Hi Christopher, is Sigma full time manual lens? I couldn't find it anywhere.

Great video for putting these lenses in perspective with each other. Grabbed a Sigma 18-200 on eBay for $70 with a hood and 3 filters. Maybe things have changed in the past 8 years, but I still see more recent recommendations listing these lenses for beginners. 🤷

What you're saying and what I am seeing just don't match.

The best lens reviewer of all time!

Why are your hands so wet?

Wow. My $3000 Canon blows this thing away! 😂 All that money and they couldn’t even get the auto focus down

This is the sharpest lens review in the channel so far. Impressive!

Ahhh this is lovely! Would love to see the Summilux 50mm 1.4 if you can get your hands on it.

Would this be good on the APSC (R50) body? Or would it lose all the benefits it has on a full frame (bokeh/distortion worse etc). Thanks @chris

105mm on full frame is the true bear focal for portraits and even walk around . I never could figure out why 85mm was so popular when there was great 105s available

So whats a good alternative to this lense? A Sigma?😮

I'm shocked this lense isn't sharper on the edges: it's not that cheap *to me". Fantastic review!😊

I'd like to see reviews of the Sl 35 and 50 Apo

“It sounds like an asthmatic dinosaur in the mating season” Hahahahahaha. Oh Chris, you and your sayings. Still, my favourite line is “this lens is about as useful as an ejector seat on a helicopter”. Love the homage to DigitalRev!

Samyang 135 or Nikkor 135 2.8 for F mount?

❤🎉 Very nice

I wish nikon had a 16mm 1.8 z lens that matched so we could get wider on the zfc

The fact that professional photographers do not carry around a Leica tells me they [Leicas] are not all that cracked up to be (and let's be honest, those guys are carrying no less than 30-50 grand in equipment at any given time).

This is actually a really good lens for the money this guy's just a negative prick

Maybe someday, Sony will bring electronic ND like a samsung got in their phones (not electronically accessible internal physical ND) so we can bypass all those problems and have variable auto ND mode too. Like getting 1/800sec shutter no matter bright or dark.

It's so hard to get quality one, but it's great to know. Thinking about filter, I use just as a protection, I should find something of higher quality, so my stills are not ruined...

Very fine work in reviewing lenses for a number of years. The writing style is enjoyable, with a little wimsey included. Excellent presentation, reflecting a passion for the subject.

Got a mail today that it arrived, im thinking of tradig in my 24mm 2.8 35mm gm 1.4 and maybe the 50 1.4 ?

I started out with the Sigma 24-70 2.8 first generation. It was very good but not as good as my adapted Canon EF 24-70 2.8II. I sold both and replaced it with the Sony 24-70 2.8 II. This zoom was breathtakingly fantastic. It’s the best zoom I have ever used across any platform. The colors, bokeh and sharpness are just outstanding. I’m not sure what to do with my prime lenses in that range. They are now relegated to low light and bokeh duties in very challenging conditions only. I must add that I prefer the warmer colors of the sigma zoom. While the Sony zoom was at a very painful price point. I am glad I purchased it. Trading in my other zooms did help.

who in their right mind would buy this 😂 at this point leica is just a bragging object for rich people 😅 yes perfect performance but at this price point?

The combo kit with straight and 90 degree turn has already sold out!

Complaining about sharpness is what technicians do, not "artists".

it is amazing to see what money can do

Do we need to rebalance the gimbal in inner zoom lenses

I had thought this was basically a copy of a canon 35mm f2 so not sure why it performs so much worst?

Very interesting, informative and good video, Christopher. In my opinion one of the best comparisons of lenses for Canon Ef-M mount. And the only one which introduces the Tamron 18-200 mm F/3.5-6.3 Di III VC lens. I never heard of that one. And so I tried to find it - and beeing succsessful for 238 Euros in good condtion. That's the best compromise for holiday photography. I' m very thankful to you😀 Christoph from Germany/Rhineland.

Does autofocus work when it is in Macro mode?

i think my ttartisan 27mm f/2.8 is good enough

Thanks - really good review. Of all the reviews your review was the one that convinced me to pull the trigger and buy this lens.

Not a fan of comparisons across lens mounts. Who is thinking about changing camera systems for a ever-so-slightly sharper 20mm lens??

Please do more L-mount lenses including Panasonic Lumix's lenses 🙏

Is it just me or the Canon RF 28mm f/2.8 isn't all that far behind for the fraction of the price?! 🤔 It is also pretty sharp across the frame, has similar or even less distortion, and almost as bright.

Love the Duke Nukem reference at 5:43 :)

Extraordinary, quite impressive indeed.

Surprisingly smartphones also have better wide lens at much lesser prices

Can you review the Sirui f1.2 'Sniper' AF lenses? Thank you. There are no objective methodical reviews like yours of those lenses out there.

Will still keep adapting my EF 11-24 F/4

I love your videos! It's the go to for lenses that I need to research before I buy!!!

The algorithm delivers me a 40+ minute video about MiniDisc? Guaranteed watch. Didn't expect just how unhealthy the obsession would get by the end of the video, though lol I'm under no delusions - my interest in this is purely nostalgic. I had a NetMD portable in the early 00s that accompanied me through most of high school, and a bit into university. It helped me weather the gap between iPods being affordable (my 30gb iPod still stands as the portable music player that I used for the longest time) and the last properly good portable format before it (cassette). For those years in the early 2000s, NetMD was such a sweet-spot on price and performance. In the 90s, MiniDisc was a format that I super wanted to use, because it was so obviously superior to cassette. But, a $500 CAD MiniDisc portable for an 8 year old to take to school every day was a pretty hard sell to my parents. So, I used cassette and a low-end Sony Walkman on the go, and CD at home, recording loads of mix tapes along the way.

Impressive performance. I thought my 20mm Z 1.8 was expensive for what is was. This thing is in another price bracket altogether.

I love Duke Nuke Em too 😂

I'd like to see this compared to other 28mm lenses, so see which ones come close or might beat a 5g lens.

This was interesting, thank you. Wondering how my 28mm Summilux f/1.7 on my Q2 compares.

ha, nice They Live reference
