    If you get these lenses make sure you get the Firmware update to the latest version. I have teh Fuji ones and they work so much better with the new firmaware update. I love the look they render.

    Thank you for a good review, its nice to see your channel growing. I would add that snipers have quite warm colors. 1.2 bokeh+warm colors+lack of sharpness contributes to that "dreamy look". I really liked it, it is especially good for some videos. Autofocus is really useful when you record your content alone. I bought 23mm sniper and I was so happy with the results that I also bought 56.

    • @IliasKoureas
      @IliasKoureas  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I noticed the warm colors but I thought that was just my idea!! Awesome that you could confirm it for everyone reading comments. Definitely like the warmer colors, since so many low budget lenses have a weird green or magenta tint or simply have washed out color's. Editing the pictures and the videos with the Sirui lenses was smooth

  • @iaincphotography6051

    They look well made lenses and gave good results on your test but I would opt for the Viltrox as they have the aperture ring on for the Fuji XT.

    • @IliasKoureas

      Every Fuji shooter I know uses the aperture ring on the lenses , meanwhile I never do that 😂

    Credible review, Ilias. If you did not say you are Greek, I’d think from your energetic hand gestures, you were Italian. (Old joke - how to silence an Italian - tie his hands😊.)
    Are there lens profiles in LR for these lenses?
    Is there weather sealing?
    Is the AF noisy?
    Do the lenses come in black instead of white? More discrete, IMO.
    Now you’ve managed to insult Canon users - nice😊. Cheers!

    • @IliasKoureas
      @IliasKoureas  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      They are our neighbours so we definitely took a few things from them 😂
      Will check about the LR profiles and let you know!!
      There is no weather sealing as far as I'm aware
      You can hear the autofocus motor if you are close to the lens so your cameras microphone might pick it up.
      Lastly these lenses also come in silver and black as well 💪
      Cheers mate 🍻

    In my opinion it is worth saving some more money and go for the excellent sigma f1.4 primes. They are much sharper from wide open and up to the corners.

    • @IliasKoureas
      @IliasKoureas  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      If sharpness is a top prioritry , thats the right choice! I have a friend who always creates dreamy and film-like images with his editing so he is picking softer lenses

    Would it not be a good idea to buy full frame lenses when you can over crop sensor in case you upgrade in future?

    • @IliasKoureas
      @IliasKoureas  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      If you plan on doing it professionally then yes it's a good idea to invest early in full frame glass. I personally have 2 full frame lenses. If not then apsc is more than enough. Cheaper and smaller

    • @IliasKoureas
      @IliasKoureas  6 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Never found the time to do it man sorry! But the sirui is the softer out of the viltrox and Nikon lenses. The Nikon has the slowest Auto focus though. Viltrox and sirui are faster in terms of auto focus and in terms of aperture. I personally kept the viltrox 23mm out of all of them. F1.4 is the sweetspot and it's sharp enough for video and photo work.
      But if you want the most magical images , the sirui is definitely the best option with that f1.2 aperture . If you want the most sharpness wide open and the smallest lens then the Nikon 24mm 1.7 is the right option. Keep in mind after f2.8 all three lenses are really sharp.

    • @BladeSaliva
      @BladeSaliva 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@IliasKoureas No worries thanks for replying! Is the viltrox really that much sharper than the Sirui for you to keep it in expense of the extra brightness? They are practically the same price in my country (11k) but the Nikon is more expensive at 16k but the size and close focusing is tempting me.

    Το bokeh είναι λίγο για 1.2 . Πρακτικά, θα έπρεπε να εξαφανίζοταν το υπόβαθρο. Τους βλέπω μόνο ως οικονομικούς βίντεο φακούς ή για art φωτογραφία (που με παλιούς φακούς έχεις καλύτερο αποτέλεσμα με χεράτο focus). Οι 'κινέζοι' στο 1,2 -1,4F παίζουν καλύτερα στην μισή τιμή αλλά χεράτο focus... Καλό είναι βέβαια που βγήκαν, ώστε να υπάρχουν επιλογές για καινούργιους χρήστες.

      Το 1.2 ειναι οπτικα οσο 1.8 σε full frame ουσιαστικα στο αντιστοιχο mm. Νομιζω στοχευουν κυριως σε νεους φωτογραφους που θελουν να δοκιμασουν το 1.2 σε μια χαληλη τιμη :)

    A shame there is no aperture control ring. Looks like they are primarily good for the video content creator market. I was noticing these seem to have some flaring issues as well.

    • @IliasKoureas
      @IliasKoureas  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Many user's care about the lack of the aperture ring which is understandable. Good thing is that there is a lot of completion in this price point. I haven't noticed any major flaring issues and I'm using them 2 months straight.

      I was in the same dilemma once. After a lengthy revie of both, the Nikon 24-120 f4 S lens is a versatile, sharp, fantastic, enjoyable, and almost perfect choice. It has good balance and quickness. Of the 12 lenses I have for my Z6, Z7 II, and yes, D650 (with adapter), this lens is my go-to. Do not worry about the price as it will pay for itself time after time. I suggest renting one for a week before purchasing to assure it is to your liking. You will not be disappointed.
