    I’ve had both. Only major difference is if your going to use it for video work I would go with the Sony. If your going to use it for photos there exactly the same. Buy them used you’ll save money

    I've had the Sigma 35 1.4 DG DN since it was released. I had purchased the 35 GM a few weeks earlier and decided to return it and save the $$. I have not regretted it one bit (I also, own the new 24 1.4 DG GN and the 85 1.4 DG DN; the only GM I own is the 135).

      @@jvincents I recently picked up the Samyang 135mm 1.8 AF for $725 at B&H. The IQ was outstanding, but the build quality was not for me. It felt like a cheap plastic toy with almost no protection for my sensor at the gasket area. I’m going to save up an purchase the Sony 135mm GM instead. I need to be confident when shooting for payed clients that my gear is solid. I return the Samyang for a full refund, I really love B&H! I

  • @MarkStCyr
    @MarkStCyr 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Visually the difference is pretty imperceptible. The bigger decision is how much does one value the size/weight savings on the Sony GM. It's more expensive but lighter. I have the GM and love it but if Sigma had this 1.4 available when I was in the market I would've gone for Sigma and saved about $500 which you could put towards another lens. Maybe the Sigma 50mm DG DN if they ever finish making it ;)

  • @JrBassangler12
    @JrBassangler12 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The Sony GM is a bit more sharp. Both great lenses, Can’t go wrong with either one. However my choice would be the GM because of the weight difference.

  • @leemjfreeman9856
    @leemjfreeman9856 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Tried both, but went with the GM (Although I am usually a Sigma fan boy). Nothing between them really, although, I do find the skin tones from the Sony to have more of a red hue. My decision was purely based on build quality, which felt superior on the GM to me.

      I was looking exactly for a comment like yours. Thanks! How do you see the combination between Sony and Sigma in your combo? I´m looking for the 50mm. 1.4 of Sigma but also for the 35mm 1.4 GM Sony and i don´t know if it´s gonna be problematic in post (specially for the tone difference between them...) Thanks in advance!

    Hello, Mitch☺ I was wondering in which mode did you do this shooting and what setting was here ? I’ve noticed that on 4:19 and 4:52 bokeh have “distortion”. The shape of bokeh looks like half cuted. The same effect is on Sony a7c when shooting in ECF mode, because a7c only has Electronic Curtain Shutter. Did you shoot in EFCS ? Was it over 1/1000 shutter speed ? Manny Ortiz also made a video about this “Why you SHOULDN'T use the ELECTRONIC SHUTTER for PORTRAITS!”
    Would love to hear your opinion and experience on this 🫶

    Don't you feel they have both too.much sharpness and contrast for very close up portraits?
    There is also f/2 version, and there s no huge difference between f2 and f1.4

  • @franknelissen8041
    @franknelissen8041 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    It's personal taste but I like the look of the RAW versions better. Besides that, no real difference between the two lenses. And perceivable difference in sharpness at that level is overrated. Thanks for the video!

    There is not really much of a difference there. The Gm is a tad sharper but nothing to justify the price difference. The size of the sigma might be the deciding factor to pick sony though

  • @juliancanalesphoto
    @juliancanalesphoto 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I have the original version of the sigma 35 1.4 which is a great lens but struggles tremendously with backlit subjects and overall contrast at 1.4. Plus its HUGE so I’m excited to upgrade to the DG DN version. Also I started using narrative select based on your recommendation and man is it a time saver. Preciate ya Mitch! Come to Texas

  • @Reviews4fun1
    @Reviews4fun1 ปีที่แล้ว

    In think the real differences are size and price. I went with the 24 1.4 sigma dg dn instead, to complement my 85 Sigma. Both are a bit smaller.

      Sony A7 IV all day. The first and third party lens options are abundant. I first started my career with all Sigma and Tamron lenses to save money. I just now started getting several GM’s like the 35 and 24 recently and love them. Get the GM’s open box if you can from Adorama or B&H, you will save hundreds and still have the full Sony warranty.

      @@MitchLally Yes, *yours* are, but the people who watch you probably aren't, because they don't have your experience. Also, in the prime vs zoom challenge you did a year ago with your buddy Carlo, when your lens was 1 1/3 stops slower but you had to crank up your ISO by about 4 stops, it's because of camera shake when you hold it away from your body. It's physics, torque and rotational angles. If you want a tutoring session on it, I'm available.
