In a previous video I tested the 3 Sigma Primes against each other to see how they compared for portrait photography: • Sigma 16mm vs 30mm vs ...
In this video I conduct a similar test to see how they perform in talking head / interview situations.
I thought it would be useful to see how much you can fit in the frame at distances from 1-3 metres.
I hope it helps and please leave any questions in the comments - oh and give it a thumbs up to help me fight the algorithm! 🙌🏼

Two years later and this is still the best, most beginner friendly, explanation of focal lengths and distancing for youtube video. Thank you so much!
😂😂 thank you 🙌🏻
Stuart is like the only youtuber every APS-C E-mount user needs to hear. Love from India🇮🇳
Exactly, so many tech youtubers are a like "those are the only ten rf-lenses you need" 🤣 Very few people do relatable stuff like him.
Thanks so much Sasi - appreciate the support 🙌🏼 🇮🇳
Agreed! I'm so thankful that he put it all together for us.
I agree , the amount of quality and love he brought on apsc system. Part of the reason I have 16mm and 56mm and they are amazing lenses
Absolutely. He is a gem
As others have stated, we searched thru CZcams for a video such as this one. It wasn't easy! There are many such videos but all fall short in terms of what people are looking for.
I have a podcast channel and was thinking about using a different lens that would fit my needs. Your video was exactly what I was looking for: there was measured distance, you put the lenses thru their use, and it was important for me to see how much background information would appear in the video.
Thank you sir! Well done and thoroughly informational! You deserve more views.
Thanks so much Rene - really appreciate you watching 🙏🏻
I also have a podcast, and your reply literally translates my thoughts! From the difficulty of finding a video like this to the purposes of finding it! Kudos to Stuart for such a helpful video!
so what lense did you end up utilizing my Brazilian Friend? Saludos 🇲🇽@@maestro.mentor
That's how you do a review, less of the technical jargon and more of showing how it actually works, super useful 👌🏽
Loved the comparison edits, thanks for taking the time to do this!
Great video! Exactly what i was looking for to help me with my studio setup! Thank you!
Absolutely AMAZING video! This is exactly what I was searching for. Thank you so so very much!!
This is exactly what I needed! To see how these lenses work on CZcams talking head videos. Thank you!
Glad it came in useful Gavi 🙌🏼
This was the most useful video I found on this, thank you!
Exactly what I needed. Thank you so much!
This is the literally the perfect information I was looking for, much appreciated!!
EXCELLENT video, practical, simple and so easy to follow, GREAT music!! The different focal lens really makes sense to me now which will help me to decide which one to purchase! Thanks much!!!
This was so helpful, thank you so much!
Thank you for this comparison with measurements! This makes it clearer to learn and decide about these lens for different use cases.
This video is absolutely underrated and deserves way more views. Time and time again, I visited this video to get a good comparison of the lens for my Sony A6000, and this video never fails. I'm not sure why this video is so hard to find. It truly is a hidden gem. I got exactly what I needed in order to do videos at home with my Sigma 30mm.
man years later one of the only youtubers explaining everything so in depth...what a legend man thanks
That side by side comparison was really helpful!. Thanks a lot man!!
You’re welcome man 🙌🏻

Thanks Grace! Glad it came in useful 🙏🏻
Your comparison videos are the best especially for these lenses. I love how you show all the shots in one frame easier to compare them all at once.
Thanks Andrew - glad the videos are helping 🙌🏻
Most practical and down to earth comparison I've found so far, thank you!
You’re welcome Gil! 🙌🏻
seen so many videos on youtube for 16mm vs 30mm, your channel comparison videos are by far the best. Thanks
Thanks so much Panjak 🙏🏻
Amazing Review Stuart. Thanks for making this Talking head comparison on these lenses.
Exactly what I was looking for, thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this video. I recently moved to a mirrorless camera and thought it was time for an upgrade. Been twisting myself in knots trying to decide which one to grab. This was great. Love the channel. Gone through quite a few videos and there's a lot of inspiration here. Might try and pick up the 30mm as well. Seriously appreciate it. Easy subscribe.
It's simply the best comparison and I've been looking for it for so long! Thanks Stuart. You made the internet reviews make sense!
Thank you for this video! just starting with content creation and needed this to select a starting lease for talking head videos.
Great job, this is exactly what I needed it
This is a really nice video, well done on making it useful 👍

Just what I was searching for! Thanks for putting your measuring tape to good use.
Since I want to stand up, and wave my arms about, you helped me pick the 30mm at 2m.
The trusty measuring tape 😂 Glad it came in useful 🙌🏻
This was EXACTLY the video I needed to see what focal length I needed to record videos. Thanks a lot!

Awesome, thanks for the feedback! 🙏🏻
This is the exact test I was looking for! thanks for doing it!
Glad you found it! 👍🏻
Thank you! So many of these comparisons don't mention the distance at all. The ones that do only mention it casually. Thank you for the solid demonstration. Subscribed.
Thanks Dylan, much appreciated 🙌🏻

This is very helpful!
This is literally what I have been looking for, and done fantastically! Thanks Man

Very informative, with everything well explained and right on point.
A little side note, your accent and manner add extra points to the excellent content as well.

Thanks so much for the feedback and support Tim 🙌🏻
Appreciate the video. Great comparisons. Really gives a good idea of how each focal length looks at different distances.
Glad it was helpful! 🙌🏻
Thanks so much. I'm a complete beginner to the video world and this was very helpful.
Fantastic explanation ! Keep up the good work. This helped me alot
Thanks Daniel 🙌🏻
The Best! I agree with many comments, after multiple research on lenses, this is hands down the BEST video using compare and contrast teaching and showing the importance on how distance from the lens is the key ingredient when selecting a lens! Amazing video

You’re welcome! 🙌🏻
Wow, this is very well done! Lots of comparison videos out there but they don't include all the details about the environment, settings, etc. I think I'm a new fan! Thanks!
Thanks for watching Jim! 🙌🏻
Excelente video. Es el mejor que he visto como comparación de los lente Sigma.
Muchas gracias por mostrarnos las comparaciones :)
Incredibly helpful-- thank you!!
You're very welcome! 🙌🏻
Thanks for this video, helpful about the 16mm 2-3 meters
Absolutely wonderful video and way of showcasing the lenses! Thank you very much for this.
Thanks for watching! 🙌🏻
This is exactly what I needed for my channel. Subbed!
Thanks so much 🙏🏻
Thanks for this it really helped! Love the background music as well!

Excellent comparison...very helpful!
You sir are killing it with these comparisons.
Thanks for watching 🙌🏻
Perfect! Exactly what I needed!
Cheers Greg 🙌🏻
Exactly the info I was looking for. Thank you!
Glad it came in useful 🙏🏻
Again. Incredibly useful. Thanks!
My pleasure!
Thanks for this! I own the 16mm & 56mm. Was considering the 35mm for some video headshots. The 56mm at two meters gives me that commercial talking headshot look I've been going for. But having the 30mm seems to offer more versatility as well. Great comparison!
Awesome video! Thank you
You're good at explaining only what beginners need. This kind of video is very helpful to me. I wish you good health.
Thanks so much 🙏🏻
Very useful! Can’t thank you enough! 🙏🏽
Stuart, you' ve made the best video on lenses. Many Thanks!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Love the intro man! That's sick
Cheers Nicko - yeah trying to put more effort into the intro's 👍🏻
Great video. Thanks a lot!
2 meters with 30mm is my choice
But most of us like the mic just on the top of the camera so 1 meter with 16mm is still hard to let go
Yes agreed - mic positioning does start to become a factor - keep toying with the idea of getting a Rode Wireless Go kit
Hey Monica, i agree that is the best overall look. I would go with that lens, and invest in a mic stand to hover over your head at that distance for audio quality or just get a lav mic then your problems are solved. I invested in the 16mm as well, now I wish I bought the 30 instead, however, they both have their uses and it might be good to switch them up for different videos or within videos so its not a loss!
Your comment is exactly what I was thinking, as I use my mic on top of the camera...! I think I will go with 16mm!
Agree! Looked really nice
Very helpful! Thank you.
Great! Just the video I needed! Now I can choose the right lens.
Very insightful, please make more content like this my brother!
Thanks Michael, glad it came in useful 🙌🏻
