"You gotta just press record." I love hearing that every day.

The Sigma lens looked way better. However I also wish you'd have shown in the 16-50mm kit lens to compare as well.

The 3$00 bokeh difference. Just bought a A6400 + Sigma 16mm for live streaming. Great video 💯💯💯

Nex6 with the kit 16-50 and the 16mm great photos.. love this system. Also have an RX100M1 & 3, some fantastic pics from those li'l guy as well.

The Sony is trying to focus on your practical light and having issues with it. It's quite distracting compared to the Sigma which is buttery smooth and isn't having issues with that background light.

I really appreciate your real world approach. Most reviews on the lens zoom in on pictures and talk about stuff I can barely see. Admittedly, I am not s professional photographer so that might be the key issue but I really appreciate the no nonsense practical application. Just bought one because of this review

It would be amazing if manufacturers provided T-stop values for their products. The primary reason I will pay more for fast lenses is because even accounting for light transmission differences a 1.4 should be brighter than a 2.8. I love the night so I go for fast glass in the hopes that the T-stop isn't too far off. The option to get good subject separation with a thin plane of focus is a juicy bonus.

I definitely notice a difference. The sigma has a sharper image and the color is more saturated.

I have a Canon M50 and I’ve been wanting that Sigma lens ever since y’all first showed it last year.

I do really like the size difference and see it as a bonus to a small package; especially for vlogging.

The clarity of the Sigma lens is noticeable, but the size of that smaller Sony lens is quite impressive for how good that looks. That might work well for our cockpit someday :) Thanks for this video! Matt and Doc Paradox Aviation

This was super helpful. I just got my first camera Sony ev10. Now I know where to start for my starter lens.

Exactly what I've been searching for in the last hour. Luckily I found this video! Thanks mate, most likely I'm gonna get one 😉👍🏻

Love the stuff! What would be best lens for filming full body golf instruction videos. I hate the way 12mm looks and 16 or 18 is right. I can knock out a couple more feet to help distance. Any suggestions as I’m going in circles Camera is Sony 6400

My friend I have a question.. Does that Sony lens work with a a7Rii full-frame camera? or what lens do you recommend at a low price for my a7Rii among these 2 or is there another option?

@christofferweiss3976

It does work, but as it is made for a crop sensor (E mount, full frame is FE) it will leave a circle in the full frame...

Thanks for showing some love to this lens! It's great for the price but most reviwers out there I think they test it all wrong. This thing only has 5 elements and was designed for vlogging/environmental portraits om the cheap. That means far/infinity focus is compromised and it probably has plenty of field distortion because of the simple build, so test shots of landscapes or architecture often make it look really bad. Not saying sony can't make ot better but it is definitely better than the kit lens at what it does best.

Subbed. This channel is awesome. Always great advise and insight. Love it 🤙🏻

Yesss been hearing hype about the 16mm, thank you for this!

I have the Sigma 30mm, but it zooms way too much in. I was thinking of buying the 16mm from Sigma, but the lens itself is so big! This video REALLY helped me! I was thinking "of course no one is gonna talk about using such expensive things as just a webcam, that's silly" - and here you are, showing exactly what I'm looking for! THANK YOU! I just ordered the Sony 16 mm!

I'm using that Sony 16mm lens almost 6 years on my APSC sensor cameras. Lens are keep doing great job!

Thanks for the quality contents! 💛✨

Honestly, was about to buy a sigma 1.4 as I have wanted for a while (real estate videos). Seeing as I’ve been doing well with my f/ 3.5 16mm in terms of light, 2.8 would already let a lot more light in - and as it’s so cheap I’m going to buy that first, and if I’m not happy I’m going to buy the sigma too

Literally the exact comparison video I needed

Dude, this is so helpful! Really thank you! Blessing

Thanks for showing the difference so helpful :)

Id love to use this with zv-e1 does it work with that? Even if i have to crop in a little bit?

I'm still using the kit lens that came with the M50. Thanks for the info!

I love your reviews and info.

you can sharpen your live stream webcam on OBS as well. Right click the camera once attached, filters > sharpen . Probably stick to a 25-35% max.

Thank you so much for this explanation :)

Great review, thanks!

The difference for these type of YT videos is not worth $300 imo. Thank you for videos like this.

I’m using a Canon 70D and I have 6 lenses that I picked up on the cheap but looks great for a hobbies. Just because something is old doesn’t mean it’s obsolete.

Thanks for the comparison!

great video, I own the Sigma 16 but not worth for me to get the Sony prime 16, because I already own the kit lens that came with my a6400. If F-stop isn't an issue then the kit lens is great, light, and still get the job done. Just my thoughts. If I didn't have the kit lens, then yes, I might invest in a Sony prime 16 but for vlogging or talking points on a tripod.

I have a Sony-made “Hasselblad” 16 on my a6000 (Hasselblad’s short-lived APS-C camera was really a Sony) and the Sigma lens on a MFT body. My Sony “Hasselblad” lens cost $149 4 years ago. I used it for every day and street use for 3 years. I bought my Sigma used for $200 - because of great reviews. Yes - it IS very heavy. I like both pieces of glass!

Thanks for the info. Love both lens for sure will be buying the Sony.

Thank you. I bought the objective today. delivery Monday 👌

Man a nice advice Thanks a lot

Was sigma lens set at 1.4 aperture? You will notice a difference if you shoot in aperture priority mode, to get max bokeh

Thank you for making a more affordable option for this lens! I have a couple MOMENT lenses for my iPhone and they work wonders! Wide screen and fish eye options too.

Thanks I’m buying the Sony EV 10 and the Sigma16 from your links. You earned it. 👊🏼

I think the Sony 16mm is better for outside vlogging if you dont want alot of attention and the size. And the sigma 16mm is great for more indoor on a tripod.

Morning cup of coffee + Think Media = a great start to the day!

Great video🔥 Thk u 🔝

depends on the situation youre recording in but the difference between 2.8 and 1.4 is 1.4 has a warmer background i feel.

the lower f-stop on the sigma lens is why the price tag is so high. also paired with the autofocus on the lens. If you go with the sony 16mm you'll be better off if you use manual focus and have decent lighting so you can keep your ISO low. You wont have as deep of a focus range, but it'll still look nice.

Do you need to turn up your studio lights with the Sony lens? The reason I ordered the Sigma (still waiting for it) is that I thought I wouldn't need such bright lights when recording or streaming.

Thank you for the great overview! Let me ask you a question. I bought Sony ZV-E10 camera, mainly for recording video lessons (yoga), in my studio that has rather low lighting. I need your advise about lens. Which one you can suggest me to buy? The point is that I’m not doing “talking head”, I’m working in a 3 to 7 meters distance with a low lightning. Is Sigma 16mm f1.4 is the optimal solution for me, or you can suggest something better? Thanks in advance for your help! 🙏🏻

I have a Sony 16 mm 2.8, a Sony 20 mm 2.8, a Sony 50mm 1.8, and a Sony 18-55mm 3.5-5.6. Essentially, I never used the zoom. And they all have been sitting in a drawer since I got my RX100m5 But I'd like to add an Astro prime and a tele prime, for my new 6600...

Would it work for full frame?

great video thank youuu

Hello! I recently purchased the Sony zv e10 camera. It's my first camera ever (i want to use it for filming my youtube video's), so I am absolutely clueless about camera's. When I start my camera, it doesn't film anything. It's very blurry and you can only see the colors changing, but I can't actually film with it. Is this because I didn't attach an extra lens to it? I thought I could use it without buying a lens. Or maybe it's something in the settings? I feel like an idiot but if anyone knows please let me know.

Hi, can I check why is your background light flicking when the Sony 16mm lens is on? Is the lens hunting for focus (because the lens is not letting in enough light for the camera)? Thanks.

Going to have to check out these 2 lenses 👀👀

Great video 💪🏾

The only difference I've noticed was in lighting but for a started on doing videos seems like a good option

You can get the kit lens 16-50 brand new for like 150 and its stabilized but it only goes to f3.5

I just picked up the 16-35mm gm lens but if I didn’t have the budget for it, I don’t see anything wrong with picking up the cheap lens just to achieve the wide look!

Great video. BUT I really like that black sweater you're wearing! Where did you get it?

I got one more question, would the sony 16mm be great for photography use as well?

Thanks you. TMTV this video very good. from korea

the autofocus on the sony 16mm f2.8 is horrible, look at the light in the background 2:25 😵💩

Curious, in this comparison video, is the footage we're seeing the raw files or is there any color grading on them?

I love the 16mm f2.8 on my a6300 for gimbal work

I have Sigma 19mm f2.8 and wanted to change it to 16mm f1.4 But it's pretty big and heavy.Wonderful lens

Is the Sigma a real improvement from the kit 16-50mm lens for the a6400 regarding video ? There is no stabilizazion what scares me a bit, but that background blur is craaaazy !

Would you recommend the Sony zv e10 for real estate vlogging and property tours?

Hey there ! I shot a video podcast today, with the Sony 6400 and the Sigma 1,4 16mm but I was disappointed, it had some noise and the focus was off, what could be the problem with the settings or just general ? The background is Dark grey is that maybe the Problem ? I was on PP7, hat the settings to 25p 50M - 1/50 - 2,8 - iso 500 Even after color grading and noise reduction it wasn’t so focused 😞 It’s so disappointing

I just got the a6400. Planning on getting a rig set up for a KZread channel. I need all the tips.

With an f2.8 can you still turn on bokeh mode on the vze10? Or will it really not give you anything?

So yiu are saying thr 4k video crop can be eliminated with thr sony lens? Please suggest

Yes there is a good difference. The Sony is not as soft makes things brighter in comparison although very nice and I'd imaging better than the kit lens. The sigma though is very soft and clear, woirth the dough. Thanks for all the great videos.

HUGE difference! Fist off the image is greener, grainier, more cropped in and not as clear. I would say go with the Sigma. :) Still, the Sony isn't bad. Just not as good.

100% agreed. The Sigma looks so buttery smooth and warm tones, the Sony lens doesn’t look as natural, but it’s a matter of cost. I think the Sigma is worth the money premium.

The only thing I don't like regarding some of those lenses the small pancake ones is that in low light situations they tend to focus elsewhere.

I use the Sigma 16mm with the Sony a6400! It's a great combo, especially for KZreadrs👍

One of the best decisions I made was to invest in Sony GM glass. Owning a 16-35 GM makes the pancake a no brainer for me and my lite kit outdoor vlogging.

Hey I have a Sony 16mm and the photos keep coming out blurry. Should I take it apart?

both are great for vlogging, but f2.8 doesn’t have oss where as the 1.4 does which is something you definitely want for vlogging

Sony has steady shot

Hello Think Media! I am a complete noob to cameras and hoping you can give insight. I have the oldest sony a6000 and I bought that Sony 16mm 2.8 pancake lens. I'd like to use it as a webcam for conference calls but my face is just all blurry while my background is sharp. Hoping you can direct me to a solution. Gladly appreciate it!

So this video is two years old . What would you recommend getting now instead of the sigma 16 for better video and pictures quality ?

On a crop sensor like APS C, f1.4 isn't really that large an aperture. Its a full frame equivalent aperture is somewhere in the low 20s.

Next question is how much of a difference there is between the Sony 16mm f2.8 and the kit-lens at 16mm 3.5.

That sigma 16mm isn't just good for videos, but photos. I have taken so many great photos from that Sigma. I never even sold it after I sold my aps-c a6300 I kept it once I went full frame.

I'm just waiting for your review of the new Tamron 17-70 F2.8 VC for run'n'gun work.

It would be interesting to see a comparison between these lenses and an iMac webcam lense and an iPhone camera.

I think the Biggest difference I noticed was the "flicker" that seemed to be present in the background after changing the lens. May not be a technical issue, but overall quality was much the same.

The difference between the bokeh is there. The sigma just creates a better bg blur since it can be stopped down to 1.4. Gosh. I’m so tempted to buy the Sigma. This made it even more difficult to decide. That Sony lens is a better value, though. I could purchase additional accessories with the money saved, for sure.

are you rocking the RPX?

I love the Sony Pancake lens, for that reason... is a Pancake! Literally fits in my coat pocket even on my a7s! I've sold and repurchased this lens twice! Everytime I let it go, I miss it. Awesome comparison!
