Sigma 16mm f1.4 + Sony a6500 - quick low light test

Testing the lens in low light conditions with the Sony a6500. Conditions were much darker than they appear in the footage. I kept the ISO as low as I could with the aperture wide open (f1.4).

South Mountain, I remember it well. :-) The lights of south Phoenix lend a truly surrealistic quality to your captures. Well done!

Simply beautiful. You have to change your name to GEN X ART GUY .... Lol.

Gen X, what about the focusing? Beside the sharpness, I do not see any focus hunting, which would quickly detract from the quality of the footage. Did you use auto or manual focus? Hand held low light capture is always a good litmus test for testing all aspects of a lens and body, and the way your clip holds the viewer's attention is proof that you are doing something right. As a beginner, I'm learning; thank you for the tips.

Thanks for the comments. It’s all autofocus. The autofocus on this works nearly as good as a native Sony lens. I have the Sigma 30mm and it tends to do a lot more focus hunting. Sigma figured out how to make it much better with the 16mm. The IBIS in the camera helps a little with stabilization (not stellar like a GH5).

Excellent, thank you for the info.
