Good review! Thanks.

[@ebonea1189]

Hi will You do test of this glass on APSC sensor ? like A6700 ?

[@Hobbies4Hire]

Great job on the video! Thanks for making it.

[@thaticelandicguy]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@portraitsoflapland7635]

Hahahahaha så många gånger jag skrattade! Så kul att se vad du tyckte om den 👌 Kan inte annat än hålla med!

[@ulisesgonzalezzuniga7550]

Love the video! As an apsc user and having no equivalent to it, I'd like to see you, if possible, just make a few remarks on how it handles and performs on apsc bodies. Loving the content, anways buddy. Keep it up!

[@thaticelandicguy]

It would be fun to test it for sure 😊 thank you btw!

[@dantediss1]

just started looking at this lens, and in my opinion so far , if the biggest cons is a harder to deal with mount and weird lens hood BUT you are saving A LOT of Money .... i think i could live with it. especially considering the Sigma mount is Arca whereas the Sony is Not, and requires even more money to purchase the adapter.

[@Teddword.]

What lens should I buy for my a6700

[@quirkworks4076]

As a Sony APS-C shooter with the Tamron 35-150 who doesn’t shoot wildlife or sports, I’m all set, but Sigma has been killing it lately!

[@thaticelandicguy]

Sigma really has been killing it lately 🔥 I just tested the 10-18 f2.8 for apsc and it’s siiiiick 👀

[@nelsonngu]

I have wanting to have a 70-200mm f2.8 focal for a longgggggg time. I just could not afford the sony version, I know their MKII is the best in the market but I am not a production job, I am just using it as a hobbyist and travel but the weight for this lens to travel it's a killer when I look at the spread sheet. Also is this lens compatible with the telephoto converter?

[@Bryanschuurmans]

I would like to see a comparison between this lens and the Canon 70-200 II or III. What would you prefer?

[@tom.masoz3]

currently, I have the Sony 70-300 G lens. would you recommend a replacement, meaning selling my lens and getting this one (Sigma 70-200), or should I stick with what I have and add this lens to my gear? Or, ultimately, should I just stick with my 70-300 and call it a day?

[@dainesefreak]

Depends on whether you need the reach of the 70-300? If you don't the Sigma will give you nicer images for sure.

[@sbaluba]

would you tell me the distance from the subject in this shot? 0:37

[@billyblioumis]

I see no test for focus breathing. how is it?

[@christiangidlow]

Really nice Lens ! might consider upgrade my old sigma! :)

[@thaticelandicguy]

It's really really nice indeed :)

[@yuban97]

06:50 My lens also does that noise. I hope its not defective.

[@damianwojcikiewicz3951]

For street photography you pick 35mm or 85mm?

[@thaticelandicguy]

Just depends it’s like asking what’s better oranges or banana?

[@damianwojcikiewicz3951]

@@thaticelandicguy there are some photographers who say one lens is really good - with 85mm you can shoot natural photos and even if the subject cannot fit in the frame then we can hold our camera horizontally. I think 50 mm as a main lens is not a good deal. Better to have two - 35mm and 85mm if someone doesn't have enough money for three. It's like a balance.

[@scottcampbell9479]

​​@@thaticelandicguydefinitely banana

[@IntrovertAmateur]

Haha, you have to catch them all - these bokeh balls 😂 Nice preview as always my friend :) To be honest the 70-200mm zoom is something I a lot on social media I often want to buy one because of that, but since I know my shooting situations, I can resist the purchase at least for this one :D I'm curious, if Sigma will update the 24-70 2.8 Art to version II with this 70-200 tech. But if I advance on my skills maybe in the future :D

[@thaticelandicguy]

Thank you 😂 and yea we need to catch them all lol. I love the 70-200 lens I own the Sony and it’s great😊

[@brandonabbott69]

Good lens 👍

[@thaticelandicguy]

it really is!

[@deejaypile]

When you're filming 99% of the time you're not going to change aperture mid-shot anyway

[@SomvanndaKong]

Are you shooting with Sony A7IV?

[@thaticelandicguy]

yea :)

[@deejaypile]

Have a couple colleagues who broke their Sony lens caps lol

[@DjimmyTrovy]

I don't want to sound weird but your beard is amazing.

[@thaticelandicguy]

Thank you I really appreciate that 😊🤘🏻

[@thaticelandicguy]

What's your thoughts on this lens? 🤔

[@felipemiranda6382]

I want it. But have no money for

[@Hagen1979]

It’s in my wish list.

[@jbmedia8882]

I have the 20, 35, 85, 135 and 70-200 sigmas. I saved like 10,000 bucks. 😅

[@khoahuynh6884]

buying all of them prime GMs with the 70-200 mark II brandnew is not even 10k.

[@jeroenvdw]

I just wish Sigma would care a bit about the weight of their lenses. 30% more weight than the Sony, it adds up for every lens.

[@fabian_99]

matte black* love iceland btw been there 2 times

[@thaticelandicguy]

Oh nooo I forgot the e 😂

[@VitValentaEnglish]
