Originally posted by Salagubang The difference in focal length is significant so I would say get them both; they will serve different purposes. If you have to choose, then the AF of the Sigma would be more beneficial to you when used with stills.
Basically, i want to learn portrait photography. Apart from that, i want to shoot some interviews (video). I went through the samples, and did some research and here are my thoughts.
1) takumar is good for video and if i can live with the manual focus, it serves my purpose.
2) Sigma is good when i shoot parties or kids at low light, where focusing manually may be difficult.
Basically, i want to know (considering my requirements) whether i can go for both or in case if they both serve my purpose, which one i should choose.
