What flashlight are you using in the vid?
may be itys my fault for believing in too much in youtubers ..but peak design sling is shit , yeah it has better build quality ..but it does not have any space inside ..it very uncomformatble to put in and out a camera with zoom lens attached
You convinced me. I just placed my order.
What size is your leather camera strap? Im trying to get that same size as it looks right for me? Great video
This seems like a really nice setup for people whose budget doesn't stretch to the Leica.
This looks like a great solution for me. I’d love for you to show how you wear it, and access gear while you’re wearing it.
I love my A7C paired with my 40mm
How many of you use roller bags? I'm loving this one from Manfrotto!
Can this be used to attach a side grip?
loved this video man. gonna get this bag to try out and that California legal switchblade lol. thanks brotha and keep up the dope videos.
How embarrassing it must be to not look cool.
Some people will buy an expensive item because they have low self confidence
what about recording in 10bits vs 8bits on the A7III? Is the A7C leaning more into the video line of cameras?
Nice build. I'll do the same by slapping that 40mm G lens with the filter kit on my old A7R. That cam is tiny compared to the Mark V and has 36 MP.
Thanks for being straight up. Nice video.
Thanks a lot for honest review!
Will it hold a J-frame model 36 snubbie?
Hey Matt, a fellow Yamamoto!! lol
How would you compare this to the Lunchbox sling ? Thx
That’s my new setup now, the a7cii with the 40mm G. Amazing image quality!!
nice. awesome. you like what you like sir.
I got mine used last year knowing the II was coming. I was upgrading from a a7ii. I love the size of the body. The sensor in the body is arguably one of the best. For the photography that I do, the amount of tweaking I need to do in post is not as much as I used to. The colors on this sensor coming out of the camera are really good. Also 24MP is more than enough for normal people
I keep trying to convince myself to buy this lens but it’s so goddamn boring. I haven’t seen one shot from it that makes me think it’s worth buying.
Maybe you can try renting it??
@@MattYamamoto100 that’s a fair idea, I’ll find a place, thank you.
Enjoyed the video🙌 Btw I'm not really sure if it is the best time to ask but, I was wondering if I can create better distribution through your videos by making them more subtle and also make highly engaging shorts out of them?
Good Video, I agree on the lens hood. It's metal and keeps the lens more discrete and compact. Hoping Sony brings a few more focal lengths to this compact G series.
Ok how camera withount range finder can be Leica killer? The truth is every camera can be Leica killer.
Hi Matt, I have a very silly question for you. I have this lens and love it very much, particularly how sharp it is. I have it paired with my A7RV and love all the detail it can capture. But there is a part of me that wonders is the 35 mm GM significantly sharper? I know that is both bright brighter and has fewer optical flaws, but is it also significantly sharper? Sharpness is my number one priority. Appreciate any and all detailed feedback you might be able to give. Regardless, thank you for your incredible content.
Ordered and really like this sling but I’m 6’ 2” and the strap was not long enough. Disappointed because I liked the bag a lot.
Really?! Sorry to hear that. Do you like to wear the bag really low?
@@MattYamamoto100 Yes, I like to wear lower. Plus I found out that when it's packed (interior and water bottle pocket), it's doesn't lay right because the straps are so far away from you body. It flips to the back pocket is not against your back and the front pocket now faces up.
Focus breathing on these new small prime Sony G lenses is very visible…too bad i was interested by 40mm f2.5 for video on the gimbal but my 17-28 Tamron is better in video without focus breathing , no CA , very sharp and also in photo. In apsc mode i can get 42mm 2.8 in video. But for photo these 40mm and 50mm f2.5 are impressive. I wait a updated 35mm f1.8 gen 2 with the aperture ring and no focus breathing for video/photo
What camera are you running? I use the focus breathing compensation built into my A7Siii and my A7iv. That’s why I like to stick to Sony lenses
@@MattYamamoto100 Sony a7c. I don’t have this feature and don’t want it.I don’t like the trend Sony is doing. Jason Polin made the same opinion during the lens review of latest Sony. They are making lenses with flaw and release new camera that can blur the flaw with digital or trick crop. But that’s not right. When you bought a 17mm you want to use it. You don’t want to finally get a refined 20mm because the lens have flaws. That’s not correct. To my opinion, Sony has badly designed their two linear motor focus. Tamron and old Sony (35f1.8 and 24-105f4) use only one motor and have no focus breathing and are highly love by Sony community. The problem is the new two linear motor in all new Sony lenses. I was a high skill developper and i foresee a difficulty to combine the result of the two motor into one blurry result. I bet they will refine the design in the future or come back to one faster single motor like Tamron or their old designs.
I have my eye on this bag, but I'm wondering, would the camera or something with such thickness fit in the main compartment with a bottle in the bottle compartment?
It really depends on the camera and lens you’re using.
solid review :) it's gonna be my next lens. I too have the 35GM, 24GM, 50/1.2 GM and I just want a compact nice FE G lens for my α7CR
Nice video! Would be cool to know the total rig weight
Ive used the leica q2 and the m11 both are amazing, but i went with the Sony a7c2 with a Zeiss 35mm f2.8 and the Zeiss loxia 50mm my street photography is just as good as using leica
There is 0 chance my D850 is fitting in the Hex. I think the 3L peak design is really pushing it. Especially with a mid sized 135mm lens, I might just have to go with the 6L. Thanks for the video 😊
Sorry, I’d check for you, but the only DSLRs I still own are APSC. Good luck!
Thinking about getting this bag. You said it holds a switch. How about a Kindle? That's what I usually carry with me.
I’ll have to steal my wife’s kindle to check
What do you think of the tomtoc sling?
I have the TOMTOC and love it. The one thing I'm looking for is an external place to put a water bottle. With TOMTOC is has to go inside the bag and I always worry about a leak.
Tomtoc makes good stuff! But I really love the water bottle pouch on the Inateck!
@@MattYamamoto100 Even though I have Tomtoc I just ordered the Inatek specifically for the water bottle holder.
@@bmccook14 And how do you like it? Rich Tomtoc you have 4l or 3.5l? I am also looking for a sling and I am thinking about this one and Tomtoc.
Dude: you got the bag for FREE. Money already exchanged hands. However love the review. Thank you!! I’ve been shopping for a new bag to replace one of my twelve others for my Leica kit.
Hey! Thanks for the kind words! Regarding the statement about money not changing hands…it’s meant to make a distinction between a video like this where I’m free to say whatever I want VS getting paid to do an ad for the company where I’m given strict guidelines on what I can and can’t say. Wotoncraft had zero input and didn’t get to preview the video before it went live. I hope that clears some things up!
It’s cool man. Just ordered a 3.5L and a couple of accessories. Take care
Wat een lang verhaal om te verhullen dat Leica buiten je bereik is.
You (and this video) are awesome. Thanks so much!
Thanks for such a detailed overview Just a few questions: !Were all the test shots filmmed with the Sony 24-70 f2.8 v1 lens? Did you have a filter on the lens? Was the footage slowed down and stabilized at all in post?
All of the B-roll was shot using a Sony 85mm f1.8 with a Polar Pro VND. No other filters (I forgot my black pro mist lol). The shots were a mix of 24p and 60p (slowed down). I did stabilize the first clip of the sea lions in post, only because I ruined the shot myself by being on uneven ground. It was such a cool moment that I didn't want to leave it out because of my own mistake...
The Cinepeer Weebill 3E will be on sale for $199 at launch! 🤯 Get it at that price while you can. At $199 this gimbal is hands down THE BEST ENTRY LEVEL GIMBAL! Thanks for watching
I was waiting for this!!
It's a great product. Highly recommended!
Thanks, did you forget a thumb grip?
Thanks, sold.
I’m glad I’m not crazy. I watched a ton of videos, took a course on udemy, and studied like crazy then took a practice test on King Schools website and hadn’t learned like 1/4 of the stuff it was asking about
Yeah, it's they're all over the place unfortunately. Good luck on your test!
@@MattYamamoto100 took it and got a 93%! I was genuinely shocked how many questions weren’t covered in the study material… but it helped being prepared for anything
Super helpful thanks!
Glad it helped!
Thank you. I’ve had this lens for awhile but wondering about this lens vs Sony’s FE 35mm f/1.8. Sure the f/1.8 is not as small but what do you think of the on the compact C bodies like the A7CII or A7CR that have the extra dial? Take care
The 35mm f1.8 is a fantastic lens as well, but I do prefer the compactness of this lens for EDC or street photography. If I didn't already own the 35mm GM lens, I would have no problem going with the 1.8
you mentioned apples with apples for teh a valid compare. q2 has a 28mm 1.7 that is not = 40mm 2.5. so someone get a 1.7 ( or 1.8) and 28mm?
Ive got almost the exact same loadout, so this review is super helpful, Thanks!
‘On a budget’ does not mean cheap.
Honestly I dont like sling bags that are $100+ all the ones I've seen don't look that impressive and just look more for fashion
You’re right…but your reply tells me that you know what I meant. 😊 thanks for watching!
