    New lens review out! SONY 10-18 MM F/4 - th-cam.com/video/FGLrI8LkAR8/w-d-xo.html

      Would you say you feel like this lens is "dull" with its focus? Like it's sharp but never mind blowing sharp? Watching your videos then looking at my own photos feels like mine are softer than everything I see here. I have sony a6100 and 18-105 but I need that crispness

      Tja, grym video! Tack!
      Fråga: jag ska gå PCT nästa år (gå från Mexiko till Kanada). Jag väljer mellan A6600 och A7C kameran och linser S18-105 f4G OSS eller till A7C S FE 24-105 f4G OSS...
      En kamera en lins på resan. Vilket hade du valt?
      A7C med den inre stabiliteten + den där OSS linsen när båda stabiliseringsfunktionerna jobbar tillsammans ska va väldigt bra.
      Men, 24-105... där är 24 lite nära för vlogging... funkar... Men 18 är bättre för den andra linsen i det syftet...

    It's hard to believe that I still didn't find any lens with constant or fixed aperture that provides that much of a focal length range. This lens may be more than six years old now, but boy this is my all time favourite lens. Once I've seen any brand come up with similar product like this Sony lens, I definitely wouldn't bother selling it.

    That was my first lens I bought for a6000. Than I had to buy Sony 35mm 1.8 oss and Sony 50mm 1.8oss for low light. Now I have everything what I need to make very good video, and I have to say, when I shoot wedding, 18-105 saves me at many situations when I cant get closer with that primes. So just simply take second a6000 with 18-105 ready on. And I know I can keep calm with that lens :)))

    Ironically, just bought a 6400 for an upcoming trip to Iceland! What would you recommend between the Sony 16-55 2f/.8 and this lens considering it's less than half the cost for more range, OSS, but losing 1 stop of light. Thoughts on bokeh with this lens? Love the channel, keep up the great content! :)

    • @thaticelandicguy
      @thaticelandicguy  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The 18-105 is a fav for me. With bokeh it's meh between 18- like 55 ish, but from 55-105 the bokeh is good.
      I've never used the 16-55mm, so can't really comment on that one. Been thinking about picking it up tho, would be sweet to have that 2.8 at 55mm for portraits.
      I'd say go with the 18-105, taking landscapes while zoomed all the way in is just money! But again, never had the opportunity to test the 16-55 yet. :)

    Hi. I have a little loose sound that you can hear if you tilt the lens up and down, its like something is loose inside that makes a little sound... It is only like this when the camera is turned off. When its on there is no sound at all.. Could it be the OSS mecanism that is like this or is the lens might broken? It does work excellent in both movie and photos. Do you have the same thing on your lens?

    • @thaticelandicguy
      @thaticelandicguy  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I acctually have, but I dropped it so hard once. On the pavement, thought it was smashed. But it was totally okay exept for that loose noise started then. But it's deffinitly they OSS or the autofocus because as soon as it's powered on it's off.

I know that the tamron has a bigger "shot" but I wonder which one takes better photos at the focal lengths I use most often, around 16-28 and 50-100. I also have a kit for the sony 16-50 and 55-210. I would like to have one lens for everything :)

    Great video ! Most likely picking one up. Found a used one for approx 300$. Currently using Sigma 30mm F1.4.

    Is it good for indian weddings or any events that is indoors and lighting is not that good? And also there's one more question can we create bokeh through focus ring?

    • @thaticelandicguy
      @thaticelandicguy  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Its f4 so its not the best for low light, also bokeh is possible on higher focal lengths with this lens

    Dude you are fun to listen to :) subscribed... just a friendly suggestion, you might consider moving back a bit away from the camera and getting a better mic... then it’ll be just perfect I think

    Quite a charming review! How do you find the fly by wire zoom mechanism? This is the only thing that puts me off this lens. But all the Sony zoom lenses have this

    If you need to update the firmware on this lens, note that it CANNOT be achieved if you have some of the more modern Sony cameras. Sony has not updated the software for quite some time, so for example FX3, FX6, FX9, FX30 etc owners will be stuck with whatever level of lens firmware they currently have.

    Hi sir pls reply for me
    Which lens is best for photography and videography
    18-105 f4 sony
    Or
    Tamron 18-300 f 3.5-6.3

  • @josephyayen8107

    Great review man! Would you rather pair it with the Sigma 16mm F1.4 or the Sigma 35mm F1.4? Videography wise.

    • @thaticelandicguy
      @thaticelandicguy  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you! hmmm I own the Sigma 16mm it's so good, but it's not stabilized witch matters for me. Never tried the sigma 35mm but I own the sony 35mm and it's so good.
      It's a tough call imo. On one hand owning a 35mm prime is great for video work, but then again the 18-105 can go to 35mm and not 16mm.
      The 16mm is suuuuper sharp and very fun to use.
      What are you mainly filming?

    • @josephyayen8107
      @josephyayen8107 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@thaticelandicguy I'm leaning towards getting the A6600 + 18-105mm. Then a prime. Choosing between the two. That was also what I thought of, the 18-105mm covers the 35mm but I heard about the 35mm for very cinematic look.
      More of a travel video vlog with cinematics.

    • @thaticelandicguy
      @thaticelandicguy  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The 35mm is super cinematic indeed, so maybe that one :)
      I got the 10-18mm sony as my 2nd lens a few years back, very happy with that one, and I got that super wide angle :)

    big fan here! I get a little confused between the SONY 18 - 135mm and 18 - 105mm, like what's really the difference between these two lenses? maybe you can make content for that and may you take this comment as a suggestion for your new video? Thumbs up!

    • @thaticelandicguy
      @thaticelandicguy  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Would love to do a comparison but I don't own the 18-135mm. The 18-135 doesnt have fixed appurture but the 18-105 has. Then I would guess there are some other things also that sepperate them

    hello, i have a6000 with kit lenses 16-50 and 55-210 , i find it difficult to use because of zoom range, the 16-50 is wide and 55-210 is tele so im thinking of 18-105 but with no additional budget by selling off 16-50 and 55-210, so will it be a good decision ? thanks
