I have this lens and it is amazing! I got an earlier version which had the dust issue. Sent it for repair through Samy's Camera in Pasadena to Sigma in NY. They fixed it under warranty and I had it back in less than two weeks! I love the customer service at Samy's Pasadena and Sigma was incredibly efficient! I have since bought the Sigma 85mm DG DN f1.4 Art. I am now a huge fan of Sigma - not just for image quality, but for their service.
I stumbled upon this review. I can't believe that you've this less subscribers. 😑. All the best for the channel. Apart from the review. I really really really like the whole cinematic intro. 💛 You are one talented guy!
Thanks for a great review of a neat lens. However, I am quite happy with my Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 lens on my A7iii... The weight, size and price of the Tamron are great and I don't miss the extra 4mm on the short side one bit. In fact, I regularly use the Tamron on my A6600 for people shooting. The 42mm equivalent short side doesn't distort people while the 112.5mm equivalent long side is great.
I disagree with the focus speed. You used a crowded back ground for sigma and calm one for g master. The camera takes time to realize the changes. Try with the same back ground as g master and you'll see
@@KenseiAkatsu welcome! havent had drastic issues with it yet but there are complaints of it in the web. so i’m very conscious of the location im shooting. AVOID DUSTY AREAS!!!!!
When it comes to Sigma vs Tamron, it's not all about technical stuffs, because they both are very good. It's just whether you like it or not. I like Sigma's color and sharpness.
Hey Kensei, this is genuinely an in-depth review from your side on this great lens indeed. I would like to seek your guidance regarding opting for one best option out of 2:- Sony a7III with Sigma 24-70mm f 2.8 ART OR Canon eos R6 Mark ii with Sigma 24-70mm f 2.8 ART? Is there really a big difference in terms of output considering the price point since I do mostly still photography and that too occasionally when I am on weekends or on a holiday trip, Which model do you suggest basis my requirements. Do you think that canon with this lens may deliver that extra warmth and smoothness which you and I both are looking for?
Thanks for the comment! I've never used Canon eos r6 so I don't know what to say about that. What I can say is investing on sony e mount lenses is a better option in my opinion.
I am in the process of deciding whether I should do this lens for full frame Sony... looking for B-Roll and Short Film type of fun artistic stuff... is it enough, or do i need the primes in this range for real purpose (such as 24, 35, 50, etc)?
I'm planing to drop a short film shot by this lens on this Wednesday (JPN), so stay tuned for it. I believe that will give you some informations and inspirations!!
None of these sponsored TH-camrs are talking about how much dust this Sigma lens collects. I almost bought this lens, but then read some comments about the dust issue and Googled it. Do your research before buying guys!!
@@KenseiAkatsu how about stabilization,4k video quality and Auto focusing, can you do a detailed video on auto focusing nd its settings. It would be really helpfull your review has helped a lot thanq once again. ❤️🙌
Great review and well put together video. I have this lens now but thinking about returning it. I've only used to it once for event shoot in a semi dark theater . 2.8 I felt wasn't enough . For now it's my 24 GM 1.4 and other 1.8 primes I guess. Versatility of not switching lens is great. Tough decision. Subbed
How do you like that sharpness?
I like it a lot and that 2.8 is awesome to have
Yeah, it's good for go-to lens!
Too sharp, not good with the modern rendering. Sterile. Flattish. Which is not to my taste especially for people portraits
Do you have a TH-cam channel where you have created short entertainment videos....the quality of your video is really great...very creative!
Thank you, but this is it.
Surely the subscriber count can't be accurate. This guy should be well over 100k
Yeah, I think TH-cam just miscalculated?? haha
Forget the lens, lets talk about your b-roll - awesome work dude!
Thanks, it has huge portion of a whole video haha
Great video.....you should do short movies also.....you have talent!!
Thank you! I will.
Bro I feel like I’m watching a TV show when I’m watching your channel
Thanks. That day might come haha

I use it on an a7siii
I liked that you mentioned the "genre" this lens appeals to. Most other reviews don't mention how the sharpness can effect style.
Yeah, exactly. Every lens has a unique image which must be known.
Just slap a black pro mist filter on to reduce the sharpness
Very cool B Roll man! I tried to capture the awesomeness of the lens in my review too! Keep up the good work.
Thank you. Oh you too? Nice, gotta check it out!!

Aw yeah spank dat lens hood
Spank dat, you'll be appreciated.
That lens spec b-roll is just awesome. Love the way you shot it. Very innovative 🙌
Thank you!
Who can unlike this video and why ! :D ... I just wanna say i really like all your videos , so creative :) you deserve much mooore likes and views :)
Thank you, that means a lot. I am happy as long as you enjoy my videos!!

Yeah, Tamron is much lighter and easy to carry. It gives us great footages, but I just love Sigma's image ✌️
This lens is an absolute beast! Keep up the good work - New subscriber here :) 🔥🤙
Thanks, welcome to my channel my friend! Yes, I agree that. This lens is absolutely my favorite.
Not a fan of gimbles - How bad is the shot if handheld with IBIS on a Sony A7iii...Then letting FCP or Da Vinci do its magic in post ?
I disagree with the focus speed. You used a crowded back ground for sigma and calm one for g master. The camera takes time to realize the changes. Try with the same back ground as g master and you'll see
Might be true.
Thanks for pointing it out. Next time I try AF test for them, I'll reduce a bias as much as I can.
Whats up man! Subscribed and bell for sure! Thanks for the vid!
Oh Yeah!! Thanks, welcome to my channel!
Kensei Akatsu thanks! Can’t wait to start a channel!
It's lighter than the GM right? Overall better buy over the GM?
It's 50g lighter than GM. Considering a price, I think so.
Great review! I’m on the verge of purchasing this lens.
Cool!! Let me know if you got it!
Your videos are super dope! Keep up the good work - love your content! 🙌🏻😋
Thanks, it means a lot to me. Will do my best as long as a creativity stays with me haha
Love your style of shooting!
and you're hilarious too
Thank you. I'll keep it up!!
before purchasing, do know that the lens glass will accumulate dust internally
Thanks for info!!
@@KenseiAkatsu welcome! havent had drastic issues with it yet but there are complaints of it in the web. so i’m very conscious of the location im shooting. AVOID DUSTY AREAS!!!!!
Sir in this lens whtat is better than tamron except the extra 4mm, auto focus and bettrer weather sealing?

New sub < Good work on the Sigma review.
Awesome, thank you!
Heart attack for that b-roll, worried that she might drop the lens. Lol
I know man, I always feel like that LOL
Thanks Peter...I mean Kensei
Maybe should I get a tattoo of my name at my forehead??
@@KenseiAkatsu probably. Or u should stop copying Peter.
@@elvinhsen I had a breakfast, and lunch. Well, I think it's time to take a coffee break... Maybe like for 10 min?
the creativity behind that b-roll is madddddd!!😩
Thank you
Love that broll 😍😅 enough to make me buy it 😂
Awesome video! Quick question: does this lens have bad distortion at 24mm? Looking at this lens for events. Thanks :)
Thanks. Not really as my using experience. I think you have no worries about it.
Thank for the vid. Would you make a specific Sony GM vs Sigma comparison video?
Sure, let me see what I can do!!
@@KenseiAkatsu thx
Can you help me? Sigma 24-70mm F/2.8 Art on Sony have stabilizer on lens
It doesn't have it.
Whats the difference between the Sigma 24-70 and the Sigma 24-70 DG OS HSM Art? Am I missing something?
DG OS HSM Art is Canon EF mount, and DG DN Art is Sony e-mount.
I know it's complicated haha.
thank you for this! you're dope
Happy to help!
Which is faster in focus speed Sigma 24 - 70mm vs Tamron 28 75 mm for video?
Sigma
I am in the process of deciding whether I should do this lens for full frame Sony... looking for B-Roll and Short Film type of fun artistic stuff... is it enough, or do i need the primes in this range for real purpose (such as 24, 35, 50, etc)?

ビデオの質はすごいね！
I think I'm gonna pick up this with the a7siii soon.
Nice! Hope you enjoy them!!
great work keep it up!
Thanks a lot. More are coming!!
Yo yo yo I felt like I was watching a movie 😭👌🏾🔥
Yo yo yo, thanks yo
if you dont like the sharpness just get a filter like the black mist from tiffen.
Yeah, it's a good idea. Thanks for the tip man!
Underrated channel
That's what we get in the beginning.
Can it be lock in all 35,50,70? Thank you
no
is the autofocus silent in video mode? it doesn't click or anything?
Yes it is. No, there is no click sound in it.
None of these sponsored TH-camrs are talking about how much dust this Sigma lens collects. I almost bought this lens, but then read some comments about the dust issue and Googled it. Do your research before buying guys!!
This video is not sponsored.
Human, we collect more dust than this lens. Don’t we?
Do your research, of course
@@KenseiAkatsu we don’t collect dust internally now do we?
We do. Osmosis is already going on.
Will you be reviewing the new Sigma 28-70mm?
Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
I don't know if it's next, but very soon.
Sigma 24-70 f2.8 or the Sony 24-105 f4?
I'll choose Sigma2470 because of sharpness and F2.8
Hey brother, where did you download that text animation?
From Peter Mckinnon.
Thank you for the info! Just subscribed
Awesome! Thank you!
Very informative, answered a lot of my questions about this lens. Fantastic B roll! 😀
Great to hear!
How did they do this with only one thousand dulllers?
I know right?
It's so damn good purchase!
What do you think of the sigma art lens 105mm f1,4?
Haven't tried it yet.
If I get an opportunity to use it, I'm making a video!!
@@KenseiAkatsu thank you 👍
Does it work with aps-c like a6400?
Yes, it works well!!
Any problem with dust inside the lens ?
I got some, but not that much.
Is it true that, the lens get dust inside?
Relatively yes.
nice vintage look nto your videos!
Thanks!
Is it a good first lense? For portaits, street photography ?
Sure, I will definitely recommend it for your purpose. You can use it for many things.
But I also suggest Sony 85mm f1.8 for portrait.
@@KenseiAkatsu thanks for reply :)
動画オートフォーカス速度はどれぐらい???
距離や絞りによりますけど、f2.8で使った時に平均大体1秒前後ですかね。
Any dust issue bro?
I see there are some dust inside of the glass, but I don’t have any problems for its image quality.
😱🙌🏻🙌🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥
🔥🔥
I like your color grading and review also!
Thank you, I'm still working on them!
I need this to match my 35mm 1.4!
Go get it!!
Kensei Akatsu not yet! No money lol COVID ruined my plans!
I like your style. Awesome lens intro
Thank you!! More are coming!!

As my feedback of using this, I didn't find those problems on this lens.

Absolutely yes!! This thumbnail portrait was taken by this lens. How good? I think "GREAT!!" 😂

Actually, THIS!
i have sony a 7iii nd sigma 24-70 art lens but i dnt get sharpe details in image ?
Same for me also

Thanks!!
What about the dust that gets in the lens. Does it mess up the image quality
It gets some dust inside of a glass, but that doesn't ruin anything at all
Great Videos! Always Quality Content!
Appreciate it!
Awesome. Just what I'm hoping to see. Now you've made reviews for the 3 main standard zoom range lens for Sony. That'll help a lot of people.
Thanks a lot! That's exactly what I hope!!
Great review and well put together video. I have this lens now but thinking about returning it. I've only used to it once for event shoot in a semi dark theater . 2.8 I felt wasn't enough . For now it's my 24 GM 1.4 and other 1.8 primes I guess. Versatility of not switching lens is great. Tough decision. Subbed
Thank you. 24mm GM F/1.4 is absolutely great choice, but there is another option like Sigma 24mm F/1.4 art.
@@KenseiAkatsu Yeah sigma has 24 1.4 too, I already buy last year 24GM though. I love it. Especially the size.
@@Vagrant1PSN Cool, I'm thinking to have it in my show soon.
@@KenseiAkatsu keep making videos bro. I love your stuff. Maybe one day we can chill in Tokyo 👊
Thanks, the city and I will welcome your visit!!
