Your content was informative and entertaining. I appreciate the style that you use in reviewing this lens. It perfectly illustrates the features of this product in a way that is useful to me. It is helpful to me in learning the strong points of this lens.
Excellent review mate. I got this lens with a second hand a6500 and started playing with it only today, over a month since getting it. I am mighty impressed with what I can produce with this combo so far! Highly recommended for amateurs and enthusiasts I would say. Also, you take terrific photos! Keep them coming.
You made my day. Most of the people used to criticise this lens for its low res quality in 70mm but your honest review got me mate. 💗. No doubts left. Legendary shotgun review 🤘
Just got my first ever camera... Sony A7iii.. with this exact kit lens. I appreciate your review, especially the positive perspective to "use it now!" I have been wondering if I should get another lens yet, but your video encouraged me to "use it now" and learn what it can do... and get additional lens down the road. Thanks!
What an amazing review!! The best review I have ever seen on a camera, I purchased the camera BECAUSE of this review and I have been researching for YEARS!
Your short was enjoyable. Initially it looked like you were going to stop at, 'why tell them, when you can show them? 'It was a great approach for a creative filmmaker. Your follow-up points were well taken. One of these lenses may be coming into my life and I wanted to get an idea of the quality. A strong foundation seems to be present. Technical measurements and specs aside, as you stated and portrayed, it's about our creativity and how we apply the tools. Story will always usurp any technical limitations. Thanks for a great review. You fluffed up my creative juices this morning and all I came looking for was an opinion. Your talent and care are appreciated. 📸🌞
Really great video! I think many reviewers forget how light it is and for me that is the only reason I own it and recently bought it despite having my camera for years. Some days (doing photo walks or test stuff) I just hate lugging around my faster lens. Yes, the aperture is slow but but it works . I carry my 17-28 tamron if I need to go wider and use clear zoom if I need a little extension on the longer end but these are low fuss days ans not about image quality. I don’t pixel peak anyway and on most occasions I’m using it between f5.6 and f8 and its pretty sharp. The alternative by weight comparison 28-60 which is tiny but I often found this just a but short. Everything else you have shown is a bonus for me and optically it’s great too (love the internal zoom too), especially it looking more filmy as it’s not so sharp which gives it more ‘character’ IMO (i own a fuji for this reason too). Some of those other flaws can be fixed in post in raw or in camera if you’re shooting jpeg. I think you have to have a purpose for your lenses and gear and work them accordingly. I own a few things which do a lot, but nothing I own does everything so I’ve built my system accordingly.
After all the fuss of 2.8 lenses now, i have overlooked this lens. From your video this lens is awesome. Furthermore it has OSS which to me is important for video. To pair it with ZVE1, i think this combo will be stellar.😊
Another splendid Kensei review, thank you! I can only buy a SONY A7IV with this lens for added $200 US, so I did based on your great review. You are an artist, keep creating, I love it!
hey Ken - thanks for this. I'm quite new to photography and think this kit lens would then be allright for me to begin with. I really love the shots and video you created with this lens. sugoi kirei.
So it's not a $2000 G Master got it. It still however looks pretty good and the cost of it gives you some piece of mind if you are walking around. Glad to have one.
Great video! After watching (far too) many hours of camera content on TH-cam, today I finally got my first very own big boy camera. Got a great deal on an used A7 iii and ordered this lens to accompany it. Thanks for the detailed review!
I recommend shooting in S-LOG3. I know it's a little complicated to handle, but it gives you the best result out from the camera. And Frame rate is up to your preference. Either of 24 or 30fps (My basic fps is 24). And the ideal shutter speed is double of your FPS (If 24fps, 1/50). Keep ISO 800 as much as possible. If you need to change an exposure, use aperture or ND filter( You can crank SS up, but around 1/500 at max). If you wanna know more detail, please watch my tutorials!!
you are such a funny fellow :)) after watching the third video from U, i even wish to know you in person also videos are super helpful for those who chooses sony lenses ;)
thank you. I find it so hard to find good info on this lens, I'm hoping that i can use it as my mid range zoom to get started so that I don't have to buy too many lenses at once. you made it look great... I'm sure a lot of that comes done to your skill, but its nice to know that the lens can achieve a good look. since full frame is going to be a stretch for me to afford, I like the idea of having a general purpose lens in my kit that I could smash without loosing too much sleep. It makes it possible to use the camera in a more run and gun way and in circumstances where the lens could get damaged which might mean getting shots that I wouldn't get if I had to put expensive glass in a precarious position. thanks again!
Hello! Great video🎩 I have a question: I’m buying a Sony A7iv but I’m not sure if going with the kitlens or simply buy the camera body and then take a Sigma 28.70 2.8. May I have any suggestion? Thand
Which Sigma Lens is competing with this one? I would like a Sigma lense that a bit of an upgrade to this lense in your video BUT! There’s an but, it must more or less in the same price range. Does a sigma lense like this exist? I need a new lense ASAP . I hope you can help me.
Which setup is better ?? A6400 with 18-135mm kit lens & sigma 16mm &56mm Or A7m3 with 24-70mm kit lens ? They cost the same here in India. Please suggest
I know this is a kit lens review and you did an excellent job on your review, but the shutter noise, wow, it's too loud, 3X louder than my A57. Aside from motion shots, are there any differences when shooting in quiet mode in PQ? Have you tried taking 4K video and extracting the frames (e.g., using ffmpeg) and pixel peeping the quality of the frames / geometry / chromatic issues? Thanks again!
Thanks for watching! Yeah it has some problems, but it's not that bad when you consider its price. And I don't understand that much those technical things you said lol
What do you recommend as an all around lens for video and photo for a7iii that has OSS? Trying to stick to using one lens without changing it out too often.
7:28 危ないよ!! 😂 Any how I am trying to convince myself to keep this lens instead of selling it and getting a EF/EF-S to NEX adapter and using my canon lenses on there instead. I only got adapted lenses and the only thing this thing has over those is auto focus. Which the adapter would solve. I am still not convinced that I should keep it around.
Its competition is the Canon EF Zoom 35-105mm f4.5 from 1989. Just as light, better reach, better image quality while still looking a bit vintage. @@KenseiAkatsu

Sick B Roll dude, true inspiration
Clour is heavy and contrasty, low dynamic range - absolutely right. Those are the important details to talk about

Thank you
Great review! What preset did you use for the pictures I love to the color profile on them. Would you mind sharing the preset?
hey Ken - thanks for this. I'm quite new to photography and think this kit lens would then be allright for me to begin with. I really love the shots and video you created with this lens. sugoi kirei.
Yes, this lens is enough sometimes!

Thanks for your video, been a Canon user, just purchased Sony a7ii with this Kit lens, was afraid I was going to regret my decision on the lense
Well done best detailed video I have seen got my sub

Congratulation! Hope you enjoy them!
Great review! Thankyou for this
Welcome!
hello friend, I just watched the video about the a7iii between the kit 28:70, what is the best setting to record in 1080 and 4k using the kit lens?
I recommend shooting in S-LOG3.
I know it's a little complicated to handle, but it gives you the best result out from the camera.
And Frame rate is up to your preference. Either of 24 or 30fps (My basic fps is 24).
And the ideal shutter speed is double of your FPS (If 24fps, 1/50).
Keep ISO 800 as much as possible. If you need to change an exposure, use aperture or ND filter( You can crank SS up, but around 1/500 at max).
If you wanna know more detail, please watch my tutorials!!
28-70 + 85 1.8 or Tamron 28-75 2.8? I can only buy either the two Sony or the Tamron for pre-wedding photography. What do you recommend?
The film is next level ...pro 👍
Thank you!!
you are such a funny fellow :)) after watching the third video from U, i even wish to know you in person

Yes, I'm trying to be a Sony king lol

Great review! What fonts did you use?
Which one?
Usually I like "Impact"
Great review! Very transparent
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks man!
Happy to help!
What do you recommend as an all around lens for video and photo for a7iii that has OSS?
Trying to stick to using one lens without changing it out too often.
Sony 24-105mm F4 is a good choice.
I love that lens.
The review of that lens is coming soon!!
@@KenseiAkatsu thanks I might go handheld with it in the future. Does it have OSS?
What about Tamron 28-200?
Is it okay to use this lens on a crop sensor?
Btw nice review!
Yes, it is okay.
Thank you!
Can I use Apsc Crop Lens Sigma 30mm f1.4 and 16mm f1.4 in Sony A7iii Fullframe and Produce Best bokeh?
Not best, but it produces some.
how good can this lens work on a7r iv.. i want a light and portable lens for 4k video..how is it for photos on such a high res camera?
I think it works well on that too!
Photo with this is fine.
what picture profile setting you use please help me on that...
PP7, s-log2
It videos are great !
Glad you think so!

You won't get the same performance from an off brand lens that is adapted. Stick with the Sony.
