Was looking for a wide lens with fast aperture but all i found were the above the 1k range or they had less Features like manual Focus. Now i found my next lens that i will buy. Love the look of the video it gives a pretty chill vibe.

Thanks for the review. The intro was cool. Feel convinced I should choose this lense as my second full frame lens. My first is Sony FE 35mm f1.8.

Thanks! Should be a great focal length to pair up with the 35mm. You should be set for most stuff until you need specific telephoto shots. Most FF wide angles this fast are pricy

I have the 16-35 GM I. but I might sell my G 20mm f1.8 for this lens... I shoot a lot of indoor stuff, DJs at night etc... and I usually use my G 20 1.8 and my GM 35 1.4 but this would be a better match for the 35 I believe.

Great video! High quality, informative and a nice chill vibe that made me stick around! note: the reason some 3rd party and even cheaper 1st party lenses doesn't have the rubber gasket is that it's not just the mount that needs to be sealed. Every opening of the lens, buttons, swithes, focus rings, zoom rings etc also needs to be sealed. Seing the gasket around the mount is a nice way to see that the whole lens is sealed :) Once again, great Video! Cheers!

Has anyone had any problems with autofocus? In my case, pretty bad. The lens has micro out-of-focus shifts every 2 seconds on the A7Siii even in really good lighting conditions and I've already tested it at all F-stop ranges! Also, Viltorx so far does not update this lens at all with firmware! I am very disappointed with this lens!

Email their support! Haven’t had issues with the a7iv fx3 A7Cii and the fx6 with it! Have you tried yours with a friend’s camera? See if it persists! If it does, it’s the lens problem. If not, it’s the firmware !

Now that you have used the a6700, which camera would you choose for pro hybrid work and content creation; a6700, A7IV, or A7CII ? I currently just own a Ricoh GRIIIx, a camera which sparked my creativity once again. But i now want to continue pursuing a career in photo/video/cinematography. I'm kinda leaning towards the A7CII but some things make me think the a6700 is actually better. Like even the image/video quality just seems better in some comparisions. I like traveling light and for that matter the a6700 would be a tool which could basically fill all my needs even in low light, but a part of me thinks that would it be better to invest a little bit more and get a full frame (thus kind of future proofing my work?) But then again, seen all the comparisions and the 'full frame capabilities' in the a7cii just don't really seem like a big difference, and sometimes i even think the a6700 takes better photos and videos. Idk, it's a tough call to make when i can't have them both to compare in my own hands with a buncha different lenses... So, as far as i know you probably havent got your hands on the a7cii yet but what is your opinion between a6700 / A7IV ? (because a7cii is supposedly the a7iv in a compact body) Sometimes in low light the a6700 seems noisier but sometimes not. I'm not sure why, maybe it's in the post processing noise reduction? TLDR; I'm feeling technically drawn to the A7Cii but my heart tells me that a6700 is somehow just better AND more value of a camera.
@VictorLaforteza

I'd choose the A7IV especially if you're doing pro work. While I only record in one SD card slot most of the time, having two card slots and simultaneous recording would be really helpful. Also full HDMI on the A7IV is great. Image quality wise, you're gonna get very similar results in these three cameras. a6700 being a bit harder to film on low light but it's easier than previous APSC. For pro work, always invest in the right tools. If you're just doing social media content, a6700 is the best value.
