Of course the new one is better, just the the weight alone is worth the upgrade. I’ve had both, and I’m very happy with the DGDN, but let’s better clear both are amazing lenses.

Note: you can pick up an excellent condition used sigma HSM for HALF the price of the new DG DN model. Value wise, based on the still-excellent performance of the older model, it’s the better deal IMO.

I totally agree! My guess is that we'll see an upgraded 35mm f/1.4 first (to compete with Sony's latest 35mm f/1.4 GM release) then maybe a new 50mm or 135mm. Either way, I feel like this year is going to be a good one for Sony camera owners!

Unfortunately I don't think that'll happen any time soon as Canon seem pretty rigid on their plans to not allow third party manufacturers to make lenses for RF mount. Such a shame. Feels very greedy to me 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hello, from ur experience, I wanted to ask u about bokeh comparison in sigma 85mm f1.4 lens on both apsc and full frame, which camera will result in more bokeh? I know that full frame is better in bokeh but considering the compression we get from the crop factor on apsc in the 85mm distance will that result in more bokeh than using it in full frame body?

The lens you're referring to is the old, old version of Sigma's 85mm, so not quite the same as either of these two. Couldn't tell you how it compares to these as it's fairly old now and was discontinued a good number of years ago.

@TomCalton

Oh wow, that's a tough one! The 105mm is an awesome lens, but the 85mm is A LOT lighter. So if the weight of the 105mm is stopping you from using it then I would say it's probably worth the switch.

You had corrected the distortion on the new lens, then used those results in the comparison, While not correcting for the chromatic aberrations on the old lens. Although I think this a slightly bias, this is still a good review.
@TomCalton
@TomCalton 2 жыл бұрын
That's really not true at all - watch that part again. I corrected for barrel distortion on the new lens to demonstrate the point about it being easily corrected, then I reverted it back to the original uncorrected version for the analysis.
@LY121688
@LY121688 2 жыл бұрын
I think what he means is that you did the sharpness test without distortion correction on the new one even though you demonstrated the correction just a few seconds previously. I am deeply opposed to software distortion correction as you are cropping and scaling the image and wasting the sensor which is the most expensive part of the camera. Someone else did a sharpness test where he compared the old sigma 85mm to the new one both with and without distortion correction, and the old one can be sharper at smaller apertures. At 7:16 you corrected the distortion, then at 7:21 you uncorrected it to do your sharpness test, which is flawed as you lose contrast from scaling the image.
