    Hi Mark, Great video and always fun to watch. Im currently thinking of buying a new lense, so question for you. Which one would you recommend out of the Sony 11mm 1.8 and the Sigma 16mm 1.4? I know you use the Sigma very often and have highly recommended it previously. Also as your using the M2s Gimbal, how did you find balancing this lense on the Gimbal? Another one just for interest, does the Sigma 16mm balance well with the Zv-E10 on the M2s Gimbal? Thanks in advance ❤️

  • @MarkBennettCameraCrisis

    I will personally use the Sigma more because I like it as a studio len and I like that it’s not so wide that it distorts my face. but for a gimabal, the 11mm is much better. I can use that in the M2S with ease. the Sogma 16 does not fit in the M2S and barely balances on the M3.

    Great review, as usual. As a narrative filmmaker, I always look at lenses as to how they could be used to help tell a story. A wide angle lens like this 11mm would have a specific use. Since it does distort the head quite dramatically, I would use it to convey a character's state of mind. Mostly, a disturbed state of mind or an altered reality. Either way, it's a really good lens. And seeing that it has literally no focus breathing makes it a no brainer in those altered state of mind scenarios. Looking forward to your comparison between these lenses. Good work.

I shoot underwater and if I can get close to subjects, I could potentially do fish portraits and reefscapes with the same lens. Or would the sigma 16 be better suited you think? This plus the 50mm macro should have me sorted I hope.

    I make vertical videos with my steadicam and my canon 10-18mm doing myself an adapter for that purpose, I like the way it looks, but sure, the problem is that 4.5, I was filming cosplayers at a local convention and I feel like the 3.5 from the 10-22 could be the least for a nicely brighter image, a full frame along a 16mm f2.8 would be ideal... but this lens in the very same context will be just perfect. I was going to use the widest side anyway, so that f1.8 at that darker stage, will be unstoppable. I have an older Sony E body and I was looking for the 16mm f2.8 just because its so small and quite wide, but I think that is no longer needed, this 11mm is my only option now.

  • @panzerschreckpete
    @panzerschreckpete2 жыл бұрын

    Sony absolutely blew my lens acquisition pan (and budget) out of the window with this, the 15mm and the 10-20mm. What did surprise me was the affordability. Even at NZ prices, the sony three are justifiably affordable. I already have the Sigma trio plus their 18-50mm kit lens replacement, but the 11mm expands the potential field of view particularly for indoors video given the low light capability. I see the 10-20mm as a very practical purchase as well, given that the Tamron equivalent is close to the same price, while the 10-18mm Sony predecessor was a PoS lens in terms of QC and was very overpriced for what it delivered. I think the 15mm will be the more aspirational of the trio, as I already have the Sigma, but one huge factor is the size and weight advantages of the new Sony lenses. The Sigma 16mm is a humongous beast by comparison, which is fine on a tripod or a bigger gimbal like the Crane M3, but a lot of my projects involve top down shots so lighter and smaller is a major factor.

    I haven't owned a "real" camera since my Canon T3i back about 7 years ago. Just now getting back into cameras and I'm going to grab a Sony a6100. I'm just having a toss up between the Sony 11mm 1.4 and the TAMRON 12-20MM 2.8 (which I also watched your video on). I love the flexibility to zoom in with the TAMRON but that 1.8 on the Sony really has me torn. I want to use my choice for live streaming which would be great for low light and it'd likely not get moved at all. But also I want to use the lens for KZread so the TAMRON would be great for that 👀 It's a tough choice. Thank you for the great videos on both lenses! ♥

    Hi Mark! I was hoping I could get some advice. I have recently purchased my own “little Dougie” which I am planning to use for vlogging an upcoming trip. It’s my first interchangeable lens camera so brand new to the world of lenses. I love the wide angle look and was going to purchase the Sony 10-18mm but saw the new 10-20mm and decided to go for that. I have been testing the ZV E10 & 10-20mm lens for a few days and although it looks great I have a few concerns. I am having to put the footage through Catalyst to stabilise so filming with 1/200 shutter speed as you suggested, which is fine (in daylight) I took this out this evening and with the 1/200 it’s just so dark! (F4 & Auto ISO where I increased to max) I can hardly see myslef. I will be planning on vlogging days and nights so thinking this will be a problem. My question is. Do you think I should go for the Sony 11mm lens instead? It’s still wide but much better at handling low light…right? Or would the low light issue be the exact same as the 10-20 because I would still be filming with 1/200 shutter? (Hope i made sense 😅) thanks

    The 11 will be much better - the 1.8 lets in almost 8 times the light as an F4. Also, catalyst works really well these days - so you can leave your shutter speed at 1/50 and still get very good results. If you are moving quickly - you may want to bump it to 1/100. But try the f1.8 and the shutter of 1/50 and your problems in lowlight should be solved

    Important question!! I have the Sigma 16mm that I use and enjoy as my ultra-wide angle lens and studio lens for talking head, but I want a smaller lens for vlogging (the Sigma is too heavy and it could be wider). I was offered a $190 trade-in value at a local camera store for it, would it be a good choice to trade it for the Sony 11mm f1.8? The only thing I'd be missing from it is a go-to studio lens with the really nice bokeh. Thanks Mark!

Wondering if more concentrated color on smaller sensor. Sort of favoring APSC, especially the lighter weight.

My goal is to make videos of my and other bands, just close by and usually in not too much light (rehearsals and small gigs), so the 11mm would be great. But I am really bothered by that barrel distortion and the need to always correct this..? Did you (have to) correct all in this video? Or is the barreling not always present? And for my purpose, would you expect (less/more) issues? You mentioned that you hoped for a firmware update to correct this. Is there already such an update (for camera or lens)?? Thx

    In your opinion, what's the better lens to purchase for a ZV-E10 when doing overall filming for KZread? I bought my daughter a ZV-E10 - Sirui 35mm Nightwalker lens, and I have the new Sirui 23mm Sniper on the way. But I feel like I made somewhat of a mistake and should have gotten her an all around good lens for everyday filming first. The included lens with the ZV-E10 (16mm-50mm) is not sufficient for her to do quality work, in my opinion. Anyway, I have watched both of your videos on the Sony 11mm and 15mm. Along with plenty of other videos you provide on your channel. Great work by the way. Are either of these a good choice, or is there another option you would recommend that I purchase? I am thinking $300-$650. Not sure if that's a decent amount to work with. Any information would help. You have reviewed so many lenses and done all the work, so I trust in your opinion and I appreciate all of your efforts and knowledge.
