Great vid Thanks ps the Canon glass seems to likes complexion and skin texture more than Sigma.

    @Hector_Malot Год назад +2

    The price of the Canon is not justified (Canon thinks it's Leica!), especially since it contain even more plastic than the first version. The Sigma has better micro-contrast and nicer black and white tones. The new Tamron 35mm 1.4 is also a serious competitor for the Sigma.

      @juliatrotti  4 года назад +5

      It's such a shame because it's a nice lens otherwise 😫if you've already tried calibrating it and it still didn't fix the issue, the only suggest I have is to take some extra photos during a shoot, which is what I did while I was using this lens just to make sure I had some sharp ones :)

    • @rushorahman
      @rushorahman 4 года назад +5

      It's very interesting how the same lens is super sharp and accurate in mirrorless A7iii but not in 6d mark ii. I also had the same issue with my sigma 35, even after using the dock to calibrate it properly. The dock didn't help much. Rather I Microadjusted my 6D mark ii for the lens and it's now good. No more soft focus and tact sharp on the spot. :)

  • @michaelbell75
    @michaelbell75 4 года назад +3

    Nice video but I this that Sigma might have been a dud or needed a micro adjustment on your camera. Its supposed to be super sharp from everything I have heard. You mention at the 6:05 mark that it wouldn't be an issue on the EOS R and you're right, so when are you switching to the R? :) Eye AF is sooooo much better than focus and recompose on a DSLR. Way more keepers too.

  • @macoto7976
    @macoto7976 4 года назад +5

    The Sigma is a solid lens and a whole lot cheaper. The canon is weather sealed and the 35 1.4 II is one of their best lenses. It really comes down to budget and set up honestly.

  • @fy7589
    @fy7589 4 месяца назад

    I think the canon's glass is a bit sharper overall in the center and the sharpness area in the center is wider than the sigma. This is why in F/4.5 the background on the canon lens is sharper. That means the sigma lens has a much shallower focus field than the canon which is more useful for professional work in daylight portraits etc. However for night time work, having both lenses wide open, I'd prefer the canon for that case.

    I traded it with the RF 35. The RF is noisy, slow, not as sharp, as bright, or as pop than the EF. But I hate adapting lens to the point it feels like a tele.
    Fortunately the size, the macro and the I.S is what makes it as worth as the EF 35 ii.

    Julia, i love your channel and style in photography, thank you for making photo related content in this high quality :)
    About the lens... i saw a few images with slightly missed focus, even with the really precise middle focus point. I'm using a 5d4 body myself, and i had all the issues you can possibly imagine with these lenses. Actually the 3rd copy of my 50mm Art worked properly. (the first copy was missing focus more what you can fix at home with the usb dock, the second one, even after calibration gave me shots with missed focus, sometimes it produced front focus, and then, in a really similar situation, i was backfocusing...) unfortunately, for both sigma and tamron lenses on DSLR-s, the usb dock is a must. on the positive side, if you spend that small amount of time to calibrate your lens to your camera body, it will gives you an amazingly reliable performance and the peace of mind! i had the 50mm ART, and i got the 35mm as well a few days ago, this weekend i'm gonna finetune that too, really worth a few hours just to make sure you have the AF right, and then, you don't have to worry about any focusing issues!

      Also, I updated the lens firmware with the Sigma dock and that makes the AF work faster, and allows for full compatibility with the EOS-R lens corrections. That's an important step.

If you hit the lotto you will have a great lens for a much more affordable price; if you don't, you will spend the rest of your days sending it back to Sigma. That has been my experience from since before you were born.- Service wise, I think that for off brand lenses, Tamron is a much better proposition and if you can afford it, don't even think about it, stick to your name brands.

    Great job, Julia! Loved Katya with that beautiful torso and great abs. For me, this comparison makes the choice in which lens to choose very difficult in that both had strengths and weaknesses, although the Canon seemed to be a bit better overall. I liked the Canon colors more, but when a lens is as sharp as the Canon, then sometimes for portraiture, its greatest asset could be its greatest flaw in that people don’t want every minute blemish to show up in their photo. I’ll wait for the RF 35L to arrive on the scene, but here, for the price, I’d go with the Sigma. I wonder, though, how the Canon RF 35 macro would fit in here, as well as the Canon EF 35 f2 IS?

      I have the EF35mm1.4 II and its a great lens to own. Tack sharp and nails focusing... No chromatic aberration. But the RF 35L should be amazing as well.

    • @juliatrotti
      @juliatrotti  4 года назад

      @@powderdescent Maybe because I shoot back lit a lot, but I do find that this lens has a fair amount of chromatic aberration - at least it's quite easy to fix in Lightroom! Would love to try the RF 35!

    • @juliatrotti
      @juliatrotti  4 года назад

      Thank you and yeah I find that it's always difficult to choose which lens is right for you, so hopefully my videos can help people in making that decision :) It's been a looong time since I've used the Canon 35mm f2, but from memory it was a great lens as well with good focus accuracy. There are so many 35mm lenses, I need to do some catching up 😂

  • @xandercloet7467
    @xandercloet7467 3 года назад

    the sigma looks really soft.
    I think that the sigma ART series lenses are not super good at very busy photo's.
    my 50mm f1.4 sigma has a lot more chromatic aberration compared to my 70-200 f 2.8.
    one thing I really want to mention is the the mount of my sigma lens keeps loosening.
    this looks to be a decently common problem for the ART series lenses.
    with a long, narrow screwdriver it's fixed in 5 minutes but it's still a dumb thing to happen to a €800 lens.
    but at the end of the day its bitterly half the price.

    Hey Julia, I can currently get a good deal on the Canon 35mm 1.4 L II for like 1100 bucks. I'm torn between that or the Tamron version. The Tamron version seems better than the sigma. But I can't compare it to the canon version properly. Personally I just think there's something about that Canon L look (Might be biased, lol). What would you do in my situation? Opt for the canon one?
    Also, comparing the Tamron to the Canon 35 II might be a great video idea for you. ;) Can't find any solid comparison video. I think you'd nail it!

  • @wilsoneusebio777

    I see when angles change sometimes pictures with Sigma have better ilumination and that's why looks sharper in some pictures, but Canon is by far better.

I have watched about 10 of your vides in the past 24 hours I love them. Thank you so much for the information. I am trying to figure out what would be the best for lens to start out with would be.

    What stands out to me more so than the sharpness, is the global rendering.....the Canon wins here - the sigma is more clinical. Btw I own both lenses...and my Sigma copy is sharper, almost too sharp....so I use it for product photography

    • @tonyfergusonphotography
      @tonyfergusonphotography 4 года назад +3

    • @denyxrunner
      @denyxrunner 4 года назад

      With dslr you have the best accuracy with the center point focus so you focus on the eyes with that point and then recompose quickly

    • @juliatrotti
      @juliatrotti  4 года назад +5

      On a DSLR you don't have focus points on the outer edges of the frame where I usually like to have my portrait composition, so I pick the focus point closest to the eye and then focus and recompose :) I've been doing this for 10+ years so it doesn't really cause oof photos depending how you do it. Also I was using the same technique for the Canon lens which didn't have back focused images!

    • @WuschelofDespair
      @WuschelofDespair 4 года назад

      Julia Trotti sigma seems to have good and bad lenses and they tend to have problems with back or front focusing on DSLRs and have to calibrated sometimes. There‘s also the sigma dock. There‘s a lot of bad things to say about the art series in terms of size and weight, but all I ever hear are, that the sigma art primes are among the sharpest lenses out there, at their maximum aperture.
      At the end of the day I‘m not a pixel peeper anyways and would probably be happy with either lens. But if you‘re in the market anyways might as well do the research and get the best value for your money.

    Does the 5d allow you to micro adjust lenses? If so you don't need the dock. Also if you go in live view you get the same mirrorless focusing features. I actually bought a screen viewfinder for my camera for when I want to do that.
