![]() ![]() Here is photo of the room and the lights. Thanks for your suggestions, much appreciated! But I did run into a issue with the burst shooting mode. Has anyone else had any issues with the horizontal banding using this lens, or the lens with the speed booster, maybe there is an issue. I bought a GH5 mark II a couple of days ago and use the viltrox ef-m2 speed booster with the sigma 18-35 f1.8 and it worked great for video. Short answer: There is really no equivalent to the Sigma 18-35mm/1.8 for MFT, unless you adapt it (optionally with a Speed Booster) to th GH5s. I've tested footage with my Leica 42.5 and Leica 12-60 lenses and got very little, hardly noticable horizontal banding. I could not see the banding in the camera's LCD monitor until I brought it into FCPX. I'm testing in a living room at night with yellow hue household LED lights (obviously there is some flicker with the overhead lights.). It was especially noticeable when shooting slow motion mode (anything under 60fps in UHD 3840x2160 variable frame rate set to 60). I've notice a lot of horizontal banding happening when shooting: Camera settings: Vlog 23.98fps and 180 shutter angle, 422 / 10 bit / ALL-I and shot test shots in 422 /10bit/ long GOP. I'm using a Viltrox speed booster to mount the camera. That is if you even want a back up cam.I've recently purchased the Sigma 18-35 1.7 art lens with my GH5. Unsure the price of the t2i, but I think you could sell both and then get 2 first gen international 12-35 (I would probably get a better focal length on the GH4 for back up shots) for the price of a speedbooster and lens (because you'd have $600 from the sigma lens at that point). I would almost say one option would be to sell that 18-35 and your t2i, and update the t2i to a GH4 with a good kit lens and a cheap Panasonic lens for the GH4. I would not have went sigma if I did not have that camera (to use the lens on both cameras). GH5 + SIGMA 18-35 Chris.Filmmaker 5.26K subscribers Subscribe 1. Īlso, I went the sigma route because I own a Canon 80D. I hate to buy the 12-35, and the 35-100 is a little too zoomed for my taste, although I would love to test it with the dual IBS and see how well you could keep far distance subjects in frame. However, I'm still hoping Panasonic may release a higher focal zoom fixed aperture in the future. ![]() I went the sigma route and if I could test the Panasonic lens, I have a feeling I would prefer it as an overall carry lens. If that combo is out of your price range ($799 for lens and $699 for the Speedbooster) and you can only afford the 12-35, then fear not, it's a great lens. So if you're constrained by budget and can only choose 1 lens, get the Sigma 18-35. The lens I’m suggesting optically looks like the 18-35 which I have as well. ![]() Three the 50-100 has a breathing focus issue. Two you are not shooting that shallow depth of field with the telephoto. He made great use of the 12-35mm lens, but that doesn't make it better than the Sigma 18-35mm. For one the 50-100mm is a 82mm filter size. It just shows you that it's lighting, composition, and much more than just the camera and lens in your hand. I'm sure many more inexperienced or less accomplished filmmakers using the Sigma 18-35 wouldn't be able to do what he did. That video done by Neumann is more a showcase of his skill as a filmmaker and cinematographer. However no matter who you ask, the Sigma 18-35 will be the superior lens in terms of IQ, lowlight, DOF and overall look. The 12-35 is sharp, compact and will net you great footage like the one shown in the Neumann video. I have both the Sigma 18-35 + Speedbooster Ultra Combo and the 12-35mm.
