Great video man, you're an excellent presenter and your production values are very high. Would you consider publishing some handheld R7 b-roll with this lens? It would be nice to see how well the IBIS fares.
Thanks for the kind words, Will 👊 Oh that’s a good idea! Maybe I’ll do a handheld b-roll video in the next couple weeks! Most of the b-roll in my recent videos is handheld 😊 IBIS works great!
Thanks for the video....my Canon 80D shutter died and the cost to replace was too much to justify (as well as parts not available) so I was forced to upgrade. It was either 90D or R7....I have the Sigma 18-35 AND Sigma 70-200 2.8....I shoot a lot of sports and wildlife so the R7 was the choice....seeing this video makes me a little more comfortable with my Sigma lens on this camera.
Thanks for the kind words! Hmmm that’s tough to answer… it depends how you’re using it… do you shout hand-held a lot? Maybe this helps: I’ve had 2 lower back surgeries over the past 5 years 😬 and I had no problem taking this lens out with me on short walks in the forest etc. (1-2h). I would not treat this lens as my take out anywhere all-round lens though - it doesn’t even fit in my sling bag (peak design 3L)… I mainly use it at home to shoot A-roll for these RUclips videos. On the other hand… if you start looking at full frame RF zoom lenses… they’re also heavy. My favorite all-round lens is the RF 14-35 F4L at the moment. It’s only around 500g, nice and wide, full frame (so good once you upgrade) and the quality is excellent. It’s only F4 though, and it’s definitely more expensive… but I absolute love it! I’ll do a video on it in the next weeks 😊 Hope this helps! Maybe buy and try the Sigma? You can always return it!
@@coppensbram Thanks a lot for your answer! I think I will do that, buy it and give it a try. I think that I should try to find a comfy way to carry the camera for my walks on the forest, similar to yours in time. Regards!
@@soyXer a good camera strap does wonders 😊 Or… I often take a backpack too. So you don’t need to carry everything all the time. Should be much better for the back!
I have both R7 and This 18-35 1.8 SIgma lens. It's very good combination f1.8 in Zoom lens that's fantastic One Cons of this R7 + This Lens is .. it's very Long and Heavy really hard to balance on Gimball. But for handheld use it's still wonderfull but still heavy lol
Yes totally agree! Awesome lens but bulky and heavy. I actually use it at home for about 90% of the time. I prefer to take the RF14-35 out, even if it’s “only” f4 😊
Thanks 👊 Yes it’s 18-35mm… but remember the R7 has an aps-c sensor. And the lens is also in the same aps-c format. So it’s equivalent to ~ 29-56mm full frame
Hey Sir. Fantastic presentation and editing. I rock an 80D body and really consider the Sigma 18-35. I am very used to Canon, but the FX30 makes me want to switch, about which I am not sure, since I am a very small creator with a budget. I also doubt my audience would notice let alone appreciate the full frame of the Sony. So maybe getting something like the R7 in the future would be a better idea. Would love to hear your thoughts on that. Btw You are a top creator to me, and just gained a new sub!
Thanks for the kind words 👊 The FX30 is actually also an aps-c camera, not full frame. It is an excellent camera though… from what I’ve heard. Keep in mind though that it’s intended for video only. Sony has a way better lens selection, with cheaper alternatives from Sigma and Tamron. The R7 will be a better hybrid camera, excellent for both photography and video. The RF glass is expensive though (but very very good), especially if you want wide aperture L-glass. But the combo R7 + Sigma 18-35 is excellent for video, and doesn’t cost a kidney 😂 Personally, I prefer the ergonomics and interface of Canon… even at the premium. It all depends what you want to do with your camera! Hope this helps 😊
@@coppensbram Hey, thanks for the amazing insights and the correction. Actually, I am mainly concerned with video. Yet, currently, I don't think I'll be able to get my hands on an FX30 and a lens for it. With something like an R7 in the future, on the other hand, I could improve my videos now with the 18-35 and then get the body later. I'd be happy to know what you think of that. Also, whether you also mess with Sony. Your channel deserves to grow ASAP.
Honestly, I’ve used the R7 and Sigma combo for a ton of videos both on YT here, or even for client work. It handles everything just great! I’ve learned so much by using it on daily basis. Personally I think it’s an awesome stepping stone to get into videography (or photography… or both). I’d say just get started! It’s not about the gear but how you use it 😉 you can always upgrade the gear if you feel it starts to limit you! And yes… I’d love to try Sony gear too… but it’s tough to justify the cost of another ecosystem 😂 maybe if my channel gets a bit more traction haha!
@@coppensbram Hey, man! Thanks for this additional reply. I really appreciate it. I understand what you mean, but I kinda decided on the Fx30. That doesn't mean the Canon is less awesome, nor that I won't make up my mind. But based on my research it seems that the Sony is the best for what I do and want to do in the future. Although, it's also almost twice the price where I am based, which is a bummer. Regards!
You won’t regret it at all! Sony has a far better ecosystem for lenses. You can get high quality Sigma and Tamron lenses for only a fraction of the price of a Canon RF L lens!
I for sure thought I was watching a channel with like 50,000 subscribers. Damn you have some good quality. Anyways I used to have one of these lenses and by god it was incredible... I have a full frame now though so I will never get another one :(
Thanks 👊 I wish I had 50k 😂 I just started this summer for fun though… but who knows? And yes… the R7 is great, but as soon as the R6 mk2 drops, I’ll go full frame too!
Thanks 👊 I think it will work on a bigger gimbal like the DJI RS3. I only had a small gimbal (Zhiyun M2S) and that def. doesn’t work 😂 Maybe for balancing, I’d add a cage to the R7. I just got the Smallrig Black Mamba cage in, maybe I’ll do a video on it?
Hi there! It's normal to have a bit of resistance on the focus ring. I've just tested it on mine, there's a bit more resistance in Manual Focus versus Auto Focus. Nothing to worry about! 😀 Do you feel a lot more resistance when switching from AF to MF?
I'm really considering the R7 as an upgrade from my 80D, the main considerations are IBIS, clog3, slowmo, and 4k.... Im rocking my 80D with 18-35, however Do you have any problem with the IBIS for handheld shoot? I heard some people having jittery video comes out of it while using the ibis with the sigma 18-35..... and how about adapting other ef lenses that have IS? i also heard that the r7 ibis and IS of ef lenses will "fight" thus making the video unusable... do you have any experience with adapted EF lenses with IS?
That would be a good upgrade from the 80D! 😎 I haven't noticed any trouble with the R7's IBIS and this specific lens. I've used it for many videos and b-roll and haven't had any jitter. And I mostly shoot handheld too, works like a charm! I haven't tested many EF lenses since I try to only get the newest RF lenses. But I did try the EF 17-55 f2.8 though. Worked fine too, no jitter... however the focus motor was so loud that I returned it.
I have a Canon R7, Sigma 18-35 1.8, and a Sigma 30 1.4. For video, the IBIS works with my 30 but DOES NOT WORK for my 18-35! I see for you it works so maybe I have to update the firmware in my Sigma 18-35? Any help would be much appreciated!
@@coppensbram Yup I have the Canon adapter. I've been seeing to try and update the firmware on the lens so that's what I'm going to do and hope it works.
Hello Bram , i need your help if is it possible.. Recently i sold my Lumix S5 because i don't like so much the AF and also, is not-necessary ( to me ) have an a fullframe camera.. ( atleast, at the moment ) So, like i said, i sold it, and then , now i have money to get another camera.. I am looking for the best money/quality camera, as usual.. that's what all we want.. Then, watching YT vídeos i find this one and i have doubts about wich cameras i should buy, Canon Eos R7 and Sony Zve10.. I can buy the sony about 650€ plus 500 more or less about 11mm f1.8 lens.. 1150€ +/- Then the Canon is about 1550€ body+18-150mm+EF adaptor + 2battery extra. ( i want to sold the 18-150mm after then buy the 16mm f2.8 ) What do you think.. wich one do you recommend more.. The money is not the problem because i sold the S5 more than the price of the canon.. so i can buy one of this without problem.. thanks!
Hmm I haven't used the ZVE-10... but I'll try to give you my 2 cents 🙂 Actually... you didn't mention what your use case... I'm assuming it's video? The R7 is a fantastic camera for the money. The video quality you get out of it is fantastic, with IBIS, 7K oversampled video, 4K60 and CLOG3. It is also fr superior to the Sony in terms of photography. I would not purchase the kit lens though, just get the body. And instead of the 16mm f2.8, I'd buy the Sigma 18-35! This is the weak point of Canon's R cameras: no 3rd party lens support at the moment. So if you want awesome lenses, you'll need to use older EF lenses with an adapter, or shell out for the L-series RF lenses (cost a lot... but are really, really good). The ZVE-10 will be cheaper and lighter, and will have much more options for lenses (Sigma, Tamron, ...) that are both great and not too expensive. But... it's not great for photos. And... while the video out of it will be good enough for casual vlogs, and RUclips videos, you'll probably hit the boundaries of what it can do rather quickly. So it all depends what you're looking to do... Hope this helps! Just my quick thoughts 👊🙂
@@coppensbram thanks mate, finally i bought the R7 with the canon 16mm f2.8, amazing camera man.. really.. i came from lumix S5 but the AF was very bad.. this camera in awesome in quality , specs and AF.. really like it.. Now still thinking to buy the sigma 18-35mm what u mention or the tokina 11-16mm.. what do u think about this tokina ?
Good to hear! It’s an awesome camera 😃 I haven’t tried out the tokina lens yet… but I have no need for such a wide angle at the moment… does it have AF though?
@@coppensbram yes! have AF that tokina! but 1 youtuber do the review and says is a very nice lens but with the R7 have IBIS problems.. idk why and if can be solved, but thats what he says . i really like that lens haha
Hey! Yup this is all Canon R7. The autofocus is nuts! The A-roll is shot with 25fps 4K fine, and all the B-roll at 50fps 4K. You get a lot of the sharpness by using good lenses 😊 I mainly use RF 14-35 and 24-105 F4L for B-roll and Sigma 18-35 for A-roll. But… a lot is about lighting too… like a key and fill light. But that’s a whole other topic!
hi bram, i notice on canon r7, the sensor is a little bit wider than what canon apsc supposed to be, can you measure with the another apsc cameras from canon? i dont think so canon r7 has 1,6 times crop factor
Hi Leonard! It’s definitely aps-c 😃 I think it’s the IBIS that adds an extra “border” around the sensor so it can move in there. That’s why it looks a bit bigger than on the R10 for example.
Nice video. I just purchased the lense but am about to return. The autofocus motor noise is too loud and picked up by my shotgun mic just as you illustrated. The main purpose of the camera for me is my hobby of family videos and pictures so run and gun. I don't know what other quick mic solution I could implement that would give me as much freedom as the shotgun mic without having to pay an additional ton of money? Remove somehow in post?
I know what you mean… it’s such a shame there’s so much noise. There are a couple solutions but nothing ideal though. You could not use autofocus and go manual, maybe that will help. Also, you could use a lav mic that transmits to a wireless DJI or Rode wireless mic. But that only works if you have 1-2 subjects. Personally, I often shoot family b-roll and just don’t use the sound, and add music on it. Really great to add another layer of emotion to your videos! Removing in post will just be too much of a hassle… like additional work you won’t want to do. Honestly, I use the Sigma mainly for studio and b-roll, either where I can control the sound or without sound completely. For run and gun, I just got myself the RF 14-35mm F4L. I think that might be my new favorite for on the road! Wow what a lengthy reply 😂
@@coppensbram Thanks for the tips. One day, I'll graduate to making interesting family videos but right now I'm just recording memories as they occur (hit record and cut/transition, title). So I need the audio. On top of it all, I just got a Lense communication error (Using Viltrox adapter) so I think that's a wrap and it's going back. Thanks again for the insights.
@@gmoneygmoney1018 ah yeah there might be issues with speed boosters… I use the regular adapter that came with the R7. Try out the RF 14-35. It’s more expensive, but the quality is awesome, focal range is similar (but much wider), and future proofed for full frame too! Maybe I’ll do a video on it soon 😊
I haven’t noticed anything… I’ve recorded all of the A-roll in my recent videos with it at 18mm. I’ll take some photos to find out for sure! I think the vignetting only occurs when you use a speed booster.
your edits for this video are beautiful man!

Hello, I would like to know if this lens is multiplied by aps c and converted to 28-56?

I don't know what other quick mic solution I could implement that would give me as much freedom as the shotgun mic without having to pay an additional ton of money? Remove somehow in post?
I know what you mean… it’s such a shame there’s so much noise. There are a couple solutions but nothing ideal though.
You could not use autofocus and go manual, maybe that will help.
Also, you could use a lav mic that transmits to a wireless DJI or Rode wireless mic. But that only works if you have 1-2 subjects.
Personally, I often shoot family b-roll and just don’t use the sound, and add music on it. Really great to add another layer of emotion to your videos!
Removing in post will just be too much of a hassle… like additional work you won’t want to do.
Honestly, I use the Sigma mainly for studio and b-roll, either where I can control the sound or without sound completely.
For run and gun, I just got myself the RF 14-35mm F4L. I think that might be my new favorite for on the road!
Wow what a lengthy reply 😂
@@coppensbram Thanks for the tips. One day, I'll graduate to making interesting family videos but right now I'm just recording memories as they occur (hit record and cut/transition, title). So I need the audio. On top of it all, I just got a Lense communication error (Using Viltrox adapter) so I think that's a wrap and it's going back. Thanks again for the insights.
@@gmoneygmoney1018 ah yeah there might be issues with speed boosters… I use the regular adapter that came with the R7.
Try out the RF 14-35. It’s more expensive, but the quality is awesome, focal range is similar (but much wider), and future proofed for full frame too! Maybe I’ll do a video on it soon 😊
@@coppensbram Thanks!
At 18mm, does it have vignetting problem?
I haven’t noticed anything… I’ve recorded all of the A-roll in my recent videos with it at 18mm. I’ll take some photos to find out for sure! I think the vignetting only occurs when you use a speed booster.
