The 11 and 15mm could be pretty fantastic for astrophotography. Fast maximum aperture, sharp wide open and that at such a wideangle, that is really nice.

these are the exact lenses canon needs for the rf-s

[@Folly_Inds]

For the same aperture, the old sony 10 - 18mm exists with in lens stabilization. I think that'll fill my needs better even if it does have more breathing

[@saifaldin_]

For video only, that’s a fair point. For still images, there’s a significant improvement in image quality.

[@pergunnareriksson]

I saw one review of this new lens praising it while also comfortably saying that the 10-18 is old and basically not worth buying in 2022. That rubbed me the wrong way as I'm sure the 10-18 still is a very competent ans useful lens. I've been following that reviewer for years and his comment means I'll definitely view his videos with a different perspective from now on.

[@saifaldin_]

@@pergunnareriksson The biggest problem with the 10-18 was sample variation. If one manage to get a lens that’s not de-centred, then it that’s quite a good setup (especially for video). I particularly like the size and weight of that lens. Having said that, even on the best copies, the outer edges never really get super sharp when stopped down - at least not compared to some newer offerings.

[@Folly_Inds]

@@pergunnareriksson There was some manufacture issues with the early makes for the 10-18 but I've got a later one I picked up used, and it works just fine. certainty for the sort of hobby use I get out of it. I think weather of your body has Ibis or not would be a good deciding factor. also perhaps look into the budget cost for both the lenses

[@ziginox]

Is the 1.4/15mm G the first APS-C lens to have an aperture ring? I'm also shocked how small it is, compared to the beast that is the Sigma 16mm 1.4 DC DN. Hopefully we'll see the 10-20mm compared to the old 10-18mm f/4, curious to see how much better it is. Maybe this means we'll see more Sony APS-C bodies soon?

[@SuperLisandro86]

And also compared to that fat Fuji 16mm f1.4. Probably it has more in camera corrections, but I would took that over the huge size anyday.

[@ziginox]

@@SuperLisandro86 no kidding, although the Sigma isn't absolutely terrible.

[@TW-iu9zy]

… the 1.4/15 takes very sharp pictures and overall good looking images. Best WA prime for Sony APSC so far. 👍🏻

[@Mn-xh9ps]

I see those lens like a way for sony to say "APSC is not dead, we will come back soon" and it gives me hope. Their APSC dont need a lot to be killer camera, just ibis every where with good active stab, 422 10bit, 4k60, less rolling shutter, and voilà..Those 3 very wide and light lens are also a déclaration that sony apsc will/are/want to become the "vlog king" and kill the game, 11mm f1.8 will have heavy success if they pull the good apsc camera that go with it.

[@bondgabebond4907]

I have the A7R3 for high detailed shots and the a6600 to take with me everywhere I go. I love the a6600, the size, its ability to take really great pictures. I'm looking at the 15mm 1.4. I gave my daughter my 16mm Sigma an my a6500, so I am missing that ultra-wide fast lens. So good to see aps-c is alive and well.

[@Penguins247]

Just wait until Sony release their camera based around the 26MP stacked CMOS APS-C sensor that's just appeared in the Fuji X-HS2 :)

[@Mn-xh9ps]

@@Penguins247 Yeah I m waitng for that ;)....I m a bit afraid for the price and not sure that those stacked sensor will be in sony apsc line..even if it s not stacked sensor I think they could do a better controlled rolling shutter sensor than the old 24mp with old BSI tech...price is one of the thing that sony apsc did well, not cheap but powerhouse for the price :) When I see the fuji xhs2, it s great but 2500dollar/euro...I would just go full frame (A7 IV) for the price (and fuji apsc are big/heavy and expensive lens, close to FF)...so I still hope that sony will manage impressive apsc in a light weight, small package, moderate price. and I m not sure it s possible (especially with stacked sensor)

[@KlipsenTube]

Sony did create the NEX line to reduce size, weight and price, but have since worked toward increasingly bulky, heavy and expensive camera bodies and lenses. Even the A6600 is much bigger than any NEX, and, with mostly FF lenses being introduced since the FE mount appeared, many E mount owners were probably feeling a bit disillusioned in Sony's intentions with APS-C, so this is very good news. My days of carrying an A900 body and several big, heavy lenses on long trips are gone. Today, the A6600 and two or three light lenses - now including the 10-20 mm - is all I want and need.

[@MarioPalomera]

I don't really understand what is it with Sony and their APS-C line strategy anymore. 3 new lenses and no new cameras??? just months after killing/freezing many models...

[@1barnet1]

I like these new lenses though. Especially that 11mm F1.8 looks fun.

[@Elgsdyr]

I have a feeling we'll see some new APS-C cameras from Sony soon. Especially the 15mm looks way too serious for Sony not to as serious about the crop mount in general in the future. And the freezing of models was because of parts shortage. It was openly stated so.

[@apricanephoto]

I agree with you. Also these are not the lenses I would have imagined Sony coming up with. At this point I'd like to see something to rival the XF150-600 and a similar camera from Sony, otherwise I think they will have trouble staying relevant for photographers. (Although, tbh, seeing as how stabilization sucks on Sony cameras, I'm not sure that even such a lens would make me stay with Sony APS-C at this point...)

[@ziginox]

@@Elgsdyr Canon just released some APS-C bodies, and we all know how much Sony likes swooping in immediately to steal the limelight. I think we'll be seeing a release soon.

[@MRPC5]

They want you to buy the full frame models. The apsc line is pretty much dead.

I bought all of them. The 15mm is the sharpest lens, second sharpest one which is out of my expectation turn out to be the 10 to 20mm F4 wide angle lens. The 11mm F1.8 performs well but not as good as the two others. I think I will sell the 11mm and get myself the Sigma 18 to 50mm DC DN zoom lens! It has the constant F2.8 aperture.

SONY's three lenses are literally pissing on Canon's APSC body release! Impeccable timing... Canon has no fast, bright, wide lenses - not even on the road map...

[@HappyHubris]

Now Sony needs to put a video-proficient sensor in their APSC lineup, instead of Jello City.

[@frankfeng2701]

It's a total disgrace that the same "Jello" has been used on 7 apsc bodies since 2014.

[@mirrorlessny]

@@frankfeng2701 yea jello 4k, they should make two different apsc sensors = 1 with more megapixels for photography & the other with like 20mp for video,,,,,, + active ibis & 10bit codecs of course

[@jonuiuc]

It would be cool if there was a crop mode on the A7c that used the extra real estate on that sensor to do an extra bit of electronic stabilization but with zero effective crop at apsc.

[@frankfeng2701]

@@mirrorlessny Even the same 14MP crop mode from A7iv implemented into an apsc body would work great for vlogging and general purpose.

[@thedalailmao]

Jordon said not to type so typing here. Jordan, you're awesome.

[@Elgsdyr]

I'm curious about the RAW distortion on these. As compact as the zoom and the 11mm is there must be quite a bit.

[@Elgsdyr]

Just been looking through samples and the IQ looks fantastic even with corrections, so I guess it's nothing to worry about.

[@Elgsdyr]

@Photogopinion Yeah, I saw it in Dustin Abbots review of the 15mm too. The good thing is that the shape of the distortion in both primes makes it easily corrected (if using RAW without lens profiles) and it doesn't seem to compromise the IQ.

Stacked sensor would be expensive, a6600 is already testing the water of higher priced APSC body, I don't think Sony want to sell APSC body priced higher than the good old A7III. Which would you choose for Vlogging? 11mm plus stacked new body or good old 20mm G lens with A7c?

[@VivekGupta-sh3lj]

Hey Chris, which bag is that you are using?

[@markymarkreviews]

I cannot believe that these lenses are being touted as for for vloggers when none of them have OSS and neither do the cameras that they go on. Very disappointed. Footage looks jerky and full of artefacts with the active image stabilisation of the ZV-E10. Sony desperately need to sell a decent APS-C camera with SSS or start to produce lenses with OSS, which I thought the 10-20mm was going to have. Would have been a perfect lens.

[@skepsys]

maybe they're hinting that some new apsc is on the way this year..

[@markymarkreviews]

@@skepsys I hope so as that is an increasingly popular market ,especially something compact & light. I do feel full frame cameras & lenses have become too big & heavy again. Either a new image stabilised APS-C body or new compact gimbal/grip to make up for the lack of lens OSS.

[@LoightaFluwid]

You need to raise the shutter speed to minimize the jerkiness and the artefacts when using Active steadyshot just like catalyst browse.

The GM monikor is not on because these lenses are not optimized for round, smooth bokeh, which is what GM is about. Many people still think "GM means sharper and better than G" but thats not true. It is not a one dimensional line from "bad to good".
