm lens and had handled this in a shop and really liked it. Friends kept suggesting others, both more expensive and less. Your night shots with the Sigma 35 f2.0 did it for me.

[@EarlofGray]

Thank you for the excellent first review of these new lenses. It is very heartening to see both Sigma and Panasonic Lumix releasing more affordable lenses in L mount format. I bought a used Leica SL to try out, as I was starting to have trouble focussing manually on my M2, M6, M9 and M(240) cameras, and absolutely love the SL. So far I have only been using my manual focus M mount lenses on the SL, but I think this defeats the point a bit! The Leica lenses and Sigma Art lenses are so big and heavy, so I think it is now time to sell the M mount cameras and lenses and buy into the smaller and more affordable Panasonic and Sigma L mount lenses.

Great review. I have the 65 and 90mm and love them

[@PartisanZoya1941]

Thanks for this review . In 2024 I'm torn between two Sigma DG DN 35 mm lenses for the L mount. The f 1.4 and this f 2.

[@oudjunk]

I bought this series for my Leica SL as well but it’s not lenses that you reviewed. I bought Sigma 20mm f2 I really like it

[@spillogic]

Curious to know how the 65mm performs compared to the APO LANTHAR by CV

[@dfj555]

How does the 65mm lens compare with your Leica lenses?

[@zenjitsuman]

A thought, on an APSC camera like a Leica CL its about a 100mm f2 portrait lens

[@tomreese2285]

Great review! I'm grabbing one for my new Leica SL2-S. The backlit sensor on the camera is a low light beast so F2 should be great. Love shooting in Flagstaff!

[@jorgeperellobonus5214]

Yo tengo una leica cl....se puede usar ?gracias

[@Bryan-lu4du]

Very solid lenses. Wouldn’t mind having either for my SL2. I think the 65mm is interesting, the time lapse makes it seem particularly useful for landscape style shots.

[@keithpeeples3565]

Sigma created a great lens with this design. All metal, a real Aperture ring, but no depth of field scale. They were so close. I think the old manual focus Nikkor 24mm and 28mm were a landscape photographer's greatest tools. A glance at the depth of field scale and you knew that flower 3 feet from your lens and the distant mountain were all in focus. We need a lens like that specifically for the digital landscape photographer. Also isn't that depth of field scale on the Leica Q2 just wonderful? Hmm.

[@randolphcroft4212]

Thanks! I have the 35 f/1.2 for my a9/a7r3 but didn't want to buy a straight duplicate for my SL2; 93% likely to get that 35 f/2! (I do have the 45 f/2.8 already and am pleased with it.)

[@RichardBO9]

Thanks for the review! The "bonus time-lapse" was awesome. 🤠

[@DidierMOULINPhotography]

Hello. Thanks for your courage to go out freezing to test them... But at 5:24 I see the oval shape of the bokeh bubbles and this signs the end of the video for me. Thanks anyhow

[@fellowcitizen]

Definitely complementary to the Leica cameras. + I agree about the focal lengths being friendly across FF and APS-C.

[@jesperwahlstedt7427]

Thanks for the review! Can you use back button focus on the leica sl2 with these lenses?

[@siqiaoxie1256]

Thanks for the awesome review! How do you like the 35 comparing to Sony's 35 1.8?

[@carltanner9065]

Now, to make them for other camera mounts as well!!! The piccie of the ice cream sign you took has made me hungry!!! :D Might go crack that barrel of ice cream I have in the fridge :D

[@ariellouiseong2247]

Looks like Flagstaff, AZ

[@cesarm8811]

Hi Leigh, since I don't own either the Sony or Lecia camera's this video doesn't apply to me (Nikon user). But I really enjoy your channel. Stay safe....

[@PVCLime]

Regarding usability, is the aperture ring mechanical or electric? How is the focus ring? Mechanical or electric? If so is it progressive? Does the focus ring have hard stops? Can you change focus and aperture on the lens when you have it in your hands, not connected to the camera?

[@hi.imgonner5813]

sounds like tamron, canon and sigma have a f2 budget lens war on their hands.

[@hishamosman4341]

Pls .pls do for Nikon z mount

[@Mike_M_Smith]

Why is the 24mm so slow?

[@tamilhoward9708]

given the high iso capabilities of today's cameras is f3.5 slow?

[@Mike_M_Smith]

@@tamilhoward9708 it is slow. One I might want limited depth of field or I want to shot at the cameras base ISO. Raising ISO always increases noise.

[@garybrown9719]

I would have preferred a 85mm

[@bhatigaurav]

I am sorry - this seemed more like paid promotion for sigma and less like a legit review. You dont have to do charts or brick wall test, but some diligence and actual testing would go a long way

[@AR-scorp]

Used the 65mm... overpriced distortion magnate.

[@JamesClark1991]

Terrible review.
