Great video this might be my first zoom lens.

Interesting

Thanks for the video. I plan on getting a full frame zoom for run and gun to use it on komodo with speedbooster. However, I see that in some of the footage you shot there is noticeable amount of jerking caused by the OIS motor. Therefore, I wonder if it will be better to use something without the OIS then stabilize in post for smoother handheld shots. Have you found the optical stabilization motor to be a problem? Thanks in advance

with rigged Komodo, u dont need IS on lens.

how you're doing i just got my canon 80d and i want a good zoom lens like the sigma 70-200 and it's all black and i see it takes great pictures. i want a few lens but i don't want to kill my pockets you understand. but i'm in love with sigma products and plus it's cheaper than canon. i guess those photographers can buy them cause they get paid i do this for fun and i want to be good at what i do ya see.i want to get this 70-200 f2.8 over the canon 55-250 so i want your opinion i'm going to buy the 18-35 sigma lens the 35mm 1.4 sigma lens and the 70-200 that's a good combination right? i was thinking 24-105 and the 24-70 lens and my collection is complete

Great video. How good is the ability to manually pull focus on this lens? I have the Canon 24-70mm 2.8 II and focus pulling is terrible, the focus ring slips like crazy and is impossible to put marks on the FF. I do however use the Sigma 18-35 and a set of art photo primes, and although it isn’t perfect, one is able to perfectly repeat focus pulls with marks. Thanks.

Hey Will! Unfortunately pulling focus with this lens is not great. I used it with the Komodo only a handful of times and really used it more with my canon R6 with auto focus

Jeff, Have you compared both the sigma and the canon 24-70? I also have a komodo, and R5 and wondering if spending the extra 1100 on the RF is worth it.

I haven’t personally put them against each other I’ve really just tested against the Sony. However, from my experience, the RF would most likely be lightly better. If you have a Komodo it may make more sense to go sigma as a lot of RF glass gets fixes via software correction in camera on RF canon camera bodies. But if weight is an issue then the 24-70 RF may make the most sense for you.

There's something wrong with IS in this lens. Once you see it it's hard to ignore it, looks like eletronical jitter or sth

Try the great joy 50mm t2.9 plz

I wish they would send me one to test! They had reached out to me about their first lens and then stopped all communication. I’ve tried to reach back out and they won’t get back to me so don’t think it will happen unfortunately.

Hi, mate. How does the sigma AF work on Komodo? Is the AF as smooth as with Canon lenses?

The AF on the Komodo is great on the Komodo for a RED camera, but it’s performance depends on the lens. On the 24-70 seems to work fine. But the Komodo is nowhere near as good in the autofocus department as the canon R5/R6 or Sony cameras

@@ReachFilms why would it replace your 18-35 if the 24mm end of the 24-70 sigma vignettes with canon speedbooster which I own as well . So without speed booster it's a 32-93 with no vignette . So it's not a wide angle without canon speedbooster . The sigma 18-35 sigma is a 24-46mm on komodo... much wider unless it too vignettes at the 24mm end .

@@creativegreats6924 it really depends on what I’m filming, if I’m filming in 5k speedbooster, if I’m filming in 6K then most likely no speedbooster.

watched a lot of reviews and image stabilisation always bad - lots of micro judders makes OS version useless thing. Which is awfully shame. did not understand why every reviewer did not pointing this out. also autofocus is incosistently worse that canon ones. sometimes its ok sometimes its not without any reason. this lens definetly is not for the video shoots. which make this lens not so universal and not worthing the price.
