7 TIPS for Sigma 16MM F1.4 in 7 MINUTES

For the past few months, I've been shooting exclusively on this lens. Took a lot of bad photos and some good ones. By going out and shoot, I really got to experience this lens. A wide-angle lens can be pretty interesting if you learn how to use it !!

    Thanks for this so much. We just got this lense but know nothing about how to properly use it haha. We want to use it for vlogging so my question is when you're on the go an moving/holding it (on a gimbal of course) how do you keep it focused? it continues to blur and then autofocus and it's quite annoying. Is there a way to turn off the blur background? Sorry for the 210000 questions but any help would be appreciated. Thank you again!

    Be aware that on the 6000 series, the field of view is cropped in by a 1.5X factor. so the 16mm LOOKS like a 24mm, on a full frame camera. So it's wide on the a6000, but not THAT wide.
