Good video, but one funny thing about RUclips reviews is it seems like nobody understands what aperture blades are used for. It has nothing to do with the bokeh wide open. 100% of its function is reducing how octagon shaped the bokeh is on light orbs when stopped down. That's it. The blades are literally not visible in any form when wide open. 3 or 23 blades would have no difference at F2.8.
I literally can't wait for the delivery date of this lens, as soon as it comes I'm buying the canon R7, we will coooooook with this combination, thank you for this amazing video 🤙
@@VideoMakerTwist I really love the way you reviewed this lens, keep it up with the good work, no I live Lebanon but I ordered it from Ebay, set to be delivered next month 🙌
but isn't the sigma 18-50mm a crop lens made for crop sensor cameras..??? so the effective focal range should be still close to or exactly 18-50mm?? I'm confused now
or is it that the written focal length of even crop lenses still behave the same way with FF lenses on crop sensors? so it still needs to to be multiplied?
If you use this crop lens on a crop camera, the focal range is exactly 18-50mm in terms of how it behaves on that camera. However, compared to a full-frame camera, it will feel like a 28-80mm lens due to the crop factor. So, it's 18-50mm physically, but the field of view is narrower than on a full-frame camera.
The R7 has IBIS, so it doesn't matter if the lens doesn't have IS. I have the 50mm 1.4 Art, 35mm 1.4 Art, 70mm 2.8 macro Art, 14-24mm 2.8 Art, 18-35mm 1.8 Art and 50-100mm 1.8 Art lenses and the IBIS works perfectly with all of them.
Thinking of using this lense for some sports videography and some detail shots of the athletes before the matches. Currently using the R10 with the kit 24-105 f3.5 to f6.3 zoom lense. Do you think the Sigma will deliver ?
Bought this lens to try out on an R50 and returned it. Wasn’t a fan of how it rendered. I’ll continue to use my 17-55 when I need a zoom in this general range. Bring on the Sigma RF primes.
I found the lens at its widest focal length (18mm) to be sharp in the middle, but the corners were soft even stopped down. Longer focal lengths through 50mm were soft wide open.
@@keyonlewis7574The EF-S 17-55 is an APSC / crop sensor lens that you can adapt with the EF to RF adapter to your R50. The lens also has IS which is nice on the R50 which doesn’t have stabilization.
Super dissapointed that it didn't work on my Komodo. It didn't autofocus, and the Aputure Control in camera just didn't communicate well. Hopefully it fixed soon.
Alot of mileading intro. On the R7 it can resole the 32MP sensor with ease. I am sure it can use Ibis also. 20+ year crafting photos and needed a light lens and truly impressed with this lens. No its not a 24-70 F2. or even my RF 24-105 F4 It doesnt feel cheap a really nice lens for what its price at. I couries what it can do on my R5.
Yes, so the lack of lens stabilization is not totally a problem. And the R7 has a physical switch for manual/auto focus. So the 2nd problem you pointed at, is also not a problem anymore ;-D I've just bought this lens 😀
Here I compare the 24-70 f2.8 lenses from Canon (EF vs RF) ruclips.net/video/uOaRjn2PoWw/видео.html

just bought this for my R7 and I absolute love it , very sharp video and images. This lens IS a GAME CHANGER
It really is!

You're welcome! Did you check the link for the lens in my description? I thought it's available to ship. Are you from the US?
@@VideoMakerTwist I really love the way you reviewed this lens, keep it up with the good work, no I live Lebanon but I ordered it from Ebay, set to be delivered next month 🙌
can use on a full frame? R8 ?
Ohhh fiinally lenses for my almost 2 years old R7!!! And 10-18mm f2.8 and I'll be happy!
I got the 10 18 version and I absolutely love it. It's much sharper than the rf 16 2.8 prime or 10 18 canon version.
Is the focus ring decent quality on your 10-18?
Its a bit small and my hand goes to the zoom ring sometimes
but it turns smoothly and precisely
Without manual focus, can you shoot the stars or the Milky Way? thanks!

@@VideoMakerTwist yes, on full frame it behaves like 18mm but doesn't cover the FF circle
@@andrewandmartyYes, you still multiply the focal length.
I can't speak to this lens, but I really am enjoying the 10-18mm f2.8 Sigma for Canon RF APS-C bodies. What an improvement over the Canon offering!
now i am convinced to try this lens on my R7!
I have r50, and I think this thing with gimbal will do the work for videography. What is your opinion?
The R7 has IBIS, so it doesn't matter if the lens doesn't have IS. I have the 50mm 1.4 Art, 35mm 1.4 Art, 70mm 2.8 macro Art, 14-24mm 2.8 Art, 18-35mm 1.8 Art and 50-100mm 1.8 Art lenses and the IBIS works perfectly with all of them.
but for video? manual focus right?

Interesting to hear this. Can you elaborate a bit more about what you didn't like precisely? I think it could help others make their decision.
i have a R50 wtih the 50mm F1.8 was taking about geting a zoom lense. is the 17-55 a full frame or crop lense, RF or EF?
I found the lens at its widest focal length (18mm) to be sharp in the middle, but the corners were soft even stopped down. Longer focal lengths through 50mm were soft wide open.
I also didn’t like the way the bokeh looked. The stills I take with the 17-55 just look better to my eye. Just one guy’s opinion though.

how about r8 + rf2870f2.8
Having to turn off ibis on a tripod isn’t really a thing anymore on most camera systems
option lens ultimate for canon r50
I dont quite understand. So on my apsc camera is this a 18-50mm? Or will it be like zoomed in?
If you put this lens on a full-frame camera, it will be less zoomed in. For Full frame it would be 18-50mm and for APC-S x1.6 28,8-80mm lens.
@@dryaldibread2327its not cropped. Its 18-50 on my r7. I have a efs 60mm lens that’s definitely longer than my sigma at 50mm
Wait for Tamron 17-70...
But it's not even announced yet...
yup tamron will announce it eventually
Instead buy sigma 18-35 ef f1.8 lens and use it with ring mount
Yes, the 18-35mm 1.8 Art lets in 1 and a third stops more light and is noticeably sharper, especially at the edges.

The R7 has a mf/af switch on the body
Great vid :)

@@micter59 great! did you get a discounted price for Black Friday?
@@VideoMakerTwist No. It's even better than that. I bought it used on eBay, for 315€, which is nearly 330$. It's really as new.
WHEN THE HELL ARE THEY COMING?????.... Jesus, they said 4th quarter! It's December!
on the R7 it has RF/MF switch 😂
Dude just use a gimbal. Who uses image stabilization? Waste of a feature.
Everyone who does not want to carry awkward , big and heavy piece of metal around everywhere they go!
No reason to make this a 10 minute video lmfao
This is not TikTok dopamine.
why so? if you dont get any value from this why even bother watched pass 1 min lol?
