For an all-around lens yes, but for strict vlogging I wouldn't. The 16mm Viltrox is very underrated. Just a bit big and I find it's ugly but the performance is as good as any lens out there.

@@noisackda2564 I see, that makes sense. I just bought the Viltrox 16mm for fashion and street photography focused on architecture, should be fun :)

Probably the Sony 15mm F1.4

Hahahahaha!!! Appreciate you sir.

Thank you! Japan! I'm jealous. Good questions. I pretty much lock everything at 1/60 iso 2500 and only expose with an ND filter. All the best :) The FX30 is brilliant

@@noisackda2564 Thanks for the tip! Right ok I assume you shoot at 1/125 SS:) I know it's the videographer and not the camera that gets you great shots so in your hands the FX30 looks amazing👍🏻 Yeah I will definitely look into getting one. Got to find a good ND filter. Will look into a good Variable ND filter to.

@ I do actually shoot at 1/125. The reason I recommend shooting at 1/60 now for others is because some complain about flickering so I just suggest shooting at 1/60 now despite the fact I think 1/125 is smoother, but if you keep this in mind then I would recommend that you to shoot at 1/125 or even higher outdoors but 1/60 if you're indoors with fluorescent lights. Regarding the ND filter, you don't have to get an expensive one but I do recommend getting one that doesn't create an X pattern. K&F nano X are great. Neewer also makes a good variable ND filter that doesn't have the X pattern. If you like the softer look get a varable ND filter with a 1/4 mist filter on top. That's what i use.

@@noisackda2564 Thanks again, oh that's another great tip. that makes sense to shoot at 1/60 to avoid flickering I'll definitely keep that in mind. And thanks for ND filter recommendation. I was just looking at one fromK&F on amazon JP and I found one with the 1/4 mist!! It's not nano though. It's called concept series🧐 I guess there won't be that much of a difference. One last question if you don't , I should go for the ND2-ND400 right? not N2-N32. Thanks again in advance🙇

@@SuperCollectorClark Glad I can help :) The K&F concepts are good. Just make sure in the description that it doesn't have the X pattern. ND2-400 is good.

Glad I can help :)

I don't remember haha! Judging by the stability and wideness of the lens I would say the Sony 11mm

@ haha fair cal! Love the vids btw I fell into a rabbit hole watching

@@GoatsWildlife Haha! Appreciate you :)

Amazing! Glad I can help

Hey man, thanks for writing. For a first film, this is a great camera. Great stability. Nice 4K. Super easy to use. I think it's a good choice. Another alternate would be the Sony ZV-E10ii. Same thing. Great 4K but Sony has better lenses to choose from. If you wanted something higher end but won't kill your bank account I would go with the A6700, but it is significantly more expensive, but it share the same sensor as the FX-30 wich is a legit film camera. A lot of films and music videos use the FX-30 and the A6700 has that sensor in it.

Appreciate this :) Thank you

Thank you :)

Thank you! I'm glad I'm not the only one obsessed with anamorphic haha.

Hey man. I don't sell LUT's unfortunately. All of the luts I use are adapted from other luts so I feel bad adjusting them and selling them. I know others do this but I can't. I do recommend Phantom Luts though. Get those as a starting point and mess around with them until you arrive at your own look. That's what i do,

Thank you :) Glad I can help

Thank you so much :)

For handheld stationary footage you will be fine :) Very stable with Active and Steady Shot. Just as good as my OSS lenses actually.

@@noisackda2564 Yay, thank you for the quick response, I'm more than happy to hear that the IBIS is good enough, so I'm fully invested in getting the lens now. :)

@@IndieLumineer It's pretty great! I would advise you get a monopod as well.

Im goin for it I think... day time hikes I think would be chills old school vibes out in my country town.

You’re welcome! Very niche but very cool lens.

It will definitely make everything look like it was shot in the 80s for sure!

Yeah it's a bit hard to stabilize. For sure you would need some sort of assistance like a monopod. This lens is however great for photography. Weddings and events

@@noisackda2564 yes you are right sir. it also good for documentary style.

@@Mraz75 Yes it is :)

Brotha, visit and I'll take you there haha. 16-25 is very weird but I don't mind it actually. Sort of makes sense because I'm taking more photos. The 16mm focal distance is perfect for vlogging but it distorts the image a little too much in photos whereas at 25mm the image looks way more natural. In short, 16mm always for vlogging and 16-25 for photography.

@noisackda2564 good food and collectibles is all I need! That makes sense, I think as per usual, the hunt for the perfect lens (especially a zoom) continues but that's good for thought. I feel like Lumix makes some interesting ones that I wish Sony would put out, even if they are variable aperture kit lenses. They make a 20-60 and an 18-40. I'd love a range like that in e-mount

@@BrianCatalano What?! Those are some crazy lenses! Now I'm looking at Lumix :/ Thanks jerk!

@noisackda2564 ha ha!!

Goodness it was so busy this day. Sort of good to see it isn't dying though.

@@noisackda2564 I'm quite surprised! I thought it would be on its last legs. lol

@@AntzMr It normally is! I go to Aden camera there and every time I do, I feel depressed lol.

Thank you! No Cine-EI beause it isn't a paid gig so I perfer to keep it simple lol. I'm using Phantom Luts here with the FX30 and i'm actually using a FF lens with it. I'm using the Viltrox 16mm f1.4 lens.

Thanks so much! I'm using a mist filter. It's actually a VND plus 1/4 mist filter.

That's very interesting. Thanks for that.

Yeah I can't stand those micro vibrations :(

Absolutely! the 16mm focal range is perfect for vlogging and the 28mm zoom is perfect for street photography.

I stuggled with this as well. 24-70 would be the perfect do-it-all lens but I needed that extra zoom for my use case which was to shoot fight tournaments. I wish this was a 24-105 :( 28 is a bit too wide.

Thank you so much! This motivates me to create more content. It's honestly hard to review lenses this way because people want to hear every small detail and I get that, but I want to show the lens in a real world situation and to me, small details like sharpness and chromatic abberation isn't really that important. To me if the footage looks good then the lens is good enough for me. Either way, I don't want to get in to it because I also like those detailed reviews lol. Just want to say I appreciate you :)

Thank you! That's my goal is to not glamorize lenses but to show real-world use. Appreciate you :)

Thank you so much! Appreciate this and thanks for the feedback :)

I actually have the Sigma as well but I prefer the perfomance and render of the Sony lens. I recently gave the Sigma to my brother but it was a great lens and you are right. It was a great lens but the Sony is a bit better in every way.

Haha! You sound like me LOL!

Thank you so much! Appreciate you, and yes, the Sigma lens is amazing!

Thank you! Absolutely make more videos!

Happy New year :)

Haha! Thank you my friend :)

Thank you Antonio! Happy New Year! We must meet up in 2025 and vlog or shoot photos.

@@noisackda2564 hahaha that is the mission for 2025. lol

@@AntzMr Yes lol

Aw thank you. Appreciate you. I've owned two Tamrons and sold them both. I don't really like them. Perhaps I didn't give them a fair shot but I didn't like the way they handled stability. It wasn't stable lol. That focal range is great though and to be fair, I haven't tried that lens in particular. Remember I'm a video guy. Both of these lenses are going to be challenging when shooting video. If you're doing the same and the Tamron starts at 35mm that is going to be a tough lens to stabilize for sure. Also consider that Sony cameras unlike other brands have an internal zoom called Clear image zoom so your Sigma lens will be more like a 28- 170mm ( Just a guess ) so if the 150mm range is what you are after know that you are getting that with the Sigma. Of course the Tamron will benefit from this as well so you will be getting something like 35- 210mm ( Also a guess ) Honestly though. The biggest benefit is the wider angle of the Sigma. I feel a starting point of 35mm is very limiting and closes you off from a lot of shot you would otherwise get with the Sigma. Go Sigma.

@@noisackda2564 Thank you! I only shoot videos, so this is great information! definitely leaning toward Sigma. I use the Sony ZV-E1

@@Iamquiroga Happy to help :) Bug me if you need anything else.

LOL

Yes I agree LOL. I hate it because it's very boring to me. Perhaps that will be my YT goal for a New Years resolution. Learn basic lighting :P

@@noisackda2564 same here. I just wish I could figure out how to not get shadows behind the lighting. Thinking a honeycomb grid would help but I'm not sure.

@@TimBrownTown It's like you're speaking Greek to me my friend lol.

@@noisackda2564 LOL. Well you're doing something right!

@@TimBrownTown Haha

Hi Jake! Thank you so much! Yes the lens is awesome! Happy New year to you as well and I hope to see more work from you in the new year.

I shudder to think about all the gear you got this year 🤣 I wish we could meet IRL as well. Would be amazing to go out and shoot with you. Happy New Year to you and your family as well.

Thank you! I use adobe premiere to edit all my videos :)

@@noisackda2564 Oh... i thought you said you edit on the phone. Ty anyway :)

@@DiceDragondnd Oh!!! Haha! I use Premiere rush on iPhone, but I usually edit my youtube stuff on my computer. The quick social media stuff I use rush and instagram beleive it or not.

@@noisackda2564 can you apply luts on log footage in Rush?

@@DiceDragondnd I haven't been able to. That's why I love insta. I find those filters are quite good lol

Hello! Did you call me old? LOL! Joking! It's nice but when I compare it with some of the footage from my FF camera it's clear where it falls behind in video, but photos look amazing! 2025 is the year you become a Chad my friend. Do it!!!!

@@noisackda2564 haha that FF thing is also always a topic for me I notice specifically in low light. But for b/w photography sometimes high iso grain works 😀 And yeah I really have to hit the basics, probably can only do 1 pull up … that count has to go up in 2025 😄

@@IntrovertAmateur You know for photography I love grain. It masks a lot of what would normally be muddy IQ because grain is sharp it makes the edges of images look sharp lol. Also, work on trying to get at least ten pull-ups Haha. You go this!

Appreciate you sir. Yes, I got a new camera :) Crazy thing is I forgot to cancel my X100VI and it just arrived in the mail so now I have two Fuji cameras. I'm just going to return the X100VI I think. It's mighty expensive :( All the best to you as well in 2025.

@ Two new cameras lol😂 so cool!😎✌️

@@jdstrobist 😅

Thank you sir. Yes the stability is surprisingly awesome. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year :)

Thank you :) The Fuji is an amazing little camera.

😬💀 It is quite an amazing lens! Hard to stabilize though.

@noisackda2564 hmmm, good point. That compression though...

@@BrianCatalano Yeah I know! I love it!

I used to be the same way. I love primes because they are super fast. I love the quality they bring but I’ve recently began to hate changing lenses on the body so I’ve been investing only in zooms lately. Love your set up! Solid choices. All the best sir :)

Ok, I will have a closer look too the Sigma 10-18 2,8. It’s APS-c but also ok to use my fx30 more often. 😊😊😊

@ifollowyou4254 That looks like a heck of a lens.

@@noisackda2564 Yes, but I need to decide between the Sigma and the Sony 10-20, which ist 200 bugs cheaper in Germany and with internal focus and the power zoom but only 4.0 instead of 2.8.

@ifollowyou4254 I would go with the faster lens for APSC. You will need all the stops you can get. F4 vs F2.8 is a huge difference in crop sensors.

Nice! I like the weight of it as well. I just don’t like the plastic construction. I’ve held the x100vi and it’s so much more,” high end” feeling. An absolute work of art. I can’t wait for the grip since I always feel like the X-M5 is going to slip out of my hands. Thanks for the comment. Enjoy your camera!

Thank you! It’s an amazing little camera. I’m going to be taking it outside soon where it will get a proper test :)
