Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG DN OS S

Pros: Price, Focal Range, Reproduction Ratio, Minimum Focusing Distance, Stabilization, Construction, Yield, Flare Resistance

Cons: Weight, in the E-Mount version the multipliers are not compatible

Opinion: Versatile, high-quality telephoto zoom that I had the pleasure of pairing with my Sony A7IV. After using it for some time, I can say that I was extremely satisfied with its performance. Even if the weight is a bit high, this is an acceptable compromise for such an important lens. The quality/price ratio is excellent, especially if you consider the decent performance compared to its direct competitors. In addition, this lens is very versatile and fun to use. Personally, I've used it to take birdlife, sports, landscapes, and portrait photos, always getting high-quality results. The rendering of the images is sharp and brilliant at all apertures and focal lengths, with a soft and pleasant blur. In addition, the stabilization is surprisingly effective, allowing you to take sharp photos even handheld at 600mm and 1/100th of a second.

Samyang 75mm f/1.8 AF

Pros: Weight, size, colors, sharpness, rendering, bokeh, microcontrast, customizable key, price.

Cons: Materials, lens hood, button customization & firmware update via Lens Station (to be purchased separately).

Opinion: Great value for money. The bright lens, quite sharp already at full aperture even if in my opinion at f2 it improves a lot. Decent color rendering, good contrast, pleasant soft and surprisingly gradual bokeh, fast autofocus. Very convenient is the customizable Mode 1 / Mode 2 button (via Lens Station also necessary for any firmware update) with which you can choose whether to use the ring for manual focus or to manage the aperture aperture. The materials are not great to the touch, it looks like a toy, but in fact it is the quality that counts and at the proposed price of € 260 it is definitely worth it. In addition, the weight, precisely because of its build quality, is extremely low.
