The first composition with the model on his feet was an Apple and Oranges comparison. In the 135mm shot the model was farther away which heavily impacts the intensity of the bokeh. I wish I saw that first shot with the model’s body having the same size vs frame ratio.
Sorry, man. I found this interesting but not very useful. The trick effects were distracting and the actual comparison videos were too brief. From my point of view, you get an A for creativity but a D for usefulness for someone who is shopping to buy and looking at both lenses. You got style, man ! But I was looking for data.
Derrel I noticed your model was much further away with the 135/1.8 shots at the start, when he was standing, but noticeably smaller in the frame too, and this has given the shallower DOF advantage to the 105/1.4...Ideally you should try to frame your model identically with both lenses if you want to make a fair comparison of each lenses Bokeh quality. In the seconf series, where he was sitting, you made the same mistake with the framing again as there has clearly been framed smaller in the 135mm shot. (look at the extra space above his head).
I rented both of them and the 135 up close headshots just melts the background at f1.8. I love the compression of it. But the 105 just puts that magical touch to the background at F1.4 that it’s so hard to describe but when you see it you know your clients are gonna love the shot. So I bought The 105mm and use it on my Z6 almost religiously. I’ve barely use my 85 mm or my 70-200 anymore. In the 105 mm also is a lot easier to use and close quarters or spots with limited space. Great video missed seeing your videos
No doubt Sigma 105 1.4 is the King Portrait lens. The background and foreground compression is like a middle frame lens. The color also is amazing. The sharpness is incredible @1.4.
They both are my favorite focal length to shoot with. I prefer the 135 but the 105 at f/1.4 looks insane. I hope you are planning to post more videos using that lens.
@@donzokor5312 I'll probably get the Sony 135mm too. Three main reasons, first it's smaller and lighter than the sigma 105. Second the autofocus is better in low light and I'd probably be annoyed if a lens as costly as these had a weakness. Lastly the 135mm focuses closer which makes the Sony more versatile as it's so much more than just a portrait lens. I've seen some incredible flower images with the Sony 135
105-115mm is the killer lens in terms of maximum thin DOF possibilities and workability. Sigma really need to make new DG-DN Art lenses with this focal length.
Because of the entrance pupil of the 105, both of these lenses will render the exact same level of bokeh out of focus. Neither will render a more shallow depth of field than the other.
If you want to get a good 135mm the Minolta 135mm f2.8 will work but you need to get the adapter for it A-Mount to E-Mount. If you want a 135mm f2.8 very cheap there is the Minolta 135mm f2.8 manual focus lens. Also Vivitar has a good 135mm f2.8. Old school Vivitar has a lot of good lens. When the owner died the company went down hill and started making cheap stuff.
Nice job... you are pretty good ad it.... Both Sigma lenses are pretty great..... at one point it depend what someone like to use... for head shoot 135 is pretty hard to beat.... full length 135 or 105 does a great job, like I said it's a matter of opinion and what feel better in your hand and the way you see the shoot... The lenses comparaison are a bit off do and can mislead, 135mm should be closest to the subject not farther away compare to the 105 shoot..... It's the basic if you take a 70-200mm lenses and shoot at 105 and take the same shoot at 135mm you will be me more in, not out.... From what i saw, you have more an eye for the 105mm....i have more a eye for the 135mm but again to shoot closer to the subject.... and a really close head shoot with a 135mm , always have a impact..........As you know the focal of the lens either for portrait or fashion is also use to compress everything, subject to the background and every part of the face closer together(nose to the cheek bone, etc) so we work with 300mm and 600mm... of course outside shoot, but when the space permit it, indoor it's pretty great.... But again some always talk about being closer to the subject so they are more in communication with the model.. i'm not one of them... When you have a good relation, understanding with the model, doesn't matter the distance... also, some model don't like a photographer to be in their face.
First of all thanks for the video and I think you live in the greatest city in the world! I own the 50mm f/1.4 Art, the 85mm f/1.4 Art, and just bought a secondhand 135 f/1.8 Art (actually a brand new one, this guy switched systems, lucky me.) I think I'll be as glad about the 135 as I'm with the other two lenses.
@@darrenmaher6500 Hello, I can't really say which lens is better or gives better results but with the 135mm the distance from you to your subject is further but give really magnificent portraits (in my case). I just wanted some variation with different portrait lenses so that's why I own these 3 Sigma Art lenses. I know it doesn't answer your question but I'm really happy with all the results I get from the 3 Art lenses.
The 105 doesn't quite give you that compression like the 135. Either way, your friend got some clean shots. I have the canon 135mm f2l and that 105mm at f1.4 is still a couple steps below. The only thing is that pretty much only a photographer can tell.
How do you pronounce it? Most people say that it is pronounced “bow” (like a bow tie) and “keh” (like the “ke” in Kelvin) with equal emphasis on each syllable. Photo Technique added the “h” to the word “boke” to help readers pronounce it correctly as they understood it. However, are several articles on the Internet from Japanese speakers that say the last syllable should be pronounced like “kay.” 👍
Yo recién adquiri el 105 1.4 y realmente los expertos tienen razón en llamarlo el money maker , no me han dejado de caer trabajos con el....una inversión que vale la pena .
🐐ha yes. For portraits I liked the bokeh of the 105. But the compression and sharpness of the 135 is nuts. Because I shoot weddings, I’d choose the 135
Derrel Ho-Shing Photography very cool man! Thanks for the reply. I’m a ho for the aperture, I’m still sold on 1.4 now that I even hear you say the other one!
@@DerrelHoShingPhotography and still it's hard decission for me, because I love the best quality on outside photo sessions, but I must think practically. If the 105 is good also for events like weddings or dances?
I would choose the 105 for image, but it's 0,5kg more than 135 and the filter size is 105 (expensive), while the 135 is 82 mm, which I already have in my 24-70.
The sigma 105 1.4 is a beast; such an optical perfection. I pair it with the sony 135 GM and oh man you can take some incredible shots with them both. I couldn't decide what to keep so I kept both :) Also recently added the sigma 85 1.4 dg dn which has really surprised me just how good it is for it's smaller size. It's only downfall is the distortion but honestly I don't even like using the lightroom lens profile. I feel it does too much correction sometimes and that pincushion distortion can make someone look bit more flattering.
"but honestly I don't even like using the lightroom lens profile. I feel it does too much correction sometimes and that pincushion distortion can make someone look bit more flattering" I like your disposition here.
I'm glad you asked Derrel because "BOW-KAH" is indeed the correct pronunciation of Bokeh, as it comes from the Japanese word for blur, which is Bokashi, pronounced "BOW-CASH-EE", which has simply been shortened to Bokeh for non Japanese speaking people ("Bo" sounds like the bow in "long bow" and "keh" sounds like "Car" but with the R cut short). There are a lot of people on youtube who get it wrong and lets face it they sound kind of stupid when they do, so at least you know now and can sound like a pro who know's his stuff 👍 The worst pronunciation of Bokeh I have heard so far was "BOH-KEE"! 🙄
"Bow-kuh sounds more gutter!" (goat Emoji). I think it's technically "bow-keh," but people who trip about "what's correct???" are not my kind of people... Love the video and am looking forward to more.

Nice. The bokeh on the 105 at 1.4 is almost like the 200 f2
You need to use a 300mm f2.8 or 400mm f2.8 then👀 have one and it’s crazy af
I used both. Did a video with the 400
What would you prefer solely for headshots?
85 for headshots
No doubt Sigma 105 1.4 is the King Portrait lens. The background and foreground compression is like a middle frame lens. The color also is amazing. The sharpness is incredible @1.4.
You get the same bokeh but much more compression with the 70-200 f2.8 at 200mm and it is much more versatile.
They both are my favorite focal length to shoot with. I prefer the 135 but the 105 at f/1.4 looks insane. I hope you are planning to post more videos using that lens.
The 105 is just more practical. You gotta be so far away with the 135. Great video!

Thanks man man
I own both I'm in love with the 135
6:42 105 1.4
6:48 135 1.8
Due to my osteoarthritis and love of compression I lean towards the 135 1.8 (which I own)
Haha nice
IF I had to choose, I'd go for the 135mm....it's stealthier for street photography too
Hands down love the compression of the 105.... Nice production !! Liked and Subscribed...
Thank you sir. Yeah I love the 105
Not to be a newbie, what is the pouch he is wearing? Liking the look.
The Sigma 105 1.4 the best Portrait Lens eva made!
My takeaway is they're both beautiful lenses and it's just gonna come down to if you like to shoot a little closer or a little further away.
The 135 is great for social distancing but the 105 was supreme. #gloat 🤣
HAAAAAAAAAAA GLOAT
I prefer anytime 105 1.4. It is a little brighter and you can manage more easily in narrower spaces. Plus if you use it at 1.8 it is sharper.
I got the 135 sigma… mannnnnn…. I can’t explain how better my photography has become
which one is sharper?
Sorry i’m french, what is the best 105 or 135?

Hi, What software did you use for editing?
I like slightly better the 135 look, it has more artistic look and art potential on it
