Sigma 105mm 1.4 hands on review| King of PORTRAIT LENSES?

Model name plz

4 years ago, no white hairs on you :)))

Thanks 👍✨🤸🏻‍♂️

Great video. Very informative. Thank you.

nice

The photos are amazing , the lens is really good ]

💯 percent better than the nikon 105 1.4 at cheaper price

Sigma 105mm 1.4f vs Sony 135mm 1.8f, which one is better for portraits/bokeh?

The fact that this is a 4yr old video and I'm coming here to figure out what to do today is telling. Been a huge fan since the beginning. Question, if anyone can answer...I'm between the 135 GM, and the 105 Sigma. I had them both in my hands yesterday, was playing around with them. Def noticed the difference in autofocus, bokeh being more circular with the 135, and the extra compression makes it a match for the 105 in my book, but, and here is where I get in trouble, is the 105 better than 135 focal range? Going to mess around with the lens as much as possible. This is replacing my 85 1.8 as I'm trading it in. I have a 200-600 for sports, and an anamorphic for more artsy shoots. Suggestions? Sharpness, quality, longevity, and artsyness (if that's even a word) matter, weight not so much. Kinda love how comically large the front element is too lol!

Wow she looks so cool with the leather. Amazing body ..

I personally like the cateye bokeh. It reminds me of anamorphic cinema lenses

Great review.,amazing photos. Many thanks 🙏🙏😊

This lens makes every camera look tiny...

I own the Sigma 85 DG DN and I'm looking for an excuse to buy the 105. As you mentioned, it's such a small mm jump to justify this purchase. I also do not like the bokeh look seen in the image you posted. Love watching you shoot man! Peace for Atl!

I'd take my chances with my Canon 1Ds Mark III, 85mm 1.2LII and Elizabeth!

I wish I could own a 200mm f/2 for those unique shots (showboat purposes). This sigma 105mm though., it's going in the bag tonight I got a good feeling about this on the R5!

Yes Manny I DO have a question: would you get the Sigma 135mm f1.8 over the 85mm and the 105mm?

This model in the shoot was hotter than the lens! But I do think that the Sigma 135 f1.8 blows the 105mm out of the water. I used to own the Canon 200mm f2.0 and still feel that the Sigma 135 f1.8 beats the Canon 200 f2.0

oh, that should be compared to the 135 gm

Currently own an A7III and a Sigma 24-70 f/2.8. Not sure what lens I should buy next.

The Sony 70-200 GMII is a beast… but it’s also $2,700… I just don’t have nearly enough clients to justify that. But in the other hand: the Tamron 70-180 is only $1,100 but just okay. I don’t wanna spend $1,100 on a “just okay” lens, ya know?

So do I spring for an $1,800 135mm, a $1,500 105mm, or do a drop $1,200 on Sony’s 85mm?

Now could the 85mm be more useful in tighter spaces? I mean there's 20mm between the 85mm and the 105mm, that's not insignificant.

what u think i should buy ? Sigma 105 f1.4 or 85mm f1.4 Sigma for fashion+portrait, or should i just buy tamron 70-180 f2.8 ?
I have 24-70 f2.8.

Muito linda, é de se apaixonar por ela...

Always great videos filled with straight forward information!! You also have great vision and skill shooting and editing your images!

okay! so, Manny used to make 60fps videos in 2018!

Update of my comment from 3 years ago ! LOL

Today (3 years later), Sigma Art lenses made me stay in the Sony alpha system !
My most used and beloved lenses are all Sigma Art... This 105mm f/1.4, the amazing 35mm f/1.2 DG DN and the 24-70 f/2.8 DG DN which is at least as good as the Sony GM, if not better !

I bought the 105mm after having seen your test 3 years ago and I'll never regret my decision !

So nowadays there's no pathfinder action? Screens forever?

you're the best to do it . much love brother

I have an a7iii and my eye af dot doesn’t always work? Can you or someone please tell me why ??

I have both and prefer the 105 other than the damn weight. My client brags about the best pic we’ve ever taken. With the 105

Fantastic model

I’ve found it to be extremely reliable on Nikon. It’s the Sony autofocus system that’s having an issue. I can shoot it in the dark.

Rf15-35 2.8 and the adapted sigma 105 1.4 is my go to for my canon r5

I will test on Nikon D5. Thanks!!!

what program do you use to edit?

I have been confused about what to buy whether it should be 85mm 105mm! but I think i am going to go for 105mm.. I know it would work beautifully for portraits in wedding with Godox Ad600bm. Thanks for the awesome review

Top man. Great reviews. 👍

I like character of the different lenses. People put too much value into the shape of the bokeh IMO

Im confused between 105mm and 135mm please tell me which should i buy ??

I wish it had optical stabilization.... but can't image weighing even more than it does.

I very much agree with the lens glare in the backlit situations. The solution I came up with was to put a sunscreen diffuser around the camera front area to put the lens under the shade. It's extra equipment and extra effort but it seems to be working for me.

wow and wow

Great shots! She’s amazing, that hair wow! And just imagine she’s walking around in her natural habitat looking that good all the time

Someone said this is the Queen of Bokeh. Now I’m not sure of the gender of this lens. I hope ‘they’ are not offended.

Beautiful :) QUESTION : I see you are shooting outside.. do u have a ND Filter to allow it to go down to 1.4? struggling with this outside thanks :)

Sony a7c?

Yo.. thanks for that comparison about not buying it if you have an 85. I have an 85, was going to buy the 105, but now I’ll get the 135.

Can you mount this lens on an APS-C Sized Sensor Camera, like the Canon EOS 90D?
