Review on πŸ“· Sigma 402963 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens for Micro Four Thirds, Black - High-quality Wide-angle Lens for Micro Four Thirds Cameras by Eric Longoria

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This is an AWESOME lens for Micro Four Thirds video

After trying to reduce the depth of field with an Oly 12-40/2.8 and found that my 50/1, 4 Pentax SuperTak was too much, I bought this lens. This is an AWESOME online video maker. Shooting courses, for zoom, YouTube etc. Excellent (reduced) depth of field, much sharper at f/1.6 but still blurs the background well. Maybe, or maybe, the Oly 17/1.2 is the best lens. but it is 3 times more expensive. Is it 3 times better? He is light. Great lens but plastic tube unlike Oly and not weatherproof. But when he's at the teleprompter, everything's fine. If you want professional looking video for your home studio on a Micro 4/3 camera, buy this lens and you're done.

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Unusable features
