- Today we walk around the streets of Melbourne, testing the Mark 1 Sony 70-200 f/2.8, against the Mark 2 Sony version, then the Sigma 70-200 f/2.8 they all performed... It's mainly a question of budget.

I would say that for 95% of people there’s no reason to ever buy the mk2 over the Sigma
buy a used mkii over a new sigma imo
@@imreallydamntiredi’d still pick the sigma 70-200 vs a used gm ii, sorry but the image quality is up there with the gm ii, better OSS on the sigma as well since it’s a newer lens with better advanced technology (2021 vs 2023) and yes i’ve owned both, at 200mm as soon as you half way press the shutter the OSS on the sigma is so still, whereas with the sony i can still notice a bit of a jitter.
two ways to offend North Borders:
are you making a tik tok video?
is that a nikon camera?
Are you making Tik Tok videos with your Nikon bro?
Another one, “I shoot JPEG instead of RAW”
also drive a tesla
11:44 first line on the notes lmaoooooo
Love your videos mate been watching since 2020 keep it up
Ayo, my fav Nikon TikTokker, bro that macro lense slaps.
thx dude i got new something to learn today
needed this this morning
Great video. I’d be curious to hear what you thought after looking at the differences in post, see if there’s any differences you see on a larger screen
Great video! I wish I had one of these lenses
Bro woke up and decided to bully a lens hood (5:15)
keep up with ur tiktoks men! awesome content
OMG OMG i love your tiktoks northborders!
First time I run in to your channel bro as I honestly love how vocal you are about the things that piss you off lmao 🙏🏼😂
9:55 That's some deep thoughts for a lens review;)
keep it up legend!
16:30 the hat guy hit north borders with the classic pinch and roll 😂
any body know hat hes got on that viewfinder and where to get it?
to anyone watching this video, here are a few things he doesn’t mention:
* note those prices were in USD & not AUD. that’s cuz for some reason, the retail price of the sigma & GM2 here in Australia is almost the same (maybe $100 difference unless they’re running a sale/special).
* that’s why I went for the GM2 when I bought mine 2 weeks ago, cuz why pay for a 3rd party glass when a native glass is just the same price & I’d argue better overall.
* Sony also caps 3rd party glass to 15FPS I think. Not a deal breaker unless you have the A1 or A9 series.
* No disrespect to Sigma whatsoever (I have the 85 1.4 & absolutely love the quality), but as someone who owns the 14 GM, 35 GM & 70-200 GM2..the focusing speed & accuracy of all those compared to my 85 Sigma is night & day. You just can’t beat Sony on Sony. Those XD Linear Motors are to die for.
My 2 cents, if you’ve already got the money to pay for the Sigma 70-200, maybe just save up a couple of more months & then blindly go for the Sony 70-200 GM 2. You won’t regret it & you’ll be thanking yourself…so will your non-trigger arm.
I see the SONY 70-200mm F2.8 II at around AU $3199 and the SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN for around $2499 (and as low as $1999 on DCXPERT). AU $700 is a HUGE difference, especially when you factor in how well the Sigma version has been reviewed.
I've been checking lens prices lately, it's simply not true that SONY GM2 price is close to Sigma
Bro exactly what I needed to decide
What setting did u use like metering and focus point thank u
I was waiting for these comparison!
2:50 my exact thoughts every time I'm walking around in public with my camera lol
Your editing is extremely dark, is that 100% on purpose or do you maybe have your monitor brightness super high? I don’t hate the editing, it’s just that I’m a bit surprised by how dark it is. It looks a little like the highlights are the subjects sometimes.
Have you ever had a chance to test out the Tamron 35-150 f2-2.8? I would be curious, what is your opinion on that lens? Rocking a 16-35 GM and the 35-150 Tamron instead of the typical 3 lens combo 16-35 24-70 70-200 for example. I shot a lot of travel content, street photos, events, festivals (mainly video shooter). And I was considering ti get this Sigma 70-200 with the 24-70 lens or the Tamron 35-150, which I am currently testing.
love your tiktoks dude
where to buy eyecup?
Lmfao that discount code. what a legend 😂❤🔥
North Borders: I'm gonna make a video comparing these lenses.
Also North Borders: "What do you want me to say!?"
Your funny AF, just jumped on your video. definitely a like, and subscribe.
I always have issues with my 70-200 gm ii
I don’t use a tripod and when I take photos and zoom in later they’re never sharp, always a little out of focus or just blurry like I was moving. I don’t have the same problem with any other lens. I have the 24-70mm sigma and the 35 1.4gm and those don’t give me that issue.
Might be a bad copy. I have no such issues with my 70-200 GM2
I have the gmii too, and i have no issues either. Its like the god of lenses for me
hi mike, you're like my biggest inspiration and i love your work and your videos. I just wanted to say that i personally prefer, when showing the images, when the image doesnt cover all of the screen. Just a little bit of blank space is enough, just like you did with the shot at 10:52, i think it enables us to see the picture in its entirety and not having to focus on just the center.
hope you see this man, love you
I love this type of video, espically in melboune, best aus city for street
Do you have tickets to the Australian GP? Would be cool if you could experiment with these lenses shooting the cars from a distance.
3:25
Mike: Let me take a photo of a Tesla so i can photoshop it out...
Not first. Love your videos!!
I have the 70-200 f2.8 G Alpha Mount (SAL70200GM). So noticeably slower auto focus and increased weight. I have to use an A Mount to E Mount adapter. BUT it still takes great pictures. And the cost is now like under $750 USD.
Wow! These horizontal tik toks are so cool!!
Just got the Sigma 70-200 last week. Awesome lens and picture quality.
Didnt see the mention that Sony put a Max of 15 shots a seccond when shooting continuous.
For shooting with surtain boddies probably the Sony lens wil be a better choice depending on the budget but recon that when someone has such a camera body they can affort the Sony lens
now,it get max 120FPS if you updata.
I think north just loves the colour blue, bro has it in all edits
Thanks for actually comparing the Sigma against the og G Master. Literally every other review out there only compared it with the mk2 trying to make the sigma look bad and it just seemed weird to me.
I'd really wonder what you'd think about the Tamron 70-180 f2.8 in comparison, as it's even lighter than all of them and cheaper, though it possibly should have some trade-offs to consider.
Excuse me, is this compatible with the Sony x2 teleconverter?
no, but there are rumors that sigma teleconverter will coming soon.
SO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD
i just now realized, Mike must have an insanely buff back carrying those 3 lenses in his camera bag
Even though I’m a canon shooter, that was very interesting mate 👌
I had this decision to make myself recently and decided to go with the GM mark 1 used from mpb.
I mainly just chose it for the ergonomics of the Sony Vs sigma and there's no way I could justify even to myself the asking price for the GM2.
I'm so glad to finally see a comparison video of all three 70-200 available on emount.
Cheers for the shit one
Is MPB good, was thinking of buying a few lenses from it, but wasn't sure!
how could u justify gm m1? it is worse aniway then sigma exept maiby being native . Bad quality compared mark 2 and sigma...
@@forsaken8382there's probably 100+ videos on this channel alone featuring the GM1 and showing thousands of awesome photos so it can't be that bad. It's far cheaper than the Sigma when buying used. It's parfocal so will be significantly better for tracking moving subjects whilst using the zoom. According to Sony website it's fully compatible with the A9 III including 120fps Vs 15fps on the Sigma, making it more future proof and usable for sports. According to DXOMARK the GM2 is only 2 P-Mpix sharper than the GM1 (53 Vs 51) which isn't significant and is nothing a tiny adjustment in lightroom can't even out. You can easily remove the tripod collar, unlike the Sigma. The Sigma has a wired lens hood design that obscures part of the zoom ring, whereas the GM1 has one of the best lens hoods Sony has ever made. My point is there's plenty of reasons to buy the GM1 over the Sigma.
@@david9912gt3rs MPB are great I have spent thousands through them and had on one occasion my lens that I sent to trade in marked up a grade than what I thought it would be , so yeah they have been honest and reliable. They are also the cheapest by quite a bit.
@@forsaken8382 do you have either of the lenses ? Do you know how much I paid ?
I paid £1200 for an excellent condition mark 1
I tried the sigma in a Wex store and did not like the ergonomics of it.
In regards to image quality, well the lens has been serving professionals all around the world extremely well since its release so it's in no way a bad lens.
So cool
Whats this filmed on?
iPhone 15 Pro Max!
12:54 had to crop out that tezla 🤣
Ngl I do street photography and i wish the sigma was out sooner. I prefer the black. More discrete
Let’s goo it’s the best way to start my morning a North Borders video @bmxgrinder
sooo are u a tiktoker or not?
No hes not
I love your tiktoks bro 😂 (joking and I also love the discount code NGL)
The discount Tesla code bruh! Hahahahaha I’m dying
sigma 70-200 or g master mark 1 ?
Have you decided? Same delima.
@@MikeyYuanYhave you decided? Looking between these two also. Leaning more towards the gm M1 mainly because I can get it brand new for the same price as the sigma.
This was a really long TikTok video, weird.... haha just kidding nice vid bruv
I might need to stop watching your vids, my bank account can’t take it 😂 that sigma is crisp
For me I am crossed between the sigma, and the Sony 70-200 f4 macro
Did you used to do graffiti north border?.
how much is it?😢
yo travy is back aswell more travis videso hopefully POVs
You forgot to wish us a sh*t one in your intro. Now im seriously gonna have a sh*t day.
I love my sigma 70-200 f2.8 DG OS - Canon. Its truly an amazing lens and its a bit heavy but i was able to hold it all day without a problem and i am skinny like a stick 🤣
was not expecting the brain food about Sonder to be something I needed to here
Cool video.
I prefer to shoot in jpg with my Nikon to create TikTok videos from the images
I also like bananas
bro, will this be on tiktok 😜
Premium long-form tiktok mate.
Also important to note, A9 and A1 users will not get the full 20/30/120FPS capabilities with the Sigma 70-200 if that’s important
A month ago, your statement was valid, but now it's not. the Sigma 70-200 updata firmware to get full 120FPS.
Good to hear you refuse TikTok!
Mike is my favorite Tik Toker
I absolutely hate the zoom ring. Returned after my first use
❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥 cool
you're my favourite tiktoker!
To be honest. It may sound like our guy is payed by Sigma but MAN, I have sigma art lenses and they are so sharp and the build quality is amazing.
And where's the test?
16:00 Darth Vader?
Do you broke up with Feay?
Has Haydens journey turning christian influenced you?
Oof.... 🔥🔥🔥contents as always
yooooo
A tiktok - Nikon Photographer...
Tik Toker MIKE xD
The Sony MK1 sucked, and still sucks. The MK2 is the top of the line and perfect for anyone with the money or getting paid to be a pro. Everyone else, the Sigma will be perfectly fine!
First? Oh damn, what's good!
The Tiktok chirps were incredible lmao
Not first!
No one asked
Shut up
You shut up
but you look like a tiktoker.... naaa just kidding I'm here Since 2018

When is the video of the ugliest cars coming😂
North Borders, having a shit one on tiktok from now on

I only hate how dark is your editing style, hard to tell what is your subject
I just got mine a couple days ago, I love my sigma! 🫶🏼
