New to the photography game and I just wanted to say I appreciate the video! Super informative and all-around enjoyable to watch. Keep up the great work!

I have this lens (I was very lucky to pick it up for £500 secondhand last year) and it is the lens that spends the most time on my camera now.

Pair it with a 70-350 and you are covered for wildscape photography, thanks for the content.

Just got my first sony, 6700 I think this video just sold it for your link

In terms of image quality for stills photography, this lens is the best compared to other f2.8 standard zoom offerings. (Might not be the best value lens for some, though)

If strictly for videos, the extra quality & features won’t matter much. The Sigma 18-50 might be a better option.

I got mine used for about usd720.. definitely a worthwhile purchase for that price.

Great job on the video! Thanks for making it.

For the price, it should have had OSS and/or constant barrel like the 18-105mm f/4 ... Great review

[MarttiSuomivuori]

I just took a serious, detailed look at both Sony and Sigma and ordered the latter.

[DWebbTheOldHead]

Love the lens, but I hate that it doesn’t have OSS. For a lens that’s damn near (or at) $1, 400.00, IT SHOULD. Knowing my dumb self I’ll probably wind up copping it.
BTW, that Sigma 18-50 is no joke. If you haven’t got it, then do yourself a solid and get it.

Great review and video, my man. 🥃

[hunterxhunter]

I have both the gmaster and g versions its my fav lens for video

[TZR]

Any chance of them making a refresh and include oss?

[aawonnewton]

Which full frame are you using this on? I have this lens with an apsc currently and I’m curious how it is on your full frame

[robertmoore]

What happened to your edc and backpack videos was going to go back and watch some but can’t find them just wondering?

[hylcob]

How is it on it on a gimbal, is it to front heavy or can it be balanced well?

[judem]

I love my Sony a1. When I use other Sonys, I miss features. But I hate the heavy lenses. Also, I visit remote areas. The a1 and a giant lens cause too much attention. I put an APS-C lens on it and it’s good for a whole day of shooting.

[mfrankel]

Good review, but the Sony is too much money for most of us. I think, the Tamron or Sigma equivalents will do the trick at a much lower cost.

Not sure you can use the What is up guys 😂😂😂, know someone else that has that down... Ben Petersen
