Hey Dr Ruben! Are you saying that I have to buy the Sigma 18-35? The spending never ends does it... Thanks a million for another great-looking and informative missive From frosty but clear Ireland! 🔥🧨💪🏽🤠👍🏽🧨🔥
@@SonnyGreenwichJr Well, MFT doesn’t mean a bad camera. Let me know if you need any advice. You know I share my little knowledge. Take care, my brother
I know it’s way more expensive, but Sigma makes the 18-35 in a cinema housing with manual aperture. And for the long end I would go with the Irix 150 macro. Both are on the clinical sharp low character side.
Very interesting vid! Exploring my options w/ the Sigma lenses on my as well. 18-35 is a clear beast. Any reason why you didn't go with the sigma 70-200mm tele? Cheers from Belgium
Haha, yeah…, budget. I sold my 3 cinema lenses and didn’t want to spend more than what I had. I know, you get what you pay 💰😂. Thanks so much for watching and leaving a good comment 🙏
I have been filming weddings, funerals, interviews, events with the Samyang 24mm. I have a video where I compare it to a Canon photo lens. Very happy with it. Just need a longer knee to film events on a stage
Hi Ruben, Very unconventional choice for the telephoto lense. I do get how it feels when we experiment with new lenses whose reviews are also very few out there in market and then it somehow doesn't work the way you would have loved to. But I am sure you are going to find a way to work around it until you land on the right one. At the end it's the eye behind the camera that matters the most. For that this Sigma Telephoto Macro lense is surely in safe hands. 😀 Happy Filming 👍
I recently bought a Samyang 85 T 1.5 and was thinking of completely switching to Samyang to sell my Sigma 18-35 F1.8 and Sigma 70-200 F 2.8 now watched your video and put Samyang back up for sale. Sigma stays with me
Hi there! Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment. Definitely Sigma is much better. I had 3 Samyang and in the end I sold them all. Sigma lenses will stand somehow in the middle between, RF Canon lenses (very sharp) and vintage lenses. There are much better lenses than Sigma, but they are good enough for many projects. Cheers
Great video, have you tried looking into the sigma 50-100mm f1.8 ? It’s a great combo to go with the 18-35. I deffo understand what you mean about the other Lens, it’s also very soft and doesn’t cut well with the sigma 18-35 . In my opinion.
It’s all about budget my friend cause I didn’t want to spend more than what I got from selling my other lenses, but I will definitely look into thank you so much, brother 🙏
I barely use my 18-35 since I switched to vintage zeiss/leica r sets. Sure it has low breathing copared to vintage glass but also many cons most ppl dont mention: -too contrasty but low saturation which make it looks videoish -flat image compared to the cooke/zeiss microcontast aka 3d pop -not parfocal compared to sigma 24-70 or 28-70 therefore not great for doc -ugly flare It's a bargain lens for a clean look, but lack of character.
You are 100% right!!! Those vintage zeiss Leica R are a dream! Can’t wait to get my hands on them. One day! Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 🙏
Awesome conversation, bro! Can't wait to witness Sigma rocking the 18-36 Art on full frame - that's going to be a game-changer! 😎
Although I’m just getting into Sigma, I believe you’re 100% right! Thanks brother 🙏
Unless I'm missing a new announcement, the Sigma 18-35 is APS-C, not FF :)
@@Entrenuages He was talking about the new upcoming 18-36mm Art FF, not the 18-35mm f1.8 which is APS-C
What an incredible set up!
Thanks brother 🙏

Hahahah, yes my friend, it’s a never ending story 😂. No, I believe you have MFT, haven’t you?
@@topicruben I do, but one day in the not too distant future, I'll invest in a better camera... 💪🏽🤠👍🏽

That’s a very interesting suggestion! And if I’m not wrong, the 18-35 you’re mentioning is also partfocal
Interesting video Ruben. I am contemplating a video on my biggest mistake in Photography. The change from Pentax to Canon.
I’ll be waiting for it!!! Thanks for passing by, my good friend 🙏

I could have listened to you talk lenses for quite a while longer. This is one video that felt too short.
That’s a good sign, I guess 😄. Thanks so much, brother 🙏

@@topicruben wish you the best luck! These days it's getting harder to get them here in Germany, especially those Zeiss distagons.
@@Meatyowlleg those are actually my favorites! Zeiss distagons!!! Thanks, brother
