“For our ancient Egyptian viewers...” You two are the best at what you do...I don’t shoot SONY nor mirrorless but yet here I am...

I could write a love letter to this lens. Anyone still considering this lens, I've owned it for two years. I have many lenses, Sony and Sigma, and this one is just perfect. Buy it!

Thank you Dpreview for bringing us to the beautiful lake and not hiding the view with toneh.

Chris & jordan the best KZread reviewer I have came across..

The best camera-lens review channel on youtube. you guys are keeping the quality high. You answer all the things I have in my head in your reviews. keep up the good work!

"For our ______ viewers..." This should become a regular.

"fairly husky adult male" hahaha *cuts to jordan* awww...

Dear Chris, over all these years I have been enjoying your wonderful camera and lens reviews. Shout outto the video guy who notoriously does a great job in the background as well. You have a serious fan overseas. Best from Zurich, Joe Sciacca

Definitely thinking of upgrading my Fe 85 1.8 Sony and getting this once the price is low enough / there's a good deal! Those 11 aperture blades!!! Beautiful. Sigma's DN lenses are such an asset for the E mount system right now and I hope this trend of smaller Art series primes will continue with maybe a new 50mm or 18mm!

That's where I want to live too :)

The back-lit images were outstanding, especially the one @8:38! Another fantastic review JCReview, thanks.

Love the measurement conversions!

Was this episode shoot on the A7SIII? It looks like it is.

Great humor, excellent photos, helpful info, loved the video production. Grand slam boys! Thanks 🙏

Nicely done as always. Solid content and great presentation.

Sigma finally starting to make smaller lenses, watch out! Stunning lens, just absolutely stunning! I enjoyed all of the pictures and that says a lot. Also, THIS back-lit portrait @ 8:35, wow... Talk about stunning all the way through this review...

Welcome to Kelowna. I always enjoys your content

Ahhh, thank you. The Noct Scale is back. Need to know how many Nocts I can carry in my bag.

Great review as always.

Thanks so much, just bought this lens and this video did not make me regret it!

Thanks for yet another very entertaining and detailed review. The lens looks great, only I see this review just a month after I purchased the Sony 1.8 one... I certainly don't regret but if something happens to that lens you convinced me to switch...

Hey Guys, I do like you and reviews that much, that I can’t even not wait until end until liking the video 😅

5 years ago they promised us mirrorless cameras will result in smaller lenses. It took some time, but here it is! Look at the Samyang primes for Sony. Or the Tamron zooms. Or this one.

Did they promise "computational photography" as well? Because that's what is being sold here. Without image correction, this lens shows heavy pincushion distortion and heavy vignetting. No free lunch, even if the mirror is omitted.

very nice review, thanks for the great job you guys do ! Any advice about this lens with the Leica SL 601 ?

Excellent .. thanks for another great review

Love you guys, but this feels like an understatement: "is not that much more expensive [than the Sony 85 1.8]" = Literally is double the price. Would have loved at least a mention of the Samyang/Rokinon 85 1.4 that cost half the price too. Is the Sigma $600 better?

Awesome review!

Can you select the focus pull distance on this sigma lens when it is on the panasonic L-mount cameras, like native panasonic lenses?

The flare at 8:25 is excellent - it complements the portrait really well.

Woww. Deatailed explained. When it will be available in India ? I have the older Sigma 85mm 1.4 ver. i will exchange with new one..i found old ver is bit heavy

I would love to see a comparison between this and the "newer" Lumix S series 85mm f1.8 lens.

What do you think about the AF speed when comparing to the native Sony 85mm f1.8?

Any idea if they are going to launch a ver 2 for canon ef anytime soon. Been holding off picking the 85 because of that

Any thoughts on how the Sigma stacks up compared w/ the Samyang 85mm 1.4?

Not sure if it's really optically better than its predecessor which I happen to own. Distortion and vignetting are pretty strong in this new version, and even though easily correctable in post, it comes with IQ degradation. Using a Canon EOS R5, I have no option to use this lens anyway, but even if I did, I am not sure whether I'd make the switch. Yes, I'd love to have 85/1.4 as compact as the new DG DN, but strong vignetting and distortion make it a little less attractive. There's no such thing as a free lunch, I guess.

Nice Footage Jordan... was that the S1H? Which lenses were you using?

What was this filmed on? The picture is amazing!

Excellent review thank you. Would you do a comparison to the Samyang 85mm f/1.4? Thanks!

Great review and beautiful scenery and I need to visit Canada after this pandemic is over.

2:04 BIG fan of this sample photo timing.

Hello Sir , which camera is best for photography in Sony full frame body

I own 85 1.4 GM, I'm considering to change to 85 1.4 DG DN. Any thoughts?

Thanks for the awesome review. Do you know if Sigma will be bringing theses lenses to Nikon Z?

How does it compare to the Lumix 85mm 1,8 when you zoom in on the eyes sharpness wise?

Canada is so far up north, I always have the impression they are comparable to Siberia. Very cold and not much sun. But seeing Chris in a TShirt and shorts, there is hope.

Great review. Thank you. I ordered the 85/1.8, until I came across this lens........cancelled the 85/1.8 order, and now the Sigma is on the way. The Sigma retails for 1050 on Amazon, currently, and for this price, it is a no-brainer for the size, quality and the wide aperture.

It is a great lens. However, once the hood is on, don't expect the lens to look small in any way.......with the hood on, it is just a little bit smaller than say the 135mm f/1.8 GM, which is a big prime by any measure. Without the hood, and compared to its f/1.4 peers, the 85mm f/1.4 DG DN is certainly much smaller........but I personally always shoot with the hood on.

8:50 made me laugh more than I care to admit.

Would u recommend selling the Gmaster for the sigma or just keep the Gmaster?

NIce lens, especially the "aperture mute button" :) Now waiting for Fujinon XF 50mm f/1.0 review which also has the cat-eye effect wide open... and some CA

Enjoyed the "look" at that beautiful lake and countryside. The more you guys show of O Canada, the more I want to come visit, maybe stay. Meantime, those of you who do not have a thousand bucks for an 85mm f1.4, do what I did, cheap out, and buy a Rokinon 85 1.4 for $267 dollars US. ah Jordan, let me guess. you shot this one on the S1H. man the video is pretty.

Chris: great lens! Jordan: great lens! Bee: did that guy just cuss me out for *landing on a flower*?!! Seriously, great review as always; was interesting to see the video(Jordan) / photo (Chris) split on the recommendations for the L-Mount version, but it makes sense.

The conversions 🤣

I've got me covered with a batis 85 1.8. IS + weather sealing.

Quails gate so nice there. Cheers from the NWT.

What lens are you using for this KZread video? The image clarity and color grading is awesome!

Yes!! My hometown 😍

could you please review the new sigma 100mm - 400mm DG DN lense?

Sigma single handily pulled down the cost of using e mount verses ef rf and z mount, really looking forward to the 70200 that's yet to come

which camera did you use for this episode? there are noticeable purple in the shadow of Chris's face.

Sigma led the way in building oversized lenses back then and set every player in the market (even Sony) to follow them, which has made us even doubt our idea that mirrorless systems should be compact. As a result, we have huge RF prime and fixed f2 lenses, bulky S1 series, and even a new weight unit , Noct 58. But guess what, they change their direction with several recent products, which is pretty surprising. Hope they would bring us more excitements like this in the future.

But in fact, Sigma revolutionized the world of objective lenses. so much so that, even after years, the Canon RF 85mm f/1.2 couldn't beat the Sigma 85mm f/1.4 which costs less than half the price and delivers the same quality.

Very funny Chris. Nice comparison. How about a vid on adapted glass for L mount users. Best and budget alternatives

I really love the way you guys declared Nikon's Noct lens as a weighing standard in all your lens reviews. Lol.

So,,Can we say it's better than master bokeh 105mm F1.4??Regardless of weight& size and price?!!🤔cuz i just focus the better result... thanks

How is the manual focus ?

It would be cool to see a comparison of this New Sigma 85 f1.4 DN with the new Canon RF 85 f1.2 L , I know both lenses are sharp, so I would like to see just a comparison of the contrast and subject separation ( or 3D pop ) wide open. and the quality of the background blur wide open. and also a bokeh ball comparison wide open. the new Canon RF is a lens that I am sure is great, but personally I don't want an 85 lens that weighs 1190g when there is a Sigma 85 that weighs 625g, and I will also take $1.199 over $2.500 any day. so the Canon better have some kind of an edge other than it being f1.2 to justify it's size and weight and price. I know to allot of people the new Canon L f1.2 primes are making them drool and want to go to the Canon system, but for me they are making me want to stay away from the system because of there size and weight. and I'm sure for many people the price.

You were the only reviewer that addressed the weak AF performance of fast moving subjects. I immediately noticed that insufficiency coming from the 85 f1.8

The moment you reattached your lens hood in .3 seconds sadly gave me the realization of how incompetent I am at this haha

All right gents, I did subscribed and hope you can move to that beautiful place in this lifetime. :-) BTW, I would have also made a comparision with the new Sigma 65mm F2 lens as the Sony FE 85GM is hopefully soon retired and we will see an optically way superior 85/1.4(1.2?) mark2 soon at a significantly higher price point.

The units of measurement are hilarious!

Hello, what about distortion?

I'm all about sarcasm and nerdy details. Although I do have some corrections: 1:51 1 stone = 14 lbs... so 625g = 1/3.2 Noct = 1.38 lbs. = 0.0984 stone 3:21 1 cubit = 18 in... so 0.85 m = 1.86 cubits

The pedestrian at 4:05 clearly got the 'keep on walking buddy!' look from Jordan. :)
