Sigma 18-50mm 2.8 vs The Sigma Primes (16, 30 & 56mm 1.4)

Facing this exact dilemma now and you helped me make up my mind. Good stuff. Great shots at the end too! Cheers.

Most helpful video on the lens by far. You just gained a subscriber. Keep it up 😊

I would any day sacrifice bokeh for the focal length versatility.

great video!

Just the video I needed. I got my 16mm and 56mm and really needed the opinion of a pro on the 18-50mm vs these primes.

Exactly what I'm looking for! Thanks!

Spot on review! Thanks!

Excellent comparison!

Dang. The difference in bokeh is very noticeable

Hey mate please help me which one will you suggest for photography and videography overall?? I can only buy one lens 😢

Ok but you have to do the equivalence. It's obvious that an F1.4 is better than an f2.8. In full frame is the equivalent of 2.1 and 4.2!

Love the primes but for the easy use I’ll go with 18-50 at a cost of those delicious bokeh

I am more interested of her Jacket than the lens itself haha

Thanks for the video, I've got 3 of the 4, only one I don't have is 56mm. Zoom is great for daily snaps. 16mm I use for my video work mainly and also good for out and about. 30mm I use for portrait more and it's a fun lens to have.
Nice to see the comparison on screen.

The model doesn't seem happy!
Was the allowance not enough for her?😂😂

Exactly the video I was looking for, thanks.

This is the exact comparison that I am looking for. It looks like not huge OOF difference at the wide end. It might be wise to spend money on getting the 90mm f/2 for more reach or 8mm f/3.5 for wider view. I wish Sigma come out with something for those ranges. Sigma 50-135mm f/2.8 and 8-16mm f/2.8 (I would be happy even at f/4 for a smaller zoom), where are they coming?

Great comparison thanks 👍

I've just found your channel, I love what you do! Keep it right on! I'm thinking of buying 6700 with Sigma duo 30 & 56 for my B-Roll trial-and-errors :)

I think you sold me on the 18-50mm as my starter kit lens for the Fujifilm X-S10, and then most likely a 56mm prime down the road.
