Great Video Jason! Stumbled across your page a few days ago and after watching some of your stuff it made me want to get back into Photography for the first time since 2013 so i purchased this lens and a Sony A7iii based on your review videos. Look forward to learning more from your page!

Jason I know this video is old, but I come to all your reviews before I decide on my purchases. And you’ve never let me down yet. I plan on getting this lens for my a7iv and I am so excited to finally get a zoom lens over my sigma 35 1.4

I wanted the Tamron since it came out and now that I finally decided to upgrade I’m going to get this one. I don’t mind the weight if it has a better build quality and it looks better. Once again you can’t go wrong with Jason Vong 👍🏻

Love the new format Jason! CES looked like it was blast! Also my response to the bokeh article: bokeh is bokeh. Lol

Yo Jason Vong really do be out here doing the best reviews. Top 5 dead or alive.

Fantastic review. Thank you for the honesty 👍

Your reviews are my fav! Looking for the perfect all around lens for vlogging and photo/video. What would you recommend?

Fun and beautiful review. Very informative and enjoyable at the same time. Thank you for making it.

Awesome review, I already have the Tamron 28-75 so I will stay with it since I like the quality of my images and how light it is. When will you do a review of the Sony Ecb-B1m microphone? How does it work for loud music in weddings and live events?

Been waiting for this video. Thanks.

Great review as always! I am in the market to buy a standard zoom for my sony... the only option within my budget is the Tamron and this Sigma. I have seen a lot of people facing this issue with dust (just after a month or two). I really wanted to buy the Sigma but after reading those I want to go for Tamron. I guess you have used Sigma for a while, if so could you please post a picture of the front element or share your overall experience? Thanks!

Hi Jason, I'd like your opinion on the new PD Bags!

Always such great content!

Oh my god, thank you for this one. I've been stuck back and forth between the Tamron 28-75 and the Sony 24-105, and this lens solves my problems with both.

Exactly my situation! So glad i held out for this one. It really is a little heavy though, haven't gotten round to using it for events or travelling proper yet.

I also thought it was too heavy for casual use so I then rented the tamron 28-75mm. Tamron was great and light but then I realized I shot half of my images at 24mm when I rented the Sigma. So I had to go with the 16-55mm F2.8 on APSC. That’s a 24-83mm équivalent and super light! Yes, it’s APSC but sometimes for travel the combination of weight and focal length matters the most! Thanks again for a funny video!

Man I love your work ! Good to be back on track....!!!

Hi Jason, thank you very much for all videos. Can you please also add some footage that using lens with apsc body too? I saw your reviews are amazing.

Thanks for this video! I’m getting mine in the mail today 😁😁 what gimbal do you recommend with this lens set up?

At first I thought this is just a good lens of Sigma, I got it, but when I saw the close focusing part, I decide to order one right now...Thanks Vong for this great review, very very useful!

waiting for that new 70-200mm from Sigma and this 24-70mm, I might add this to my arsenal too!

@@brendantaylor2623 Because it's expensive, has onion rings, and not particularly sharp @ 70mm? Sony associates GM with sharpness and bokeh, and at $2600 they better deliver them. Would also like to see if the Sigma is more lightweight than the GM.

Yesss plz review the new Peak Design everyday backpack v2!

Yo Jason! Nice vid mate! I’m following you for a time so I’ve the kind of trust with your reviews 😂well you helped me also out with choosing between a Sony or a sigma! Sigma it is 💯

I just got this lens yesterday, I’m freaking blown away.

I already have the Tamron 28-75 and I love it. Probably would have got this one if they came out at the same time though. However now I’m just waiting on that sigma 70-200 and 70-180 from Tamron to see which one of those I should get.

Jason- Great video! I'm trying to decide between this lens and the sony 24-105 f4 for professional portraits of all types. Most importantly, is the Sigma sharper than the Sony?? I want the versatility of up to 105, but also want the best IQ. Thanks!

Hi! Great review! thank you for sharing your knowledge. I wanted to know your opinion about this lens on an a6300 body. Since the 6300 don't have in-body stabilization, Will the image stabilization be an issue?

Great video. It will be my next lens for sure. I just would like to ask, is that some new PSP at 9:31? :)

This is a great option, with weather sealing and short focus distance. I bought the Sony 16-55, for APSC, it costs 200 more, no weather sealing, not great minimum focus distance (although the same IQ as Sigma 16mm f/1.4 more or less) . A7M3 + Sigma is more bang for your buck than A6600+ Sony 16-55. I sold my FF cameras and bought 2 A6100 which are great (300 less than A6400). This is tempting if in 2020 i may get a FF option. I bought also the RX100M7, which is really great for travel. Close to A6100 + 16-55 in daylight (at 200% you notice softer corners and less contrast, but otherwise hard to tell), The RX100M7 is better than a Sony APSC with the cheap kit zoom 16-50. Anyway great review. I think the 4mm at the wide end are a huge deal for a travel zoom. 28-75 may be ok for events, people photos/fashion, but too limiting for travel. buying a separate wide angle would cost more than the price difference between the Tamron and Sigma. Also switching lenses when traveling increases the risk of dust on the sensor, drops and spills.

Jason, another good video. I got this lens for the L-mount 😀.

Great video Jason. Love your work. I have the Tamron 28-75 on my A7iii is the Sigma worth changing to? I am a wedding videographer and would look to keep the Tamron as a backup and us the sigma as the main lens. Thanks bud keep up the good work

Hi Jason, Big thanks for an awesome review! May I have your opinion as to which option is better as I'm contemplating on investing on a Sony mirrorless system: 1. Option 1: A7iii + FE 24 1.4 GM + FE Sigma 24-70 DG DN ART. 2. Option 2: A7iii + FE 35 1.8 + FE 85 1.8 + Sigma 24-70 DG DN ART. I do love the 24mm FL as I did own a Nikon 24mm 1.4G then shooting with it ostly portraits, food, landscapes and cityscapes. Thank you Jason.

Great review Jason. Came upon this video while doing research on this lens. Quick question: I noticed you are using the Sony mic in the footage of you in the 🌧 in Japan. Do you recommend this mic over the Rode mics?

Hey Jason, which ND filter would you recommend for this lens? I usually shoot slog2! Shooting travel video. Thanks in advanced.

Yes, please do a review of the Peak Design bags/slings

Which mike do you use Jason? Details on how you make videos. Love your videos. Pisssssssss!!

What made you want the tamron over the sigma?

Great review Jason, how did this thing do in low light? Anyone else have some takes on this? cheers

This was one of the most impressive lenses I've used. Its near sharp as primes.

Nice video!! What gimbal were you using?

I would love to know if there is any difference between the canon version + mc11 and the native e-mount in terms of focus accuracy

Very informative and hella funny! I really don't mind the weight, so the for sharpness and this price-point... looks worth it. If the autofocus is legit, I'm buying.

How’s the AF for video in low light conditions? Is it as reliable a the Sony GM 24-70mm?

Thanks Jason, in original video when you bought it in Tokyo, you said two things. 1) that you would sell this lens after the review & 2) that you had 24-70 2.8 gm and you'd never get rid of that. Hence my question. I get that Sigma is best value for money, but if money was no object which would you recommend?

Nice review thanks for sharing

Hej Jason. Great video as always. Can I get your opinion. I am debating if I Should get the sony 24-70 mm gm or the sigma 24-70mm. If money wasnt Something you factor in, which One would you pick?

Thanks for this vid Jason! Which stabilizer are you using at 0:49 and 11:40?

Good review. A question: Is it possible to adjust and update this lens while mounted on a Sony camera, *without the need of purchasing and using the Sigma USB Dock?*

Yes please do some bag reviews! I need to get a new one 😭

Would have liked to see some more direct autofocus comparisons between this and the tamron. Like the autofocus tests you did with the other art lenses

This is gonna be the lens I pick up for my new Sony a7iii I plan on picking up! Plus sigma has their new 14-24 2.8 which will cover almost all the range with two lenses. Now just need to wait for that dig,a 70-200 to complete the line up.

literally just left BH and tried out the lens on my A7R4, and yea that baby is sharp. not evening thinking twice about especially at the price point compared to GM. its a GO!

saving up for this amazing lense

hi! thx for your video, i just ask you, how are the performances of autofocus for sport photography? ( basketball ) thx a lot regards

Jason, I have the 24-105 F/4G from Sony right now and I absolutely love it. But for the shallower DoF and portraits I tend to use my canon 50mm f/1.4 (on a Sigma MC-hammer adapter). Would you recommend swapping the Sony with the Sigma?

three years later i'm having a similar situation, recenty bought my A6700 and a Sony 18-105 F/4G since it was somewhat affordable after spending on the camera itself, I've been enjoying it so far but sometimes i feel the need to have more aperture available when I try taking pictures of moving subjects. Did you get the Sigma lens? how did it go?

from my own experience the bokeh is great, light spot are circular for me rather than oval like with the sony gm, understandably the bokeh isnt as good as most primes but its been pretty good for me. In the video i see it as well when you for instance pause at 8:07 or a bit later the bokeh seems perfectly fine to me, could be because im just a hobby photographer though

Please compare between the "Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN Art for Sony" & the "Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 RXD Lens for Sony E". Thank you very much

when the sigma 70-200 f2.8comes out?

hi, nice review. for a future a7m4, would you advise this sigma DN ? I have heard that it should be better than sony for photo but less good AF and eye detection in video. a pity you didn't test the jump with 24-70 dn to see how it behaves.

I'd like to see travel backpacks compared, not only peak design or LowePro but also those advertised in ebay/amazon that are anti-theft and have external usb for phone/camera charging. Keep up the good work!

I hope you have the chance to review the peak design v2 bags!

Good stuff bro 👍🏾

Good video! Now if only you could review the 35mm F1.2 Art. =D

J.V. can you please suggest three (3) lenses you would use with the a7iii for sports

awesome, thank you very much, very helpful video, also i see that you have the weebil S, what where your setting to the motors since that setup is kinda front heavy. i heard from a creator that he had to sell the weebil S due to not working properly. thanks in advance !!

Thank you for the great review I shoot primes (Sony 35mm 1.4 GM, Sigma 50mm 1.4 and Sigma 85mm 1.4) on my A7IV whenever I can because I'm a fast glass addict but this Sigma 24-70 is my safety net

Thank you. Looking for great autofocus performance on a gimbal for Sony Mirrorless. This looks like it would be a good choice. Thank you.

Another awesome review, straight to the point and informational, #cantgowrongwiththevong

I know this is an older video so maybe you could make another on this lens regarding the dust problem. I understand the new lenses have better seals but I'd still like your opinion.

You literally havethe best reviews bc you cover everything mostly.

Hi Jason. Do you think this sigma or the tamron are good enough lenses to fully exploit the a7r4 high res sensor? Or better to just jump straight to the Sony GM?

Would you suggest this lens for video work or more for portrait use ?

Review the peak design bags please! Everyday back pack in 20 and 30L Everyday sling in 6 and 3L. Thanks in advance. Can you also put up a travel guide recommendation for Japan?

Loving the script!

How’s the AF for video? Is it as fast and reliable as the Sony GM 24-70mm f/2.8 in low light shooting video? Thank you for your time

I just recently got the samyang 24-70 2.8 and in comparison what would you choose? Please reply

Thanks Jason. Puns are useful for transitions. Even corny ones. :)

Please tell me what is better for video shooting Sigma 24-70mm Art or Sony 24-70mm GM. I will rarely take photos. Sony A7 m3 camera

Jason, Do you think we will see a 24-70GM mark II? It seems like the GM is a bit dated (just sold mine) and that the sigma and tamron offers some benefits like being lighter and having close focus. I mean, Canon released two RF lenses that covers this focal length already. Maybe Sony could release an F2 as well

I see you using the weebill S with sony. Do you have any connection issues? Do you have some kind of "smothness issues" when you go continuisly to one side. Like making a round focusing one object? I aks because i am having some issues where i dont know if its me or the gimbal. BTW nice video. I am waiting for my sigma 24-70 since 4 weeks. Gave back my sony 24-70 due to the close focus length and otherwise similar features.

Dude, I was waiting for this, can you tell me whether it works with Sony A7S3 just like Sony GMII 24-70mm lens??

Great, it's essential for my work

So now with Sigma 28-70 out - which one would you pick?

Hey Jason, thanks for the video...I might go with the Tamron because of the weight. Btw what are you using for your in-studio microphone setup?

I’m so undecided... can’t decide if getting the sigma 24-70 f2.8 or the Sony 70-200 f4... I know they are extremely different, but I have budget only for 1 lense... advice?

Please review the PD sling 10L v2, and show off how tripods look attached to it. Not one reviewer yet has shown this. I have the v1 and like the tripods strap, but looking to upgrade if its worthwhile.

24-70 mm is very versality👍👍... i use the Sony 24-70 GM Lens and i‘m happy with this lens. Today i‘ve bought the Sigma 14-24 Wideangle Lens and i‘m so curious about the Results 😀

Is there a autofocus noise? Is the on camera audio useable ? thanks for this review

Hey Jason, I have the G Master 24-105 f4, would you say the extra focal length is worth the drop in aperture or would you rather have the 2.8?
