There aren't many wide angle options for Sony full frame mirrorless cameras. I had a tough time deciding between the new Tamron 17-28 2.8 or the Sigma 14-24 2.8. I went with the Sigma and I'm VERY glad I did. This lens has been redesigned for mirrorless cameras and I believe is the first zoom lens from Sigma for Sony e mount.
In this video I go over my initial impressions of the lens as well as auto-focus and barrel distortion testing. I hear ZERO focus motor movement as well.

You’ve got the most optimum glass collection..Awesome video brother.. it really helped
I recently got the tamron 17-28 and absolutely love it - having had the tamron 28-75 since it’s release I was so impressed I instantly pre ordered the tamron when it was available. Had that not been the case I would have been very interested in this lens - it’s great to see companies offering more affordable f2.8 glass for Sony that works so well with the autofocus! Sony’s G-master range is just far too expensive for me to justify!
I send back Tamron 17-28mm as soon as I got the sigma 14-24mm, way sharper and better color and contrast. Love the lens, I even sold my Sony 12-24mm f4 haha. Nice video, you won't be disappointed, I use it for real estate, weddings photo video and even on a gimbal.
How does the sharpness compare to the 12-24? I plan on using one of these for real estate photography as well.
Also interested in your opinion of Sigma 14-24 f 2.8 vs Sony 12-24 f 4
Like my 12-24 Sony even if f4. Has focus breathing compensation
Dang, I have the exactly gear lineup with you. In the market for wide-angle lens now. Will definitely consider it.
Definitely the next lens on my list. Currently using 24-70gm, 70-200gm.
Emjay Adams Then this should DEFINITELY be your next!
yes it is available for the l-mount, which spans Leica, sigma, and Panasonic, the feedback is extremely useful for someone looking at switching from A Nikon DSLR to mirrorless. Though I am still considering my options (Nikon, Sony or Panasonic) the value proposition Sigma presents has me leaving Nikon for either Sony or Panasonic because Sigma has told me that both of the lenses I already own (85mm, 135mm both ART series) can be converted from f mount to either of the L or E mounts. I know there will be some small amount of loss in af speed, but being that neither of these focal lengths is really meant for sports that will be fine. This lens will be to the L-mount what the Tamron is to the sony. As to which is better Tracy is %100 correct it is all in what you use it for and who your equipment manufacturer is.
After watching this I'll stick with the Tamron 17-28. Thanks for your review though
Same, mostly for weight and size and I can use filters. I already have a Samyang 14mm so if I need to go super wide I have that option
I ordered this lense. Now waiting for it. I think it is coming today 😁 only wanted to use it for photography (landscape milky-way and architecture) but now I think I have to make more videos. Very good video searched for a video maker in German... Nothing good. So best test. Kept it simple.
nice review.. i just order the 14-24 because of your review.. thanks
Relatable review. 10/10
Since I'm low on budget I use the 10-18 f/4 on A6400 and A7iii.
Enjoyed your review of the Sigma 14-24mm. I definitely will purchase this lens. I see opportunity in focal length that I did not think about before. Keep doing what you do!
Hey, @TracyDanielDavis I think this lens had the function to utilize lens correction if I'm not mistaken. Inside the camera, menus should be an option to correct for things like the "bowing" or aberration among other things. Let me know if you found your way to that and if it fixes that for you. If so I think this would be a great lens addition for those who need the wide aspect it offers. Thanks! and keep up the great videos because you have a great flow and personality along with very good video production.
jonathan jenkins Wow! Hey man thank you for the kind words! I want to make more for sure, it’s finding the time that’s tough!
Already have the 16-35GM and it's my main workhorse for real estate. Really interested in the tamron but it's not wide enough. This lens is super tempting but hard to justify going from the beastGM to the sigma. If I didnt already have the GM I would buy this no question
HD EDITS Yea I think you’re good if you have the 16-35. Solid lens!
HD EDITS why not the 12-24 from Sony ?
@@TarkinxTarkinx because it's f4 and it's not good enough for indoors.
Hi Tracy, thanks so much for your good work on this video. I'm thinking of adding real estate to my photography work, and I've been looking at this lens and the Tamron, and your review here is leading me to go with this lens. Thanks so much!
This was an amazing in depth testing of this lens. You def gained a sub. I am looking to purchase this lens and this video just really helped me feeling confident in getting it.
UneekFoto Wow thank you!
@@TracyDavis904 I am getting my Sony for Christmas and this is the lens line up. Sigma 14-24 the new Sigma 24-70 and the Sigma 85mm all made for mirrorles. I was debating between the Smyang or Batis 85mm but I rather just keep it all sigma glass since I am coming from Nikon and the 18-35 Sigma art lens is just so amazing and sharp. I love that you did a video test with the 14-24 which helps a lot and also I will be doing real estate work so you also said it was great for that. Again your video was gold for me. Thanks again.
UneekFoto Awesome! You won’t go wrong with Sigma glass!
Thank you for the video Tracy! If you happen to figure out how to use the rear back filter, let us know!
Thibault Klein Will do!
@@TracyDavis904 I bought some gelatin filters - ask any lighting store that sells gelatin sheets (Lee are typically what filmmakers use. they range from 0.3 to 0.9 and even more!) the black cutout is provided and I use a scalpel or scissors to use it. gelatin scratches easy and retains fingerprints too so handle the tabs at the end!.
jessetides I thought of that too, I’m just curious what Sigma will offer.
Thank you for your review. Please show us how you use this lens in wedding situations. Thx again!
Hey Dan, thanks for this great video. Until you mentioned that the weight of the Canon version is different than the Sony version I didn't notice that they are using a different optical formula than each other and what I see from the MTF charts it seems that the Sony version is better than Sony 16-35 f/2.8 GM at the wide end where the Canon version was noticeably less sharp. That's great! Thank you for bringing this lens back in to my attention 😊👍
Erkan Özgür Yılmaz You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
Great review, I will be picking this lens up at some point!
This lens is incredible for the money. It is amazing for landscape/astro photography
Thank you for making this video. I think I am going to go with this over the Tamron for the same reasons as well.
Love your style 👍🏻😁
& this is a proper lens review! Really digging that lens!
Only thing optically I didn't care for is all the purple fringing in the trees. Overall seems like a nice lens. I already own the Tamron 17-28mm and 28-75mm though
Thanks for your review, looks like a winner to me! I have the 16-35 GM but I probably would have bought this if it was out a couple years ago instead. I would have loved the 14mm over the 16mm. Doesn't seem like much but it is for those moments you just don't have anymore room to back up, especially realestate.
smart choice, Sigma Art glass is fantastic
Great review....I really appreciate the time and effort it must take while doing your regular pro photography work to put together a video like this. The 14mm to 16mm switch views were helpful. My current situation is this: 11-year Nikon pro photographer, can't stand the constant oil spots on my Nikon D750 anymore, no point in going with another DSLR, Sony is way ahead of Nikon in mirrorless camera bodies and light years ahead in mirrorless specific lenses, so I pre-ordered the a7r iv. I do a lot of rural land real estate work and have been using the Tamron 15-30mm f/2.8 SP (original) lens on the D750. In my research I was afraid of paying so much for the Sony 16-35mm and not even getting the same width as before, and the Tamron for Sony at 17mm not nearly wide enough. So I eventually found the Sigma, and pre-ordered it before watching your video. Your video though has cemented in my mind it was the right choice. You must have been lucky to get your lens as B&H, Adorama, Amazon, no one has it on September 3, 2019! Can't wait to get this lens out in the desert here in New Mexico and in the city too for interiors. The distortion seems very minimal to start with even at 14mm. Thanks again!
Jason Collin Hey Jason! You won’t regret going to the A7R IV! I was tempted to get it myself but since I’m predominantly a videographer I’m holding out for the A7S III and will use the A7 III for photos.
Yes, it seems like the supply for this lens is limited right now. I must have been in the first shipment phase! It’ll be worth the wait!
@@TracyDavis904 Thanks Tracy . . . I actually canceled my backordered order from Adorama and today got the lens from Bedford Camera and Video with it already shipping out for Friday (two days from now) delivery. I could have already had it sitting on my desk if I didn't hold out waiting for Adorama so long. I have another question for you if you don't mind, I will need a second Sony camera as a backup to the a7R IV and for mounting a 70-200mm lens on when shooting events. I am considering the a6300 (as the newer models still use the same sensor!) or an a7 III. For the past 3 years I have had a Nikon full frame and crop sensor pair. I like that because then the 70-200mm becomes 300mm. However, maybe I can live without that and I should just have the benefit of having two full frame cameras? Likewise, having already spent a small fortune on the a7R IV and four Sony/Sigma lenses, I am thinking the Sony 70-200mm f/4 might be good enough if it is usable at ISO 6400 and up on either of the two Sony bodies I mentioned above and save a ton as Adorama has excellent rated used f/4 for only $999. Thanks for any thoughts you may have!
Jason Collin I would stick with full frame even for a back up! And the 70-200 f/4 is a fantastic lens, you won’t go wrong with it!
@@TracyDavis904 Thank you! I appreciate the advice! I'm a subscriber now too!
hey respect for making the video dude
You need to buy ND gels and use the included template to cut them out.
Sigma art lenses are made by hand in Japan. Images are very sharp. 👍
Great review, thanks for sharing the video.
Great video!! Thank you, I think your fan overhead is grabbing the focus of your camera sometime..
Albert Milton Thanks! No I had my focus point set too small, should’ve used wide.
Tracy Daniel Davis makes sense! Glad I found your channel, subscribed, great 👍 channel with details! I’m having 24 mm 1.4 gm, 55 mm 1.8 and 85 mm 1.4 and primarily I do Christian videos and I also miss the range below 24 mm but this sigma looks promising! Hope soon we will get 14 or 16 mm prime 1.4
Hello from switzerland thx for the video help me a lot!!
I got this lens last week it's fantastic.
Thank you for the in-depth video :)
Why did you pick this one over the Sony 12-24mm f/4? Because the price or the f/2.8 or both? I rented the Sony one for interior photography and it's really, really sharp. Don't know the video AF performance, but I'm guessing it's really good too, almost all native Sony lenses have fast AF.
While 12mm vs 14mm might not sound like much, it's still about 17%, which means you'll capture a lot more of the scene.
Ervin The 12-24 is an APS-C lens, so you’ll lose about 50% of quality by putting it on a full frame camera.
@@TracyDavis904 It's not mate, it's full frame. Check it out: kenrockwell.com/sony/lenses/12-24mm.htm
When you showed the difference between 14 and 16 I got shure that Tamron 17-28 is wide enough for me.
Sure*
@@oxymoran1931 Thank you, english is not my native laguage.
Hi Daniel, can you compare this to the Sigma 14mm F1.8 Prime lens for Sony
Thank you for making this video.
Watching from Kenya.
Tamron has a closer focusing distance. Which is great for semi macro wide angle shots
Nicely done. PS Florida heat sucks all year round...I’m based in Tampa 😎
It is available in Sigma's own SA mount for their own mirrorless cameras such as the SD Quattro H.
Awesome video! It was very helpful. I already own the 12-24 G and just put out a review on the Tamron 17-28 (which I love). So it is hard to justify adding this Sigma 14-24 but it is very tempting. I got to test one out in my local camera store and it is a tank of a lens! So heavy but i'm sure the image quality is superb. Have to give it some more thought ;)
You must have tested the Canon/Nikon version which is much heavier. This one is really a good weight!
You don't like your 12-24 G ?
Tarkinx I believe that’s an APS-C lens so it will be cropped.
@@Tarkinx No, I love my 12-24! It is full frame and I mostly use it around 12-18mm. I much prefer the 2.8 at 24mm. So I am keeping both the 12-24 G and Tamron 17-28 for now.
This sigma might change that though, but I will need to wait for more reviews.
Alex Zhang ok thank you for your answer
Dude, thanks very much!
I've been trying to decide between this or the Tamron 17-28mm 2.8 or 16-35mm f4
Tamron is the best bang for the buck, unless you need those extra 3mm. Also, Tamron is much lighter so it will always find it's way into my bag!
AF seems so soo much better on this than the first sigma Sony lenses.. I mean, its not fast! But its smooth
twinkmaster2 I had my settings to be pretty smooth.
Great real life review. It's terrible how hot it is here in Florida lol 😂
Randy Reed Over it! Ha
Really well done review thank you! I currently have the Laowa15mm, no auto focus thinking about switching to this lens.
Lincoln Meikle I heard the laowa is a great lens, I just like having AF when I need it.
Nice lens
8.30.2019: Truly appreciate all of the likes and comments. I'm glad there's a lot of curiosity out there for this lens! Appreciate all of you.
I hope this helped you! What wide angle lens are you using for your Sony cameras? Also, I did add some photos at the end. Although not great I think they show the lens is a solid choice but I will shoot some more dynamic images soon.
Tracy Daniel Davis yes, you’re correct, first sigma zoom. Helpful video!
Great review! Thank you for this!
👍🏼🙏🏼
This video is really helpful, thank you very much!!!
i was considering this lens a few weeks back before my tamron arrived.
every review i see...
just makes me want to buy the GM :(
unless you put lenses side by side, all of them feels good in auto focus. however when you do comparison side by side, you immediately understand where each lens has a short fall
Would like to see actual landscape shots with this instead of a back yard and vlog footage but thanks for the review
Too bad I'm not a full time CZcamsr that can fly out to landscapes. Maybe you can buy it and do that?
Solid video! Looking forward to getting this lens.
Thanks! New one on this lens coming today regarding using it on a gimbal!
Thank you for the review. This is only the 2nd video I've seen of this lens (the other one was from a camera store that was also in Florida) I've ruled out the Tamron 17-28 as the images don't look as crispy as this lens. Now to determine if I want to drop the extra 700 bucks on the 16-35 Gmaster for that extra reach or get this lens and have that 2mm difference on the opposite end and save some money. I currently have the Tamron 28 - 75 and the Sony 85mm 1.8. I think I'd be happier with the 16-35 because of the extra reach and that 2mm doesn't seem like THAT big of a difference, but my wallet certainly says ouch to that choice! Decisions decisions.... Either way, thanks again for the video! Subed. =)
Nathaniel Martin hey thanks! If you can swing the 16-35 do it!
Soooooooooooo helpful!!!!!!!!! Thank you!
Good video man, appreciate it. I may go with this lens instead
Awesome! Let me know if you do! It's such a great lens.
Great review. That background music sounds great. World work amazing for focussing at work. Mind sharing the title?
Hassan Syed it’s a licensed song from soundstripe, sorry.
14mm full frame and in apsc mode 21mm
Im not getting the 14-24mm sigma... Instead im getting the samyang/rokinon 18mmf2.8. And the sony 24-105mmf4. Then as a last lens the sony 100-400mm telezoom. Why? The sigma cost about the same as the sony 24-105. The 18mm samyang/rokinon is a wide angle that does not cost a lot at all.
Dudeius Mannigast You have to find the right gear that works for you! If you’re good with f/4 glass, that’s great!
great video. any update for the new sigma 24-70 for sony mount?
Great review! Thanks!
Nice quick review!. It is now October, how has the lens performed for you? Still happy with it? Did you figure out the filter package?
Thanks, Bob
Hey Bob. Sorry for the super late response, see my newer videos for the ND filters! I still love this lens.
Thanks for checking it out. So what about ND filters?
Like I showed in the video, I’m not sure yet on where they go within the mount area.
@@TracyDavis904 sorry man, must have missed that part. Have fun using this beast!
Thank you for this review. I have been waiting for it.
Luv the lens. Now, which music is it in the background...
The fact that you can't screw a Variable ND on it is a total dealbreaker. Just bought the 16-35 GM and I don't regret it for a second.
Max Meunier gotta find the gear that works for you. I’m hoping Sigma’s Mount-side ND feature will work.
@@TracyDavis904 Did you have an updated on the Mount-side ND filer for this lens? Really interested to see how useable it is. THanks!

This is a great review!
Kelly Lopez Thank you Kelly! Appreciate the comment.
these new technology of lenses are great im still stuck with my 14-24 f2.8 nikkor lens
Are you comfortable using it for video without a filter? Is it usable in bright daylight stopped down? The specs say it takes a rear gel filter. Would love to hear how well that works. Thanks for the video.
Ibsly Iknowuknow New video coming out tomorrow where I talk about that! Stay tuned!
Nice review. I take it the focus does not have hard stops? I'm looking for a Wide Angle lens with hard stops to use with our wireless follow-focus. I'd love to have it geared already but I can get that added later if necessary and, of course, we don't want to spend $5,000+ on cinema lens.
David Stanton Nope! If you don’t mind a manual focus lens look at the Rokinon cine lenses, pretty affordable but you might need to adapt them to Sony using the Sigma MC-11.
very good video
GGs Japan Thank you!
Thanks buddy 👍🏻🤗
Thanks for this and good job.
HoopDogg80 Thank you man!
Haida makes a set of NDs @ B&H
Ps Hows the lens been? I ordered one today!
Hey nice review. I realize this was posted a while ago but any second thoughts after living with this lens? Have you checked out the Sigma 16 to 28 2.8 Contemporary for comparison?
I still love it!
Will mark 2 of Sony 12-24mm F4 release soon? If I want to pair an ultrawide lens with expectation of a bit of crop to use as everyday lens to the A7RV 723g with Tamron 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 1155g, should I get Loawa 10-18mm F4.5-5.6 manual lens 496g, Sony 12-24mm F4 565g or Sigma 14-24mm F2.8 795g?
This lens or the 17 28 tamron 2.8 ?
I haven't held the Tamron, but it does look more on the cheap/kit lens side to me. Meaning the lens itself not its visual quality. If 17-28 is a good range for you, I'm sure it's solid. But seeing how well this Sigma handles barrel distortion at 14mm I'm very happy with my purchase.
Such a great lens, but i dont know if i should buy this sigma or the sigma 14mm 1.8... i jsut want to do astro photography with it, i got a canon 17-40mm at home and the sony 24-105 ..
Machmut Doener if you just need it for Astro photos the 14mm will serve you well. If you need to zoom for varying situations this lens is the way to go.
@@TracyDavis904 Yeah, i was wondering if the 14mm 1.8 with ef mount, has the same problems as the sigma 14-24 2.8 with ef mount, because i am considering getting the ef mount version
@@machmutdoener Not sure! Try renting it first.
@@machmutdoener I am also wondering for astrophot ... I only have the zeiss f4 and the samyang rubbish 14mm. I am looking for somethign much better, I have been thinking of 24mm GM but not sure if I can justify the price to my wife ;p I do mainly aurora and astrophoto
@@lordofming I guess 24 is not wide enough for aurora
Hey great video. Before I make a super big purchase I'm a photographer/videographer as well for weddings. Now u say this would be great for wedding videos? If not I was thinking the 24 GM instead.
Melda Jean Photography No, I would never use this for a wedding. Wide angle lenses are not flattering to the human body at closer distances, i use the 24 to 70 or 50 mm on wedding days.
@@TracyDavis904 U mean for video? I'm needing one for video right now.
Loved this! Subbed
Yay! Thank you!
Yo! Been waiting for someone to review this thing! Thinking of doing one myself. For some reason your video doesn’t pop up when I search “sigma 14-24” and search by upload date though! Just a heads up if you maybe want to change your tags or something!
Justin J Morris Thanks and I know! I do have that tagged! So weird.
how is the distortion at 14mm? is it obvious? I got tamron hands on but is fairly obvious distorted at 17mm..
KH CHOI You can tell it’s somewhat distorted, but not too bad. If you are shooting too high or too low the distortion is more noticeable so shooting level-on will be the best.
Excellent review my friend - this is definitely my next lens.
I have tamron len sold 28-75 f2.8
There's a lot of vignetting. Do you know if that can be corrected with a profile in-camera? Thanks for the review!
Greg Makami Hi Greg, I’m not seeing the vignetting. What time code do you notice it?
Thanks for the great video Tracy. How is the autofocus for stills with this lens? I have had issues with Sigma autofocus in the past.
david miller Thanks! Were you using the lens adaptive or native? It’s really solid AF on this one!
@@TracyDavis904 Native on a canon system. I'm glad to hear this one works well on the Sony mirrorless system, I'm doing some research thinking I might pick it up for my a7riii. Now if I could just find it in stock somewhere...
Liked the video but one constructive feedback, though, just show us yourself handling the lens right at the beginning of the video (or take us to the good part right away at 2:46 ) because that is what the title suggests and we all know the specs of this lens. We're interested in its physical appearance and dimensions relative to a human hand ( 3:01 ). 😀 Also, the autofocus of that video camera is inconsistent. I found this link on B&H.
Laurence gr do you watch much CZcams? Rarely does anyone get directly into the topic of the video title, but I feel that I pretty much did. You might already know the specs of the lens, but when I made this video this lens was brand new and no one new. The auto focus on my Sony camera is very consistent actually.
@@TracyDavis904 | I watch CZcams for several hours a day and when it comes to gear, I hate it when the CZcamsr repeats all the things that people have already known about it. Don't get me wrong. I'm just giving my feedback. You don't like that? Sorry.
@@TracyDavis904 | do you want me to delete my feedback?
Laurence gr it’s all good, but I think that most people don’t already know everything about the lens when they watch. That’s why they are watching.
14-24 + 24-35 vs 16-35 sony gm
At 4:50 the entire scene looks smudgy, just as if you have some kind of fat or smudge on the lens, did you accidentally touch the glass?
Eivind Brækkan Engstad good catch! Just fog from going from a 72 degree house to 90 degrees outside.
Thanks for the video. Ps. the music is toooo loud.
holaemili Must be your speakers, it’s a normal volume.
Thanks a lot Tracy!
helpful thanks
Glad it helped
What would be your decision between the Sigma 14-24 and the Sony 16-35GM, if the Price doesn‘t matter? Greets from Germany😊✌🏻
Thomas Hollinger I would have to say the 16-35 GM. Being able to go to 35mm is far better than being able to get down to 14mm in my opinion.
THX😊 What about the Image quality at 16,20,24mm?
Hello Great review. I want to pair this with my Sony apsc mirrorless body. Will I loose a lot of wide angle? Or will still feel wide enough to enjoy the wide?
Another question would be- Is it worth over Sigma primes (except the aperture difference) ?
Depends on which camera you have, but you will lose some of the range. If I were you I would look at the Sony 12 to 24 lens.
