07:10 About the Sigma 35mm 1.4

  1. Great photos! I totally understand you. The camera industry should start focusing on a lighter, optically perfect, 1.7/1.8 setup. I envy this to Leica Q/Q2 users…Or try to switch to GM 1.4 ? I know it's only 100 grams lighter, but it still makes a difference. 🙂

  2. Hmm. I love my 35. I use it way more than my 50. I often reach for my 35 and 85.

  3. I agree. 35 always works but I'm never really inspired or amazed by it. I've taken some shots with 24mm that I really love, and also 40mm works better for me. 35 Is great for all kinds of purposes , I just don't get too excited about shooting it.

  4. The 35 mm says: "Adrian…are you here…?…no no…are You Here"…?!
    Since there are no trickery with this focal length, it relies on us, to seeing and getting a picture.
    Love your pov photowalks Adrian…!

  5. Maybe a really silly question but i am just wondering.. on 3:57 you focus on the person and take a picture. Right after you aim a bit at the sky before taking another photo. Does it have a certain reason to aim a bit more for the sky? To read another exposure or? You make great pictures and video's and i like your editing 🙂

  6. So true! The 35mm lens is a lens I own. Never want to use and when I do use it I love it. Its just so boring but at the same time so pleasent.

  7. Great vid. Agree with a lot of what you said. I find myself ignoring my 35mm 1.4 for photography, but I do enjoy it for video work. Would love to hear your thoughts on it for videography sometime. Thanks for the upload!

  8. I shot with this focal length for 12 years before switching to a 24-70. It will forever be my favourite focal length exactly for the reasons you mentioned. I'm starting to go back to it now because I sometimes feel the "laziness" when it comes to the 24-70 where I zoom in with the lens and not my feet. Btw, I use the 35gm and never had an issue with weight or size with that lens; pretty expensive completely worth it though in my opinion, hands down the best sony lens for me in terms of sharpness/size/weight/speed.

  9. I really like your images in this video. Even if you've captured more than you wanted to, I think it only has been to our benefit as the viewer. The lack of compression or distortion creates a feeling of authenticity and truth in my opinion.

    I hope you will struggle onward with it, because this is a great combo.
    ✌️

  10. I own a Sony R body and it’s given a new lease of life to my 35mm GM. It gives me a 50mm in crop mode at around f2 which is awesome. I noticed you use crop mode in the video.

    Traditionally I love 35mm but I’ve been drawn to 50mm a lot more in my latter years with photography. I suspect I like 50mm more right now but 35mm is also so versatile.
