Finally a video that tested the sharpness of those two lenses, thanks! I agree, I think the 200-600 is going to be extremely popular.
Thanks so much for watching! Totally agree!
I use a A6000, love it and I use canon lens - Sigma 18-35- 1.8, 150 2.8 macro - but bc the converter there is a time gap to grab the focus and 1 from 3 it is wrong. But as a nature photographer I will buy this 200-600 (I'm not shooting from hide), can't wait to get it!
This is the best video from the herd of KZheadrs that day, because you did some real testing.
Thanks so much, Anthony! Really appreciate it.
Great work man .. thank you
I seen like 7 videos of these lenses by people who were also there. This one is the most thorough and focused. The others were all over the place, flashy, and were done before you knew it, with not much information. Well done sir.
Rico D thank you so much Rico! Really appreciate your feedback and encouragement!
Thanks, some great sport tips that I'm going to try this morning at my son's soccer game. Great comparison for the lenses too 📷 👍
Norman James amazing! How did the soccer game go? Get some good shots?
@@TheSlantedLensYeah the game was close but we did loose 3;1 some of my shots were pretty cool and parents are pleased with the results. thanks again
Any chance of using an a7iii with these lenses and providing the results?
200-600 definitely!
Great portrait lenses for introverts :)
Haha! So true. :)
Tom B hahahahha
Any sony lens would focus great on a9. Try it on a7.
ever tested the sigma 120-300mm f2.8?
I should Wildlife as Pro and I am in for the 200-600mm lens. Why? Because of the versatility and transportability. Especially the transportability is a key point for me when traveling through harsh and tough areas on this planet. Well done, Sony. That will be a winner.
Just got the 200-600 and about to shoot some roos. Thanks for the video 📸
Let us know how it goes!
It's much helpful Thanks in advance Sir !
You are welcome! Thanks for watching!
Just bought the 200 - 600 the only thing to report back on is that my alpha7m2 just does not work well with it, will be updating to the 7m3 asap to utilise the lens full capabilities
You will enjoy shooting with it. Let us know how it goes!
Lmao this guy is james Jay P Morgan I can’t 😂
That is what my parents named me!
I really wish you'd selected a subject that didn't have a mile's worth of atmospheric distortion in front of it. That's like testing sharpness while shooting through a foggy window.
I just picked up a Sony A9 ($1580 on offer up) “I know amazing deal” and I also got a (Used 1 time) basically brand new Sony 200-600 for $1600 cash on OfferUp as well. So for $3100 I got a great bird photography setup!! Let me say that I am impressed with this Lens like you wouldn’t believe. Blows away my Tamron 150-600 G2 which I really liked!!
Glad to hear you are happy with your purchase. Keep on clickin!
Cool video
Hi Slanted Lens community! We'd love to hear your thoughts on the new Sony FE 600mm f/4 and the FE 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSS lenses!
I think Sony will really be a even more tough competitor in the next years because of the increase in lenses and the technology that still is being tweaked. They're only in their 3rd gen with the a7 series.
Great point! We're excited to see how they develop over the years. Do you own or have you used any of their lenses in this series before?
@@TheSlantedLens I do have the Sony a7 mk. i and the Sony 24-240 mm. Great allrounder kit!
Where is the 300mm f2.8 E mount?
looseshoulders Sumali Good point and I absolutely agree. I've wondered that many times in the comments section of various videos. The 300 2.8 is such a staple, perfect for news, sports, etc. With as lightweight as Sony as making these telephoto lenses, the 300 2.8 would probably be super-easy for any photographer to have with them for almost any event. I can only assume that Sony has put emphasis on the big 400 and the big 600 to prepare for the Olympics and, of course, to prove that the company can produce the real big lenses.
@@anthonyc1883 Thank you. Sony already has the 300mm f2.8 A mount; why not adding the E mount? I think it's a fairly safe assumption that more people will buy a 300mm f2.8 than a 600mm f4 or a 400mm f2.8
@@looseshoulderssumali7311 Didn't know about the A mount version. I'm almost brand new to Sony. When I was on staff years ago at a suburban Chicago newspaper chain we had two 300 2.8s at our different offices. Heck, even a couple of our freelancers had their own. It really is a bread-and-butter lens of news and sports shooters.
people gonna go in debt for these
haha exactly!
Nick Didlick...that's a hard name to grow up with. Good thing his parents didn't name him Richard.
Not sure I would want to buy them, but they look fun to rent.
Absolutely! We were so happy to get to play around with them for a couple days!
Does that lens have a camera built-in? I see no camera 📷.
200-600 + gaussian blur in PS and save $11K. Just kidding, but the 200-600 is at least 90% the IQ for < 1/6th the price. MAybe if they release a 600 f/5.6 GM prime or a 500 f/4 GM @ $10K I'll grab one. As light as 600 f/4 is, you still cannot handold it at eye level for very long. A 2.4-2.5kg 500 f/4 much nicer.
The main reason of the 600mm f/4 is the next year's Olympic Games of Tokyo 2020. That is what Yasuyuki Nagata, head of Sony's global Interchangeable Lens business said to dpreview website. Sony cameras and lenses are rarely present among professional photographers in sport events. dSLR cameras still reign in sport photography.
Achilleas Labrou thanks so much for your thoughts!!
The Slanted Lens Thanks for the reply
Why go with the middle initial? Do you like being confused for the investment bank? p.s. really enjoyable video!
DJZ haha! Thanks DJZ!
the A9 looks hilariously small compared to the 600 F4 lol....
Zaber Ansary haha!
Jay P Morgan haha!
Like your profile photo. Haha!
That lens is more expensive than my car.
Yeah, it is pretty pricey! Thanks for watching!
Awww I can't hardly afford a 50mm 1.8 😭
Some day...Keep on clickin!
Look at that tiny, tiny mirror-less camera at the end of that monster 600 f4. Ughhh. Makes me uncomfortable.
XLogic takesome testosterone
Olympic is coming then nothing coming, be safe.....
You be safe as well!
Air quality is terrible. I think clear air would show that these lenses are even better.
Totally agree!
Thank heaven you got rid of your second banana. He so so dull and uninformed. You are a star by yourself, and don’t need a funky partner.
Dustand Dabbit will be upset that you have posted your review before he posts his own 25 vlog review
This video was uploaded at 480p. Huh? What sharpness?
eric4758 Did it stay at 480? When videos are initially uploaded to youtube, they start off for a very short time at lower rez like that. Perhaps you watched it right after it was posted?
@@anthonyc1883 I see what was happening now. The video is playing in 1080p nicely right now.
Hi i am a photographer i would like to be your assistant
Earth is flat
This is a straight attack direction Nikon and Canon. But still there is the question: Why, as a Sports and Wildlife Pro Photographer should I abandon my Pro DSLR body, esspecially with these heavy lenses? I would prefer a Nikon d850 or a 1DX any time for Wildlife, for Sports I would try out the Sony, but it would take something serious to convince me, to use these toy bodies. Esspecially in bad weather.
Fantastic AF, silent shooting, no blackout, 20 images/sec, those are serious points for some of us.
A9 Has weather sealing, mad frame rates and great AF. Carry more batteries. The disdain for the "toy" bodies hints at your insecurity about gear.
even my A7iii held up really well in heavy rain, its very far from being a toy, because its a true workhorse.
Ergonomics is the main reason why the bodies don't feel assuring and others point it as "toy" like.
It took me a while to get used to my Sony A9, but once I did the camera body feels pretty good. I sometimes forget how small the camera body is until I look at my older DSLR camera body. I have no qualms shooting in the rain as I'm not submerging them in puddles and I have other electronic equipment get wet that still work perfectly fine and they are not weather sealed the greatest (if at all).
