The sigma art lenses and these aperture 120d mkii have been the biggest level ups I have ever seen in my work. Instant night and day difference between shooting with lower end gear and this. DO NOT sleep on high quality glass and light sources.

I was just sitting here thinking about selling my Sony 24-105 F/4 and getting that new Sigma 24-70 F/2.8 for my A7III. I shot a baby shower this weekend and could’ve used that 2.8 on the Sigma. The Sony is a really good lens, but I might be able to sacrifice the telephoto end for a faster lens with better IQ.

If you get a sigma art lens canon mount you can get the sigma adapter for the Sony, put the Sony in 6k mode and essentially still have that 105mm reach. That’s what I do with my Sony A7riii. I use my canon mount sigma art lenses. I only have one Sony lens (the 16-35 g master). The sigma adapter on the Sony works incredibly well. Autofocus performs like native glass.

Yeah, putting the camera in crop mode has been useful, especially with the 24-105. I'm not opposed to using adapters, but I might as well get the Sigma on E-mount. For only $1,099 new, it almost looks like a no-brainer.

Just to have wait until it gets in stock.
